subject: Creating A Bathroom With A Boutique Hotel Feel [print this page] There are various approaches that can be taken when you are redesigning a bathroom. Of course there are practicalities to be taken into consideration first of all, such as how many people will be using the bathroom on a daily basis and what you preferred arrangements are, such as whether you are opting for a bath, shower or a combination of the two. After these initial practical decisions have been made, then it is time to start exploring your options as far as dcor and aesthetics are concerned.
One of the most popular design trends in recent years, and one that is still going from strength to strength, is recreating the look and feel of a boutique hotel bathroom, which may sound daunting can be achieved for much less outlay than you might expect.
Achieving this look is all down to thorough research and careful planning, and then making thought-out purchases and focusing on statement design rather than overcrowding your bathroom with too many fixtures and fittings. First and foremost, its important to make sure that your storage needs will be met, as cluttered surfaces and cosmetics and toiletries building up around your bathroom will detract from the look you are trying to achieve, no matter what it may be.
A fitted basin vanity unit will provide ample storage space for you daily essentials, whilst keeping them all within easy reach. The surface area created by a vanity unit will afford you a spacious dressing and preparation area, so that you will not only have plenty of room in which to get ready in the mornings, but will have a luxurious amount of space to prepare for evenings out.
A mirror is a key component in any bathroom, but upgrading from your current model to an illuminated bathroom mirror, especially when combined with the vanity unit, will evoke the glamorous dressing spaces of old, using modern LED technology.
Elsewhere in the bathroom, try upgrading your radiator to a chrome-finished heated towel rail. Not only will this multi-functional unit provide you with warm, dry towels whenever you need them, but it will heat your bathroom and look fantastic at the same time. A chrome towel rail will create a focal design point in your bathroom, to draw the eye and tie the overall aesthetic of the room together.
The boutique hotel look is best represented by subtle, sophisticated styling and a clean, organised look. This can be achieved without an enormous budget just by judicious accessory and furniture choices, and knowing how the various elements of your bathroom are going to work together to create a look greater than the sum of its parts. Start researching for yourself; youll see just how easy it can be to achieve this stunning, contemporary design.
