The final dressing of a room is the paint or wall covering. When building a new home it is typical to see paint sprayed on. The windows, baseboards, and cabinets are covered in plastic or taped off and a spray painter is used to put primer on the walls and ceiling. This same technique is often used for the base and top coats, with the detailed cut-ins being done with a roller and brush. It is common to see the same paint color used throughout the entire home. We have compiled 5 Steps to Remodel Your Bathroom to make the process much easier to understand.
When remodeling or finishing a bathroom renovation project, more attention to paint and paint color is usually taken. You must coordinate the new paint color with the bath décor and theme of the rest of the home. An interior designer at a paint or hardware store can be invaluable in helping you select the perfect master bathroom color, finish and texture. If a full remodel isn't quite what you had in mind then a simple simple Bathroom Revival and make-over may be better for you and your budget
A new trend in washroom wall paint is faux painting. From the French, this term literally means to imitate something of value. The painting technique of faux painting is used to create a texture or design on a wall that resembles another finish, such as stonework, brickwork, or even wallpaper. First, a base color is applied to the wall. Then, a secondary color is mixed with a glaze compound and applied. These water based glazes can create different finishes such as high gloss, eggshell, or satin. Satin finishes are quite popular for bathrooms. The application of this secondary color mixture is where you can achieve different looks. For instance, you can apply this coating using plastic bags, rags, or textured rollers. Faux painting can completely transform a bathroom and especially the master bathroom.
Wall coverings for the bath have also been updated. Decades ago, traditional wallpaper gave way to a more sturdy vinyl product that was easy to wash, stain resistant and moisture repellant, perfect for the room in the house with the most humidity. New graphic technology has given us a multitude of bath-themed designs to choose from, including wall murals. You can create a bathroom wall mural by installing wall covering panels. New trends in wall covering also include different textures now being used. Materials such as crystals, or tropical grasses are incorporated into the wallpaper to exude depth and warmth.
Do not neglect the ceiling when it comes to painting a bath room. The old standard of painting ceilings white has come and gone. New trends include painting ceilings the color of the walls, or painting designs or murals on the washroom ceiling. Your guest bath can reflect other design themes in your home by using the same elements as you would any other room in the home. And using color, textures and you own unique sense of style will certainly help others to feel comfortable and welcome.
