Starting planning your toilet room repair, it is important to keep in mind that apart from the esthetic attractiveness, all materials used for the interior finishing should be moisture-resistant, cleaned easily and quickly, be resistant to the chemical cleaning substances.
Currently, the market of the finishing materials for the toilet facilities suggests a wide specter of various goods, complying with all requirements of presence in a small but very important functional segment of the house. Starting from the ceramic tile and finishing with the moisture-resistant wall-papers, laminated panels, glass and plastic – everything works for the creation of unique, practical and rational decoration of utility premises.
Let us consider more in detail the design projects of toilet rooms with different types of finishing, color grade and stylistic directions.
The snow-white finishing – purity and freshness for the small rooms
A toilet is a room which, like no other utility area in the house or apartment needs the creation of fresh, practically sterile atmosphere. Surely, the light color palette in the finishing of the toilet will become the leading factor to achieve the feeling of purity and comfort. Taking into account the small area of the premises, the white color in the interior decoration will become also the helper in the visual space extension.
In order not to make the toilet room atmosphere similar to the sterile operating room, add several accents of different shades to the snow-white interior, not necessarily very bright or contrast, a small area of the wall fitted with the material different from the basic one will be enough.
The alternative to the snow-white shade may become the pastel group of colors, light and tender shades will show to the advantage along with the white bathroom fittings and warm color of decorative elements.
A combination of white ceramic tile and light tones of the wallpapers with the nonintrusive picture may become a perfect variant for the decoration of the small space.
When creating the modern interior of the toilet room, many designers try to hide as many communications as and engineering systems as possible behind the dummy panels or use the inbuilt fixture variants. But some professionals gravitating to the retro-style prefer the deliberate demonstration of all communication systems, presenting them as a part of décor, and not only the functional segment.
Dark color palette for original design of the toilet
Against the dark background of the fitting, the show-white bathroom fixtures look even more pure and sparkling. For those house owners whose toilet room parameters allow using the darks colors for the surfaces decor, we suggest several unusual variants of an interior for the toilet room.
The contrast which is achievable when integrating the snow-white bathroom fixtures within the dark premises creates a really interesting design.
The dark, deep shades in the walls finishing perfectly fit the light flooring. For the visual space expansion, the original bathroom mirror, glass or glossy surfaces may be used.
The dark gray walls of the toilet facility became a contrasting complement to the snow-white floor and ceiling, original décor and lighting items complemented the minimalistic atmosphere.
Bright interior of the toilet room – finishing peculiarities
For everyone who is not ready to make up with the snow-white surface of sterile toilet facilities and prefers refraining from the application of dark colors in the interior of any room – our next complex of toilet design-projects.
Why not use the bright, saturated colors of tile or wallpapers for finishing the toilet surfaces? If the room parameters allow, and your taste preferences lean to the specter of bright colors – you should act in terms of your personal preferences, with no regards to the trends or modern influences in the sphere of the interiors design.
With the help of a combination of white ceramic tile “metro” and wallpapers with the bright active print, it is possible to create the festive but at the same time bright walls finishing. White and black flooring and a similar variant of the facing tile brim decoration became the harmonious accomplishment of the toilet interior.
One more sample of using the combination of white and colorful surfaces in the toilet room. Due to the unusual decoration elements, we managed to create really sophisticated interior design.
With the help of mosaic tiles produced in the small fused blocks for the mantling convenience, you may create interesting insertions and pictures against the background of the light toilet room walls finishing. The mosaic tile is also convenient because it allows tiling the pulled surfaces, roundings and arch niches, protrusions.
Thanks’ to the abundance of the mirror surfaces, an illumination system and unusual decorative elements, we managed to create a truly interesting design of the toilet room.
A combination of the wallpapers with the patchwork and mosaic tiles in the walls finishing allows creating an interesting and unusual background for the bathroom fixtures in the white colors.
Bright, scarlet accent wall became the center of the attention focusing, as against its background quite large décor elements were placed. Slightly decadent atmosphere was complemented by the mirror in the carved frame.
With the help of wooden panel finishing and paintings on the glass partition, we managed to present interesting, unusual design of the toilet room.
The alternative of the toilet wall covering with the help of ceramic or stone tiles may become gluing the walls with the textile wallpapers, which are moisture-resistant and are simply cleaned. Besides, the surfaces subject to the greatest water impact – above the sink are coated with the natural stone. The bright artistic work became a successful accord in the accomplishment of extraordinary design of the toilet.
Modern bathroom design with three neutral shades:
Toilet bowl of unusual form as a way to diversify the toilet room design
We bring to your notice several looks of the toilet rooms, where the focus of attention has become not the premises finishing, but most important item of any toilet – the toilet bowl. Square or rectangular, oval or egg-shaped, inbuilt and suspended, miniature or large-scale models of bathroom fixtures became the attention grabbers when creating the interiors for the house utility premises.
Minimalism as a variant of the toilet room arrangement
No other interior style fits so perfectly the small rooms as minimalism. Modesty and strictness of the atmosphere are preferable for the small closed spaces, and at the city apartments toilet rooms are very small. Besides, keeping clean the premises without the unnecessary décor and where the bathroom fixtures are the only furniture is much simpler and efficient.
Only the diversity in the premises finishing and the contrast shades attract our attention in this toilet room. No unnecessary items of bathroom fixtures, flowers or shelves. The only combination of smooth snow-white surfaces with the wooden rack walls finishing technique.
And, finally, the two looks of the toilet rooms created specifically for the book-lovers for whom toilet is like a cabinet. For some house owners, a toilet is the only place on the walls or shelves of which they may place the collection items or souvenirs brought from different trips.
