Statement baths are often bought by people who will never lie in them: hotel developers, spa operators and interior designers specifying for clients. This illustrative sculpted bath, its ends curving upwards around a push-button outlet, is the kind of bath placed centre stage in a hotel or spa suite.
For those specifiers the decision is part aesthetic and part logistics. The silhouette has to work from the doorway and from the bed. The finish has to cope with daily housekeeping, where matte and gloss surfaces wear in different ways. The length has to suit a room plan drawn months earlier, often with many identical rooms behind it.

What you can configure
Two whites sit side by side in the demo, gloss white and matte white, alongside matte black and stone grey. The difference between the whites is subtle in a photograph and obvious in person, so they deserve a direct comparison. Length is 1600 or 1800 mm, a wide step that changes the room plan. It shows in the summary, while the image follows colour only.

Why a configurator suits baths
Hospitality orders are rarely single units. A hotel refurbishment might take the same bath in one finish for every suite, with a shorter length where rooms are tighter. That order is quoted rather than bought, with lead times, delivery phasing and installation all negotiated. A configurator ending in a structured quote request suits that process far better than a basket.
Specifiers also need documents. Once a bath is configured, the same data can produce a specification sheet with dimensions, finish code and outlet type, ready to drop into an FF&E schedule. The supplier's sales team stops rewriting the same details by hand for every enquiry, and specifiers get a document they can file without retyping.
Then there is the gloss and matte question. Matte white reads calm and soft, gloss crisp and reflective, and buyers often want both in front of them before choosing. Six finishes and two lengths is a small range, but every combination in it is a deliberate design choice rather than a default.
How a production version would be built
For a sculpted shape I would build from a 3D model even if the configurator itself stays image-based. Rendering every finish from the same model keeps the curves identical. It also allows views a photographer would struggle to light, such as a low angle along the rising ends. The supplier provides finish codes, both lengths with full dimensions, outlet and waste details, and lead times. The quote form can collect project details such as room count and delivery phases. My 3D product visualisation work covers how those renders are produced.
Build sheet for this range
- Colours in the full range: 6 (4 shown in this demo)
- Length choices: 2
- Combinations to support: 6 × 2 = 12
- Images for one photograph per combination at 3 angles: 36
- Images if lengths can be shown as separate layers, at 3 angles: 24
- Data each of the 12 combinations needs: a SKU or variant ID, price, stock or lead time, and any dimensions or specification that change
Questions about bath configurators
Can a hotel order different lengths for different room types in one quote?
Yes. The quote request can hold several configured lines, each with its own finish, length and quantity, plus a room type label. The supplier receives one structured enquiry for the whole project instead of a spreadsheet attached to an email. Lines can be revised after submission if the room schedule changes.
Can the configurator produce a specification sheet for an FF&E schedule?
It can generate a PDF from the configured product, with images, dimensions, finish code, outlet type and lead time laid out to your template. Designers download it or receive it by email. Because it is generated from product data, a corrected dimension updates every future sheet automatically.
How do you show the difference between gloss white and matte white?
With lighting that reveals sheen. I add a raking-light close-up of the rim for each white, where gloss shows a sharp highlight and matte a soft gradient. Side by side, the difference is clear even on a phone. For final sign-off on a large order, physical samples remain the right step.
Does the configurator need to connect to our CRM?
It does not have to, but for project sales it usually should. Configured quotes can arrive as deals or leads with the build attached, so nothing is retyped. I integrate configurators with CRM and ERP systems, and my Praxis Digital 3D case study shows the kind of platform I have built before.
