Minimalism for the bathroom!

One name "minimalism"Already speaks for itself - a minimum of objects and parts, and a maximum of convenience, functionality and benefit. This style implies a minimum number of shades and clear graphic forms, and, of course, order and cleanliness. The bathroom is no exception, it is designed according to the same principles as any other room. Moreover, even the bathroom itself small sizes able to impress with the presence of space, if it is designed in the style of minimalism. Usually the interior of the bathroom looks extremely concise with a predominance of light shades, visually increasing space, as well as the presence of simple forms.

Minimalism bathroom color palette

The most popular and “favorite” colors for this style are white, black and gray, and in combination.

For example, if the wall is gray and there is a black finish along the perimeter of the ceiling, this design adds extraordinary expressiveness to the interior of the white room. Although the completely white or light interiors of the minimalist-style bathrooms look very impressive. For this, literally single bright accessories are enough - it can be picture or vase.

In general, there is a rule inherent in this direction - more than three shades should not be present in the interior design, moreover, the presence of one, maximum two colors is considered an ideal option.

For example, if the interior of the bathroom is made in beige tones, then a brown frame is also allowed. In other words, the contrast of dark and light shades is possible, but not burdened with textures.

Minimalism style plumbing

It just seems that equipping a room in the style of minimalism is a trifle. Quite the opposite. Since in this case there are completely no decorative elements that usually distract attention, the complexity of selecting the right items increases significantly, because literally every item should be carefully thought out. Plumbing is such an important element, even faucets and cranes - everything is important, literally every detail. Since even a crane is able to become a “highlight” of the entire interior as a whole and set the tone. By the way, today the range includes a wide variety of faucets, both built into the wall and installed directly on the sink, low and high, and most importantly - a memorable unusual shape. And remember - the cranes must have an angular, strict, and at the same time, elegant shape, but in no case, not rounded. Otherwise, all harmony may be broken due to the crane alone.

Thinking over what kind of plumbing will be, it should be taken into account that ideally this should be special hanging equipment, namely, hanging toilets, bidets and sinks - especially relevant for rooms with small areas. Such plumbing increases the space and gives it volume.
However, professionals in this area are advised to avoid rounded shapes, opting for rectangular or square bathrooms, sinks or showers.

Regarding what will happen: a bathtub or a shower cabin - everything here depends on the personal preferences of the owners. If the owner of the house is a lover of hydromassage or spa treatments, then, of course, he will prefer an acrylic bathtub of an arbitrary shape. If the choice falls in favor of the shower, then we should not forget that it should be airy and extremely easy in visual perception - the choice of such models today is also unusually wide.
The most important requirement for plumbing - it must be unusual and non-standard.

Minimalist bathroom ceiling, floor and wall decoration

In a nutshell, minimalism can be described as follows: dear simplicity. Perhaps a more precise definition cannot be found. Simple lines and expensive material, for example, such as light wood, stone, metal, marble, polished granite, glass, smooth limestone - all this is characteristic of a minimalist bathroom. The materials used for decoration should be wear-resistant, attractive and always of high quality. However, professional designers recommend using several materials at once, a combined finish option, including the original combination, and not focus on any one, even the most expensive and luxurious material.

Ideal if the ceiling, floor and walls are made in pastel colors. This is an extremely important point, because in this case, you can achieve ease of perception of the room. Pastel shades do not attract much attention and therefore are optimal for decorating the bathroom. But you can attract attention with the help of the bath itself or the longitudinal steps on the walls, thereby emphasizing the geometry used in the interior.

Furniture in a minimalist bathroom

Furniture in the style of minimalism should not have unnecessary details, should be distinguished by simple rectangular shapes and easy to install. Usually it is built-in to free up space, which is the main difference between this style. Different shelves with numerous lockers are completely eliminated. And here is a big mirror, which also helps to increase the space, will be very helpful. It can be absolutely framed and even occupy a whole wall.

Minimalism bathroom lighting

For this room lighting should be muffled enough so as not to strain eyesight. Well, if there are special niches - they can perfectly accommodate lamps. It’s very good to organize lighting over plumbing or a mirror - this will create additional coziness and comfort.

You can also use spotlights.

Multi-level lighting is also widely welcomed as usually a bathroom is divided into several zones.
