यदि, after being caught at dwelling for months on finish, you’re taking inventory of your environment and on the lookout for methods to spruce up the looks or enhance the performance of your house, तपाईं एक्लै हुनुहुन्न. In accordance with a report from Evaluate Residence Warranties, on-line searches associated to dwelling transforming are up 84 % यो वर्ष. र loos मा सानो तर प्राप्त गर्न योग्य अद्यावधिकहरू, equivalent to tile, {हार्डवेयर} वा रंग, are among the many extra standard initiatives, प्रतिवेदन अनुसार.

For those who’re going to replace a toilet and also you need your design selections to face up over time, step one is figuring out what types will probably be timeless for you particularly.

“Folks are inclined to fall into one or two camps,” says inside designer Michael Winn of Winn Design and Construct in Northern Virginia. “They need a really classic-looking lavatory, or they need one thing up to date and spalike, जस्तै 4 Seasons.” Translation: धेरै व्यक्तिहरूको लागि, the toilet won’t be the place to get splashy with traits.

However what when you adore daring colours and patterns? “Typically, probably the most timeless issues are the issues that you simply love,"केटी हार्बिन भन्छन्, a designer based mostly in North Carolina. “There are those that redo their lavatory each 10 वर्ष,"र तिनीहरूको लागि, वर्ष र पलको पेन्ट रंग चयन गर्दै {हार्डवेयर} may work.

For many who wish to do it proper and be carried out, यद्यपि, विन, हार्बिन र बोस्टनमा आधारित डिजाइनर एरिन गेट्स, writer of “Components of Household Type,” agreed on 5 lavatory updates which can be actually timeless.

– An all-white palette

Whether or not you favor a classic-looking lavatory or a spalike retreat, विन भन्छन्, “white doesn’t exit of favor.” Assume white paint, टाइल, काउन्टर माथि, भ्यानिटी र कपडाहरू.

यदि तपाइँ रंगीन लालसा समाप्त गर्नुहुन्छ, you possibly can add it with window remedies and towels, गेट्स सुझाव दिन्छन्, वा वालपेपर र कलाकृति. “Simply be cautious of putting in wallpaper in an often-used lavatory with a bathe, because the steam can generally trigger the paper to peel.”

Harbin likes white towels with a distinction trim “in a perky coloration.”

Selecting the best paint coloration might be tough, हार्बिन भन्छन्, so it’s vital to order bigger coloration samples from paint shops quite than counting on paint playing cards. “You may have an earthy lavatory, एक अत्यन्त निष्पक्ष travertine जस्तै, . . . and when you put a stark white with it, यो समतल हुन्छ, however wealthy lotions” will work, उनी भन्छिन्. For those who can’t discover bigger samples, get a pattern pot and paint a poster board to see how every thing appears to be like underneath your lavatory’s lighting. Put the paint subsequent to tile and countertop samples to make sure all of them work collectively.

– Blended metals

Mixing two sorts of metals within the area can get up higher than going with one stylish end all through the room. जब यो विशिष्ट धातुहरु को लागी आउँछ, "पालिश निकल कालातीत छ,"विन भन्छन्. गेट्स, पनि, पालिश निकल मनपर्छ; in her lavatory, उनले यसलाई सुनको ऐनासँग जोडिन्.

When utilizing two totally different metals (र दुई भन्दा बढी छैन), Harbin says to “repeat them sufficient and it’ll look good.” Strive utilizing gold on knobs and a mirror and nickel on taps and {हार्डवेयर}, र सायद तपाईंको प्रकाश, उदाहरण को लागी.

उच्च गुणस्तरको स्टीलमा लगानी गर्दै {हार्डवेयर} may even assist with longevity. A faucet with brass fittings and water-efficient expertise “could also be pricier at first, however you’ll be grateful later,"हार्बिन भन्छन्.

– Marble counter tops

"संगमरमर, or a pretend marble, संगमरमर लुक संग क्वार्ट्ज जस्तै, won’t ever exit of favor,"विन भन्छन्. गेट्स सहमत छन्, Carrara मार्बल को लागी भोट संग.

The mushy, porous stone requires some semiannual resealing to take care of its look, विन भन्छन्; कडा आपूर्तिहरूमा काउन्टर टॉपहरूको नयाँ पुस्ताले मर्मत नगरी संगमरमरको लुक प्रस्तुत गर्दछ. “These counter tops are wonderful in heavy-use loos, equivalent to these utilized by kids,"उनी व्याख्या गर्छन्. Stable-slab marble is usually $100 को $200 प्रति वर्ग. खुट्टा; “marble-like materials” is about $45 को $75 प्रति वर्ग. खुट्टा, विन भन्छन्.

परम्परागत टाइल पैटर्न

नुहाउने वा टबमा सेतो सबवे टाइल कहिल्यै पुरानो हुँदैन, विन भन्छन्. फर्श को लागी, penny tile – white or black and white – remains to be present in houses constructed within the Fifties and ’60s in North Arlington, वा।, विन भन्छन्, यद्यपि खरीददारहरूले थप नयाँ लुसमा यसको लागि सोधिरहेका छन्. Different classics embody hexagonal and basket-weave patterns.

Selecting these tiles in white “will age a bit higher,"विन भन्छन्, साहसी रंग वा ढाँचाहरूमा टाइलहरू भन्दा. (For those who love sample and coloration, as a substitute of a super-bold tile sample, एक गलीचा प्रयास गर्नुहोस् जुन सजिलै परिमार्जन गर्न सकिन्छ।)

Winn ले आधारभूत लुकको लागि सेतो टाइलको साथ सेतो ग्राउट सुझाव दिन्छ. For a extra trendy really feel, सेतो टाइल संग एक कोइला वा कालो grout प्रयास गर्नुहोस्. मापन को लागी, ठूला ग्राउन्ड टाइलहरू, को बराबर 8 बाट भएर 8 इन्च वा 12 बाट भएर 24 इन्च, कोठा ठूलो देखाउन सक्छ, “for the reason that grout traces are much less seen,"विन भन्छन्. साना टाईलहरू - 1 बाट भएर 1 इन्च वा 2.25 बाट भएर 2.25 inches – are additionally good for powder rooms “to create a full, repetitious look.” They may also be helpful in a bathe, as a result of extra grout traces assist forestall slipping, गेट्स भन्छन्.

– A furniture-style self-importance

Winn ले "फ्री-स्ट्यान्डिङ" सिफारिस गर्नुभयो, furniture-grade self-importance,” which can “make the toilet appear much less utilitarian,"उनी भन्छन्.

गेट्सलाई शेकर डोरवेज र अन्डरमाउन्ट सिङ्कहरू भएको फ्रि-स्ट्यान्डिङ भ्यानिटीहरू मनपर्छ - उनको टबमा रहेको मोड. The Shaker fashion is easy, उनी भन्छिन्, अलंकृत विवरण बिना, and it’s rooted in historical past. Gates recommends a customized self-importance, if the price range permits.

सेतो, grey and limed oak wooden are all secure bets for a basic look that received’t age, उनी भन्छिन्. पाउडर कोठामा, Gates recommends a easy pedestal sink and free-standing cupboards or baskets to carry rest room paper and additional hand towels
