When designing a bathroom at home, we face the dilemma of opting for the installation of either a shower or a bathtub. In both cases, design plays an important role, but this role is even bigger as far as functionality, space availability, and the necessary requirements are concerned. Fitting out a large bathroom is not the same as doing a small one, and furthermore, the fact that the bathroom is used for just a person is far different from a whole family's way of using it.

If we take all these features into account, we can find both advantages and disadvantages regarding the installation of a shower or a bathtub, which must be taken into consideration before making the final decision.
