Bathroom Design


If you want a bathroom that dry, then wet areas must be separated to form a shower or bath up and dry area for the closet and sink. Separation of wet and dry areas is to use a shower box or if you want more simple then it can use a glass partition. If it's possible, I do not recommend the use of the tub, because it will cause water storage can be a place bertelurnya dengue fever mosquito. But if the room is only possible to use the bathtub, then make two bucket-sized bathtub with water depth, easily accessible (approximately 30 x 50 x 30 cm), making it easy to be drained and cleaned.
 
Judging from the size of your bathroom is quite small 1.4 m 1.8 m, then the component can be used are sanitary shower box, closet and sink. Choose white color for sanitary because white is a neutral color that is consistent when combined with any color of the walls and floor. The color white is the color of a clean and very easy to see the changes if we are lazy to clean it. The shape and size need to be adjusted with any sanitary bathroom so spacious bathroom is becoming increasingly narrow with no proper sanitary election.
Selection of Floor and Wall Material
Selection of wall coverings and flooring materials are now varied, everything can be adjusted with the budget you have. From the start tile, granite tile to granite or marble original. If you choose ceramic, ceramic choose first class, for better results. To facilitate the choice of colors, you can choose the tiles that are sold 1 set with a particular theme which is a mix of floor, skirting, wall below, list the middle and upper wall. But it would not hurt also if you create own color blend to your liking.


To get the texture and color of the original granite wall as you can choose granite tile as an alternative set of options. This material is thicker than the ceramic and grout (meeting) is more subtle as well as original granite. Because grout is almost not visible, then the room looks more clean and airy. Color choices are not too varied, so that you easier to choose colors that blend harmoniously.
If your budget allows, the original marble or granite can be an option. Marble has a texture that is more patterned than granite, so if you prefer a minimalist concept for your bathroom, use of granite is more suitable to be applied.
Color Selection
The combination of dark or bright color is not a problem to get an impression of a roomy bathroom and comfortable. Go ahead if you prefer darker colors that most bathrooms have adequate lighting. You can use halogen lamps in the corners of the room and add a mirror to neutralize the impression of a narrow width due to the effects of such a dark color.
 
Another thing to note is the use of coarse-textured ceramic or granite tile unpolished to the floor so it does not slippery when wet. Ceramic wall should also be full up to the ceiling for the bathroom easy to clean.
Ceramic Settings
Arrange the distribution of ceramic grout lines starting from the middle of the room so that the remaining pieces of pottery from every corner to be symmetrical. If you use the size of ceramic floor and wall grout lines are different, so floors and walls are not met, then you can install ceramic floor with a diagonal position. Using a border or frame around the floor with a ceramic floor is cut smaller and darker in color is also one trick to divert the floor and wall grout lines. If using ceramic size 30 cm x 30 cm, the border can have a size 10/15 cm x 30 cm, while for the size 40 cm x 40 cm, the border size 10/15 cm x 40 cm.
Distinguishing ceramic wall above the bottom and also one of the tricks to make bathrooms more beautiful. Use a ceramic with older color on the bottom and young color on top. The height can vary according to size of wall tiles are used, but should be above the sink. The second meeting of different color ceramic tiles is separated by the same list that can be colored with ceramic border on the floor or with motives and a different color. My advice is choosing the color of ceramic colors derived for more harmonious combination.
Calculating Needs Ceramics
In order for the material needs are not excessive or lack of, you also need to create a design in accordance with the needs of ceramic floor and wall area. You must calculate the number of tiles for each field of floor and wall. The simplest way is to make the size of each field of floor and wall on the paper with the help of a ruler with a scale of 1:20 means that if the size of 1.4 m 1.8 m floor then you must make the field on paper 7 cm x 9 cm. If you use ceramic size 30 cm x 30 cm, then a paper you have to make a line 1.5 cm x 1.5 cm. Divide starting from the middle of the field to the edge and number count of boxes that are divided into the field. Time ceramics on the right and left can you assume as the ceramic pieces and add the individual pieces to obtain an intact ceramic box. After getting the total number of tiles then add 5% to reserve the event of damage, because the ceramics that you have purchased only produced one time only, so that will be difficult if there is a shortage. If you use a ceramic 30x30 size was then in 1 m2 or 1 box has 11 pieces of ceramic tiles and 40x40 sizes used if there are 6 pieces of pottery. Divide the total number of tiles you count the number of tiles per m2 / per box so you can know the amount m2 of ceramic / boxes that must be purchased.
Exposure
Lighting is equally important component to increase the aesthetics of the bathroom. If the ceramics used dark-colored walls, lighting should be brighter than if you use brightly colored ceramics. In addition, you can add such local lights above the mirror-angle corner of the room or with indirect lighting (indirect lighting) if you use a drop ceiling on the ceiling. For local lights you can use a kind of yellowish halogen lights.
Atmosphere
Making air ventilation in the bathroom, also a major requirement for the bathroom stays clean and healthy. If the bathroom is on the side walls that are not in contact with the outer space, it must use a throw away van exhaust dirty air through the ceiling. Therefore, as far as possible when designing a bathroom in the house, its location must be side by side with outside space for air to go out freely so that the bathroom is humid and stuffy.
Sanitary Supplies
For other sanitary fixtures such as faucets, shower and floor drain are made from stainless steel pick because in addition to more robust, maintenance is not difficult and will add to the aesthetic appearance to your bathroom. In the market, sanitary supplies a lot of choice of form and design that can match you with your bathroom theme.
