When it comes to house design and décor many people think only of color schemes and how they can use different color to create impact in a room. While it is true that color can play a significant role in the appearance and mood of a room, there are many more components that will affect the mood and ambiance of the room.

This is especially the case when it comes to bathrooms, due to the purpose of the room and generally small room size. It is the combination of several bathroom components that gives the room it’s sense of style and makes it an area that you are happy to be in and show others.

These factors include areas such as what type of lighting is available and how is it used, what special design features are included, how have fixtures been used to accentuate the style of the bathroom, and what finishes are used in decorating.

Bath Decor - How To Design a Bathroom That Is Truly Yours Through Bath Decor - Bath decor - nothing is more beautiful (to me at least) than a room that is 'perfect'. The correct room design, the correct furnishings and let us not omit its décor.

A room that is pleasing to the senses - beautiful, luxurious, a pleasure to be in. A room designed to be lived in. Those are beautiful rooms to me and one than can stand out through its bath décor is obviously the remodelled bathroom.

A bathroom has such potential for dramatic bath décor and this is something that can be utilized to increase a homes selling price or increase the joy experienced in living in it.

Some of my favourite examples of dramatic bath décor are:

1) Skylights - Nothing adds more elegance, more panache to a bathroom than a gorgeous skylight contained in a vaulted two-story ceiling. Accentuated with a low hanging paddle fan perhaps.

2) Lighting - This often overlooked method can be used to obtain the functional lighting levels that are required in a modern remodelled bathroom but please realize the opportunity you have with the bathrooms bath décor if you incorporate a stunning light fixture of some kind.

Decorative generally works best around the mirror(s) with recessed ceiling mount lighting fixtures providing the utilitarian lighting levels needed for general overall illumination.

3) Plumbing Fixtures - These consist of:

a. Your Tub/Shower Unit - is it an antique-looking unit to be accessorized with the same type of faucets and towel bars or modern to be paired with modern accessories?

b. Your Sink Unit - Do you want a common sink & vanity cabinet or will you opt for a stunning free-standing pedestal based unit?

4) Wallpaper and paint - These are two of the old standbys; utilize them in conjunction with your other bath décor opportunities and your remodelled bathroom will be a stunning victory over the mundane!

By integrating these different opportunities to make your bath décor your very own, you can design and create stunning bathrooms for very little money, depending on your exact bath décor
