Bathroom designing is an important aspect of house building, whether it is building a new house, or remodeling an existing one. Bathrooms reflect the personal tastes and preferences as well as the status and standard of living of the homeowner. They are the most personal space in the house, ideal for relaxing after a long day or for indulging in beauty care. Hence, bathroom design is gaining a lot of importance today.
There are several things to be considered while designing bathrooms. These are: the colors, forms and textures, the tones and proportions, the lines and shapes, the warmth in the room, the accessories required, the beauty aspects like sculptures/figurines/paintings or flowers, the look: classic / stylish / trendy / casual / plain / natural / antique / Mediterranean / oriental, and the overall effect. All these aspects depend upon the personal tastes and preferences of the homeowner. Some people prefer to be as close to nature as possible while others would prefer to include all modern amenities and gadgets. Some may fancy practicality while someone may cross the conventional just to try out new possibilities.
Bathroom designing would start from the color of the walls and the flooring. The rest of the accessories can be based on these two aspects. Bathrooms can also be designed on the basis of a particular theme: flowers/ all- white/ wood/ marble/ chic/ modern/ modular/ animals/ fairy or cartoon characters for kids etc, depending on the rest of the house. The lighting should also be designed so that the fittings do not cast gloomy shadows across the room. Recessed lighting fixtures are also very popular these days. Care should be taken to hide unsightly pipelines and plumbing fittings away from view. Supply of hot or cold water depends on the water pressure system. The placement of doors and windows is another important aspect to be considered. All these are just the basic things to be considered in bathroom design though they go a long way in making the place beautiful as well as comfortable.
