6 Great Bathroom Design Ideas
20 Jan
When you are thinking of revamping your home, the bathroom is a great place to start. The bathroom is one of the most important rooms in the house, as it is used regularly not only by residents but also visitors. Many people are looking to redesign their bathroom this Autumn, and thankfully, there are many design ideas to explore for inspiration.
1.Create space
If you are looking for a new bathroom suite, you should consider finding ways to create more space. Bathrooms are often small but with clever design you can make your bathroom seem spacious. Use wall cabinets to free up space on the floor. These can house shelves for towels and toiletries. Add a large mirror to add to the feeling of space as reflections can help to make the room feel larger and brighter.
2. Clever lighting
Good lighting options can lift a room and this is especially important in a small bathroom. Mirrors can be used strategically to reflect light, while mirroring a whole wall is also an idea for adding perceived space to smaller rooms. Use bright lights for more comfortable bathroom use, while spotlights and floor lighting can create more luxury and flattering lighting.
3. Flooring options
Floors are important in bathrooms as these can add to the elegance of a room. Think about the type of flooring solution you like, whether that is marble finish, wooden planks or under-floor heating. You might like a luxurious rug for sinking your feet into after a bath.
A fresh bathroom suite can add new life to an old bathroom. Many people opt for white but you could experiment with a different colour. The shower is an essential piece of kit for any bathroom suite and you could consider a double shower for more spacious rooms. Rainforest shower heads offer a pleasant waterfall, while another popular choice is a wet room style shower without any curtain or screen.
5. Luxury accessories
Your accessories can add colour and luxury, so while the main elements might be white and chrome, you could shake it up with bright hues for towels, toothbrush holders and flannels. Choose colours to complement the walls or floor and add some personality to the smallest room in the house many design ideas to explore for inspiration. You could also consider different textures, such as velvet and leather for make-up bags and cosmetic pots sitting in the cabinets.
6. Vintage style
One highly popular choice for modern bathrooms is a vintage look. Adding a touch of retro style to your bathroom can also help to ramp up the elegance. Look at different styles of taps or some ornate tiles. This can work especially well in a house that has some vintage furniture, fittings or wallpaper. Consider looking at magazines or historical houses to get inspiration for vintage design. The bathroom works well for vintage looks as this room can be a little decadent, especially with the old-fashioned roll-top baths that are so popular.
Try being eclectic in style in the bathroom and mix and match different design aspects to create something unique.
