Latest Interiors helps you to create your dream bathroom

Start the new year in style as Latest Interiors helps you to create your dream bathroom

It’s the beginning of a new year and your bathroom is begging to be part of a resolution you should be adamant to keep. With good old January sales looming, take this opportunity to explore the world of bathrooms, and make real those ideas that you thought were but a mere fantasy. From breath-taking power showers to indulgent bathtubs you could fit the whole family in, take relaxation to the next level and find the perfect features to suit you. Soak away all the stress of last year and welcome in a new bathroom era.

Bathe in splendour
If you want to make a bathroom statement, go large – big is beautiful as far as bathrooms are concerned. If you’re lucky enough to have a spacious room, keep lines simple and clean, add some neat storage and make a big, freestanding bath the central feature. Adding an outsized fixed ceiling shower will make your room more versatile (but remember to add a floor drain!). Freestanding baths can also work in smaller rooms – just keep everything else neutral and low-fuss.

Make your bathtub the central feature of the bathroom: freestanding baths, traditional roll-tops with ball-and-claw feet, or modern, sleek versions are perfect for a luxury bathroom, and great for that long soak. The classic roll-top shape is rounded at one end only, and surprisingly space-efficient. Double-ended (gently curved at both ends, with taps positioned centrally) and slipper (raised at one end) shaped baths are increasingly popular. For a sleek, contemporary feel, invest in a stunning stone, resin, wood or aluminium freestanding bath.

Home-spa style
There are lots of neat fixtures and gadgets to help transform your bathroom into something more akin to a spa. Baths with special features, like whirlpool jets or Jacuzzis; steam showers (like a mini-sauna) and even horizontal showers – where you recline and are washed by a row of shower jets – will all give your bathroom that extra something.

To get that spa feel, go for low-level, contemporary baths (in sparkling white) with natural wood or stone surrounds. Neutral tiled or panelled walls will also help achieve the look.

All that glitters
Natural stone is the perfect wall and floor finish for luxury bathroom, although this season we also love glass tiles for their colour and luminousity, and all things metallic. Use patterned tiles with subtle reflection or texture to add a feature wall.
