Design Tips For Your
New Bathroom
Bathrooms are more than just a room for
grooming or for personal hygiene. It is not only
for shower, soaking in a tub, or for toilet use.
There are some homeowners who put their
exercise machine, TV and, and music system in
it. The design of the bathroom will depend on
you. It is up to you what style you want to
incorporate or what amenities you want to
include. The important thing in this is that it is
functional yet stylish enough that you will want
to stay in it. To get more ideas about how to
decorate it, read magazines and watch home
decorating shows on television. Have a
notebook where you can list down your ideas
and to store your clippings. By doing so, it will
be easy for you to scan and refer to it when the
time comes that you have the funds to build
your own bathroom.
Here are few design tips that you can apply to
your future planned space:
WALL, DÉCOR, AND COLOR
If the walls have soft or earth tones, either
choose a dark or light colored floor mats,
towels, and curtains. Choose fixtures that have
modern touch. You can purchase contemporary
accessories from the local stores like de-
constructed chandelier, fancy towel holders,
and artsy wall decors. If you choose traditional
designs, do not incorporate modern-looking
fixtures to the conventional items. The room
will look better if you will add fresh blooms and
scented candles to create a romantic ambience.
TILES
Tiles can be used for the floor as well as on the
lower half of the walls. Choose a bigger-sized
for the floor so that there will be less grout
lines. This is where most of the dirt hides and it
can be hard to keep them clean. You can choose
a different size for the walls but you can be
creative by laying them either diagonally or you
can add a different color or design between two
similar tiles. This is a simple way of decorating
yet practical for people who are not creative
enough to think of ways how to beautify their
space.
LIGHTING
You can choose a natural light or an artificial
one. Lighting is utilized to brighten the room or
create a mood. If you want to save on
electricity, have bigger windows and have a
skylight installed. This will bring in natural light
and you will get to see the view around your
property while you bathe. An artificial lighting
can be an overhead light or you can have a few
of it installed around the vanity mirror.
STORAGE
Utilize spaces like the walls or underneath the
sink. Have cabinets installed in the wall for
linens, towels, and toiletries. The one
underneath the sink can be used to store
cleaning agents. A medicine cabinet can also be
installed over the toilet.
Make use of the different resources that you
can find around you to help you when you plan
for a new bathroom. Read magazines, watch TV
shows that are about home decorations, and
ask professionals for tips to help you get started
with your plan.

Simple Design Tips
For Bathrooms
The bathroom is as important as any of the
rooms in the house. This is a private space for
grooming and hygiene purposes. Some
homeowners put up music systems, TV, and
even their exercise machines. Most people

consider the room as their resting place. They
can unwind in it by taking a hot shower and a
bath while listening to soothing music.
Renovating it will make it more efficient. Of
course you have to consider the aesthetic
appeal of it so that it will be inviting to anyone
who will be using it, but you also have to give
importance to its true purpose. If you plan on
redesigning it, determine first the style that you
want and the fixtures that you wish to add.
Bathrooms come in different sizes and this
should be considered when you are in the
planning stage.
 For the master bathroom, you can
make it look luxurious by incorporating
everything that you need and you can
afford. It should be big since it will
include the toilet with bidet, two sinks
for his and hers, a separate tub,
shower, some spa facilities, and maybe
more if your budget will permit it. If
there is still more room, move the
exercise equipment in there so that
before you take a shower, you get to
perspire first.
 The ones for the kids can be smaller by
a quarter than their parents. This will
also depend on the number of children
that you have. Their own bathroom
should be colorful and have plenty of
storage spaces for their toiletries,
towels, and cosmetics.
 The guest bathrooms do not have to be
big but it should not also be too small.
Here are some more options to help you
decide:
 Full bathroom- includes the
important amenities like the toilet,
tub and shower, and sink. The
typical dimension for this is 5x8 or
you can make it bigger than this.
 Half-sized- this is usually placed in
the main floor for guests. It only has
toilet and sink.
 Small type- this has the basics like
toilet, sink, and a shower stall.
To make the room more efficient, storage
spaces will be a great addition. This will save
you a lot of room for other important things.
Opt for a sink that has a cabinet underneath it.
You can store in it the cleaning materials that
you often use for the upkeep of the place. You
can also have cupboards installed on the walls.
These are ideal for towels and some unused
toiletries.
For the lighting, use a skylight to let in natural
light and this is also cost-efficient. Artificial
lighting will add mood to the area. It will
enhance the ambiance to make it cozier. Add to
that the decorations, which will give character
to whole room.
Designing your own bathroom can be fun. You
get to choose the materials to use as well as the
layout of the amenities. Do research about this
to learn more about the various designs that
you could incorporate to your ideas.
