Bathrooms sell homes, injecting style and a luxury.
A well-designed bathroom is more than just a functional space—it’s a retreat, and an essential part of a home’s overall aesthetic. Here’s how to turn your bathroom into a space that seamlessly blends practicality with elegance.
1. Rethink the Layout
One of the first steps in a bathroom transformation is assessing the existing layout. Does it maximize space and functionality? Consider repositioning key elements like the vanity, shower, or removing the bathtub to enhance flow and usability. This aims to improve efficiency and create a more open and inviting atmosphere.
In apartments moving fixtures around involves special planning permits now. Assess the benefits before you decide to go down this path. In the Edgecliff project the client opted not to however the new lighting and mirrors introduced major benefits.
The bathroom in this Milson’s Point apartment was very spacious. The client also opted to remove the bath and add a double shower on our recommendation. The Corian custom designed wall hung vanity cabinet incorporated a continuous fall drain at the rear of the basin.
2. Lighting
Lighting plays a crucial role in setting the mood. Layered lighting—combining task lighting for functionality and ambient lighting for atmosphere—can transform the experience of your bathroom. Backlit mirrors, wall lights and strategically placed LED strips are excellent additions.
Considered lighting adds a major touch in upgrading a bathroom. Strip Led Lighting below vanity cabinets functions as a night light, washing light over the floor to create a gentle mood.
Back lit bathroom mirrors enhance the feeling of space by throwing light up onto the ceilings and walls. In Alfred St., the custom shaving cabinets incorporate lighting to the back of the mirrors.
3. Upgrade Fixtures and Fittings
Consider the space for cleaning when selecting wall-mounted vanities & freestanding tubs. We can help you with choosing water-efficient fixtures to reduce water consumption that without compromising style. In NSW any renovation over $50K must have water and energy efficient fixtures to reduce water consumption.
4. Play with Materials and Textures
Introducing different materials and textures can add depth and character to your bathroom. Incorporating natural stone, terrazzo, or timber-look finishes adds a timeless appeal. Texture, tiles & special tapware finishes create sophistication and a particular design aesthetics. While neutral palettes are generically favoured, don’t shy away from incorporating bold colours or statement pieces.
5. Smart Storage Solutions
Clutter-free bathrooms exude a sense of calm and luxury. Incorporate clever storage solutions such as recessed shelves, floating vanities, and built-in cabinets to keep essentials organized without sacrificing style. Open shelving displaying beautiful accessories enhances the character of your room maintaining practicality.
6. Invest in Quality and Sustainability
A well-executed bathroom transformation prioritizes quality craftsmanship and sustainable choices. Selecting durable materials and energy-efficient features not only enhances longevity but also contributes to an eco-friendly home.
Select special tiles carefully and use them judiciously. Not only are they costly, if not placed carefully they can have a detrimental effect upon the space.
