    Gone are the days when bathrooms were a hidden utility room. Now a day’s people love to make their bathroom look fabulous like a show piece. Now bathrooms include everything from TV to fireplace to the breath taking designs. If you are looking for the bathroom designs then I would like you to get familiar with the Vincente Wolf island en suite design. This interior gives you the feel of being underwater by its green sea foam glass walls. It is the perfect blend of the past and modern elements gives it the contemporary still timeless beauty. It includes all appealing bathroom accessories.

    This bathroom design gives you spa like treatment. The large stone tub is so authentic. This bathtub is placed next to the glass walls hence utilizing the space completely. The outdoor nature gets reflected on the painted glass. The most of bathroom is covered with limestone giving a monolithic feel. While the antique 18th century gilded Georgian mirror adds the visual interest.

    I love to experiment with colours. I cannot stick to one design for very long. I need change. Lately my attention got focused on my bathroom. I really felt the need to change its interior. But this time I wanted to bring in flowers. And the instant idea of having Floral Bathroom Wallpaper struck me. I came across very pretty wallpaper with beautiful white flowers and brown background. It goes completely with my bathroom furniture and bathroom bath.
     
    Floral Bathroom Wallpaper

    I was so happy to get this elegant wall paper placed in my bathroom. But then I was informed about steps I should take to prevent the wallpaper from getting damaged. The wall paper needs to be protected from the steam and splashes so i need to fit an extractor fan as it dries out the steam quickly. The area near the basin and bath need to be fixed with a low iron glass to protect the wall paper from the splashes. And a finally after papering, a coat of Varnish to protect the surface from humidity. And hence after these all steps I got my lovely floral print bathroom.

    Children’s bathroom is one of the most difficult tasks to do. This room is one such room that is utilised the most. Children rarely appreciate when their parents try to decorate their bathroom as it displays generation gap. You need to know for whom you are decorating the bathroom. Whether you are decorating for your son or daughter, you need to select the bathroom furniture designs accordingly. We can clearly understand that the bathroom interior completely depends on the gender of your kid because if it’s your son he will love to have cars, bugs, etc and its a girl she will want Barbie in the design.

    kids bathroom

    You need to select the accessories that your kid loves. If your kid is amused, attracted towards cars than you can get curtains, and towels that has pictures and designs of cars. Generally, children love cartoons so you can get rugs and paste pictures of Tom and Jerry, Disney cartoons and Ben Ten. Tumblers of various shapes attract kids. If it’s a boy then a dinosaur shaped tumbler will go well and if it is for a girl then a tumbler that shows a delicate and lovely princess is a perfect. You can also hunt for various other things like a soap holder or soap in different and attractive shapes. You can also pay attention on small details like tissue dispenser, soap dishes, basket handle, etc and decorate the bathroom. You can also buy some rubber faces of your kid’s favourite clown or cartoon character.

    kids bathroom

    You need to be mentally prepared with the fact that one day your child will grow and loose interest in all these cartoon characters and clowns. So always, decorate with accessories that can be replaced after few years. Here I would like to conclude by saying that you need to understand your kid’s interest if you genuinely want to bring smile on his face.

    Bathroom is the best place for the relaxation and so too have a beautiful ambience is the prior requirement. The latest trend is too having neat and colourful ceramic tiles placed to bring life to the boring bathroom. Ceramic bathroom floor tiles are very popular for the durability, the safety while walking on the wet surface and the resistance to dampness they provide. And the interesting part is any bathroom accessories looks good with them. But I find the oval shaped Bathroom mirror along with the oval basin giving the right look.

    Ceramic String tiles collection

    While remodelling your bathroom the dynamic ceramic tiles or the dark deep wall colour makes a great difference. It has the ease of cleaning. To make bathroom more striking, amazing patterns and the floor accents can be added. The colour selection given by these tiles is so impressive. It assures that whatever style your bathroom may be or you want it to be it will get you the decorative style tiles for it.

