A Guide To Personalising Your Bathroom

At the heart of the matter, bathrooms are fundamentally practical spaces that exist to serve a purpose. They each have their toilet, basin and bath or shower, which are almost invariable white. The fact that the predominant trend in bathroom dcor over the last decade has been stark minimalism and the end result is that we have a great many bathrooms that look a lot alike and dont really seem to have any individual character.

So how can we go about adding a sense of personality into our bathrooms? Of course, most of us still want bathrooms that are modern, stylish and neatly organised, but these rooms should be an extension of the dcor in the rest of our homes, rooms we automatically personalise and make comfortable.

Fortunately, the resurgent popularity of bathroom furniture, alongside several other key advances, has made customising your bathroom more straightforward than ever before. There are now such a wide range of cupboards and cabinets in all conceivable variation of dimension, finish and purpose, so that you can rest assured that your bathroom will no longer simply blend into the crowd.

White bathrooms suites are the standard models these days, and when coupled with white walls, they can make bathrooms feel a little sterile, so natural wooden furniture is proving to be by far and away the most popular furniture finish to help soften the harsher aspects of bathroom design. Wooden furniture has richness, texture and character that is unique to each piece, as no two wood grains are the same.

Natural stone tiles have many similar benefits in this regard, in that the grain and marbling of each tile has its own unique pattern. These tiles are also becoming increasingly popular in bathroom design not only for their luxurious aesthetic, but for the fact that they are particularly dense and waterproof as well. These tiles are perfect for fitting out a stylish modern wet room, or for smaller accent areas, such as a splash zone behind your basin.

Rather than a traditional radiator and towel rail set-up, why not heat your bathroom with flair and panache and upgrade to a heated towel rail? The chrome finished, heated towel rail will censure you have warm, dry towels whenever you need them, will create a luxurious ambient heat in the room, and will create a focal design point.

Changing your wall colour from white to a light pastel shade will also soften your aesthetic, create more warmth and character and add an extra frisson of personality as well.

None of these changes require a huge budget, nor will they take a huge amount of time to implement. What they will do is provide you with a personalised individual bathroom, that reflects who you are and results in a room in which you can truly relax.
