Get Personal
If you have the space, an armchair looks great in a bathroom and adds a real feeling of luxury. Don’t be afraid of adding artwork or photography to your bathroom to add an eclectic feel.
Think About Colour
Particularly in small spaces, colour coordination is key to tying the space together visually.
You can tie a colour theme in using towels and bathroom products to really finish off the look. Choose your accessories carefully and have fun with them – old fashioned glass bottles look beautiful when filled up with bubble bath.Don’t be afraid to add some personality to your bathroom.
Don’t neglect your olfactory glands! Think about scent, adding scented candles not only looks beautiful but it will add atmosphere to the space.
Let There be Light
If your bathroom is lacking in natural light you can do a little cheating by adding a beautiful mirror. To add opulence, try a gold gilded mirror or if your bathroom is minimal add a large clean lined one to reflect the light and add to the illusion of space.
When considering your lighting features, make sure to opt for an even light – it’s best for tasks like applying make-up.
Consider Storage
There are all sorts of clever storage options for a bathroom. If your working with a small space, it’s best to keep your clutter hidden away.
Utilise lesser though of spaces like above the door or behind the bath. A good bathroom installer will be able to offer you ideas based on the size of your room.
White Never Goes Out of Style
When in doubt choose white on white, it’s timeless and you can always add colour with accessories. White is always fashionable and looks clean and fresh.
Consider your fittings
Do not scrimp on the fittings. Why not treat yourself to a bit of luxury? If you have the budget, features like a rainfall shower are worth the investment – imagine waking up to that!
Do a little research around what type of shower, bath and taps you want they are most important. With the water charges coming in very shortly, a new state of the art shower can actually save you money in the long term.
