The days of staid, plain and merely functional bathrooms are long gone. More and more, today’s bathrooms are designed with increasing attention to detail, with comfort and style taking top priority. Below we offer you some tips on how you can make your bathroom stylish as well as comfortable.

•    Make sure that you have enough space for the doors, windows, fixtures and bathroom accessories, and that people are able to stand and sit in the bath, get in and out and move comfortably.

•    If you have a bathroom that is a bit dated but do not wish to change the room itself, use newer bathroom furniture that work well with each other.

•    If you find that you are a bit short of space, you can create the illusion of more space with bathroom mirrors and shelves that are either made of glass, or use glass extensively.

•    A common problem that many designers have with bathrooms is that the ceiling is usually too high and the walls too narrow. This can be remedied by using strategically placed lights and decorations that will give the illusion of more horizontal space. You can also use a false ceiling with a slatted design. This will help enhance the effect of a lower ceiling.

•    Consider changing the fixtures in a style that is more appropriate with your overall design. Even if they work fine, replacing bathroom accessories and fixtures with new ones that reflect the theme you are going for will work wonders for changing the look of your bathroom.
