Bathroom Décor Mistakes That Make The Room Look Really Cheap

March 15, 2020 | Leave a Comment

Having a well-organized, spacious bathroom will make your life better. Any bathroom needs to be visually pleasing, even if functionality should always be a priority. When the bathroom is very small, you need to contact specialists like Fix It Right Melbourne plumbing to get everything in order in terms of fixtures and you need to use tricks to make space look larger. Unfortunately, most homeowners have no idea how to decorate their bathrooms in an appropriate way. They end up making so many mistakes that can easily be avoided, like those presented below and that makes the entire room look really cheap.

Neglecting Bathroom Storage

This is the number one bathroom décor mistake that happens all around the world. When you do not have as much storage as you need, it is a certainty that the experience will be really bad in the room. Try to put in as much storage as you can. In the event that the space is limited, you can always choose some really interesting options that offer both functionality and space-savings. You need space that is allocated to keep your fresh towels in one place and you need vanities that include storage.

Neglecting Lighting

One of the worse bathroom design mistakes is to have the room improperly lit. In this part of the home you need many light sources or the atmosphere becomes really dull. Both task and decorative lighting are necessary. Lighting importance is usually overlooked in the bathroom. It is important to have natural light whenever possible since this is always beneficial. Also, the lighting that you choose needs to be suitable for the needs you have. For instance, if you often find yourself applying makeup, some sconces are a
great idea. Those that favor the soothing baths should consider dimmable ceiling lights for that perfect relaxing mood you want when you take a bath.

Using Way Too Many Finishes

Messy designs so often become really messy when the designer goes crazy with patterns and finishes. In most cases, if you add over 2 finishes inside the bathroom, everything ends up looking really odd. You need to flow materials in a way that is digestible for the viewer. All the floor materials should be the same and then the change can appear up your walls. When you want to use a statement color or patterns, do it on the floors.

Planning The Electrical Setup Late

Many designers say that this is a very common bathroom design mistake that appears and that makes things really complicated. You need to take care of electrical planning really early in the design phase. As a simple example, the hardwired makeup mirror always looks great when you mount it on your wall but if you plan this after the electrical setup is ready, problems appear.

Slippery Tiles

Last but not least, decorative tiles are not that great on bathroom floors if they are not built in a way to protect against the presence of water. The floor needs to be slip-resistant. This is especially the case in the event that elderly people use the bathroom.
