My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Bench Question

11 years ago
Beautiful bath and I was just wondering what was supporting the bench. Love the look but can it hold weight? Are there steel rods?

    Hi ,
    Love the look of this shower. We are building a new home and would like to incorporate this as our daughters shower.
    At the risk of repeating the same question, it would really help us out , if someone from the design team could answer this question:
    What are the engineering /technical aspects of building a floating bench like this one?
    Are there hidden brackets beneath the bench supporting it ?
    What is the base of the bench upon which the stone is laid? And how is it that the bench appears lighted from below ? Is there concealed lighting and if so how is it concealed ?
    Please, please answer this.
    Thank you in advance for your time.

    No answer so far. That's pathetic.
