Tips for decorating your bathroom
One of the first improvements you can make is to update the
lighting in your bathroom. Correct lighting mixed with the right colors will be
decisive in the mood that the space transmits.
You can start updating your luminaires but if this does not
fit into your budget you can change your bulbs It is advisable to use the new
bulbs that emit a light similar to the one you can see on a bright and sunny
day. Consider incorporating LED bulbs, you will find a multiple variety in the
shades of light that they can give you.
If you have a small bathroom, a strategy to increase the
feeling of space is to place the light fixtures directly on the bathroom
mirror. The light that will bounce will make your room feel bigger.
All good lighting needs a good color palette. There are no
defined rules of how you should paint your bathroom since everything depends on
the space you have. In general, light tones can be used on large surfaces or to
illuminate small spaces. While darker tones can be used as a focal or accent
point and to reduce large space.
If you want to include bright colors or patterns, consider
compensating them with neutral tones and elements. Otherwise, if you decide to
go for a totally white bathroom you can compensate by incorporating color
elements, such as shower curtains or even painting some of your cabinets and
closets .
Whichever color you are going to choose remember that it is
no longer necessary to limit yourself to bright tones. Nowadays it is possible
to add an additive to any matt paint that will help fight moisture.
If painting is not your thing, an option you can explore is
the hanging paper. And we are not talking about those old and boring designs,
today you can find a wide variety of patterns that can give that touch of
glamor to your space.
In small or large bathrooms, storage is key. If you do not
have much space you can use closed or open suspended drawers. To reduce its
visual impact you can use glass shelves. It is larger spaces you can incorporate
floor storage and even consider including bathroom tables that will make your
space more versatile.
It is the small elements that will personalize your
bathroom. You don't have to settle for standard market options. Use different
hooks for your towels, use plants such as orchids that love moisture or you can
incorporate artwork in your bathroom. Use water and moisture resistant canvases
and explore by printing your own pieces of art.
Another element that can help you update your bathroom is
the mirror. You will find a great variety from round mirrors, floating mirrors
or those that stand out for their frames. You can incorporate them as your
focal point, for example, a floor-to-ceiling mirror that covers one of your
walls. The good use of mirrors can make your bathroom look much bigger.
If you want something more permanent than painting or art
pieces then changing your tiles may be the solution. Like the painting,
consider its colors in relation to your space and objective. When selecting
them you can include tiles with different textures and prints to give it a
unique touch. But if you are not totally convinced of which ones you are going
to use, a simple idea is to use removable adhesive tiles; They can help you
visualize the space but in many cases its quality is not the best.
Finally, we cannot forget the most essential pieces of your
bathroom, such as the sink and the toilet. These are pieces that will be with
you for a long time. When you go to buy these elements consider doing it in
white and more traditional designs since they will give you the possibility of
combining them with different styles and will make their useful life longer.
We hope you enjoy your new bathroom.
