Facelift through color
It is known that color is one of the most important aspects when it comes to design and the effect we want to give to practically everything. Well, it is no less important in a bathroom. Changing only the color of the walls or even the ceiling can already make it look like a larger or brighter bathroom. If the bathroom you want to change is small, go for neutral and light colors, as they will bring it brightness and create the effect of being more spacious. Use whites, grays with a light tone, pink, beige, pastel colors… But always in light tones. If you want to use darker colors in a small bathroom, reserve them for the accessories you are going to add, since dark furniture is not recommended in small spaces either. If, on the other hand, you have a very large bathroom with a lot of light, you can choose to put furniture with darker tones and combine them with light or neutral wall and ceiling tones. Or even paint the bathroom with dark tones that contrast with light furniture. In this case you have more choice that can combine well and create a pleasant space. You can also use a single color, but in several shades, this will create an effect of more uniformity in the bathroom. Another way to add a little color to a bathroom, whether large or small, is to paint one of its walls with brighter colors and make the rest much more neutral. This will give it a more vivid touch.
Adding textures as an idea to renovate a bathroom
To add a little style and design to a bathroom, one resource that exists is to give some areas relief. Whether with panels that decorate the wall, with imitations of bricks, tiles… Nowadays there are endless possibilities to acquire these panels or even decorative sheets with relief to give that touch of style to your bathroom. This creates a slightly more industrial style of the bathroom, and that is no longer so conventional.
Ideas for renovating a bathroom: Different flooring for bathroom renovation
Another texture that can be changed in a bathroom is the floor. If you want to give your bathroom a new style, we also recommend thinking about changing the floor to give it a different look, whether it is warmer, more modern, traditional… or even neutral. It all depends on the style you decide to give it.
The different types of flooring recommended for bathrooms are the following:
- Laminate flooring
- Natural stone flooring
- Porcelain stoneware floor
- Microcement flooring
- Tile flooring
- Granite or marble flooring
- Vinyl flooring
Our recommendation is the same as in the color section. In addition to paying attention to the material you put on the floor of your bathroom, pay attention to the color you give it in relation to the furniture you put and the color of the walls and ceiling, so that the space is not too dark or out of tune. The best advice we can give you to design a space is to always think about the whole, not the parts separately. Because everything is in consonance.
Changing taps
Another possibility you have to renovate your bathroom if you don’t want to do a comprehensive renovation is to change the taps to give it a different style. This change is much cheaper than any other and, although it may seem minimal, it completely changes the style of any bathroom. It is important to get them to match the furniture, walls and floors, but we assure you that it is very noticeable. If you do this renovation you will gain in quality, functionality and styling.
Let’s move on to the decoration options
One of the great tricks to change your bathroom and make it look very different is with the accessories that we add or remove. It can be given a touch of originality thanks to decoration, and even extra storage places. If your bathroom is large enough, you can add a piece of furniture or decorative shelf, with baskets or boxes to store your bathroom utensils.
Ideas for renovating a bathroom: Decorative lighting for a bathroom
Lights are not only used to illuminate, but also to decorate a space.
And what better way to decorate your bathroom than to add lighting with a more modern touch or the style that best suits you and your home in general. Just by changing the bulb sconces you can give your bathroom another look in the style you want. What we recommend is that if you change the bulbs you buy them in a neutral or cold tone, which is what gives the best atmosphere to the bathrooms.
