Different sink styles for your bathroom

A bathroom is far more than just ‘functional’ today. It is a personal space, and most of us love to make it our own. Whether this means creating a relaxing spa, a sensual haven, ultra-modern simplicity, or a look of lavish luxury, having actual space is often an issue for most homeowners. However, you can give yourself the visual illusion of expansion with a few good suggestions that we are going to share with you.

Paint the ceiling the color of the walls

This is especially true if you have oddly shaped low areas in your ceiling or if your ceiling is angled. You can make those unusual shapes fade away by painting everything a unifying color. It cuts down on planes intersecting and the number of transitions. This leaves the room more expansive and cleaner.

Keep everything in the same value/color/tone

Of course, this means within reason. You do not want to have light tile and dark walls, simply because the two are going to clash. It will make your bathroom appear much smaller rather than larger. However, if you do want to create contrast, use it on an object rather than a space. For example, a light fixture or a low cabinet.

If you have a linen cabinet that sticks out or just want a few more inches of storage, burying it into the wall can be great. You will need to reframe the walls in that area, but that should not be a problem. Just having a few extra inches can make all the difference in appearance.

Use clear glass in your shower

You create the impression of another wall if you use textured glass. It functions as a visual barrier within the room, even if you have some privacy and still manage to get some light in. By having clear glass, you are making the space feel far more open.

Get large mirrors

If you have a mirror that reaches the ceiling, there is nothing else you can do that will make a bathroom feel grander. It makes the space grow while doubling the light’s impact if you have lighting installed on top of the mirror.

The importance of being prepared

Once you have the bathroom the way you want it, it is important that you keep it that way. This is why it is important that all installations or renovations in your bathroom be done by qualified staff. This is not just true when it comes to tiling or installing a sink, but it is especially important for anything plumbing related. Because if you have plumbing issues, your entire bathroom may need to be redone. Always be sure to opt for a quality provider like Dr. Pipe Drain and Plumbing for plumbing works.
