SURFACE SANCTUARY

How do you define a beautiful bathroom? Despite its relatively compact size, you can immediately tell if a bathroom looks good or not. Most likely, the first thing you notice are the bathroom surfaces. From walls to floors to any countertops, the material on your bathroom surfaces immediately dictate how well designed the space is.

With the advent of new technology, you now have a wide variety of surfaces to choose from, all of which are suitable to use in a high humidity space such as the bathroom. Similarly, you’re not limited by design either. From luscious wood textures to faux natural stone, the possibilities are truly endless. Here are some tips and ideas that can help turn your bathroom from a boring space into a beautiful one.

Wall Up, Floor Up

Choosing the best tiles for your high-action bathroom may not necessarily be an easy feat. You would ideally want something that looks good, but also one that can support the heavy duties of the bathroom. Floors get stomped on and walls are splashed upon on a daily basis, and thus, the bathroom certainly needs a hardwearing material to withstand these activities well.
