Creating Your Ideal Bathroom
It should be practical, easy to clean and safe. Renovating a bathroom can be time-consuming and expensive so it’s a good idea to shop around for deals on tiles and sanitary ware which will help keep the cost down.
Even if your bathroom is small it doesn't mean you can't make it a beautiful space to relax. Just check out our tips to create your ideal space.
Think About The Layout:
Plumbing considerations will impact where you place showers and baths, but you also need to think how best to use the space you have to work with. Changing the plumbing may add to the cost of your renovation, but it could improve the layout, for instance creating space for the inclusion of both a bath and shower. A wet-area, is usually better furthest away from the main traffic area, with toilets and vanity units closest to the door.
Be Careful With Lighting
You will need to think about both ambient and task lighting. Use the warmest light possible, for example choosing 2700K LEDs for bathrooms designs are the closest you can get to natural daylight. For make-up install a makeup mirror with a built-in light and for lighting over a bath, using a dimmer creates an ambient atmosphere in your relaxing haven.
Storage Space
Vanity units and towel rails will provide you with extra storage space. Recessed shelves in showers can be used for your shampoo, conditioner and shower gel and a shelf above a toilet could be useful to store toilet rolls or to place decorative items to add that finishing touch.
