The Ladybird Bathtub

Ladybird Bathtub
The Ladybird Bathtub

The compact and very much multi-function Ladybird is a freestanding Vanity and Bath unit, aimed at apartment and loft-style living where space is at a premium.

The vanity/lid of the Ladybird can be removed to reveal a tub within. The tub is a ‘sit’ style bath which is smaller in size than a typical bathtub and is an intimate space that holds less water. The unit also subtly integrates a step for ease of access into the bath, which retracts when not in use and opens out with a simple ‘push’ action when required.

This concept design is by Australia-based industrial design graduate Coco Reynolds.

    Ok so where can I buy one for my tiny house

    1. I’m not sure you can. When I wrote about it here it was just a concept design. I don’t think it ever went into production sadly.

    Thanks For This Post

  3. Is this tub comfortable for taking a proper bath? I am an interior decorator in Chandigarh and one of my clients has requested me to get something compact and stylish that could be used as a bathing space..

    I am thinking of suggesting something like this.. what do you say???

    1. Hi,
      When I posted this article the bathtub was only a concept design so I am not sure if it is actually available to purchase. You would need to check the designers website which I have linked to in the post. However it appears to be inspired by the deep Japanese deep soaking baths so I’d imagine it would be very comfortable. I hope that helps but if in doubt perhaps visit a showroom that stocks Japanese style bathtubs and give one a test.

      1. Thanks for your help Stacey… I found some options on tradeindia … lets see how it works out…
