A luxury bathroom should contain all the high-end bathroom features on the market. This bathroom is usually larger than many with a design objective to create a soothing spa-like haven where rejuvenating pampering takes place each and every day. At Kitchen and Bath Ideas, we believe every luxury bathroom is made to fit its owner’s needs. We take pride in designing a space that especially for you. Following is a guide to all the design elements that your luxury bathroom should include.
Marble tops for vanities and as surrounds for tubs and showers are considered a sign of luxury. You will find that they are available in a variety of styles from elegant marble pieces to the more basic. It may even be possible to custom order a tub and shower with a particular material in mind. In most cases, granite or marble is used for the tub and shower fronts as well as the bath itself. There are of course hundreds, if not thousands, of options that are not marble as well. At Kitchen and Bath Ideas we offer limitless choices that can elevate your bathroom.
For the walls, a classic look is to choose a rich paint color and luxury tile finishes. Wallpaper can also be used, as long as you consider that it should not be placed in areas that will be exposed to a lot of moisture. The key is to choose colors, tiles, or patterns that have a high end feel to them. Tiles made from stone, patterned, or laid in a custom style are all great choices as well.
In regards to the vanity, most luxury bathrooms boast a vanity set that includes a wall-mounted basin. They are available in a variety of styles and materials including porcelain and glass. Some wall-mounted units even include a water-heater attachment. If you prefer a more minimalist approach, choose a vanity without a basin at all. This style looks great with bare floors or exposed brick.
Another item for the luxury bathroom is a high-end shower system. The choices range from full body massages, handheld shower heads and foot massages. Choose the one that fits your needs and style. One trend that has become popular with luxury bathroom designers is to combine these two very different items. Instead of buying a separate shower system, you can buy a mixer that is part of a larger unit and has options for different shower experiences.
Lighting is another area where designers are going above and beyond the call of duty. Chandeliers and wall sconces can be added to help the bathroom look luxurious. Other options include LED and dimmer lights, allowing you to customize the mood of the room. Track lighting is becoming quite popular as it provides accent lighting while simultaneously brightening up the entire space. You can also find special lights designed to fit over the tub, shower, or dressing area of the bathroom.
Another way to add luxury to your bathroom is with flooring. Marble floors are a popular choice for many reasons. Firstly, they are extremely durable and hard wearing. Secondly, they add a luxurious feel to any bathroom and can help make it feel like a spa. Finally, marble floors are beautiful and add elegance to any decorating plan.
These are just a few ideas that can help you transform your bathroom into a luxurious space.
