Bath Shower Home Design

Tiling a bathroom floor is one of the most cost- effective home improvement projects that needs moderate skills and correct materials. It’s a great way to add value to your bathroom remodel and can allow you to add upgrades like radiant heat. It’s easier than ever to source great-looking, affordable tile . Choosing the right tile color and style When selecting a tile for the floor, the color should be neutral and coordinate with your cabinetry, paint color and shower or bathtub. If your bathroom floor tends to get messy from dust and debris, consider a tile that isn’t a solid color – a variety of color changes or textures will do a better job hiding dirt than a solid color. Using a light color may contribute to a greater sense of space but that theory isn’t always true. The color choice should be more dependent upon how the color of the floor tile relates to the other colors in the room. Be sure you bring home samples of your top choices and set them on the floor next to your ot...

The bathroom is finished! Woohoo! I’m so excited to be done!  I now have two whole rooms that are completely finished in my house.  😀  And they just happen to be the two most challenging — a total gut and remodel of a kitchen and a bathroom.  The rest of the rooms should feel like a walk in the park after these! I started this remodel on January 22nd — almost exactly six months ago — and have been working on it off and on since then. I took a break during my father-in-law’s two-week visit in March, another break during my two- week blogging break , and yet another break while I finished up the condo.

If you look around your home today, you’ll probably see tile on one or more surfaces. Tile is commonly used on foyer, bathroom, laundry and kitchen floors, shower walls and fancier backsplashes in American homes.   If you lived somewhere else in the world —  like Europe, for example —  you’d probably have much more of it in your house. Tile makers want us to see the greater possibilities here, too, and so they sponsor visits by American architects, interior designers and journalists to their major trade shows . Cersaie, held in Italy every September, is one of those shows. Organized by the country’s ceramic trade association , it brings 100,000 attendees to Bologna to ogle acres of tile and buy boatloads (literally) of it for their projects around the world. Some of those shipments make their way to the United States. Given tile’s versatility, low maintenance and durability, it’s definitely worth considering for your home, beside the spaces we traditionally think of using tile. Here ar...
