Plan and Design a Bathroom on Your Own


By Willhelm Williams


When you look at your current bathroom and begin to design a bathroom you will realize that it is a little bit different than doing a complete remodel, although you may find that there are similar elements of a remodel in your final design. To completely attain the bathroom design that you are going for, you may have to participate in a little demolition first. In some cases, the design can never be realized if some of the structures aren't torn up in order to be rebuilt in the way that you wish. Many bathrooms in older homes and in tract housing weren't designed for style, but were planned and built in order to save time, money and space. While you may not be able to knock out a wall in order to expand a bathroom, you may find that you are able to consolidate some space with your choices of fixtures.

The pedestal sink design is very much in fashion again and this is a great opportunity to free up some floor space in order to do something such as adding a linen cupboard or to install a fancy whirlpool tub. These changes and all others begin with a good, solid design. If you are not a professional and you are hoping to create the entire design yourself and your design includes major structural changes, it is best if you consult someone who can tell you if your ideas are even feasible. Unfortunately, rearranging the structures and fixtures of a bathroom are very different than rearranging your living room furniture. No matter how much you may want that extra large bathtub with the Jacuzzi jets, you may not be able to have it if the structure of the room simply cannot handle that change.

Another option is to hire a design firm or an architect to come in and listen to your ideas, your likes and dislikes and have them come up with a design that meets with your approval. While this is a much more expensive route, you will be assured that the design is attainable and that all of the major changes will meet with all of the structural standards and that the job will be completed in an appropriate and legal manner. Because these professionals are so familiar with the field of design and remodeling, they may have quite a lot of ideas of their own that you may never have thought of. You could definitely get your money's worth when using a designer. Their job is to be full of inspiration and they, very definitely, will have many ideas on how to design a bathroom.
