Thanks for all the replies, guys!

I am not actually building the house--just designing it for a project (even though I would LOVE to build it someday…)

After reading your replies, it might be easiest to stick with a normal bathtub… I was thinking that it would be really cool to have a weird-shaped bathtub, but it would probably be cheaper to go with a normal one.

Thanks for the help!

Hello everyone!!

This is my first post on this forum! I am a high school student, and for an english project, I get to design a tiny house on a small budget down to the last detail. Being the research and detail snob that I am, I am getting SO into it. I've been planning down to the last detail, and in my extensive research, have decided on a cob house. The question I have today is about bathtubs. Obviously, most cob houses have curved walls, and most bathtubs are made to fit a straight wall. My question is, how can a plan out a low-budget, costume-shaped bathtub that would actually be comfortable to sit in, and would hold water? Could I build it out of the cob with an extra protection layer over it? Concrete? Something else entirely?

Does anyone know what the bathtub in this link is made of/how it works?
