How to Jazz Up Your Bathroom

How to Jazz Up Your Bathroom


Once got all the basic bathroom essentials in place - toilet, basin, shower, bath and floor tiles - now's the time to start stepping things up a notch to make your bathroom more luxurious and original. Most of all, you want a bathroom that suits you and your family perfectly.

Here are a few ideas for getting a great bathroom finish:

Do more with shower doors - There are many high-quality, creatively designed shower doors and bath screens out there right now, some as part of a shower pack and some even with toughened glass for extra functionality.

Illuminating mirrors - LED mirrors are a great way to add a futuristic touch (as well as a little glamour) to a white, minimalist bathroom.

Heat it up - Don't forget about towel rails and heating when planning your dream bathroom; they make all the difference when it comes to comfort on a cold morning.

An extra-special toilet seat - It may only be a small touch, but an attractive toilet seat can be a great feature in a modern bathroom. Go for gleaming white to match the rest of your bathroom or dare to be different with a natural wood toilet seat.

Style Ideas: Monochrome Bathrooms

As much as you might want the design of the rest of your home to be comfortable and relaxed, the bathroom is an area that demands clean, crisp lines and contemporary design. A monochrome colour scheme could be just the ticket, keeping your bathroom new and fresh with just the slightest suggestion of old-fashioned glamour.

Tiles

Forget carpets, floor tiles and ceramic wall tiles are the only way to get a truly contemporary, cutting-edge bathroom. When choosing tiles for your new monochrome bathroom: bear the following in mind:

Avoid the black and white chequered look unless it's on small areas or in the kitchen.
Keep walls simple in pristine, glossy white. If you keep these areas neutral, your furniture and accessories will stand out more and the overall look is more subtle.
Black marble floor tiles - The addition of natural materials, especially ones as luxurious as this - can stop your stylised bathroom seeming too austere.
Feature sections - You can break the simplicity with more intricately designed feature sections or walls (think mosaic tiles).

Furniture

In addition to gleaming white baths, toilets, sinks and showers, don't be afraid to continue the theme with your accessories. Shower curtains, mirrors, and cabinets can be in tones of black, grey and white, whilst you can introduce an exciting splash of colour in plants, flowers or art work.
