Function first! Make sure that the shower head is adjustable and can also be hand held to accommodate tall and not-so-tall members of the family.
Using the same color tiles (like Travetine) in different sizes, shapes and finishes provides your bathroom with a level of detail that makes it special.
When using wood in the bathroom, be sure it is painted or sealed well against moisture.
Regardless of whether you are planning to keep your home for the long run or just a few years it is important to have a perfectly functional kitchen for yourself not for the future buyer.
