Are you looking to upgrade your bath or remodel an existing one to make it part of your home’s expansions or additions? That is a quick guide to some fantastic bathroom addition ideas to make your bathroom more beautiful.
Lighting
A well-lit room is inviting, but why is this often overlooked in bathrooms? Mainly since this is the area where we spend most of our time gazing at our reflection!
Instead of the recessed ceiling lighting, Consider incorporating accent lighting in the shape of a stylish pendant light or something similar.
Another excellent bathroom concept is strip LED lighting that gets placed around the mirror in the bathroom. It provides even front lighting instead of excessive overhead lighting, making it much easier to apply makeup, shave or take a look at yourself!
A skylight can also be an excellent idea for an upstairs bathroom, allowing sunlight. Some models have built-in ventilation that lets air out with no noisy fans.
Storage
We’re adamant that you should stay organized in your bathroom. You’ll be grateful for the space when you have it.
A few of the best bathroom addition storage ideas we’ve seen lately are drawers with pull-outs for cosmetics, similar items, huge mirror cabinets, and freestanding furniture that add a unique look and storage.
Tile Selection
There are a lot of choices for bathroom tiles. Here are a few ideas to think about:
- Patterns – Breaking out of the norm using bolder patterns is an excellent method to add style to your bathroom. Try mixing it up by adding some vibrant colors as well.
- Matt finish – Matt tiles don’t show dirt, watermarks, or glossy tiles, so you’ll have less bathroom maintenance.
- Bigger is better – The oversized bathroom tiles are currently popular and get anticipated to become a massive fashion. They are lovely, and you won’t have to worry as much about the grout. Here’s an example of how:
A Double Sink
If you live in a household with a continuous waiting line outside the bathroom, think about the option of a double sink. It can save everyone time during the morning and evening “peak hours” with two people brushing their teeth simultaneously, whether you, your spouse or your children.
An arrangement of ‘his and hers’ could also be an option for those tired of cleaning someone else’s hair and dried-out toothpaste!
Plants
Certain plants can cleanse the air by removing contaminants like formaldehyde. Others will provide a wonderful scent in bloom. Adding some greenery to bathrooms is a good idea to soften the hard surfaces and add a natural touch.
Certain plant species that work well in bathrooms are:
- Orchids – They are highly content in dim light and produce stunning flowers
- Boston Fern – Loves high humidity, the gorgeous look of the rainforest
- Philodendron – Simple care, ideal in a window to get indirect sunlight
- Peace Lily – also easy to maintain and has beautiful white flowers
- Spider Plants – stripes of leaves with a gorgeous cascading pattern
