Few things are more relaxing than a nice soak in the tub, but there's something really special about a bathtub that really stands out. Over on Homes and Hues, we rounded up twelve of the most beautiful tubs we could find.

Whether you like futuristic, rustic or modern styles of home decor, you're pretty much guaranteed to see something you wish you could have in your dream home. Don't believe me? Find out for yourself at Homes and Hues: 12 Beautiful Bathtubs Perfect for Relaxing.


The Winged House is Seriously Sharp

With sweeping and unexpected lines throughout the home, the Winged House is a perfect design for modern Singapore. Built on a triangle-shaped plot of land around tall palm trees already on the property, the oddly-shaped home features a jutting roof inspired by the traditional Minangkabau roof style that is popular in Malay architecture.

The end result of the design by  K2LD Architects is a home that's totally modern while still honoring its Singaporean roots.

Trees On Your Sofa? Why Not?

Relaxing on a park bench under a tree is nice, but if you get home when it's already dark, you might not want to head over to the park and lay down on a bench (and even if you did, they might already be taken by other people laying down). Instead, you can always grab the Borghese by designer Noe Duchaufour Lawrance and manufacturer La Chance, which brings a little touch of nature into your home.

Bubbly People Will Love the Bubble Tank

No, that fish tank isn't spilling off the book shelf, that's just the way the clever blown glass design looks. Because the Bubble Tank, by Psalt Design, is designed to look like it is dripping off the surface where it is set, it only takes up about half the space that it looks like it should. 

Even if you don't really think fish bowls are good for fish, it still can be a cool home accessory to use as a terrarium or even just a storage bowl.

The Bucketlight Provides Light & Greenery

Indoor plants are great when it comes to adding some color and fresh air into a room, but they can also take up a lot of space. If you're looking to take advantage of the benefits of fresh plants without sacrificing floor room, then Dutch designer Roderick Vos  has you covered with these great Bucketlights. 

Each light features two pots fitted with seperate (thus waterproofed) LED lights and a reinforced electrical cord that allows it to all be connected to the roof, saving floor space and lighting up the room all at once.
