The beautiful interior of the bathroom should be as convenient, functional and useful as possible. Many factors are involved in creating a harmonious design: decoration, color, furniture, plumbing.
Decoration Materials
Ceramic tile has been and remains the most reliable material. Among its advantages: durability, versatility (can imitate the texture of wood, stone), affordable price, ease of care, a wide variety. It’s easy to pick up products specifically for floors or walls. Many manufacturers make sets where the combination of colors in the interior of the bathroom is selected specially. One of the fashionable modern solutions has become a mosaic in the interior of the bathroom.
When choosing materials for decoration, one should not forget about wall panels, which are cheap and do not require special preparation of walls. Most often, panels are chosen for finishing the ceiling, although there are many options for stylish wall decoration.
This year, the use of natural materials in the bathroom is especially popular. For wall and floor cladding, wood treated with special materials, stone, volcanic structures and crystals are used.
Color spectrum
When decorating, it is important to determine the color background of the room, as it forms an impression of the environment. Do not also forget about the main feature of shades - visually expand or reduce the space.
It is widely believed that the white color in the interior is the best for decoration. The interior of a white bathtub looks boring. However, too dark shades are depressing.
The most appropriate use of the following shades: bluish, pale green, ivory, sand. The prevailing shade is considered basic. The interior of the bathroom in Khrushchev can be designed on the basis of two shades. Colors can be close tones (blue and cyan, sand and light brown).
The interior of a small bathroom looks good with a contrast of soft shades. If you definitely want colorful accents, then they can be decorated in the form of decorative elements - narrow horizontal / vertical stripes, borders, individual inserts. In bathrooms with patterned finishes, it is advisable to install plumbing only in white.
We must remember the ability of shades to give the room a mood. In this case, you should focus only on personal preferences:
- light yellow, light green, pale gray create a cozy atmosphere in the room;
- saturated shades of blue, copper, coral give the atmosphere a peppy look;
- Silver, lavender or sky blue visually add room to the room.
Choosing a color palette for a large room, you can show maximum imagination, and even with the design of compact rooms you can not forget about the importance of visual expansion of the space by selecting the right shades.
The choice of furniture and plumbing
In a room of any size, you can create a comfortable atmosphere if you choose the right pieces of furniture and plumbing, as well as properly position them.
Furniture
Creating the interior of the bathroom and toilet, it is necessary to take into account the area of the room, the needs of residents. For convenient storage of several towels, cabinets and cupboards are suitable.The best option is corner cabinets. For small hygiene items, it is best to install mirrored cabinets above the sinks.
An excellent offer of some manufacturers is furniture sets with sanitary ware (washbasins). In some long countertops, a washbasin cut is made on the side and it becomes possible to equip drawers for clothes under the canvas or install a washing machine. A good idea is a hanging cabinet in the bathroom with a washing machine.
Plumbing
So that the room does not become a warehouse of plumbing, you need to be responsible for the choice of models:
- a small rectangular bathtub (up to 150 cm long), an angular model or a sitting one is installed in a small room;
- shower cabin is an excellent alternative to the bath. A compromise option is a model with high sides, in which you can conveniently bathe your children or take a bath while sitting;
- when choosing a washbasin, it is not always rational to install the smallest model, since when washing your hands, spray will fly all over the room;
- an excellent option is the installation of an angular washbasin - the "dead" zone is activated and the model can be selected in a good size. The disadvantage is that the layout of not all rooms allows angular installation of plumbing;
- The compact floor toilet is the most common model. There are also suspended models on the market that suggest a hidden tank location. This option is advisable to use in spacious rooms or in small rooms with niches.
In most apartments, bathrooms are modest in size. Most often, a small toilet is separated from the bathroom. In such apartments, you can slightly increase the area of the bathroom by combining rooms. It’s impossible to add a lot of furniture to such rooms, but the problem of a small toilet in the apartment will be solved.
The problem of small areas is solved by rational placement of objects and installation of things with additional functions. A shower box is installed instead of a separate bathtub and shower. A toilet model with a bidet function is selected.
Bathroom interior
The style of the bathroom and toilet may be different. However, we must admit that in small rooms of 4 square meters, the design of certain styles looks better.
- The modern interior of the bathroom involves the presence of traditional plumbing and furniture. Fresh images are created using minimal decor and a combination of finishing materials (stone floor and ceramic on the wall, concrete walls and wood panels). Installation of wooden furniture brings comfort and tranquility to the room. The glass sink looks great and practically "dissolves" in space. Suspended plumbing designs stylishly emphasize the interior of the bathroom in a modern style.
- Marine style is formed by reflecting the theme of the sea. The universal color for the interior is blue and all its shades. To create a natural contrast, it is better to install plumbing in white. The use of decorative bright elements will give the design of the room dynamics. When decorating walls, you can use tile inserts in yellow or orange. Mosaic inserts in the form of paintings look attractive. The marine interior of the bathroom with a shower cabin is emphasized by lamps and mirrors, decorated in the form of starfish, portholes.
- Thanks to the minimalism style, even in a compact room you can create the appearance of space. The simple interior of a small bathroom is created by simple and simple forms. The most common color shades are white, black, gray, sand. The interior of the bathroom in white is welcome, but the combination of suitable tones also gives the room an interesting look. The basic rule of this style is the presence in the design of no more than three colors (ideally, two). Brown furniture looks great in a beige bathroom.All plumbing (toilet bowls, bath with shower, faucets) differs in angular shapes, even lines.
- The classic bathroom interior is best suited for large areas. It is a large space that creates an atmosphere of luxury. Due to the central location of the bathtub and the use of natural materials in the decoration, the room shows chic and sophistication.
Thus, it becomes clear that there are a lot of ideas for decorating bathrooms. The main thing when choosing the right one is to be guided by the dimensions of the room, technical capabilities and your preferences.
