Bathroom interior

The bathroom is one of the most visited places in an apartment or house, so its interior must be thought out to the smallest detail. This room should be unusually comfortable and equipped with all the necessary attributes. Let's take a closer look at what features need to be taken into account when decorating a bathroom interior, as well as get acquainted with popular fashion trends and rules for color combinations.

The interior of a modern bathroom assumes a combination of comfort and original stylistic solutions. For example, it has long been out of fashion to use a large number of ornaments and decorative elements, but such solutions are quite acceptable and look very beautiful in combination with plain wall tiles.

But with budget options, everything can be more complicated, since their quality often leaves much to be desired, and the ornaments may seem a little outdated.

Fortunately, modern technologies make it possible to produce inexpensive materials, the appearance of which will be almost identical to the design of luxury tiles. In modern bathroom design, large floor tiles are most often used, as well as fairly large rectangular wall materials.Much less often, standard square tiles of small parameters are used, but decorative mosaics are actively used, ideal for decorating one of the walls of a room or a separate part of it.

Since the modern interior consists not only of finishing materials, it is also necessary to select the appropriate complementary elements. For example, textile attributes or various decorative products, which are used rather as accessories and practically do not carry any functional load. But for those who are opposed to placing useless things in the bathroom, there are various original products that can be both interior decoration and an original functional attribute.

In addition, there are several more main features inherent in the modern interior of a room designed for taking water procedures. For example, the presence of a large number of light shades in the design. Dark walls look very gloomy and create a twilight atmosphere in the room, no matter how many light sources are used.

Since the space of such a room is in daily contact with moisture, it is necessary to choose finishing materials based, first of all, on this factor and only then focus on the decorative component. It is precisely because of the high level of humidity that materials with a paper or wood base are not used for decorating a bathroom - they will quickly deteriorate and lose their original appearance.

Ceramic tile is the most practical and popular material for wall and floor decoration.

In addition, this material has a very favorable cost, and in the assortment you can even find budget options that are suitable for those who like to save money.

For those who want to make the interior of their bathroom more original and unusual, there are many other finishes. For example, tiles with a sheer mesh backing and ceramic pebble stones will look like real masonry. On the walls, such decoration will be appropriate only in the form of decor in combination with plain tiles, but in the floor version it will resemble the seashore.

Often used to decorate such a room seashells. They are used to create frames for mirror cabinets or other decorative elements, and they are also actively used in the design of walls and baseboards. But this type of decoration can be too difficult for self-execution, therefore Most often, shells can be seen on the bathroom walls in the form of a beautiful print on ceramic tiles.

Stylish and modern looks brickwork in the interior of the shower room, especially if it is designed in a certain style.

But there are many other options for creating such a decor, including the use of decorative cladding panels.

It should be noted that a rather original design option with ceramic tiles can be created by picking up products of an unusual shape. The most common elements are in the form of honeycombs. You can pick up a plain tile and lay out all the walls with such honeycombs, or you can also make a spectacular and original ornament.

Naturally, when creating an interior composition, it is necessary to correctly select color combinations so that the final result is harmonious and organic. To do this, you need to pay attention not only to the severity of a particular shade, but also to its temperature, since colors of different temperature directions rarely harmoniously combine with each other.

Let's take a closer look at this issue.

• Silver tile looks quite organic in the interior of the bathroom, even with the complete decoration of the walls. The main thing is to choose a light tone, since a saturated one will look heavy and even vulgar. In addition, the silver color will be very successfully combined with lilac, turquoise, menthol, light yellow and white.

• About white worth mentioning separately, as it is quite versatile and goes well with absolutely any other shade. It is often used as the main tone in the interior, complementing the composition with brighter colors. Using this shade without a combination with others is not recommended, as the room will seem cold and uncomfortable.

• Perfect for the bathroom blue or lilac shade ceramic tiles. They can be harmoniously combined with each other and, complementing with lighter colors, lay out an original ornament. In combination with these shades, you can use a cold yellow tone, bright pink in small quantities, gray, blue and emerald colors.

