bathroom styles

when i was younger i remember being jealous of my friend who had the fuzzy seat cover for their toilet and the matching fuzzy rug that fit perfectly around the toilet, but now when i look back at that i wonder what the point of those things were. you never sit on the top of the toilet, so why does it need to be comfortable? there are many weird fads that come in and out of style for the bathroom. for example carpet in the bathroom, pink bathtubs, and floral tiles. thankfully bathrooms these days have evolved from those God awful trends. so whats next for the bathroom, we've gone through the everything pink, everything having crown molding and the terrible idea of carpet phases. now we are in the modern times of everything looking sleek, shinny, and perfect. we like the bathroom to be calming but very organized and put together. the bathroom seems like the least likely place for technology, but i see that is wear we are headed. we already have the speakers in the shower, and the fancy toilets have been around in Japan for a long time. in public bathrooms we have automatic everything which we find very helpful. i see our future being TV's in the bathroom, bathtubs that draw your bath for you, high tech temperature settings for the shower, hopefully technology that will help us save water at the sink. i hope to learn more about the past of the bathroom and how the styles have evolved.
