Homeowners across the world are looking for ways to increase the value of their homes through renovation. Many of these homeowners turn to kitchen and bathroom renovations, creating an appealing space that will draw in potential purchasers and also make their home life modern, convenient and functional.
The decision to carry out a renovation is an exciting one, but it does come with a lot of imagination and decisions. It’s very difficult to picture the space when completed, which is why it’s so important to sit down with your designer or draw up your own layout, which you can use as reference when visiting bathroom showrooms and looking at the fantastic products available.
Your layout doesn’t have to be anything fancy and it’s really easy to do. Using a piece of paper write down the measurements of the space, measure the length and width of the space, so as you purchase products, you can ensure they leave you with enough floor space. It’s always advisable to measure from floor to window sill, especially if you intend placing a bath or basin under the window.
Deciding on a design can be a little harder to accomplish. You may want to follow recent trends and choose a spa inspired space that oozes luxury and elegance or you may want to go with an ultra-modern space with plenty of straight edges and brilliant whites. There is no right or wrong here, the choice is down to what you prefer and what you feel will work best for you and your family.
When you visit a bathroom showroom you will find yourself tugged in all directions. There are so many products to look at and decide on. In order to ensure they work in your space, take your layout along with you. This way you can measure the items and then check to see that they will fit without compromising your floor space.
While visiting the bathroom showroom, ensure that you keep the style the same. If you are going for a large freestanding bath that is rectangular with straight edges, ensure you choose straight edged basins to compliment it. It can get very messy when you choose various designs throughout the space; you want the items to work together enhancing the space.
Colours are very important when designing any space in your home, especially the bathroom. You want it to be light and bright, light natural tones on the walls, light wood furniture, white products and maybe add some colour to your freestanding bath, if that is what you have chosen, making it a centrepiece in the room.
Remember the lighter and brighter the space, the bigger it will feel. If your space doesn’t benefit from an abundance of natural light, add additional lighting through mirrors. Mirrors, when strategically placed, can bounce any natural light coming into the space throughout the room, immediately making it lighter and brighter.
Always ensure when you visit a bathroom showroom that you are realistic about what will and will not fit in your space. Smaller bathrooms will benefit with a shower or steam shower over a large bath. Whatever you do, ensure you don’t compromise your floor space.
Speak to the sales team at the store, advise them what you need and the space you have available and see what they recommend. These teams have worked in the industry for many years and are the best people to make recommendations to meet your requirements.
Don’t forget your accessories. Accessories are such an important part of the renovation, ensuring your space is convenient, functional and practical.
