Ideas For Revamping Your Bathroom With Romance In Mind

Get a bathroom design right, and it can add value to your property. That doesn’t mean you should worry about it; value isn’t the be all and end all of the interior designs. When the time is right, and you have enough money to overhaul your bathroom, you have a chance to inject some of your own personalities into it. Many modern bathrooms look almost clinical in their design. No matter how good the heating is, they always appear cold. That coldness is not conducive to a romantic setting. Here are a few ideas for revamping your bathroom with romance in mind.

Illumination

In the day, natural light is best. Do not fit curtains because they make the window appear smaller than it is. Use window blinds instead. There are lots of options for you to choose from; here are a few ideas.

  • Roller
  • Venetian
  • Pleated
  • Roman
  • Vertical
  • Blackout Roller

My personal favourite for bathrooms is roller blinds. They are cheap, come in many designs, and easy to fit.

You will probably install a new LED ceiling light, but think about wall sconces for candles. Flickering flames relax and calm you. That is the mood you are trying to achieve.

Bathroom Suite

What could be more romantic than sharing a bath? If you have a small room, get rid of the shower cubicle to make room for a super-sized bathtub. Whirlpool baths come as complete units these days, and only need water and a power supply to operate. Can you imagine the warm water massaging you while you drink a glass of wine? Bliss.

All bathrooms need two sinks these days so check out some unique vanities online or in your local showroom. The designers have come up with some beautiful furniture that will enhance any room.

Mirrors

Mirrors are essential features here. Cover a wall with a mirror if you can to give the impression that the room is twice the size. Avoid the use of mirror tiles; they are old fashioned. You local glaziers will cut a mirror to size and mount if for you no matter how big it is. One huge mirror is better than many small ones.

The Floor

Cushioned vinyl flooring is warmer than ceramic tile for the floor. It is easy to fit and comes in many attractive designs from which you can choose. The advantage of this flooring is that you can replace it when redecorate. You cannot replace ceramic tiles without much mess and work.

Fireplace

If you live in an old property with a fireplace, don’t cover it up. Fireplaces are inherently romantic, as are the candles we mentioned earlier. The flames stir up a primitive response within us.

Music

Install some bathroom speakers in the ceiling so that you can pipe in your favourite tunes. Music is the food of love, as they say.

I hope this article has set you thinking. The bathroom needn’t be a commercial room; it can be as relaxing as luxurious as you want. It is all down to individual choice; something that seems to be lacking in modern design.
