It can be pretty hard to freshen up in your shower, when mold surrounds you in the grout between your tiles, and there’s a constant drip from the tap over the sink. If your bathroom space is more dire than delightful, maybe it’s time to think about a renovation project, and updating the look. When the room you wash in is clean and fresh, so shall you be. The presentation of your bathroom will be key to how clean you feel each morning, and impact the mood you leave your home in. So, don’t just close the door and ignore; make plans to spruce it up today. The following are some ideas and inspiration for those who need to enliven their tired bathroom with a bit of sleek style.
Your Surroundings
There’s nothing worse than dirty grout that won’t get clean, no matter how many times you try and scrub it. If this is the case in your bathroom, then perhaps it’s time to rethink those 40-year-old original tiles covering the floor and walls. It’s time to consider if you want a light and airy ambience in the room, if so; you can’t go wrong with a crisp white tile (although it’s worth remembering that every bit of dirt will show up on them). You can look into high end shower doors and treat the space to something with a designer edge, and that will reflect all the light bouncing off those new tiles.With plain tiles adorning the walls, it gives you the chance to lay an interesting feature-floor. Think about if you want it to be sleek, rustic, or classic under your feet as you brush your teeth. When it comes to looking into flooring; don’t forget to bear in mind how functional they have to be, a deep pile carpet will get moldy pretty quickly. There’s always the option to match the tiling on your floor to those on the wall; this will provide a seamless and calm finish.
Your Tub
The bathtub can often be the star of the show, so if you have space for one; it’s worth investing wisely. Think about the overall look you want in your bathroom when you’re choosing a style and a shape. If you have a period property, consider a claw-footed bath, or if you’re feeling fancy, a textured copper tub; perfect for dropping in your luxury suds.Maybe you’re after an uber-modern look to your bathtime haven; consider whether you’d prefer smooth curved edges or sleek and sharp angles when it comes to soaking up the suds. It’s worth looking around a showroom so that you can work out dimensions, style, and finishes; beware of pushy sales team members though, or you’ll be doing a whole house renovation before you know it!
