Match the theme of the bathroom with an ottoman

The bathroom can be a sanctuary in one’s home where one retreats after a stressful day to relax in a hot bubble bath. So, it needs to evoke a sense of comfort. This is made possible with thick, fluffy towels that envelope one after a hot bath or shower, along with marble surfaces. ‘His’ and ‘hers’ vanities along with a seating area can also create comfort.

Create a warm feel with a wooden floor

Try to bring natural light into the bathroom as much as possible as this can also have the effect of lifting one’s sprits. Don’t place curtains or blinds on the windows. Rather opt for film that is applied to windows professionally and provides a tint so that privacy is ensured. This has the effect of making the space appear larger.
