When the home builders met in Orlando, Fla., in January, their show was all about function (April, pg. 39) . The Kitchen & Bath Industry Show , on the contrary, is all about pizzazz.

Try one out for yourself at one of CP Hart’s über- cool London bathroom showrooms , where the latest models are installed in the customer toilets. Don’t be shy. Bells-and-whistles loos are just one of the new-tech ideas at a burgeoning band of London bathroom specialists , where the average starting spend on a makeover is £8,000 to £10,000. “This might buy you a freestanding bath , separate shower/wet area and screen, WC, basin, vanity unit, mirror, tiling, and heating — but these are only very rough guidelines,” says Ripples, another leading London outfit , founded by Roger and Sandra Kyme in 1988, with four branches — in NW3 (020 7449 9594),  Chelsea (020 7373 3668), Richmond (020 3166 4008) and Reigate (01737 226450).
