Traditional Bathroom Design APK

When designing a new bathroom there are many style options to choose from. You can go with contemporary, traditional, antique, or modern design. Among these choices, the most popular tends to be the traditional bathroom design. Creating the perfect traditional bathroom is easier than one might think.

There are a few pitfalls one must avoid however, the main one being not to go too much towards an antiquated look. A traditional design and an antique design are easy to confuse, but there are differences. An antique bathroom design is one that portrays a look of a hundred years or older. A traditional design is something that is simplistic but not necessarily old. When you think traditional, think rustic or farm house design, or classic Americana. A traditional design should be something that is simple and bold, because "the less is more" vibe is what you're going for when designing a traditional bathroom. The other important thing is to keep the colors natural and plain. Try to stay with colors that are slightly off white or dark browns for your traditional bathroom vanity and furniture. You want your bathroom pieces to be basic in shape and design. When creating a traditional design, you want to avoid clutter and have a few central pieces that the room centers around.

The other end of the traditional bathroom design spectrum is the bathroom styles that are more elegant but still moderate in design. Think about old style checkered floors and free standing bathtubs. You also may want to incorporate a chair or resting area in your traditional bathroom. Traditional bathrooms were more of a room that people would "hangout" in rather than just bathe. Another way to go would be hardwood floors and a bright bold porcelain tub. When creating a traditional bathroom you can go for the gusto as well, lining walls with gold and having tiled floors with specific patterns.

The important thing to remember when creating a traditional bathroom design is to stay true to yourself. Your bathroom should be a reflection of you and you should always create a design that is an extension of your taste. If you are simplistic then that may be the route you want to go, however, if you are more of a "put on a show" type of person you might want to go with a more elegant traditional feel. Whatever your "feel" may be, always design a bathroom that is just right for you and your home.

There is so much choice these days for bathroom designs that it is hard enough to choose fittings if you know that you want a traditional style or that you want a contemporary style. But what if you have not yet been able to choose between those two styles? They are both very appealing and since many people in the UK live in period homes the traditional style, echoing the era of the house, are still very popular.

Think about Victorian style claw-foot free-standing baths with traditional chrome taps; the outside can be painted any colour you choose to prevent the bathroom being too stark white and clinical. They look just as fabulous in a bathroom now as they did originally in Victorian times.

Or what about the monochrome look and geometric lines of an Art Deco bathroom with black and white chequer board floor tiles. Black and white tiles never go out of fashion and are a classic look. That is one of the major factors in choosing a traditional bathroom over a contemporary one; in 10 years' time it will still look as good as the day it was fitted (in design terms at least, although if it has not been well-maintained the grout and sealant may need an overhaul after 10 years).

So there is no doubt that traditional bathrooms are a good choice for any type of home but take a look in your nearest bathroom showroom and you are sure to be wowed by the latest contemporary designs, not least all the electronic gadgets such as remote control showers and those tiny LED lights in the shower head to reflect your mood.
