Bathroom design is really exciting these days.ย Whether you are a fan of the quick and invigorating shower or a long leisurely soak in the tub,ย your ideal bathroom is possible.ย Usingย beautiful, easier care materials, intelligent layouts and pops of personality, your designerย can create an environment in which youโll love starting and ending the day. Consider this your shortlist of things to consider, straight from our Normandy Designers.
Fabulousย Fakes
If youโve been flipping through images of recently renovated or newly built bathrooms, your first thought is probably about how gorgeous allย theย natural stone looks.ย That is probably followed quickly by concern over how you would care for it your own home. Donโt let that dissuade you. Normandy Designers are using tile that realistically mimics natural stone, but comes with a fraction of the maintenance. These fabulous fakes open up a world of possibilities that many people would have passed on previously. Now, you can have the look you love, be it sleek and modern orย old-worldย elegance.
Patternedย Tile
Liven up your floors, walls, shower niche or bench with a pop of patterned tile.ย You can go all out or add just an accent of your favorite geometric, printedย image or other expression of your personal style. Picking tile can feel like being a kid in a candy store. Donโt relegate yourself to just the basic vanilla, explore the options and have some fun.
Sleekย Universalย Design
Most of us will go through a time in life when weย areย recoveringย from an injuryย or resting up from an illness. In those times, simple things like bathing can be more difficult. Makingย design choices that can help an aging or recovering personย canย bring much needed dignity in these moments. Fortunately for all of us who consider ourselves forever young, a bathroomย can be made more universal by adding simple things like a bench and handheld shower or a tub with deckย for stability and easier ins and outs. If you are renovating your forever home or just concerned about what the next few years might bring, definitely discuss these options with your designer.
