When it comes to home renovations, bathrooms are almost always overlooked. This is understandable, as many homeowners tend to believe that they are less important in the grand scheme of a full home design. While bathrooms may be smaller in size and less important than other home renovation improvements, they can still make or break a home and its overall look. In some cases, an old bathroom can be the thing that lies in between someone wanting to buy your home and someone passing on the offer altogether. If you are looking to modernize your bathroom with a bathroom renovation and need helpful advice, let our team at Andre Kitchen and Bath help.
Place The Toilet Properly
This sounds like quite the odd tip, but toilet placement can be vital in making sure a bathroom looks its most elegant. When you place the toilet so that a person entering the bathroom sees it right away, this can be off putting and make for an unorganized, messy bathroom design. Change the way this looks and ensure that your toilet is placed in a good area, generally out of sight from the point where your visitors walk into the area.
Lighter Bathroom Fixtures
Bathrooms are a place where cleanliness is of utmost importance. When you install dark coloured bathroom appliances, things can start to look cluttered and messy. To ensure that a bathroom looks pristine, always be sure to install lighter coloured fixtures. A white bath, shower and sink all work to make a bathroom look clean and bright, making people entering the bathroom feel more comfortable and welcome. Lighter colours also, in general, push to make a bathroom style look very modern and new.
Utilize Mirrors
When your bathroom space is small and you need to find a cheap, easy way to make this space look bigger, mirrors are almost always your best bet. When in doubt, mirrors can make a place look twice as big as it actually is! Opening up this area and making it look larger really makes this space feel more modern and stylized. Whether it is a large vanity mirror, a full body mirror or a mirrored panel plastered to the wall, each option helps to make this area look a little more spacious (and luxurious!).
Match Flooring, Shower Tiles and Fixtures
Another reason why white fixtures are so great is because they will often match with nearly every colour you implement into your bathroom. Even so, making sure that every design aspect of your bathroom matches in some way is integral if you want to make this space look modern. If you are going with a warmer colour palette, full of oranges, yellows, browns and coppers, stick to that theme. Avoid implementing bright, neon colours or dark colours. If you are aiming for a more modern, simplistic look, go with neutral colours like black and white, avoiding any saturated colour altogether. When it comes down to it, the colours you choose for your bathroom will all depend on the mood you wish to make people feel when they enter this space.
