7 Condo Bathroom Ideas to Start and End Your Days Right
By LLCR Staff

While it may be easy to overlook the bathroom, this room is likely integral to your morning and night routines. Set up a space you’ll love with these condo bathroom ideas.

7 Condo Bathroom Ideas

  1. Spruce up the space with paint – A fresh paint job can work wonders. When refreshing your bathroom, consider a bright white or soft grey for a clean and crisp look. If you prefer a moodier feel or bolder look, try looking into a rich red or sage green. Wallpaper is also a popular alternative to paint that refreshes this room.
  2. Upgrade the hardware – Think of your hardware like jewelry. This tiny detail can add that extra sparkle and function to your space. Replacing old door knobs, cabinet knobs, or towel bars is a simple change to elevate your bathroom. 
  3. Be selective with lighting – A dazzling light fixture may be what you need to add that ‘wow factor’ to your bathroom. Not only do you want to select a style that matches the overall aesthetics of the space, but you also want to be picky with the bulbs. As a general rule of thumb, bulbs labeled  “cool white,” “bright white,” or “daylight” are best for bathroom lighting.
  4. Play around with plants – Bathrooms make the perfect home for plants. Greenery helps bring a space to life, plus most plants appreciate the humidity that bathrooms provide. Plants even help improve the air quality. Consider succulents, like aloe vera and elephant bus, which make a great, low-maintenance addition to this room. You can also create a “bathroom bouquet” with lavender, rosemary, mint, and lemongrass stem to drape over your shower head. They look pretty, and they provide natural aromatherapy.
  5. Invest in Shelves – Floating shelves are a great way to maximize space and add a fun design touch, especially if the bathroom is tight on square footage. They make a perfect and practical way to add additional decor or bathroom necessities.
  6. Find the perfect mat – Your bathroom flooring is likely tile, which can be beautiful and elegant, but not necessarily the coziest. Give your feet extra comfort and your space a ‘pop’ by incorporating a stylish mat in your bathroom.
  7. Hop on the candle train – Candles enhance a room’s fragrance and ambiance. Scented candles specifically can “play an essential role in the physiological effects of mood, stress, working capacity, and overall mental health.”
