7 ways to give your bathroom spa appeal
From tranquil colour schemes to smart finishes, here's how to give your bathroom the spa treatment it deserves.
1. While warm natural tones may remind you of mud baths and mineral treatments, consider other soothing, yet less predictable shades to colour in your bathroom. Consider sophisticated greens such as deep forest, pale sage and olive green, as well as muted blues. Try painting your walls or cabinets in one of these shades for a look that's both serene and sophisticated.

2. Gone are the days of boxed-in baths and recessed sinks. Now, it's all about elegant, curvaceous freestanding tubs and above counter basins in organic shapes. If you're lucky enough to have the space, place your tubs further away from the walls or at least allow sufficient space around three sides of the tub to make it feel more like a sculpture, rather than a functional object.

3. First, it was gold. Then, it was rose gold. Now, matte black bathroom fixtures are getting everyone giddy. Add black accents in your bathroom with taps, shower heads, towel rails and cabinet handles. The moody tones are sure to dial up the chill factor.

4. Lighting is everything when it comes to relaxation. Consider dimmers or make a statement with a striking pendant light. Try a rattan pendant light for natural texture or go glam with a chandelier.

5. Declutter surfaces, then group items together to make them look less messy, and use stylish storage to house things. Try grass woven baskets for toilet paper; stoneware bowls for soaps; and decorative serving trays for creams. Colour-coordinate your toiletries for a streamlined look, or transfer shampoo to discreet soap dispensers.

6. It's not just about choosing luxuriously soft white Turkish Cotton towels, but also considering how to store and display them. Instead of stacking towels, consider rolling them up spa-style.

7. Unexpected details such as an Oriental rug, wooden stool, elegant planters and flowers in a pretty vase add welcome finishing touches, and take your bathroom from functional to fanciful.
