Bathrooms are the favorite part of the house for homeowners when it comes to remodeling. This is because they tend to be relatively smaller spaces, meaning lower costs, and usually have fewer elements compared to any other room.

Here are important tips to make the most out of your next bathroom remodel:

Create Recesses for Storage

Built-in recesses are a great way to increase the available storage space in smaller bathrooms. They offer a sleek and functional alternative to large, chunky cabinets and can be used to store anything from soap dishes and medicines to toilet roll holders.

Ensure Ventilation

Getting the right ventilation system for your bathroom, in the form of a window or an exhaust fan is crucial. It helps expel the moisture which protects your fixtures and tiles and also removes any lingering smells.

Select the Right Flooring

While you may want to go for more elegant options such as solid wood floors, it is important to remember that the flooring that you select needs to be durable as it needs to hold up to hot and humid conditions on a regular basis.

Select The Right Color

Select a color that compliments your bathroom size. Usually, a white-or-light color spectrum works best to create a spacious, calming space. Whereas dark colors can make the space feel cramped.

Get The Right Lighting

Bathrooms serve an important purpose of being a space where people regularly inspect their appearance. This makes lighting all the more important. Instead of bright, overhead lighting opt for sconces lighting with a dimmer switch.

Add Stand-Alone Pieces

In larger bathrooms, you can explore using a standalone piece such as a decorative cabinet or a sculpture as a design element. While being primarily decorative, it can also be functional and  used to store toiletries and other small items.

Install Multiple Mirrors

While you may think of a bathroom as requiring a single mirror to let people check their appearance, you can actually install multiple mirrors as design elements. These additional mirrors can serve a two-pronged purpose of increasing the perceived spaciousness as well as the brightness of the room.

Use Beadboard or Wainscot

Beadboard can be vital as it helps protect the walls from constant exposure to water, at the same time creating a rustic look. You can also use wainscot instead and it comes in a large number of options.
