Peace and tranquility are key elements of bathroom design. After all, it’s the house’s equivalent of an oasis. In this blog, local bathroom renovation company DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Reno shares five tips on how to turn your bathroom into a place of tranquility.
- Declutter. Remove the clutter from your bathroom and get rid of any items you don’t need or use. In addition to helping keep the bathroom clean, decluttering can help you decide on the bathroom’s design and whether you should proceed with a full-scale remodel. Decluttering is also known for its mental health benefits, such as helping relieve stress and anxiety.
- Plan your storage. A good storage strategy will help keep your bathroom neat and organized. A typical bathroom remodel involves optimizing storage systems and deciding which ones work best for you. Ask yourself whether you’re more comfortable having linens, toiletries and other contents of your bathroom shelves in view or keeping them hidden behind doors.
- Create a calming atmosphere. Your choice of colors, lighting fixtures and bathroom accessories all contribute to your bathroom’s atmosphere or ambience. Think about the things that you feel would help create a calm and relaxing atmosphere — a light blue color palette, candlelight and ambient music are among the most popular — and consider how they can be incorporated into the bathroom design. Variations in shades of blue can help create a calming environment without looking monochromatic. Candle niches can create a safe candlelit bathroom, or you can have dimmable lighting fixtures to simulate the experience.
- Choose relaxing fabrics. Soft fabrics like cotton, linen or wool can bring comfort and warmth to your bathroom. They can also create a nice contrast to tile and other hard surfaces typically found in bathrooms.
