This collection of four tone-on-tone motifs can be applied directly to a bathtub’s exterior surface, turning an often understated fixture into the focal point of the room. From the illusion of a wave to the expressive rhythm of calligraphy, these adhesive motifs are at once fun and forward-thinking in the vein of bathroom design. www.wetstyle.ca
