Bathrooms updates without the blowout

When it comes to updating the home, bathrooms are frequently on this wish list however, are relegated to sometime in the future in favour of living area and outdoor projects that are perceived to add more value or give you more bang for your buck.

There is good news if you are considering a bathroom update and there are tips and tricks that can help you get the best look for less, as well as ensuring your bathroom is on-trend and stylish for years to come.

• If you have the space and the budget, a freestanding bath can be used to create a striking focal point.  To create a luxe hotel spa feel that you will enjoy for years to come – choose a deep bath in neutral colours.
• Giving thought to how you can utilise floors and walls to create a feeling of space is a great idea for maximising the smaller rooms like bathrooms in your home.  Sticking to neutral flooring will make your bathroom appear larger, and you can build on enhancing the feeling of space by installing bench to ceiling mirrored walls.
• If you are already working from a neutral base, consider replacing fittings such as taps and shower heads for instant upgrade impact.  Choose matching fixtures and fittings such as large rain shower heads to achieve a contemporary refreshed look in your bathroom.
• The best way to save on making your bathroom look like a show piece is to decorate and style the space in the same way you would any other room in your home.  Home décor trends and in particular colour preferences come and go.  Keeping your foundations neutral and timeless allows you to add pops of the latest colour, eclectic wall art and decorative elements that best suit your personality and keep your bathroom look up to date – on virtually any budget.
