Creating a Vintage Bathroom Design
- Friday 06 August, 2010 Viewed:145
The breathtakingly sumptuous decor of the Victorian Era is ironically one of the most in demand aesthetics of today. Many people want to see the reflection of the days of old everywhere in their house, including bathroom. Whilst some think it’s impossible to achieve without an interior designer and a team of builders, the more creative have managed to create the vintage-looking bathroom without too much expense or fuss. They just came to our online store and ordered a few key pieces in classic shapes and a set of matching accessories to complete the modern vintage look.
OK, so when remodelling your bathroom with vintage splendour in mind, you may take two different approaches. First, you may select the room’s major items (bathtub, toilet and washbasin) to suit a trendy modern design, and then accessorize your choice with classic pieces. Second, the key bathroom pieces can be more traditional, whilst the accessories you use represent a modern design.
To our mind any bathroom designed in the Victorian style needs the centrepiece of a capacious claw-foot tub, such as the Luxury Double Slipper bath 1760. These large bathtubs originated in the Nineteenth century but many bathroom furniture manufacturers offer authentic-looking, lightweight reproductions.
A sink design that we would recommend to evoke vintage charm is the pedestal basin. Here, at BathroomEvolution these freestanding basins are available in a vast range of design and styles, from retro to ultra-modern. We also offer great value traditional suites, such as the Grandeur Marlborough suite, to provide you with three retro-looking pieces of upmarket bathroom furniture at one affordable price.
