Lots of people draw a blank with regards to designing a bathroom. To be honest we are all apprehensive and perhaps a little intimidated when it comes to remodeling or decorating our bathrooms because of the sheer volume of details involved in the selection of the color, materials and other accessories.

The bathroom is one room that takes little effort to decorate or remodel. Unlike other rooms in your home, the bathroom just needs a little paint job and updating several of the fixtures to give it a brand new look. The first step to a successful design is choosing the right materials and accessories. Whether it is a full bathroom remodeling or just adding accessories to existing fixtures, your options are endless and thankfully the market is flooded with paint (in every imaginable color) and accessories for your bathroom at cheap prices.

Selecting the proper Tile and Wall Covering

The bathroom tiles set the atmosphere for the entire space. An appealing floor pattern or a deep wall color is essential to the overall design of your bathroom. Select a tile that has great color and pattern and coordinate a wall paint or covering that complements with the rest of the bathroom. Combining different tile sizes and patterns adds visual interest to any bathroom design.

There are a variety of various ways to treat your bathroom wall. You can combine several types to decorate your bathroom:

Waterproof bathroom cladding – is made of uPVC honeycomb section panels that slot into each other using a tongue and groove system. The face of the panel has a vinyl layer, which comes in lot of: wood grain; marble effect; tile effect or solid color.

Ceramic wall tiles – Ceramic tiles are still the most desired selection of bathroom wall treatment and are available today at very inexpensive prices. By using different sizes ceramic tiles and combining them with other tiles for a border, you can achieve an unusual design.

Custom Waterfall – Installing a custom waterfall in your bathroom is another modern design that is gaining wide acceptance. A waterfall mounted on the wall or set on any surface in the bathroom is a great way to transform your bathroom into a place that is relaxing and rejuvenating. Including a waterfall into your bathroom design, bring unequaled healing not just to the mind but also to the body and spirit.

Bathroom paint or wallpaper you can easily combine paint and wallpaper to cover your bathroom wall. For example, you might need to use tile inside the shower cubicle but paint or apply wallpaper to the rest of the bathroom, but try not to use too many different products as your bathroom design might start to look cluttered. The important thing is to use colors, textures, and patterns that complement each other.

Adding Bathroom Accessories

Bathroom accessories can spell the style difference when it comes to your bathroom s finishing touches – the choices are plentiful. The standard accessories for bathrooms are:

toilet roll holder

soap dish

towel rail

towel ring

robe hook

bathroom shelf

toilet brush

toothbrush holder

Do not limit your selection to the accessories listed. Again, the market is overflowing with styles, sizes and, shapes and finishes. Some bathroom manufacturers accept custom-made design accessories that match other fixtures in the bathroom. The materials used to make bathroom accessories include wood, foil wrapped MDF, chrome, brass, stainless steel, glass, ceramic and plastic. Cheap bathroom accessories typically use chrome plate on steel. These are not ideal as the steel can rust and eventually the chrome will show through – better quality fitting uses chrome plate on brass. Gold plated accessories usually consist of chrome fitting with a thin, electro-plated gold finish. Be careful cleaning your bathroom accessories, many bathroom cleaners contain bleach or mild abrasives that can damage the finish of your accessories.

Camera, Lights Bathroom

When deciding which kind of lighting to use for your bathroom, be careful about the shadow trap. The shadow trap is when you look at yourself in the mirror and you will not be able to see yourself clearly. This is the same effect as when you place a flashlight under your chin in the dark and as a result, you are not able to see your face very well. The shadow trap happens when using halogen recessed lighting. It is because floodlights and halogen floodlights are focused lighting. It is still okay to use recessed floodlights in you bathroom provided you use a different type of lighting for your vanity mirror to avoid the shadow trap. You can even use a softer focused or diffused light fixture. Mount the light fixtures at eye level on either side of the mirror, shining at your face. Mounting a diffused light fixture on the wall over the mirror will combat the sharp focus of halogen floodlight shining down on your face as well.

There is plenty of advice available on the net to help you with the design and remodeling of your bathroom. Manufacturers, contractors, and designers are also willing to work with homeowners and clients with the designs of their bathrooms.
