How the functional Aussie bathroom has transformed to become the trendiest room in the house - and how you can create your very own sanctuary
An increasing number of Australians are dumping their 'outback outhouses' and designing bathrooms that act as a modern sanctuary, and there are some simple ways you can do the same. Raine and Horne Executive Chairman Angus Raine told Daily Mail Australia bathrooms are now treated as personal day spas and additions to the character of a home, instead of just something that had to be there. 'The shift in the modern-day approach to bathrooms can be seen in their size,' Mr Raine said. 'Also, whereas 20 or 30 years ago bathrooms were very plain, with white tiles and no styling, nowadays bathrooms are considered as another 'statement' room in the house, with a lot of effort put into the design of the room.' However, bathroom upgrades don't have to break the bank, with a number of options available for people of all income brackets.

Huge demons stalking the streets, eerie sculptures and a giant flame-throwing organ: The festival of DARKNESS that's turning Tasmania into a 'twisted art playground'
The Museum of Old and New Art's winter festival, Dark Mofo has asked attendees to bring earplugs and 'get weirder' as it promises to bring Hobart to life over the 10-day-long event. A mixture of art installations and live performances, feasts and music will be available at various points in the city, with one of the most impressive being the Fire Organ, which creates rhythms with its exploding flamethrowers. Huge hand-carved Balinese ogoh-ogoh demons will see a return this year before they are set alight, along with the written down fears of attendees, on the final night of the event. Organisers are expecting about 150,000 people to attend the 10-day schedule of events which more than 250 Australian and international artists have contributed to.

THE BEST OF THE WEB - DIGESTED
It's just a flesh wound! Extraordinary pictures show the moment a plucky seal escaped the jaws of a great white shark - but not before having a chunk torn out
British photographer Dan Callister, 39, captured the incredible moment a great white shark attempted to catch the seal off the coast of South Africa (main), leaping up at the animal from below the waves, snapping at its tail. The nimble seal pup managed to escape being eaten, but was left with a horrifying hole in its back after the encounter (inset). The attacked happened close to Seal Island, which is home to hundreds of the animals, and dozens of sharks that hunt them.
