Luxurious and practical bathroom design ideas
7th July 2022
Creating the ultimate bathroom sanctuary in your home is exciting. Enriching colourways, sumptuous Egyptian towels, divine scented candles are the finishing touches to transform a bathroom into your personal idyll. Yet, it’s the practical bathroom design ideas that hold the key to creating a functional but fulfilling space for your household to enjoy.
Luxury bathroom essentials
The adage ‘fail to prepare, prepare to fail’ is true for luxury bathroom design. Designing a bathroom with intent makes it work hard for you, without looking like it’s trying. As well as having the wow factor, the right amount of space needs to be dedicated to the function for a truly balanced bathroom design.
Whether you shower more than bathe, apply your makeup in the bathroom, or want the bathroom as an adult-only tranquil zone, it’s crucial you identify how you are going to use the space to maximise design efficiency.
Baths
There’s a huge range of luxury bath styles and materials to choose from, whether to complement or contrast with the rest of the room, it’s an opportunity to create a stunning focal point for the bathroom scheme. Consider a stone freestanding bath, highly practical (durable and easy to clean) but also utterly tactile and striking. The mighty but compact Jopling 1565 provides a deep bathing experience, whereas the glorious Larkin creates a bold statement. Proportion is all important for a balanced and successful bathroom design.
Basins
The type of bathroom basin you choose is guided by the space available and who and how it is to be used. Vanity units provide significant storage and are customisable to meet your bathroom goals. Regardless of whether you opt for a timeless and classic under-counter sink, or a contemporary stone counter-top basin, it’s vital it blends with the style of bathroom for a cohesive bathroom look.
Bathroom taps and brassware are style elements that also need to be a practical choice. While wall mounted or basin mounted 3 hole taps embody elegance, if there are children in the home, a 2 hole mixer tap where the temperature can be easily controlled is prudent.
Showers
Recent top-tier luxury bathroom designs include oversized walk-in showers for two with double shower heads and stylish shower controls – would this fit in your home? Maybe not, but you can see how a big shower space remains the ultimate in luxe. When it comes to showers, think big – or at least as big as the room can handle.
To achieve a luxury finish, integrate the waste in the floor wet-room style, so the shower space looks and feels as large as possible without the visual disruption of a stand-out shower tray. Choose from either a matt white or gloss white shower tray matched to the finish of the other bathroom furniture.
Investing time to plan your bathroom design allows you to make the most of every inch of bathroom space. With surfaces clear of clutter, bathroom furniture to add style and substance, and the calming influence of uninterrupted lines, your bathroom experience hits a new level of personal sanctuary.
