Step 1. Reflect

By considering how you want your new bathroom space to be used will make the process a lot more of a focused one. Reflect on your lifestyle. As a functional space, that is a crucial part of a home, think about how the room will be used. Do you often have to wait in line to use the bathroom? Consider installing a shower, wet room or shower bath for speedy morning showers. Perhaps you have the space for a twin basin to speed things up?

Step 2: Know your space

Knowing the space you have to play with is an ideal place to begin. Whether you have a completely new bathroom extension or are refitting an existing space, use our grid system (find it on the inside of the back page) to draw a simple diagram of your bathroom. By knowing your bathroom measurements (as well as any restrictions), like a dolls house, we can simply begin to slot your new bathroom pieces into place!. Don’t forget to add windows, doors, soil and waste pipes (i.e. where the basin/ shower and toilet positions are), as well as noteable features like a sloped ceiling.

Step 3. Future proof

Once you know your dimensions, it is time to start piecing together your bathroom, and the opportunities are endless! Think ahead, will you or a loved one require greater accessibility in years to come? How long do you anticipate the bathroom renovation to last you? What will the family dynamic be in a few years? Do you regularly use your bath tub or is it taking up much needed space, whereby a wet room or shower cubicle could potentially offer more freedom? Think about your lifestyle, do you prefer a relaxing evening soak or does the family prefer an invigorating drench to start the day? Again, this will help to fine tune your choices.

Step 4. Choose your look

Step 5. Storage

Bathroom storage is a necessity in most bathrooms. There are endless options to help hide the clutter with a choice of vanity units, tower columns and more.

Step 6. Finishing touches

The overall look of your bathroom can be heavily affected by your finishing touches such as taps and accessories, furniture handles, towel ring, toilet roll holder to name a few. Consider these crucial elements as part of your design. Introduce a statement mirror and some green foliage to finish your bathroom.

Incorporate as much storage as possible to keep the bathroom looking neat and decluttered
