Master Bathroom is a Necessary Luxury
Is a shared bathroom cramping your grooming and ablution time? And is that bathroom so small that you feel like you're in an old phone booth? A spacious and attractive master bathroom would be a step toward improving your standard of living. Think of the lifestyle benefits it can offer. While it may not be apparent at first look, a master bath can be a room in which you spend quality time. Imagine taking a relaxing shower after work, and it is a mood-enhancing endeavor where your mental wellness is also uplifted.
When planning a master bath, leave behind the thoughts of just functionality, and start thinking luxury. If you have small, it's time to think big. If you feel bored, it's time to spice things up.
Since the advent of the master bathroom in the 1950s, the size of this room has grown. Due to its spaciousness, people spend more time inside the master bath. It has transitioned from the usual place of doing bathroom business to a place where people can linger and pamper themselves. For these reasons, the master bathroom has become a necessity in all households.
Consequently, master bathroom design has evolved as well. From its initial emphasis on space without considerations to utility, it has become more efficient on zoning to increase the impression of spaciousness. Smaller walk-in showers are finished with large wall patterns to make them feel bigger. Separate cabinets are replaced by shelving atop and below vanities—to remove the space allotted for separate cabinetries. Sinks and toilets are designed smaller but have improved aesthetic looks to give more space to bathtubs. The availability of the room is increased by sectionalizing the toilet into a separate area. Anyone can then enter the master bath while another person can use the toilet without interruption. The toilet location in the master bath is vital to prevent flushing from being heard in other rooms, but too far away as to make it difficult to reach during the night.
Nowadays, a vanity is designed based on its intended function. If the owners want it to be a makeup application location, a chair can be fitted for under the vanity.
The number of sinks on a countertop can also be specified. If one sink is enough for the morning rush, you can opt for one. Otherwise, two sinks so each person can carry out their morning routine at the same time. The countertop surrounding the sink is designed correspondingly but usually extends longer at the sides to give more space for things used in the sink.
Master bathrooms nowadays have a variety of add-ons to consider, like humidifier fans, water-saving toilets, automatic faucets, and heat lamps.
