Atmosphere In The Guest Bathroom - Planning And Design

in bathrooms •  5 years ago 

The bathroom tells visitors a lot about hosts.

The #bathroom and #toilet used by overnight guests should, therefore, be planned and furnished with the same care as any other room in your own home. After all, your guests want to feel at home with you.

Feel-good Atmosphere In The Bathroom

Does every morning start with a coffee? Not at all! After waking up, most people start by going to the Bathroom and toilet. Your guests will feel the same if they stay with you overnight. The atmosphere in the bathroom and guest toilet is, therefore, a decisive factor in getting the day off to a good start.

Cleanliness and hygiene are a matter of course. The design plays a decisive role in the feel-good atmosphere, but practical use should not be neglected. If the guest bathroom is not one of the most frequently used rooms in the house, owners usually want to plan as little space as possible for it.

The Basic Equipment

On the other hand, visitors should be able to move naturally in the bathroom and find everything they need. Small tricks can help to make even a small room attractive and even make it look bigger. First and foremost, however, the basic functions should be fulfilled. The basic equipment, which the online shop hardys24.de offers, includes the following:

  • a toilet, in addition, the holder for the toilet paper and the toilet brush set
  • a washbasin with towel holder
  • a mirror, possibly also a make-up mirror
  • a small trash can
  • storage options such as a shelf and/or a small cupboard for spare paper and other towels
  • a shower (if overnight guests use the bathroom)

If you would like to offer your guests more luxury, a bathtub or a shower-bathtub combination is ideal. Good ventilation is a matter of course. This can quickly become a problem, especially with indoor baths, if it is not already taken into account during planning.

Ideas For Design

Once the functional planning phase has been completed, the bathroom design is chosen. Do you like experimenting, but don't really dare to try anything crazy when furnishing your living rooms? You can really let off steam in the guest bathroom. You can set accents here with little effort. A few ideas for inspiration.

Eye-catching Patterns And Motifs

Bring colour to the guest bathroom by wallpapering a wall with a striking pattern. Motif wallpaper is also a good choice, as long as there is enough space for the illustration. So the Caribbean summer or a view of French vineyards quickly moves into the inconspicuous indoor pool.

A bright coat of paint can also be trendy, especially as wallpapers and wall paints can be changed at any time with little effort.

The Luxury Variant

It looks a little different with elements such as the fittings. Replacing them can cost several hundred euros. However, a powerful design can still be the order of the day: How about golden taps and accessories, for example?

Take your guests into a foreign, perhaps historical or oriental world. Incidentally, fragrances complement the visual impression perfectly. So why not set up fresh flowers or a discreet fragrance oil that appeals to the senses and underlines your conceptual idea.

Setting Accents With Light

The effect of bathroom lighting is often underestimated. Two functions should definitely be fulfilled by lamps in the bathroom: They should, for example, provide optimum brightness for make-up, and immerse the room in a warm light.

Install several light sources at the same time. A powerful lamp should be attached to the mirror, and you can place lamps on the ceiling or hidden on the shelf that indirectly illuminates the room and is ideally also adjustable.

Find Sources Of Inspiration

In order to come up with good ideas, there are various research possibilities. Keep your eyes open during the planning phase and follow the following tips:

-Go to the WC wherever you are. Whether in the restaurant, in the café or also with friends.
-See how others do it and pay attention to the details.
-With the smartphone in your pocket, you can capture every suggestion in a picture and use it later.
-Visit DIY stores and furniture stores. Most stores of this kind have display areas with furnishing suggestions.
-Visit interior blogs like this one. Many creative ideas from bloggers cannot be found in this form in any catalogue.

And one last tip: trust your own ideas. A personal touch has never harmed a home!
