What is it that you want to do after a busy day at work and an evening of active socialising? Go home and take a long, relaxing shower before starting to unwind. Your home is your sanctuary, your haven, where you can be yourself and make beautiful memories with family and loved ones. And the one place you go to completely decompress is the bathroom. Be it indulging in beauty regimens or soaking in a long, warm bath - the bathroom is the place that gives you the much-needed "me time". Investing in a luxurious upgrade for this space is just what you need.
Here are some bathroom ideas to give your home the perfect upgrade.
- The magnificent bathtub - Nothing screams luxury like an expansive bathtub. What better way to indulge yourself than soaking in a scented bubble bath? Make the bathtub the hero of the bathroom, and pick one in polished granite, marble, or any soft material soft for a truly zen experience. With several different options available in the market, you can choose from a freestanding bathtub, a partially submerged one, or a built-in bathtub. Some of the top-range bathtubs come with a range of wonderful features, such as in-built heaters, jets or bubbles, music function, colours or chromotherapy, and digital controls.
- Rainfall showerhead with massage feature - Want a day-end experience that reminds you of a waterfall or a rainfall? Installing an ultra-modern shower panel in your bathroom can provide you with all this and much more. Modern shower panels come with dual (overhead and hand head) showerheads, rainfall features, nature sounds, and steam features. Glass shower enclosures with shower benches can provide you with a complete spa-like experience. To add to this, you can now pick a shower system with a massage feature. The waterjets are designed to simulate a deep tissue massage. Now that is the indulgence you need to feel completely rejuvenated.
- Regal designs and more - Your bathroom designs require the same attention and care as your living room. Go light with a spectacular all-white marble look, or go dark with dark patterned tiles, stone or ceramic slabs, or even textured dark paint. Add drama to your bathroom with gold accents and fixtures, and add an eggshell finish. Recent bathroom ideas and trends recommend using a stunning combination of offbeat colours like olive or eggplant with shades of cream or off-white for a modern and chic feel. Elaborate crown mouldings can definitely add a royal touch to your bathroom.
- Mirror and vanity cabinets - The mirrors and the vanity cabinets are the defining elements of any bathroom. For a luxurious upgrade, you may want to consider switching the run-of-the-mill mirror for a custom-designed piece that adds drama and frames the faucet and sink. An expansive mirror with golden detailing, preferably one with touch sensor LED lights, is the perfect addition. Accentuate the bathroom with a set of large and well-built vanity cabinets that stand out rather than blend in. Consider a marble finish with antique handles or a modern touch latch release mechanism to complement the rest of the bathroom.
- Light it right – Light, mirror, and glass - that is the winning combination when it comes to creating magic in the bathroom. It is always preferable to have a large window that lets the sunlight stream in. Use a light lace or net fabric curtain or shades for privacy. If this is not practical, use concealed lights to create the same soft and warm effect. Strategically placed mirrors and glass partitions can help amplify the bathroom's light without the glare. Customised chandeliers, votives, and candles can add a royal but retro feel to your bathroom.
- Life and luxury - When it comes to doing up the interiors of a home, experts recommend using plants and flowers to add life and vibrancy. Your bathroom is no different. Adding small plants that do not require much sunlight or maintenance is always a good idea. Studies suggest that greenery helps you relax and feel good. Adding fresh flowers in beautiful crystal vases can help add a pop of colour and break the monochrome theme without looking out of place.
To design a truly luxurious and opulent bathroom, you may want to consult an interior designer and learn more about different materials, accessories, and other design elements. Seamlessly integrating aesthetics and functionality often requires professional expertise.
Designing your bathroom interiors to suit your preferences becomes easier when you invest in an under-construction property. Builders and developers are more inclined to accommodate changes and additions (without altering the structural elements) when the property is still in the construction stage. When you partner with the Blox online platform for your property search, your relationship manager will help you get in touch with some of the top builders and developers in the locality of your choice and help you find your dream property.
