New, high-profile developments around the country—like Brickell Village in Miami and New York’s 50 West Street—are being designed with spaces that look more like lavish sanctuaries than commodes. With rain showers, oversized soaking tubs and imported marble finishes, it’s like taking a trip to the spa without ever leaving home.
