An aesthetically pleasing bathroom is always a sight to see. There’s always that mind-blowing effect these bathrooms give, notwithstanding how small or large they are. So, if you are considering renovating your bathroom, then improving its aesthetics is something you most definitely want to invest in.

And when it comes to improving the aesthetics of bathrooms (or any other part of the home for that matter), very few things are as effective as injecting art into your renovation plans!

Not sure how to achieve that? You need not worry. Helping you out is what we are here for. In this article, we are sharing a number of tips and ideas with you on how to incorporate art into your bathroom renovation ideas for a more aesthetic bathroom.

Injecting Art Into Your Bathroom Design
Before we get to the tips, however, what do we mean by injecting art into your bathroom design? Well, to put it simply, we mean incorporate art into your bathroom. We mean make your renovation plans with art in mind.

Now, hearing this, the first thing that comes to your mind is probably paintings. And that’s fine really. It’s a great idea even. Adding paintings to your bathrooms would definitely do a lot in improving the aesthetics of your bathroom. In fact, there are some great arts that are perfect for just that. Nevertheless, adding paint to your bathroom is NOT the only way you could incorporate art into it. One could even say that’s just the beginning.

So how do you really insert art into your bathroom design? Well, it’s simple really. You just think “aesthetically pleasing” in every design choice you make. This way, you don’t just inject art into your bathroom, you turn your entire bathroom into a piece of art.

And how exactly do you achieve this? Below are 5 tips to help you out.

1. Think Aesthetics From the Very Beginning
Here’s where most people get it wrong. They choose or make a bathroom renovation plan, buy items to be installed in the bathroom, paint the walls, install the tiles, and so on; before actually thinking about optimizing the aesthetics of the room. Then after renovating the bath, they include a work of art or two to add that aesthetic effect.

If you are looking to really inject art into your bathroom, you’d want to do better than that.

What you’d want to do is start planning your bathroom renovation with aesthetics in mind from the very beginning. Choose bathroom designs and layouts that are aesthetic. Have a plan in place from the very beginning and make sure your renovation follows this plan thoroughly. Lay the foundation for an artistic bathroom and you’d find that the end result looks just as artistic as you planned it to be.

2. Choose the Right Accessories
Let’s let you in on a little secret. See those accessories in your bath ─ the basins and tapware, the shower and tub, the counter and cabinet? They’re one of the best ways to add some art to your bathroom.

It’s simple really. Why choose plain, unimpressive accessories when you can get the more artistic and modern ones?!

Yes, practically any tap and basin would get the job done in an average bath provided they function well. That’s just the thing though. You aren’t looking to get just an average bathroom, are you? You’re looking to get something artistic. Something jaw-droppingly gorgeous. If so, then your accessories should look the part as well! And that’s exactly why you want to pay attention to the kind of accessories you use.

You don’t just want to choose accessories simply because they are artistic though. You want to do exactly what the next tip says.

3. Follow the Overall Theme of Your Bathroom
Here’s another mistake most homeowners make. They assume because an accessory is good looking, it’s a great addition to their home. While this is usually the case, you’d be surprised how many times the reverse happens.

The fact that an accessory looks beautiful doesn’t make it a great fit for YOUR bathroom beautiful. Does that sound contradictory? Hear me out for a bit and I’d explain.

You see, every home renovation has a bit of a theme, especially one that was designed with aesthetics in mind from the very beginning (remember tip number 1?)
Well, not every accessory is fit for every theme. Take for example you are looking to go for a minimalistic theme. If this is the case, then the kinds of accessories that would fit your chosen design would be very different from those that would fit the bathroom of someone looking to go for bold and flashy.

While the kind of accessories that would fit both bathroom designs might be beautiful in their own right, they would both look better when placed in their respective RIGHT bathrooms.

The same would be the case for your bathroom, and that’s why you want to choose accessories that fit your bathroom’s general design and not just something pretty.

4. Check Out Modern Accessories
Ask any interior decorator and they’d tell you, modern accessory designs are always more beautiful than older ones. It doesn’t matter whether the accessories in question are faucets or bathtubs or basins.

If you were initially looking to purchase a bathroom accessory that isn’t a modern one we advise you to check out more modern bathroom accessories before making your choice. Chances are, you’d find a modern design that looks just like the one you like. Just better.

Choosing modern accessories also provide an added advantage too. Not only do they look more aesthetically pleasing, but they are often also more energy efficient. So, by choosing them, you don’t just get accessories with better aesthetics, you also get accessories that help you save more!

5. Check Out Design Ideas
Alright, here’s our last tip for the day, but definitely not the list. We’ve been dropping hints of this throughout this blog, but with how important it is, we really can’t help but provide a separate section for it.

Google it, ask around, whatever you can to broaden your pool of ideas for your next bathroom renovation!

Except you are a professional interior decorator, you most likely have no idea about how to plan your bathroom renovation, not to mention an artistic one. This is where checking out already existing designs come in. These designs help give you an idea of the options you have. From these designs, you could even find what you like and have something like that created for you. No stress.
