It might not be expensive to have well-positioned windows or interior wall finishes that let in and reflect natural light, but the big style comes with creative solutions for bathroom floor spaces.

Regardless of the way the house was found, every home occupant wants their home to be their haven and having a bathroom that emits an opulent, yet cosy vibe becomes one of the many priorities. However, we can share simple tips that can bring some unforgettable bathroom appeals.

Declutter Your Old bath room With Space-saving Ideas

Apart from the bathtub or shower area, there can be more floor space in standard layouts of modern bathrooms. Instead of storing bath accessories, and body care products on bathrooms' countertop; simply compartmentalise your storage space. Once you arrange your belongings into labeled boxes or compartments, you’ll be surprised by how organised your bathroom now looks. An organised bathroom space calls for a peaceful alone time in a bubble bath or even otherwise. Knowing that everything is organised and can be easily accessed can leave one with the satisfaction of a clean and tidy bathroom. Usually, smart home design experts recommend wall cabinets as ideal bathroom storage boxes. Most people notice the untidiness of any bathroom space with clusters of shampoos, soap boxes, shaving gel, facial cleansers, and other cosmetics. So, homeowners can de-clutter their bathrooms by using space-saving décor ideas like vanity units, feature wall shelves, and cabinets. These shelves can also be filled with small bath towels, potpourri and candles to enhance the luxe appeal of the bathroom. This not only ensures that your things are organised and decluttered but also emanates a fancy and rich vibe.

Think of Some Visual Appeal

It might be embarrassing when guests use your bathroom, and the shower curtain is dirty. Instead of replacing old shower curtains every year, install (swing or sliding) frosted-glass shower doors. Like porcelain ceramic tiles, the reflection of light on glass materials add brightness to an open-floor bathroom. This also ensures that the water doesn’t splash out making the tiles wet and untidy. The glass doors also make sure that the heat is trapped within during showers in the winter and gives you a hotel-like feel in your own safe space.

More visual appeal can be added with the clever use of floating basin units. Usually, en-suite and master bathrooms with freestanding tubs often have some vertical space for other decor ideas. Both a wall-hung basin and well-designed tubs can make the bathroom space appear larger than normal. What inspires these décor ideas of bespoke bathroom fittings and fixtures is the ease of movement. Also, a spacious bathroom is an opportunity to have a small visual space that's outside the shower area. For most avid interior decor enthusiasts, it's rejuvenating to add some dramatic designs or decor ideas to the bathroom space. Having a theme related design on your reflective bathroom walls would also be a good idea to add more of an aesthetic touch. You could always contact your interior designer to help you with ideas to fill up the empty space or check out online ideas through Pinterest and Instagram for DIY décor ideas. Suggestions for creativity never dies. Hence, you need not worry about finding the perfect fit as there are plenty of ways to go about it and find the best option out of the lot.

Use Paint Textures as Unique Space-saving Ideas 

The colour texture of a bathroom's interior has striking psychological effects. Without using overwhelming decorative features, you can maintain minimalistic shades of paints that accentuate the beauty of bathrooms. While light colours brighten dark corners and make space appear bigger, applying neutral colours is a subtle way of cropping bathroom walls. Consider the use of rich pastel colours to design a theme for your bathroom as these are known to best complement a subtle touch of design. During bathroom renovations, design experts might switch from modern to vintage decor ideas. A simple blend of neutral colours (like taupe or cream) and dark blue marble wall tiles is often impressive. It is up to you to decide if you want to stick to the modern theme or have a vintage revamp to your bathroom. Vintage ideas have now become the trendsetter in the market. Many prefer this theme over the modern ones due to its meticulous attention to detail and channelizes an entirely different vibe. Discuss these possibilities with your designer to find out the best possible options and to know what would suit your bathroom and tastes the best.

Mirrors Are Great Decorative Features

Do you want to make an illusion of a spacious bathroom with either a framed or frameless mirror? Depending on your personality, one of the right bathroom fixtures that beautify any space is a large mirror. The trick is to get a focal point in the bathroom where your towel railing or washbasin is installed beside a large mirror with well-beveled edges. Large mirrors often bounce natural or recessed lighting rays that fall on them, and they create visual enhancements accordingly.

Designed walls

Install Scones and Skylights 

Some modern bathrooms have stylish chandeliers, but tubular skylights and scones have dynamic effects. Usually, recessed lighting in bathrooms is more reliable than natural lights. When your bathroom's ceilings have a lofty design, lighting fixtures can make the space beautiful and functional. However, LED bulbs are better than traditional fluorescent bulbs because the latter don't conserve energy. 

After creating a luxurious space, an airy bathroom should have offensive odours. Instead, the aesthetic beauty of any home interior space should make it cosy. Apart from promoting personal hygiene, install underfloor heating systems to prevent the growth of moulds and mildews that contaminate air quality. Moreover, all these fixes and makeover ensures that the property is of great worth during potential future property sales, be it online or traditional, the work you undertake in your bathroom can be a rewarding investment.
