Clean Bathroom Tiles

There is one thing I find incredibly strange. You know those overly bold bathrooms you find in old homes? Yeah, they can be quite sore on the eyes. I remember some of them vividly from our family vacations, especially in those traditional hotels. Their theme was just too much to handle and simply did not look right.

Well, as I have grown up, I went into interior designing as my profession. And, no, it was not because I got perpetually disturbed by those bold bathroom designs. But, anyway, by a stroke of chance, I did enroll into interior designing and started looking at those designs in a very different light.

Yes, today most people enjoy their interiors with a touch of modern and classical, but when I am working on an old property, I love keeping those daring bathrooms and work towards making them shine in their own regard. It went to a point where I just loved everything that I could do with them. Of course, I needed the consent of the customer, but during our consultations, I used to push them to keep the original style and work around them. They can be really, really beautiful when used the correct way trust me.

From being absolutely frightened by those bathroom tiles with strange color patterns, and those big, bejeweled mirrors, I have become quite acclimatized with them and realized one can do so many things with them.

I hope this was enough motivation for you to keep your bold bathroom tiles. I wish to share 4 ways you can fully embrace your bold bathroom tiles and make your bathroom look incredible in the process. Trust me, you are lucky if you find a colorful bathroom in good condition. Instead of remodeling it, I suggest renovating it.

1. Paint a complementary color.

I realize sometimes these bathrooms can be intimidating. Especially when the tiles are overly bright and colorful. The first thing you could try is to paint a neutral paint that not only complements the existing décor, but also adds a certain touch to the entire situation. For example, adding a monochromatic scheme in contrast with the existing scheme can really help the aesthetic of your bathroom.

2. A new wallpaper.

Wallpapers are incredibly simple to put up and you can find a ton of options out there. If your bathroom has an overly exiting color scheme with some empty spaces in between, one of the easiest things you can do to improve the scene is to add a wallpaper that works in the direction of the décor. From my experience, you can either try to push it further or try to calm it down by using a more neutral wallpaper. Either could work and the end product could be satisfactory. Make sure you conceptualize it well.

3. Accessorize

This is an easier effort than the rest. If your bathroom already looks quirky, you only need to add decorative elements to either boost the quirkiness, or work in tandem with the décor to allow for an actually good looking bathroom. Small items and design decisions can really alter how your bathroom looks and feels.

4. Change the fixtures

In old bathrooms, the fixtures generally need to be updated. However, instead of simply cleaning them up, you could go the extra mile and install completely new ones. Again, you could go either ways, traditional fixtures or modern lighting can be made to look aesthetic against your bold bathroom if you do it right. For incredibly colorful bathrooms, something retro could really propel the aesthetics of the place. For more dull bathroom tiles, something really colorful or traditional works too.

There are plenty of things you can do to your bathroom that can either reduce its eccentricity or enhance it. I would suggest either is a viable option and you could try out both to see what works for you. As an interior designer, we have softwares and such that can show you how the end product will look like. It is a good way to conceptualize and figure out what works for you.

A bold bathroom requires attention, and you should not be intimated by it. Instead, work towards making it aesthetically pleasing from your point of view. It is your house; you can do whatever you feel works.
