For the past 20 years, Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles has been celebrating the best baths in the city with our annual Bath Contest issue, which always brings in a slew of dazzling entries. And this year, amid the flurry of more entries than ever, our expert judges picked three favorites that made the most of the modern bathroom, with magnificent design innovations and chic decorative elements—from graphic tile and personal touches to antique finds and crystal chandeliers that glimmer in the sun. Diverse, complex and elegant, each reflects the different design directions Atlantans love: contemporary conveniences coupled with a never-failing reverence for classical principles. Most importantly, sound architecture, executed with practicality and propriety, simplifies these spaces (all three were renovations), to create baths that are soothing places to retreat, whether for a morning ritual or to unwind at the end of the day. More than ever, we see our city’s baths presenting good design without compromise; each winner exudes enduring quality and timeless design that will serve its homeowners for years to come.
