When we began designing the Loft, we took a trip
to Mexico and got inspired to incorporate a hot tub into our design. Staying
true to the open concept, we decided to make it the focal point of the master
suite. We went with a Jacuzzi two-person, chroma therapy soaking tub. Ken surrounded the tub with reclaimed timbers and
finished them off with hand-forged steel. The results were stunning.

In order to fill up the tub, Ken got creative. He fabricated
a water hose that comes from the ceiling, allowing the water to fall into the
tub. Since the water had to fall 10 feet, water would splash outside of the
tub. After several attempts, he created a laminar water nozzle that would align
the molecules just perfectly so that the water falls into the tub and disperses
within it so that there is no splashing. The water is turned on by the hand wheels on the wall between the tub and the steam shower.

This is my favorite architectural in the Loft, it is such a
beautiful sight to see every morning.