• Such a room, decorated in a light lemon tone. Usually it is combined with white, light gray and light menthol colors, and the design in such cases is presented in the form of holistic paintings and unobtrusive drawings on a marine or natural theme.

• In rare cases, in the interior of the bathroom are used black, dark gray, dark purple, dark brown and dark blue shadescomplemented by a light glitter effect. Ceramic elements in these colors are used for laying out floor coverings and for small original ornaments.

• Interiors of this type of premises, made in a delicate and eye-pleasing color scheme. In this case, preferences are given to beige, cream, powdery and light pink shades. And with this wall design, floor coverings are decorated in dark brown tones, as well as in a shade that is commonly called "dusty rose".

Stylistic solutions play an equally important role, since it is not enough to choose shades and combine them successfully; all this must be effectively presented and supplemented with characteristic details. Perhaps the nautical style can rightly be called perhaps the most popular trend in bathroom design, since many professional designers and ordinary people believe that any water theme is an ideal solution for such premises.

Considering classic version, then we can observe in the design such characteristic features as the predominance of blue, blue and white colors, the presence of ornaments in the form of shells, anchors, ships and other attributes.

If he talks about more original and unusual options, then everything is much more interesting here. Often, unlimited design imagination can create a real underwater world with all its amazing beauties on the walls of your premises.

Ecostyle especially appreciated by lovers of natural materials and everything natural. The fact is that even when decorating a bathroom, ceramic tiles with a print imitating woody colors, a large amount of artificial greenery or accessories of the corresponding tone are used, as well as elements made of natural wood impregnated with moisture-resistant compounds. But it should be borne in mind that any formulations lose their properties over time, therefore it is not recommended to use wood in large quantities and objects made of such material should be placed as far as possible from water.

African style in the interior such a room is something unusual, unique, distinctive and incredibly stylish. This trend is characterized by the predominance of classic brown and reddish-brown shades, the presence of various animalistic prints, which are sometimes used to decorate even plumbing elements, as well as decorating minor details with darker shades.

Framework modern style can be so blurred that it is sometimes difficult to clearly define what relates to it, especially when it comes to the interior design of a room for taking water procedures. The modern stylistic direction can be called a set of various elements inherent in other design trends.

Despite the vagueness of the definition, several characteristic features can still be identified:

• minimalism and maximum practicality, thanks to which the presence of useless objects in the room is practically excluded;
• color solutions as close as possible to natural natural shades;
• do not forget about the presence of fashionable plumbing and furniture attributes, the external design of which is also as close as possible to simplicity and practicality.

Shabby chic is something incredibly sophisticated and elegant. That is why the interior of the bathroom in this style will become the unconditional choice of a dreamy romantic nature. This style is characterized by the use of white as the main color in the interior, the presence of light floral prints in the form of small drawings, as well as the addition of the overall picture with details of muted light shades.

Style patchwork known for its unusual features.

In textile design, this is done through the use of various colored patches, and in the interior of the bathroom, a mischievous achromatic palette is laid out from small plain tiles or from parts with different prints.

The arrangement of furniture and the arrangement of other attributes plays an important role in the interior. For example, with the help of the correct placement of certain objects, you can visually expand the room or, conversely, reduce its volume. In addition, in a similar way, you can give the bathroom a certain shape or zone its space.

The way objects will be arranged in the interior directly depends on the dimensions of the room, therefore, it is very important to take into account all the nuances and correctly think over the layout.

• It is unlikely that a lot of furniture will fit in a small room of the bathroom, separate from the restroom, so it is recommended to do only the most essential. It is necessary to arrange objects as compactly as possible and best of all in the same part of the room where the sink is located.
• In a bathroom, combined with a restroom, which has standard dimensions for apartments in "Khrushchevs", everything is a little simpler, since the space allows the interior to be supplemented with small pieces of furniture with hinged fastening methods.
• As for the spacious rooms, here you can act according to your personal preferences, but when placing you need to take into account, first of all, comfort. Therefore, it is recommended to place items necessary for taking a bath in the immediate vicinity of it.

