I am traditionalist and will remain with the English set up, hii mambo ya America iendee mbali sana. Look at this, why did Americans decide to combine the toilet, bathroom and washroom all in one room? Me I(  ) like the British way where the toilet is separate from the bathroom and the washroom area for washing face and hands is also separate! The American decided to merge these critical rooms in one bay hence no one in the family can sh*t while the other one is showering and the third guy washing his face!!!! Then again the American decided to merdge the kitchen with the Sitting room, eti open kitchen (shiet)...if you are frying Omena all the visitors clothes will be smelling Burukenge by the time dinner is served!!! Wapi @a4archetecture??? Portfolio: Sold
You know you've made it when you get a parking space for your yatcht.

Wapi @a4archetecture??? That is why you need a house with 3 bathrooms. Regarding the open plan kitchen that's all the rage nowadays, i don't like the idea of me relaxing to watch news while the house girl is busy cooking ugali and washing viombo at the other end.

Even in the ensuite bathrooms, you really don't want to see your wife taking a dump as you brush your teeth. You have to wait amalize kwanza.

Its a good way to embarrass her to haul ass back to her husband/house or parents. Seriously though, a case of blue balls when there is no money for a lodging (na mtu amekwamilia hapo), embarrassment or shame will be relegated to the back seat.

That is why the market for air freshners has gone up. There are even those that are automatic and can sense when someone walks into the bathroom and release a burst of spray.
