If you’re planning on remodeling your bathroom, think about how to make the room convenient as well as attractive. Bathrooms designed with convenience in mind are cleaner, safer, and more relaxing. They’re also an investment for when family members get older or if any loved ones have mobility problems. Below are some ways to make your space more user-friendly.

3 Design Ideas for Convenient Bathrooms

1. Automatic Faucets

Automatic faucets are often found in public washrooms rather than in homes. But they have several advantages, including improving hygiene since multiple people don’t need to touch a handle. They also conserve water and prevent overflow because you don’t need to remember to turn off the tap. They’re especially convenient for young kids who can’t reach the handle on their own.

2. Shower Seating 

Installing seating in your shower will make bathing safer for the elderly or anybody with mobility difficulties; there’s less of a chance of slipping while sitting down. Additional safety measures might include grab bars and non-slip flooring in and around the shower.

3. Extra Storage

A complaint among many homeowners is how little storage space they have in the bathroom, and remodeling offers the opportunity to fix that. You can find more room with a bit of creativity. Tuck some recessed shelves into the wall of the shower or above the toilet. Install drawer inserts to better organize your toiletries and accessories. Use pegs instead of towel rails to save wall space.
