Masculine Bathroom Design
Do men linger as long as women in the bathroom? If there are his and her baths, there is no chance for quarrelling about who occupies the bathroom the longest, but, when there is only the master bathroom… well therein the occasional problems lie. Especially if there are several family members scrambling to get out of the house at the same time.
What does the single man, or a man who has his own bathroom, consider the amenities most coveted in this room?
While you might not have given much thought to whether or not a man treats his bathroom as a paradise, or a respite from the pitfalls of day-to-day life, you might be surprised to read that many men would linger longer if the place and price were right to make a bliss-filled bathroom paradise.
First off, forget the frills and frivolity for a man’s bathroom. Pick a manly color to roll or brush onto the walls and be done with it. White or cream-colored walls certainly fit the bill, as do such manly colors as black, pewter gray, tan and mocha, but the lighter neutrals can be deemed a little blah. These latter four colors are neutral, yet masculine looking and all are simple to accessorize. You might want to pair the black walls with pewter gray as a contrast color, and do likewise with mocha walls and tan as an accent. Another popular color combo is steel blue and gray-blue. Of course, you can always flip-flop and do the opposite which would give you a lighter-colored color combo for the walls with the darker accent colors. You might want to consult with a professional at picking paint colors based on the size and shape of the bathroom; this would be a contractor who is experienced in interior house painting in Brentwood, California.
Deciding on the darker-colored wall shades may necessitate additional lighting in the bathroom since early risers cannot count on the sun streaming through the window to assist in the usual morning ablution ritual. The moon will not be of any assistance, so plan on using such trendy lighting options as a trio of pendant lights, or a pair of sconces on either side of the vanity mirror to assist with the general lighting in the room. If additional lighting is still needed or there are shadows in the bathroom, consider adding LED light bulbs, an extra chandelier or recessed lights.
Man’s bathroom
Counter space is not high on the “want list” of most men, as just a handful of items are needed for their morning routine. However, storage space for linens and extra toiletries is pretty handy to have. Cabinetry can certainly help in this regard since opting for the pedestal sink set-up eliminates the space traditionally found in a vanity which houses the sink pipes.
A Bluetooth speaker sound system is a great way to encourage singing in the shower as well as enjoying favorite tunes while relaxing in the bathroom paradise.
Another bathroom amenity guaranteed to bring a smile to a man’s face is radiant floor heating. What a pleasure to step out of the shower or just pitter patter around the bathroom in bare feet on a pleasantly warm floor. Heated towel racks are pretty special too, as well as infrared heating coils which also help take the chill off.
Turn a bathroom into a paradise
A pedestal sink and wall-mounted toilet will free up the bathroom area for bigger and better things. This would include a state-of-the art shower stall with all the amenities like a seat area, and a showerhead with a variety of water velocities to pulsate and pound the stress of the day right down the drain. That permanent shower bench allows for the ability to sit down and relax and really enjoy the pulsating needles of hot water. If bathroom space is at a premium, the ultimate shower stall or steam shower stall will have to suffice, but, if space permits, men also enjoy their on-site sauna or whirlpool as the ultimate bathroom paradise experience and a luxury they will look forward to at the end of the workday, their place to unwind and restore the senses. While women have their soaking tubs, men indulge themselves in these wonderful water features, which, with the assistance of a bathroom designer can just be a few footsteps away and a pleasure to enjoy daily for many years to come.