    We all are addicted of bathing after a long tiring day. An electric shower is the best option if you want instant hot water to enjoy your bath. You can always save on water if you have electric showers as you will not have to keep the water running to get warm water. In addition, if your boiler stops working you can get hot water if you have an electric shower. However, you need to see to it that you do not face a power cut. You will not need a plumber to get the electric shower installed. Today we will see how you can do it yourself.

    Electric showers

    When you get the electric shower, you will receive a template or an instruction paper. You will be able to know how the shower needs to be positioned.  Carefully do the marking on the wall wherever you want to install the unit. Now drill pilot holes on the marks that you made seeing in your template. You also need to drill a hole for the copper piping that is used to link the water. Remember that this hole should be wide by half an inch. Now attach the pipe to the shower unit and water. Remember to use copper piping and give it a connection to the water valve. The shower unit should be attached to the wall after connecting the showerhead to the cooper piping’s end. Let me tell you that an electric shower requires a pull switch so that the shower can be turned on and off. In order to install that pull switch you need to drill a hole through the ceiling. Once that is done run the pull cord in the ceiling through the hole which is attached to the power source and then you to your shower unit. Ensure that you give a covering to the pull switch to avoid any dangerous circumstances.

    Use the above steps carefully and you will be able to do the installation of your electric shower yourself and save time and money.

    Every lady loves to get a trip of the spa. But unfortunately it gets possible only on special occasion. But isn’t there a way to get the same treatment daily? Yes of course by having minor bathroom renovation. It’s the great way to pamper you daily. And to begin let’s start with the door knobs. If your door hardware is boring then probably you never noticed it as the design element. They are the first bathroom accessories. If you are having an old fashioned door knob change it to the new cheerful art glass door knobs. And the Moon and Star Shower Door Knob is just the right choice.

    Moon and Star Door Knob

    This knob has numerous stars and a beautiful moon designed on it. These are simple to install and are available at lower cost. You may not be sure whether a glass door knob would be enough to alter the look of your bathroom but just try out once and switch from the old knobs to this wonderful moon-star-door knob and find your room shining with the spark of this glassy knob and you will definitely appreciate the difference. The stars shine brightly and illuminate the room. Thus enter the bathroom with a pleasant feeling.

Now you need not to worry about that as we present to you yet another creation of Kaldewei that will turn your heads. Yes you guessed it right I am talking about the multi-functional Relax lounger. For those who are new to this let me tell you that this lounger can be converted into a bathtub, a seat or a storage option. This multi-functional unit is specially designed on the bathtub designed by Kaldewei. You can lie on it and it has been fixed from the four corners. The upholstery is not only water repellent but also hand-sewn and is made from high quality material.

    Kaldewei Relax Lounger
     
    The user can relax on top of the bathtub using the separate cushion and use the concealed space for storage. You can join all the pieces together with the help of the connectors and this will make you a spacious lounger. You can create one individual panel in the middle of the bath and this will form a bath bridge, which can be used to keep drinks, books and magazines in easy reach. The central idea of designing this multifunctional furniture was to reuse the largest furniture of the bathroom that is the Bathtub.

    Most of us like to design a bathroom that matches our status. We concentrate on every aspect of bathroom designing but forget the most important aspect that is the bathroom faucets. Bath taps play an important role in enhancing the looks of a bathroom. Its not difficult to look for luxuries that match the day to day needs. One such elegant and graceful design is of the Swan Faucet. It has an aesthetic and modern look blended with simple technology. Specially designed for ultra-modern bathrooms, the Swan Faucet has been sculpted with utmost care and skill. The best view of the faucet is when you see the water flowing down the swan’s neck.  

    Swan Faucet

    A simple tap placed on the facet’s head is used to activate the water flow. The pressure of water is determined by the title on the spout.  The temperature of the water can also be controlled, you just need to move the head of water either towards the right or left. The Swan Faucet is designed to add a luxurious touch to your bathroom but the best part is it also gives you many appreciative notes. Then why spoil the interior of your bathroom by using a normal faucet. Use the best and enhance your bath space further.
