Luxury bathrooms that rival opulent spas are a must in upscale homes. If your home is a bit more modest, you can still have that five-star resort feel in your bathroom with a few essential features.
If you want to turn your bathroom into a luxurious retreat, consider adding these features in your next bathroom remodeling project for your Atlanta home.
1. Rainfall showerhead
A rainfall showerhead is a quick addition that can instantly elevate your bathroom experience. Many high-end spas and resort bathrooms have them, so why not bring the sensation home? If you have enough space, consider a dual rainfall showerhead for a truly immersive shower experience. And if you want to up the luxury quotient, add body sprayers and steam generators for a relaxing indulgence after a long day.
2. Layered lighting
A luxury bathroom has layered lighting that allows you to define the mood of the space. The classic layered lighting system starts with ambient illumination for the entire room. Task lights are then added at strategic parts to provide the right brightness for different tasks or activities.
For example, you can add bracket lights or scones on both sides of the vanity mirror so there are no shadows on your face when you shave or do your make up. For the shower, damp-rated recessed lighting is a good idea, but indirect lighting that goes from the ceiling to the walls can help create a truly relaxing mood.
And for utmost opulence, a chandelier or pendant light in the center of the ceiling is a must. Make sure the design goes with the theme of your bathroom.
3. A fancy bathtub
Soaking tubs that are deeper than regular tubs are perfect for long rejuvenating dips. Freestanding tubs, particularly vintage style clawfoot tubs, create an instant style statement. They come in many designs, including classic white ceramic tubs, colored tubs, stainless steel, cast iron, and others.
You may want to go for something more adventurous like a Japanese soaking tub. It’s typically deeper and shorter than a regular tub so you have to sit upright when you’re in it. Japanese tubs traditionally come in wood, but it can also be built into the bathroom in ceramic or concrete.
For a truly regal bathroom, how about a Roman tub? A Roman tub is typically a sunken structure so you have to go down one or two steps to get in. It’s also usually wider than a regular tub, as well as deeper so you can soak up to your chin. A Roman tub often comes with an elaborate design, typically with marble tiles, but ceramic and other types of tiles can also work.
No matter the type of bathtub you decide on, you can up the luxury game by adding a Jacuzzi—a luxury addition that can truly create the spa experience at home.
