'Form versus Function'

Martin Rowell, UK Channel Manager for Architects and Designers, was one of this year's seminar presenters. His presentation 'Form versus Function' posed the question: 'has the balance between form and function tilted towards form when designing hotel bathrooms?' and included the Top 10 hotel bedroom and bathroom dislikes of hotel guests.
