Bathrooms are a quintessential example of a space that, with intuitive and considered design, have the potential to be functional, beautiful, and significant in reducing our anxiety. By designing a soothing environment, we can create an oasis for us to retreat to, relax in and revitalise our souls after a long day.
Bathrooms are a particularly important source of value in any home and a fabulous bathroom can add commercial value to the property. As an investment, it is important to remember to stick to what the owner prefers and not just what the market wants or what the trends are at that point. Contrary to what many believe, buyers of new properties are more likely to buy the unique experience of how a space feels over spaces that а are devoid of personality, so infusing the space with personal style will allow all to enjoy it while one has use of it and can help the property to sell eventually.
2021 brought a design revolution in what we want from our spaces as we all spent more time in our homes. Overall people have a greater desire to be more connected to nature, to warm up their spaces with earthy tones and soft textures and to add pops of energising colour.
