Bathrooms In today’s episode, we’ll be talking about bathrooms! When designing a bathroom, it's important to think about how it connects to the exterior and the spaces around it. The bathroom's design should be based on your personal needs and preferences, as well as the function of the space. You should consider who will be using the bathroom and for what purpose, whether it's just for going to the bathroom or also for getting ready, or for medical needs. Once you have determined the function of the bathroom, you can think about the materials and design elements that will be necessary. It's also important to consider the overall style and aesthetic of the rest of the home, as you may want the bathroom to either blend in or contrast with it. Finally, don't forget to think about the context of the space and how it can be used to enhance the design, such as incorporating natural elements or creating a connection to the surrounding landscape. Please stay tuned for this and more, and make sure to listen to the subsequent episodes for the new mini-series of the Kitchen, Bath & Beyond.

Look beyond trendy ideas and focus on what you really want and how you want your bathroom to function. ● The way you think about what you want can bring joy to you, so if there is something that's important, it's okay to have fun with that as well. ● When choosing hardware for your bathroom, ask yourself, how does it relate to the overall look and feel of your home? The thing that you've wanted to tell the narrative for, or is it supposed to be a stark contrast? ● When starting a project, focus on the narrative and what you want first before creating an image board. Use samples to piece everything together. While images can help communicate your thoughts, it's better to start with your own ideas first.
