Plus there is a chance to win not one, but two fantastic king size beds from Silentnight! (pg 118).
Another key area of the home is the bathroom; one of those rooms all of us spend a lot of time in, and one you need to feel calm and relaxed in after a hard days work. Take a look at our feature ‘The Evolution of the Bathroom’ (pg 74), which explains all you need to know about water safety, comfort, saving water, plus shower and bathroom suite styles for 2010.
