When it comes time to remodel your home, the bathroom might not be at the top of your list. Let’s take a moment to think about it. The bathroom isn’t just a place to clean up, it can also be a place to take a break from a busy day. If this is the case, your bathroom will need to reflect the peace and tranquility you desire with its well-coordinated elements.
Don’t worry, we’re not talking about budget-friendly luxury interiors. We’re just sharing some amazing ideas for your next bathroom renovation project.
Suspended cabinets
A floating vanity or cabinet under the sink is a great way to get rid of all the mess in your bathroom and make it look even more stylish. Instead of stacking cupboards from end to end, use a cabinet that hangs from under the sink to clean up the floor space.
Refurbished old bathroom cabinets
If you’re looking to spruce up your bathroom, you don’t have to break the bank to replace old cabinets. Instead, you can give your existing ones a makeover with some paint on the door and base. Refinish the doors with some wood-like laminates and watch your boring old bathroom turn into something cool and trendy.
Modern shower panels
Swap out your old shower fitting for a modern, sleek shower panel. Not only will it make your morning shower more enjoyable, but it’ll also look great. Check out shower panels with different functions so you can get as complicated as you want. Or, just swap out your old shower head for a big sunflower style or a classic hand-held shower head.
Upgrade your bathroom fittings
Over time, bathroom fittings start to tarnish and lose their shine. You can easily and cost-effectively give your washroom a makeover by updating the hardware – your faucet, towel rail, cabinet knob, toilet paper holder, drawer handle, etc. Match the metallic accents of the fittings to those of the lighting fixtures to create a cohesive look.
Hidden cistern toilets
Toilets with built-in flush tanks are a popular choice in modern bathrooms. Replacing your old toilet tank or adding a faux wall to hide it is a much more cost-effective option than completely remodelling your entire bathroom. A low-flow tank can also help conserve water.
Play with lighting
Bathrooms without adequate natural light aren’t as common as you might think. You can enhance your washroom’s ambience with strategically placed LED lighting that’s also suitable for your shaving and makeup application needs. Upgrade your bathroom with hidden lighting or backlit mirrors. More expensive fixtures can create an interesting effect of light and shadows in a small space, adding to the drama you’re after.
Install floating shelves
Floating shelves can be used for a variety of purposes and, when combined with other decor elements (such as cabinets, vanity or mirror), are aesthetically pleasing and interesting. They can stand alone or be installed at different heights in parallel. If placed correctly, floating shelves can be decorative. However, open shelving must be kept clean and tidy in order to be aesthetically pleasing.