Let's take a closer look at what accessories, furniture attributes and other details are needed for a beautiful setting in a room of this kind.

Plumbing paraphernalia, although it is for the most part the functionality of the room, still plays an important role in the interior.

For example, for interiors in a certain style, special taps and shower heads of a bronze shade with an antique effect are made. And for colorful design projects, they even pick up a bath, sink or toilet bowl with animalistic colors that imitate patterns on the skin of any animals. In addition, plumbing paraphernalia can be selected of a certain shape, size, with an unusual system of switching on, functioning and draining, which will create a truly unique and unusual interior.

An integral part of the interior of any bathroom is a furniture addition, but it must be chosen very carefully, taking into account all the important nuances. It should be organic, well-matched to the overall composition, but at the same time rather neutral, so as not to focus on the furniture, distracting from the more important, central elements of this type of room. The frame of furniture attributes must be made of waterproof materials, or at least have a moisture-resistant impregnation.

It is also worth noting that furniture attributes should be as functional and roomy as possible, since very often it is in the bathroom that a lot of accessories for taking water procedures, a large amount of beauty products, as well as various household cleaning substances are stored. If all of these items have storage space, you can always keep the room tidy.

In most cases, preference is given to products in neutral colors - white, beige, powdery and light brown. If you want to somehow complement the interior of a standard bathroom, you should heed the recommendations of the designers and pay attention to the furniture from the Swedish brand IKEA, whose assortment includes rather original models of toilet wall cabinets with a mirror and narrow cabinets-cases with and without doors. Particularly noteworthy is the model, the frame of which is made in the form of a refined cast iron.

In addition to plumbing and furniture filling, you can also add accessories to the bathroom interior. Most often, useful details are chosen for such a room, which not only neatly emphasize the stylistic idea, but also perform certain functions.

Some products are made of durable material that does not allow air to pass through, therefore, in such cases, the curtain will serve as thermal insulation, retaining heat in a certain area, which contributes to even more comfortable water procedures.

Various towel racks, small shelves, toilet paper holders and even a beautifully designed plunger stand can also be used as accessories. All these little things, decorated in the same style, become a completely organic addition to the interior. It is also worth noting that A soap dish or container for liquid soap, a toothbrush holder, glasses used for mouthwash, towels and a rug are also accessories and add to the design of the room.

Lighting in the bathroom plays a rather large role, since many women spend a sufficient amount of time collecting and applying cosmetics in this particular room, therefore it is recommended to think over the location of the lamps no less carefully than the entire interior. For a small room, it would seem that central lighting and a low-power device are sufficient, but with this arrangement, the corner parts will remain unlit, which will affect personal comfort.

And in order for you to independently adjust the illumination of the room, you can divide them and distribute them to several switches.

A medium-sized room can also be equipped with spotlights, increasing their number to 8-10 pieces. But there are options for combining the central unit and the aforementioned lamps, placing 2 pieces each in separate areas of the ceiling surface, for example, above a bathtub or sink. A large and spacious bathroom needs a special lighting system.

That's why in addition to the central lighting fixture and spotlights, you can also complement the interior with elegant wall sconces and function lamps, located in the area of ​​the mirror.

In order to make it easier to decide and choose the interior of the bathroom to your liking, we recommend that you familiarize yourself with some examples of the design of such premises in an apartment or in a cottage.

• A sophisticated design in beige and brown tones will appeal to connoisseurs of comfort, and a large amount of free space will allow you to combine a bath and a shower area. The space of such a room is ideal for a private house, but in an apartment it can be used with greater benefit.

• When ordinary and familiar interiors are boring, you can always turn to the Italian style. The original tiles on the floor and walls, plumbing paraphernalia of an unusual shape and other very colorful details will help create a truly soulful and very beautiful environment.

• A small and narrow bathroom can also be original and beautiful; you just need to choose a turquoise-blue tile, combine it harmoniously with white and add a minimum amount of furniture to the room without overloading it.
