Remodeling your master bathroom will give the space a face-lift and make you excited to get ready in the morning. When planning the updates, think about how you can make the space more functional as well as beautiful. Here are three ideas to get you started.

3 Ways to Update Your Master Bathroom

1. Open the Floor Plan

If your current master bathroom is feeling small due to an awkward layout, open the space to enhance the room’s flow. You may need to rearrange fixtures or claim square footage from an adjacent room to get the space you want. To create long sightlines, replace dated shower walls with sleek glass doors and put large pieces of furniture, like the vanity and toilet, against the walls. An open space will feel comfortable, and you’ll have an easier time relaxing in the bathroom if you don’t feel cramped.

2. Add a Skylight

A skylight is an unexpected lighting choice for a bathroom, and adding one will bring a touch of luxury to the space. This feature will also allow more natural light to filter through the area, giving the room a relaxing, airy feel that’s reminiscent of a spa.

3. Install a Soaking Tub

Soaking in a hot bath after a long day is a wonderful way to let the day’s stresses melt away. If you have the square footage for it, add a clawfoot tub so that you can enjoy a bath whenever you want. To make the experience more luxurious, purchase a model with water jets and an ornamental faucet. Leave about 12 inches of space between your tub and the wall, and ask your remodeling contractor to install a ledge there for your book, music player, scented candle, or glass of wine.
