Extra Touches that Elevate your Bathroom Renovation

One of the keys to a beautiful, well functioning bathroom lies in the details. As you plan for your bathroom remodel you may be in search of a few elements that make a unique impact overall. We're here to share some ideas that that elevate the look of your bathroom and enable you to add your personality and design style. 

 



Shower Features 


Let's not wait until the end to discuss these difference makers. Adding a shower niche shelf elevates the look of your shower and allows you to beautifully display necessities. You can opt for a different pattern or design here to really show off this feature. This is one element that clients really love to design.

 

Many customers find the look of a combination shower head and hand sprayer sophisticated and efficient. Besides rinsing off in the shower, it's great for cleaning pets, kids or the shower itself. It's a useful feature that enhances the function of any type of shower, from a simple shower-tub combo to a large spa-style shower.

 

Some clients request a shaving niche or foot ledge. This is a popular addition for those that prefer to skip a built-in bench. This simple detail makes shaving your legs a breeze. 

 

Another minimal cost upgrade is your shower drain cover. Several clients have opted for the modern linear drain cover. It's a simple addition to your shower that makes a big impact by creating a clean, unified look.




Bathroom Hardware


Household items can be highly functional and and beautifully designed -- even in the bathroom. These subtle details significantly influence the design and showcase your personality. Whether your finish preference in black, gold, silver or mixing metals there are countless options to give your space that finished look and make it uniquely you.

 

From the cabinet pulls to the towel racks, all fixtures support the visual appeal and efficiency of your bathroom. Bathroom hardware selections include towel bars, wall mounts, doorknobs, cabinet pulls, decorative handles, and faucets. There are numerous opportunities to add touches of your personality to your bathroom design.


Lighting


Bathroom lighting is often overlooked, but it incredibly important for aesthetic and practical reasons. Appropriate illumination is essential for daily grooming tasks, setting the right mood, and enhancing the overall look of your bathroom.

 

Bathroom lighting can come in different forms, such as a lighted bathroom wall mirror and vanity light fixtures. Two things to consider is the size of your space and whether you want to opt for energy efficient options. Energy efficient selections may be more cost upfront however, they pay for themselves over time with lower electricity bills and few replacements. Energy efficient examples include LED light bulbs, natural daylighting systems, motion sensor fixtures, dimmers, task lights and solar-powered lights. 

 

Color temperature sets the tone for any room and it's equally important in your bathroom space. Clear blue or cool tones set the stage for a  soothing spa environment. Warm yellow hues provide a cosy atmosphere with plenty of light. Bulbs in the 3000K-4000K range provide a good mid-range of brightness without over doing it.


Mirrors


Bathroom mirrors are a great way to add style and sophistication to your bathroom. Mirrors can be used to make the most of the available space by reflecting natural light and brighten up the area. They can also be used to create the illusion of more space in a smaller bathroom by providing depth and dimension. Mirrors can also be used to create a focal point.

 

Things to consider when selecting bathroom lighting:

  • Bathroom size

  • Style of the mirror compliments the look of your bathroom design

  • LED lighting options

  • Frameless mirrors

  • Adjustable tilt

  • Adding a magnifying mirror


We love details and hopefully this has inspired you with some extra touches to elevate your bathroom renovation.
