;6. Plan your fixture selection to suit the space. A basic master bathroom needs hot and cold water, a sink, a shower and a toilet. If space in your en suite bathroom is tight, it makes sense to choose fixtures that will make it feel bigger. By choosing a wall-mounted toilet and vanity instead of floor-mounted ones, you will maximize floor space. Then consider installing faucets on the wall rather than the sink and a shower head on the ceiling rather than on the wall to keep surfaces clutter-free. A frameless glass shower screen is the perfect finishing touch, since this will provide an unimpeded view through the bathroom, making the room feel more spacious.
;1. Assess how much space you have. There are no fixed rules regarding how big a master bathroom should be, but the latest trends suggest that they are getting bigger and more luxurious. These new luxury en suites, which often occupy an entire room adjoining the bedroom, are being designed as sumptuous retreats for more than one person to use at a time. They often boast double walk-in showers, two sinks, partitioned areas for a toilet and maybe even a bidet, dressing areas, and somewhere to sit and chat. Many also feature entertainment facilities, such as televisions and sound systems. Potential cost: A luxury en suite bathroom can cost $30,000 to $40,000.Size: It can be the size of a small bedroom, about 34 square feet or larger.

Abrasion resistance: A tile’s ability to withstand foot traffic and friction. The Porcelain Enamel Institute’s abrasion scale goes from 0 (not recommended for floors) to 5 (heavy commercial) to help you determine how well a tile will wear. Absorption: The amount of moisture a tile absorbs, expressed as a percentage. Vitrified porcelain rates low (less than 0.5 percent), semivitrified tiles absorb 3 to 6 percent, and standard glazed wall tiles absorb 10 to 20 percent. This figure dictates where tiles should be used and affects their durability with temperature fluctuations.
