Ideas for Bathroom Designs

Your bathroom should be the place in your home where you can unwind from a hard day at work. Unfortunately most bathrooms are sterile looking and unimaginative. When designing a home bathroom you want to make sure you're making the atmosphere relaxing and inviting.

Beach Theme

Many people choose to create a beach theme for their bathroom. You can achieve this theme by choosing blues, whites and yellows to decorate your bathroom. For example, you can install a white pedestal sink, paint the walls light blue and add bright sunny beach pictures to complete the look.

Spa Theme

A nice relaxing theme can be a spa theme. A spa sink would be more elaborate and decorative than the sink in the beach themed bathroom. Paint the walls a dark relaxing color such as deep purple or dark red. Install shelves around the bathroom where you can put fresh flowers and candles.

Countryside Cottage

Countryside cottage can be a cute and easy theme to spice up your bathroom. Look for wicker bathroom furniture, such as a towel stand, to place around your bathroom. You can paint the walls a distressed white using a sponge to create a shabby painted look. Decorate with light pinks, blues and yellows.

Man's Bathroom

Some couples may have a separate his and her bathroom. To make a bathroom manlier yet still achieve an inviting theme, choose dark colors like brown or deep blue. Keep the decorations simple and consider hanging industrial style mirrors instead of pictures.
