Ways to Create a Statement Bathroom!

Every person has their personal favourite room in the house, the one that makes the difference between falling in love with a home or living with a nagging feeling of disappointment. For many, that room is the bathroom.It is easy to understand - the bathroom is a private sanctuary, where no matter the size of the family, the is an escape to peace and solitude. Whether simply to spend a few minutes reading, or for a full hour-long soak in the tub, the bathroom is personal, so show your imagination and flair when creating your own watery sanctum.

bathtub

The bathtub is the centre of bathroom design - after all, it is prominent enough to have the room named after it! Choosing the perfect bathtub is a battle between luxury and practicality. Ensure it is large enough to fit your largest family member comfortably and then go for it! Create a statement of pure indulgence with a free standing roll top bath, be bold and bright with a mirrored tub or make a focal piece with a sunken shower-bath.

mirror

Mirrors add so much to a bathroom, creating an illusion of additional space in smaller environs and magnifying the light of large rooms. Bathroom mirrors come in as many varieties as the imagination allows, from coloured tiled reflections to backlit floating mirrors. Remember, it is always good to have a mirror above the basin for practical use.

Lighting

Many bathrooms come with a dingy ceiling light. Don't put up with substandard illumination - enhance the natural light with vibrant modern lighting. LED lighting offers a brilliant shine with long-lasting environmentally-friendly technology and is customisable, with multi-LED light clusters available in many configurations. Do not relegate bathroom lighting to the ceiling either - consider some of the very fashionable wall lights available.

wallpaper

The right wall covering for your bathroom turns a plain space into a conversation with all who see it. Shop around and find something which reflects your personality. Marbled wallpaper is very fashionable in bathrooms, with its flowing design complementing a room centred around water, and geometric designs bring a bold statement without being over-fussy.

basin

It is so easy to match the basin to your bath, but if your style demands something more individual then don't be frightened to eschew robotic thinking and do what feels right. Specialised crafters that work with glass or ceramic often craft bathroom basins, enabling you to bring a piece of sculpture into your room.

flooring

Finding a balance between practical and comfortable can be a nightmare with bathroom flooring. If the budget allows, then underfloor heating is a luxury you will wonder how you lived without, but even without that there are plenty of beautiful and resilient floors available.

scents

A perfect bathroom not only looks fantastic, it smells it. Open windows regularly to let in the fresh air and avoid cloying air fresheners or cleaning smells in favour of soft natural fragrances. Diffusers and scented candles provide a very pleasant atmosphere, but for a real statement in terms of both look and smell, nothing quite beats the ancient tradition of fresh flowers.

art

Art is personal, just like your bathroom - don't ignore the space available here for that individual touch. Pick something you love and make it the ultimate talking point. Whether a bold sculpture piece or a beautifully framed print, try to find something unique which pleases you most of all and give your overall bathroom design a signature to finish it off. Or even go for the full personal touch and add your favourite photo inside your shower, with a custom printed shower wall digital panel.
