How To Design a Luxe Bathroom

Without a doubt, the bathroom is one of the most essential rooms in a home. It’s where you can kickstart your day with a refreshing shower and unwind in a magnificent tub after a long day of work.

And it doesn’t hurt if that bathroom looks as though it’s straight from a five-star hotel.

 

Luckily, luxury like that isn’t limited to a hotel room. For a comfortable, functional and luxurious bathroom space in your home, consider these design tips for your very own bathroom glow-up.

 

Make the most of the space

 

What a luxe bathroom means to you might be different to the next person, but if there’s one thing we can all agree on, it’s that a luxury bathroom feels spacious.

 

Even the smallest bathrooms feel sophisticated and modern with the right design choices. A walk-in shower with frameless glass, for example, makes your space feel bigger and more luxurious. The type of vanity you install will also make all the difference. Rather than a floor-mounted one, check out a floating vanity with shelving - with more of the floor visible, the bathroom will appear larger to the naked eye. Plus, floating vanities naturally bring that touch of high-end.

 

But wait, there’s more. Another way to maximise your space is recessed cabinetry or mirror cabinets. They create the illusion of space while providing storage for all your everyday bathroom essentials. Not to mention, they’ll keep the benchtop free from clutter too.

 

Statement pieces

 

Illuminated LED bathroom mirrors in various shapes and sizes can be the perfect statement piece for your bathroom, and they’re something you wouldn’t see in the average home. They exude a sense of luxury and elegance, basking your space in a soft glow.

 

If you’re more of a bath person, however, then your luxe bathroom needs a freestanding bath. As its name suggests, a freestanding bath isn’t built against a wall – you can admire it from every angle.

 

In all dimensions, from rectangle to egg-shaped, a luxurious freestanding bath can make your bathroom a true standout space.

 

Let the light shine

 

Lots of natural light makes your bathroom feel more open and spacious, so let it shine! Our hot tip is to set the mirror to reflect natural light, which will make the room appear more spacious.

 

If you’re lacking in natural light, then consider installing a feature light as an artistic focal point in your bathroom that will instantly draw attention.

 

It’s all in the details

 

Impress your guests with the use of bold tapware and lavish fixtures in tones like brushed bronze or gun-metal grey. It could be as simple as switching out the showerhead from something basic to more bespoke, elevating your bathroom to the next level. If you want to recreate that hotel feeling in your home, consider a rainfall showerhead.

 

Feature tiles will ultimately depend on your style. But if you look at what’s trending, then deep greens and tranquil teal reign supreme to create a luxury oasis. And, if you’re working with a small space, consider larger tiles. Fewer grout lines mean more flow in your bathroom and less cleaning.

 

A little luxury for everyone

 

Whether you have a small or large bathroom space to work with, lots of natural light or very little – we’re passionate about delivering spaces that you will love.
