Bathroom: tips and inspirations to decorate the environment with creativity

Did you know that decorating a bathroom is much easier than it looks? Despite being a commonly overlooked environment because it is not a social area, or with a lot of movement, including the identity of the residents in this corner is essential to ensure a much more complete and cozy decoration at home.

A toilet consists of an area with a sink and a toilet, so that visitors can use it without taking away the privacy of the residents, as it avoids the circulation of the private bathroom of the house.

There are not many rules regarding the decoration of the space, we only have to take into account the proper proportions of the environment x items that will be included: “In most cases, the washrooms are much smaller than the bathrooms, so we must be careful about the size of the bench and objects that we will place, leaving a circulation of at least 60cm”, explains the architect Fernanda Botelho, from Decor Online.

5 tips to make the bathroom a pleasant environment

Check out below some basic items that should not be missing in your bathroom, with comments from the professional for you to take note of:

1. Choose a good liquid soap

“Because it is an environment that will be most used by visitors, invest in a tray to support the liquid and bar soap. Try to use a pleasant aroma”, suggests Fernanda. This is an essential item that must always be replenished, and therefore, it is worth ensuring several units in the pantry.

2. Bet on beautiful towels

For Fernanda, the choice of towel is influenced by the resident’s personal taste, but who must always rely on the quality of the product: “We must take into account its softness and also the colors that will adorn the decoration. Choose a delicate towel holder that fits the size of the piece that will be used, and ideally it is stretched out on the towel rail. Remembering that the user takes the towel with wet hands, so the item must be in a strategic place, preventing it from wetting the floor or bumping into another item”.

3. Have a fragrant and mild room freshener

To ensure the freshness and cleanliness of the environment, be sure to include an air freshener. “It can be a product in spray format and even scented candles”, suggests the architect.

4. Invest in paintings and small decorative objects

Including decorative items is the best way to customize the environment, according to the identity of its residents. Fernanda’s tip for this question is: “Choose strategic points to place such items, and invest in frames that refer to the chosen theme. Small potted plants are also welcome, as they offer coziness to the space. Species such as lilies, anthurium and succulents are ideal for toilets as they do not need much light and withstand variations in humidity.”

5. Opt for a large mirror

“The mirror is essential in small spaces, as it brings amplitude to the environment. If possible, try to use the piece with the same width as the bench”, concludes the professional.
