Bathroom Remodeling Ideas to Inspire You

Maybe you haven’t thought of it that way but your bathroom is the most important room in your house. It’s the place where you start and finish your day. It’s a place to relax and unwind from a stressful day at work, taking a long shower or enjoying a candlelight bath. It’s where you can temporarily escape from reality and give yourself some solitude. Therefore when you consider a bathroom remodelling you shouldn’t only focus on the functional part but also give attention to creating a pleasant ambience for you and your family to enjoy. 

Whether you are planning to make some minor changes or you are ready to go all in for a full renovation with foundation underpinnings, it will surely be a noticeable change and have a positive impact on your daily routine. Regardless of how big of a revamp you are considering, selecting the best and most suitable remodelling ideas is not always easy. Think about your current bathroom layout and if there is something which doesn’t work well for you and your family and see how you can change it. Start with the more practical side and after consider the details and accessories which add character to the room. 

With that in consideration, get some inspiration from the following bathroom remodelling ideas. 

The modern white and grey marble look

Envisioning that sleek and modern looking bathroom? Big white and grey marble tiles or marble effect bathroom panels are a great option to achieve the look without paying a fortune for real marble. Depending on your layout and how much natural light you have in your bathroom, you can leave a small wall to paint it dark grey. To finish off the modern look you can pair it with mat black/dark grey bathroom faucets and hardware accessories. If you don’t feel like adding some vivid colour, go for dark grey bath and face towels and some rolled-up white small hand towels placed around the sink. 

The nature lovers

Your new bathroom remodel can be the perfect way to bring nature into your home. One way to bring cosiness is to add wood accents to your space. These could be anything from wooden flooring, wood framed mirror, wooden storage shelves or units or live-edge vanity countertop. If you want to feel close to nature you should consider adding greenery. The Indoor Nursery recommend adding vining plants to the bathroom so that they grow toward the light of the window (if there is one). The humidity will keep them happy. 

Double sink and double showers

Do you have the same daily routine with your partner and you often fight over who will use the bathroom first? If that’s your case, consider making a bathroom remodel with two sinks and two walk-in showers to make life easier and more convenient and start your day at your own pace. If your space doesn’t allow for two vanity units, consider a stylish pedestal sink

Bohemian style bathroom

If you are a free-spirit aesthetic who likes natural earthy shades and organic materials, adopt boho style elements in your bathroom remodelling. Use rattan baskets for storage and nicely rolled-up hand towels, place an ethnic rug in front of your sink and add macrame accessories to complete the look. 

Visually enlarge your bathroom

One of the simplest ways is by adding large mirrors which gives the impression for greater depth. When placed in the right place, mirrors also reflect light so it makes the space brighter. For an ensuite bathroom you can remove the wall connected to your bedroom and install glass doors.

Conclusion 

There are endless design ideas you can find online or get inspiration from places you’ve visited and liked what you saw. Depending on the reason for you to initiate a bathroom remodelling project, whether your bathroom is outdated and dysfunctional for your current needs or whether you need plumbing services in order to fix some issues and you’ve decided to make some upgrades, do your search and outline your budget. Once you’ve discovered the style that reflects your preferences and provides you practicality go ahead and bring your dream bathroom home. When you’ve completed your remodeling project, take a long bath and enjoy it with bath bombs for senitive skin.
