As such an important and personal space, it also needs to be somewhere that you can feel relaxed which means that it is a room which needs lots of attention when it comes to interior design. Not only this, but it is also somewhere that you need to take pride in so that you do not feel embarrassed when friends come over. 

Here are a few upgrades to consider:

1.    Lighting

Lighting is crucial in this space as otherwise it will appear dark, dingy and unhygienic. Hopefully, there will be natural lighting in the form of a window or skylight so that you can get light and fresh air flowing through, but if not, you need to make sure that there is artificial lighting to create a bright and welcoming space.

2.    Bathroom Tiles

Tiling the bathroom is one of the most effective ways to transform the space and make it a visually appealing room. You can easily find cool and attractive tiles no matter if you are opting for a modern, traditional, retro, unique or any other interior design style.

3.    Radiator

Having heating in this room is vital particularly if you want to keep your towels warm. Installing an aluminium radiator can make a big difference by reducing the amount of energy that you consume while also adding a healthy dose of style when you opt for a designer radiator.

4.    Shower

It is important that you feel clean and fresh once you have had a shower, so one of the best improvements that you can make is upgrading your shower. This may seem like a difficult task, but it can actually be quick and straightforward and make a big difference to your life. If you and your family hardly use the bathtub, replace it with a walk in shower, steam shower or transform it into a wet room.

5.    Bathtub

Similarly, if you enjoy taking baths, then it can be a great investment to purchase a new bathtub. It can be hard to feel clean after bathing in an old tub which is why you should consider upgrading to a new, stylish and large bathtub so that you can enjoy relaxing long bubble baths in peace.

6.    Fragrance

Steps should also be taken to make sure that this is a room which always smells fresh and clean. You can achieve this with regular cleaning, but also by incorporating one or a few of the following:

-   Air fresheners

-   Reed diffusers

-   Scented candles

-   Flowers

-   Potpourris


The bathroom should always be a space that you take pride in and somewhere that you can go to unwind and leave feeling fresh, clean and ready to take on the day. These bathroom upgrades will all help to create a stylish and welcoming area that you will enjoy spending time and not be embarrassed to show your friends. In addition to these upgrades, you also need to make sure that you are giving the room a deep clean on a regular basis to keep it hygienic and smelling fresh.
