3 Awesome Aspects To Consider Before Your Bathroom Renovation

If you intend to do a bathroom renovation project, don't just settle for the common features you see all around. Although there may be some sense in holding on to the tried and tested designs, it surely won't hurt too much just to try out a few extra things to spice your bathing space.

Here are some awesomely creative ideas to help you create a truly outstanding bathroom:

Go For Elegant Designs

We all know the feeling you get when your house no longer appeals to you and appears just like a sad, uninspiring cave. You definitely, don't want that to happen to your bathing space, which should be a relaxing and soothing environment. To ensure that you never get bored of this special room, make a bit of effort to pick out elegant and interesting designs for every fixture and fitting.

Why should you settle for the all-too-common rectangular bath tub when you can go all out and invest in a truly awesome oval-shaped stone bath tub, with an ornately-designed freestanding tap? Also don't just install any shower head or tap, but rather pick out designs that will create captivating focal points in the room. Complement this with a supremely inspiring pedestal sink that brings out the rich opulence within your bathroom.

You can easily get creative inspiration from renowned bathroom designs. Good examples are the designs presented in the Good Design Awards, organized by the International Council of Societies of Industrial Design.

Light It Up

It really doesn't make any sense to install the most elegant of fixtures, but have very little lighting to truly appreciate such profound beauty. This goes much further than just the basic lighting. You also need to include task lighting installations to accentuate specific areas within the room.

A good place to have sufficient and targeted lighting is close to the mirror, around where you do your shaving and teeth-brushing. Of course, you shower and bath tub areas must have ample lighting - how else would you tell if you've truly got rid of all the grime from your body?

Heat It Up

The experience of walking into a cold bathroom is sure to make you dread the thought of taking a bath, apart from any nightmares it might cause. This is especially so if you have marble-, ceramic- or stone-tile flooring. Admittedly, no matter how elegant these types of flooring may be, they simply cannot compare to the warmth of a well-sealed hardwood floor. However, you can solve this problem simply by installing subfloor heating coils.

You can even go further to install heated towel rails, just to make sure that your hot bath doesn't end in the shivering embrace of an ice-cold towel. Moreover, that towel rail is sure to heat up a bit of the air around it - one more reason to always crave those bath sessions.

While installing heaters, you should consider the most suitable design arrangements that suit effective heat dispersion within the room. This is critically important if you don't want to spend excessive amounts on energy bills, especially since the Australian Department of the Environment indicates that heating and cooling constitute the largest energy use (40% of total household energy use) in Australian homes.
