The interior and decor of the bathroom in the modern style of the home should meet the needs of households, please the eye, give the opportunity to retire and relax. In the repair process, it is important to choose high-quality materials, plumbing. The right choice of accessories will bring life, add personality.
Possible issues are decided before drawing up a design project, then it will be impossible to rearrange anything, rearranging it.
Measure the width, height of the walls, doors. Mark out the location of pipes, vents, bathtubs, toilets, cabinets. The final decision is made taking into account how many people are in the apartment, whether there are small children, elderly people, how often guests are at home, where there will be a washing machine.
The thoughtless unification of the area of the toilet and the bathroom threatens a large family with disputes and conflicts.
The room is expanding due to the pantry, corridor, combining the toilet with the bathroom. This will require material, physical efforts, coordination at the authorities. They repair the bathroom on their own or are involved in the work of a designer who develops a detailed scheme with 3D visualization.
Zoning and space expansion
The room is divided into functional areas where plumbing equipment is placed: the area of the bathroom or shower, sink, toilet bowl. When the bathroom is combined, the toilet and shower are separated by a partition. Determine the storage area for towels, household chemicals, cosmetics, hair dryers. The washing machine in the bathroom is also installed in a separate area with a laundry basket.
In a small area you just have to dream about squeezing into a given volume. In this situation, resort to the following tricks:
Competent lighting. The space is illuminated evenly at different levels. Spot ceiling lights and sconces, light-flooded niches open space.
Walls and floors in bright colors. Room decoration in white, beige shades with contrasting bright accents of accessories. In addition, dried drops on a dark surface are more visible. Small tiles, mosaics, repeating patterns that create the illusion of volume. Mirrors throughout the wall, glossy ceiling give a feeling of spaciousness. The only negative is that you will have to wipe more often.
Closed storage systems. Group towels, jars, boxes and vials, send to hidden shelves or for scrap. The space will not be cluttered and narrowed.
Plumbing and furniture
The modern design of the bathroom involves competent lighting, layout and placement of furniture, high-quality finishing materials. So that the hygiene center does not cease to be a pleasure center, furniture, plumbing are selected in the same style, color, not forgetting about convenience and safety.
A practical and rational style for the bathroom will be classic or modern.The hi-tech style looks fashionable, where monochrome, glass and plastic, hanging plumbing, metal pipes fit in beautifully. The main thing is not to contradict the taste and sense of proportion. A bathroom, except for which nothing else fit in the room, is a bad decision.
For furniture, the best combination would be quality, functionality, roominess. The material from which it is made must be moisture resistant, stone can be used. Hinges, handles, legs made of chromed metal - a sign of quality. Gilding or imitation of chromium plating will take off after a couple of months, it will spoil the view.
Bath or shower
If the room is spacious, then you can not deny yourself in both options, but if you have to choose, you should think about it.
Why is the bathroom better?
You can soak up candles, foam or salt, isolate yourself from household chores, read, listen to music. Romance for a couple with champagne. For children it is useful and fun. Foam, toys, the sea, or rather, a pool of pleasure. Here you make a dish of delicate things, bathe a dog or a home crocodile, wash a large pot, put roses in water for the night. You can take a shower in the bathroom.
Fine print on the cons:
large dimensions;
increased water consumption;
inconvenience for the disabled and the elderly.
Why shower
The process does not take much time. Space saving. Water consumption is minimal. For "advanced" users: control of pressure, water temperature, choice of supply method, additional "smart" sensors, functions. Some models include the transformation of the shower into a sauna, a mini-salon for spa treatments. For the convenience of the elderly, they clean the sills and equip the booth with a special seat.
About cons:
the cabin will cost more;
the process is difficult with a low pressure;
lying down will not work; more effort to clean.
Ceiling
Not all types of finishes can withstand the harsh conditions of a specific room. Steam, condensate, fungi, leaks do not contribute to aesthetics.Selected materials must withstand temperatures, corrosion, allow the installation of hidden elements and structures.
Such economy options as painting or pasting the ceiling in a room with vinyl wallpaper cannot be called stylish and modern.
The higher class includes paneling. Particleboard panels - hygroscopic material, it is treated with moisture-resistant varnishes. With proper use, ventilation will last a long time.
PVC panels are relatively inexpensive, with a rich color scheme, installation is simple, there is the possibility of embedding fixtures. Slightly reduce the height of the room, easy to wash, moisture not afraid, fit into any design. Chameleon, mirror panels are popular.
Those who are willing to pay more prefer a recent innovation - suspended ceilings. Mineral slabs are popular (moisture resistant). Fans of the futuristic direction will stop at the metal tile. The color palette is not rich, moisture and pollution are collected on them, but the presence of proper ventilation solves the problem.
Plasterboard slabs are easy to install, with their help make multi-level ceilings. Wet drywall is amenable to shaping. Moisture-resistant sheets hide bumps and communications, they are easy to care for.
