Have you recently found yourself taking a bath, hoping to find some relaxation and tranquility at the end of a long, hard day only to find that your tub is too small or the decor out of date? While the hot water can do wonders to help relax your body, you may be distracted picking apart the design of your bathroom, leaving your mind to work overtime in the attempt to find a solution. Or perhaps you don’t even have any hot water so you’re sitting in a lukewarm bath and it hits you, this bathroom needs a serious revamp. You’ll soon realize that you might need to call someone who can offer services to help you with, not only your hot water issues, but the remodel process as a whole. A lot of the time when we move into a house, if the bathroom is outdated yet fully functioning, we leave it to just get that little bit older. If you’ve faced a similar situation, then it may be time to consider a bathroom remodel.
An elegant and modern design to your bathroom can give you the relaxing atmosphere you’ve been craving all these years. That being said, if there are any issues with things like the plumbing in the bathroom, this can wreak havoc on your redesign plans before you’ve even started. You might be keen for a new design, but where do you look? How do you know what’s in style and which style best reflects your tastes? Here, we’ve gathered 3 popular bathroom design trends to help you take a step in the right direction towards the bathroom of your dreams.
Bigger Showers and Freestanding Bathtubs
No one wants to feel cramped in the bathroom, especially when trying to relax in a hot shower or a soothing bath. Some homeowners opt for a large shower instead of a tub. Many open-spaced showers are rethinking the shower niche. They now include all sorts of features, including:
- A built-in stereo system
- Controllable water pressure and temperature
- Steam features
- Heated floors
- Built-in benches
- And more
Freestanding bathtubs have also grown in prominence and show no signs of stopping. You can even invest in some bath side panels to complete the classy look of your freestanding bathtub. If you have the space, why not combine a large, freestanding tub with an open-space shower?
Custom Storage
Gone are the days of settling for just a small closet and a few drawers. Homeowners are now looking to customize their vanities according to their storage needs. There are still plenty who prefer to have a sleek, modern bathroom with little vanity space, but many dream about expanding the amount of storage space within their bathrooms, especially those with growing families.
When you begin planning for your bathroom remodel, we recommend considering how much storage space you’d like in your new bathroom and work with your contractor to design the perfect vanity for your needs.
Three Dimensional or Geometric Tiles
Geometric tiles are continuing to grow in popularity. Typical bathroom walls can look flat and boring, while these tile patterns can add personality and depth to your bathroom. There are multiple options to consider: various patterns, color schemes, and the option to change up the pattern from wall to wall as evident in the bathroom pictured above.
Whatever your taste, meet with an experienced bathroom remodeling contractor that also has expertise in, or access to, quality design. If you’re interested in discussing bathroom remodeling in Chattanooga, TN, then be sure to contact Broadleaf Residential for more information.
