Color and Style in Bathroom Furnishing and Decoration is a rare, influential 1929 trade catalog from the Standard Sanitary Manufacturing Company, notable for being one of the first books to treat the bathroom as a subject of interior design, showcasing colored fixtures in elaborate, themed rooms with detailed color illustrations. It features vibrant, often over-the-top, examples of bathrooms with fixtures in colors like T'ang Red, Ming Green, and Royal Copenhagen Blue, demonstrating how to coordinate them with wall, floor, and furniture colors. The book is a significant historical document for interior design, plumbing, and the history of color in home furnishings.
