Renovating a bathroom is a major project. Before you can design and decorate your updated space, you will need to think of a theme. It's important to decide on a theme for your bathroom in advance as this will help you carry out the theme throughout the entire design.
These are a few tips that can help you narrow down the theme of your bathroom:
The people who will be using your bathroom most frequently could have a significant impact on the theme that you choose. For instance, if you are redesigning an interior upstairs bathroom that is intended for your children, then you may select a theme that is based on a favorite character, color or book. If you are redecorating your guest bathroom, you may opt for a neutral theme that will be welcoming and comfortable for the people who are spending time inside your home.
A bathroom is a place where people escape to. They are often seeking privacy and respite, and you should keep this in mind when you are choosing your theme. In a master bathroom, you may be trying to create a spa-like atmosphere. In a half bathroom down in a finished basement, you may opt for a more utilitarian theme.
Your budget will have an impact on the theme that you choose and your ability to carry it out throughout your bathroom. You should keep cost and prices at the forefront of your mind as you select a theme. For a lower budget, a simple theme may be best. If you are designing your dream bathroom you can consider a more intricate or complicated theme.
If you are having trouble coming up with the right theme for your bathroom renovation project, then you might want to consider a few of these trends:
It's important to select a theme that suits your own personality and preferences. Remember, this is your bathroom space, and you are the one who is going to be using it every day. You need to choose a theme that you love and feel confident in the choices that you make.
