Remodeling your bathroom is a great way to enrich and improve the space, and if done professionally and in tune with modern trends, it can even increase the value of your home.
If you’re planning to remodel your bathroom, take the time to carefully consider what you want to achieve from the remodel, and check out the following trends for inspiration:
- Turn it into your very own, private spa
Why pay through the nose for a trip to the spa when you can recreate it in your home! Egg shaped tubs and shower stalls in natural materials and colors, while avoiding harsh angles and sharp corners, can help you turn your bathroom into a private spa.
- Bring the outside, in
Growing plants in your bathroom can be a great way to make the space feel soothing and fresh, just be sure to choose the right plants for such an environment.
- Get all Japandi!
Combining Japanese and Scandinavian styles, a Japandi bathroom is both elegant and modern, and with its lines, neutral colors and natural materials, it can make for a truly inviting space.
- You spin me right round, baby, right round!
Have your remodeling contractor play about with round shapes and designs, just be careful not to overdo it. While round shapes can work incredibly well in a bathroom, they are best paired with contrasting angles and lines to prevent it from becoming a bubble room!
- Wood works
While you might not automatically associate wood with bathrooms, when you have wooden accessories that are combined with beautiful tiles, it can be extremely effective. While wood isn’t recommended for floors and walls, you can go to town with it elsewhere, and help create a natural, calming effect.
- Walk right in to the shower
Walk-in showers have never been more popular, and it’s hard to see them falling out of favor any time soon. Just make sure you work with a professional remodeling or construction company, who will take into account the practicality issues surrounding a walk-in shower, such as benches, a steam system, antifog mirrors and a linear drain.
- Tiles are back in fashion
While for some of us, tiles never went out of fashion, it’s probably true to say that they dipped in popularity for a while, but are now firmly back on trend. With so many stunning colors and styles available, homeowners are spoilt for choice when it comes to choosing tiles for a new bathroom. Practical and durable, just be sure to choose tiles with a matt finish for the flooring, otherwise they could become slippery.
- Mix and match styles
When you blend styles and designs for your remodeled bathroom, you can achieve a look that’s truly unique, and really give your neighbors something to talk about! This also gives you the chance to appease other family members who may not all have agreed to the same one design.
- Vessel sink
Nowadays, many more homeowners are opting for stone or porcelain bowls instead of standard sinks, which helps to make it a real feature, instead of a mere necessity. Play around with shapes and sizes and turn it into a focal feature of the bathroom.
- Floating vanities
Floating vanities are a popular element of modern minimalistic bathroom design, and can help turn a cluttered and crowded space, into an elegant and sleek one.
Whatever design you finally plump for when having your bathroom remodeled, make sure that it fulfils your needs and desires by working with an experienced construction firm who can handle every aspect of the project, professionally.