Slatted aluminum ceilings at the peak of popularity. The coating has many colors and shades, it is smooth, with perforation, chrome, gold, mirror. The material is lightweight, easy to care for, make ceilings of any configuration.
The highest class - stretch ceilings. The costs are worth it, the finish looks stylish and comfortable, the surface is absolutely flat. Mold does not develop on vinyl, condensation does not accumulate. If the neighbors flood from above, then such a ceiling holds more than one hundred liters of water. Glossy and matte options are popular, with photo printing imitating the southern starry sky.
Mirror, glass ceilings that change the volume of the room look original.Photo printing, engraving is used, the room is decorated with stained-glass windows.
Walls
Painting of walls, wallpapering are short-lived, only cullet is acceptable.
For a spacious room, plasterboard or plastic panels are suitable. These materials are easy to install, easy to maintain, a lot of staining options, minus - it is easy to damage.
There is a tendency to use natural materials. Wood and marble are expensive, but very beautiful. Wood will require special processing in a humid environment; marble will also have to be looked after.
Ceramic tile is environmentally friendly, durable, has a relatively low cost, it is easy to keep clean. Using styling options, using all kinds of types, sizes, colors, textures and shades of material, designers create unique interiors.
Another spectacular type of finish is decorative plaster, only moisture resistant. Apply plaster for outdoor use, which will withstand the stresses inherent in the bathroom.
Floor
Linoleum and paint sweep immediately. Parquet board in a humid environment is also not the best option.
Let's say a waterproof (not moisture resistant) laminate, which is also not an ideal coating, will begin to deteriorate after a while, despite protection and processing.
Ceramic tiles and tiles are the best choice. They are not afraid of moisture, meet hygiene requirements. The tile is durable, does not erase, does not slip. Poor thermal insulation is the defect that can be easily eliminated by connecting the “warm floor” system.
The advantage of the bulk floor is strength, resistance to aggressive influences. Using this coating, they realize any design idea, create original images with a 3D effect.
The elite finish is natural stone. The material itself, work with it will entail costs, but until now nothing more elegant has been invented. Usually porous marble is used, each tile of which is different. Pick up, stack only professionals.
Color spectrum
First of all, when designing a room, they are guided by its size, degree of illumination. Large bathrooms are rare, so the owners seek to visually expand the space.
White and black options are not an option, white is boring, associated with the hospital, glare. It manifests itself in combination with other colors, adding light to the room. A dark bathroom looks original in the photo, but in reality, where there is always a lack of square meters. m, will put pressure on the psyche. It is advisable to use two or three shades of blue, all shades of light green, ivory. Popular for the bathroom is bluish-green, shades of yellow, sand or pink, lilac with lavender.
If the plumbing is colored or with a pattern, then the walls are kept in one neutral color.
When using two colors, the complement is a tile with a pattern. Bright contrasting colors are applicable as inserts, which is suitable for a small room.
Combined with toilet
If we think about the rational use of space, the tandem is quite acceptable. In a limited space everything you need is placed. When redevelopment, additional wiring of pipes will be required, they are hidden as much as possible so that they take up little space and there is still access to plumbing elements.
If the pipes are placed in the wall, then let them be plastic. It is more difficult to mount, but reliability is higher than that of metal-plastic ones.
The combined bathroom will require the installation of forced ventilation.
The design of the room is maintained in the spirit of minimalism, Japanese style, hi-tech, where everything is strictly and accurately, with a few possible bright details.
Bathroom in Khrushchev
A feature of the interior of a room with a limited footage is the combination of many functions in one element. They leave only that which cannot be dispensed with.
The current technique is the use of angular models of plumbing. Miniature models are chosen, the sink is not next to, but above the bathroom, at least partially.On the "won" area will fit a washing machine of small dimensions. At worst, the sink is not installed at all, limiting itself to a faucet above the bathtub.
Small built-in shelves above the toilet or in a narrow opening between the sink and the machine, corner cabinet can accommodate many tubes and bottles, and the laconic form visually expand the space. Here, as nowhere else, it is important to use the play of light and shadow, to correctly set color accents.
Bathroom in the cottage
A country house gives room for creativity. You may have to spend your budget wisely, but not save space.
Often use a tree that will not only be a decorative element. It will combine nature outside the window and the decoration of the room into a single whole, add warmth and comfort. Finishing in this case is not made noisy, withstand space in calm light colors.
Expanse makes it possible to organize a whole storage system in the bathroom, to put the original furniture set. Lining the walls, ceiling with natural materials will bring a feeling of luxury.
On a large area, tiles of different shades and textures are laid, beat shapes and sizes.
The unique style will create the use of fragments, whole panels of mosaic tiles.
The aesthetics of a suburban interior will be emphasized by the subway laid in white tones. In a spacious room on the floor, dark wood and heavy natural stone are appropriate.
The interior and decor of the bathroom in the modern style of the home should meet the needs of households, please the eye, give the opportunity to retire and relax. In the repair process, it is important to choose high-quality materials, plumbing. The right choice of accessories will bring life, add personality.
