Your future prospective buyers will also appreciate the thoughtful guest bathroom. So don’t ignore it. Besides, you don’t have to be extravagant with the space. It doesn’t need a grand bathtub or luxurious vanity sinks. Revamp it with the following bathroom remodel ideas.
Personality
Just because it’s a guest bathroom, it doesn’t mean it should lack personality. Most of us take the safe option when remodeling and decorating the guest bathroom. Patterns in the bathroom are a fantastic way to add character and depth to a previously dull bathroom. Most guest baths lack patterns. Adding bold and energetic patterns will liven the bathroom. Incorporate the patterns on the wall tiling or the floor. Use the patterns to highlight features such as the bathtub, vanity sink, or an architectural element in the bathroom. Go bold with color. Don’t play it safe. Add texture using area rugs. A quirky or an upcycle feature will also work great for the space.
Natural Light
Many people, including your guests, go to the bathroom to unwind after a tiresome day. Your guests will grateful for a bathroom that makes them feel at ease. The lighting in your bathroom can turn the space into an inviting or cold space. Comfort for your guest should always drive your lighting choices for this space. If it lacks natural light you need to consider adding large windows or replacing one of the walls with glass. This is not a DIY job. Engage a bathroom remodel contractor to help you decide on the best layout that lets it in more natural light. You can also opt for budget-friendly options such as painting white on the walls or reflecting and magnifying natural light with large mirrors. Opt for a floating sink to create an airy feel in the bathroom.
Create More Storage
Your guest needs enough storage to store their personal items. Use creative storage solutions such as basket or tray shelves, organizers, or a sleek vanity. Besides, more storage means it’ll be easier to maintain a clutter-free guest bathroom. Installing a bathroom sink with under-sink storage can also work for the guest bathroom. You can also go bold with a statement towel holder or bathroom cubbies. Don’t forget to add a laundry basket in the guest bathroom. It will help keep the space clean and clutter-free during guests’ stay.
Add Natural Decor Pieces
Going for decor pieces that mimic nature makes the bathroom warm and inviting. Connection with nature will evoke a feeling of solace as your guests take their baths. Think of using wood to create a feature, wall paneling, or shelves in the bathroom. Pebbles and stones are also great decor items for the guest bathroom. You can use the rock and pebbles to highlight the bathtub. Plants and fresh flowers in the guest bathroom will bring the green effect into the guest bathroom. They are calming, help clean the air in the bathroom, and will absorb moisture. Plants that thrive in moist environments are great for this space.
Hang an Art
Personal touches such as hanging art are good in the guest bathroom. Prints or photographs work for the bathroom space. You need to frame and seal it to prevent it from being damaged. You can place an art piece by or above the bathtub to create a focal point in the guest bathroom. You can also hang it above the sink, towel bar, or toilet tank. Don’t overcrowd the guest bathroom with art. One or two large pieces or three small art pieces are enough.
