Bathrooms
are no longer treated as second cousins in the home with just about
enough to allow you to complete your daily cleansing rituals. Today,
bathrooms are designed to exude spa like luxury where you can indulge
yourself with a deep relaxing bath while listening to some jazz music
on the surround sound system. In sharp contrast to traditional
bathroom designs which focused more on grandeur, modern small
bathroom designs focus on creating a soothing, luxurious experience
that suddenly makes the world appear a much better place.
Contemporary
bathroom designs focus on clean angular lines and geometric shapes.
Rounded mirrors, for instance, are a departure away from the
traditional rectangular mirrors and a great way to introduce new
design elements into your bathroom designs. Large rounded mirrors are
perfect for small bathroom designs, for they create a focal point for
the wall, while also enlarging the space through optical illusion.
Modern bathrooms are about making a luxury statement, which is why
art pieces are making their way back into bathrooms. Modern art
pieces can draw attention with their geometric shapes and bright
colour combinations, and are perfect for creating a spa like ambience
for your bathroom.
A bathroom soaked in luxury needs the right
lighting to focus on its unique design images. A mix of natural and
artificial light is the most preferred design for small bathroom
designs. Place the tub or shower area near beneath the window- for
there is no better way to indulge in a luxurious bath than by soaking
yourself in water while drenched in natural light, which is why many
modern bathrooms include skylight options for homeowners to engage in
star gazing while soaking in the bath. Pendant lights, wall scones or
recessed lights- a combination of one or two or all of these can
provide the additional lighting required to create the best
contemporary ambience.
