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.

Why though?

Why enclose the toilet in glass? I think everyone here wants to know, but might be too shy to ask.

    Good question. This was designed by architect and homeowner.

    Ha! Okay - Thank you. Great work on the glass, by the way. It looks very nice.

    I am a designer and my guess would be that the glass was used for sound purposes. The bathroom looks as if it is open to the bedroom, note the floor changes to hardwood. It also creates a visual balance with the shower... it sound is the true reason.
