FREE BATHROOM DESIGN SERVICE

Bathroom design requires little effort in selecting sanitary ware as white has reigned supreme in bathrooms. New surfaces have added extensive choice in overall bathroom design, ceramic tiles and vinyl are no longer the only options even concrete is now finished to such a high degree that it is desirable in bathrooms. Reinforced glass is now virtually unbreakable and can be used in bathrooms for hand basins and baths as well as for splash backs. Colour is important in creating moods in bathrooms. Muted natural colours for bathrooms such as cream, beige, soft greens and browns can have very relaxing and calming effects. Yellow can be pale and refreshing for bathrooms in morning daylight but warm and golden in subdued light. Bathroom design with a single wall of colour can add contrast but be cautious about painting all the walls in a small bathroom with a strong colour as this would be overpowering. Blue is a watery colour that can be refreshing for bathrooms first thing in the morning and in a dim light will create a restful and peaceful atmosphere. Different shades of mosaic tiles can be used to create the effect of a wash of colour going across bathrooms. Lighten the shade from floor to ceiling and the effect will be of looking at the sky from under the sea. A couple of lines of colours of tile can create a mock dado effect and give definition to different areas of bathrooms. Fabrics are best kept to the minimum in bathrooms but may be used sparingly to add touches of colours.

Bathroom design can suit organic tactile surfaces such as wood, stone, plaster and glass give a human touch and an earthiness that gives contrast. Marble, limestone, granite and soapstone are good floor and surface materials for bathrooms as they are impervious to water and can be cut into thin tiles and slabs so the weight is kept low. Tongue and groove wooden boards can create an intimate atmosphere in large bathrooms but are overpowering for smaller bathrooms. Whether building and designing new bathrooms or improving the old, the bathroom is all about choosing the appropriate fixtures and fittings. Choose the style to fit your taste, needs, space and budget. Bathroom design tends to mirror the fashions of contemporary kitchens, leaning toward modern-looking, built-in fixtures, or harking back to Victorian and Edwardian times.
Bathroom design of course is affected by money, the more you spend, the more styles you'll have to choose from. You'll find a wide range of bathrooms in our website, we offer wonderful sanitary sculptures like glass sinks and contemporary tap designs.

Plan bathrooms so that all the members of your family will enjoy it. Keep the safety of your children in mind when choosing your flooring and lighting. Keep the existing service points in mind when planning bathrooms as rewiring and re-plumbing takes a lot of time and money.
Plan enough different types of storage. Shelving for products for every day use, cupboards for occasionally used products and towels, and bins for laundry. Plan storage for children's accessories and toys. Decide whether you have the space to install a separate shower enclosure or a shower above the bath. A separate shower will take more space, but two people can use the room at the same time.
