10 HAWAII RENOVATION JULY 4, 2021
Give your bathroom an upgrade
Blending fashion and function, the best bathroom design ad-
dresses the needs of the homeowner while also re- flecting their personal tastes. What often separates good from great design can be found in the details.
If you’re planning a master bathroom remodel or add- ing a new luxury bathroom space within your home, consider these three impor- tant facets.
LAYER LIGHTING
There are three main types of lighting: task, ambient and accent. Layering these lights thoughtfully in the bathroom will not only make the space more functional, but also el- evate the appearance and provide high levels of flex- ibility.
The main light — often an overhead variety — pro- vides ambient lighting for the overall illumination of the space. Many people choose dimmer options for this bathroom light to give it maximum customization.
Task lighting is essential in the bathroom and might include lights over the mirror or vanity.
When planning and po- sitioning task lighting, re- member to position fixtures to minimize shadows to fa- cilitate activities like shaving or applying makeup.
Finally, accent lighting is a key feature of luxury bath- rooms and makes one space stand out from another. Ac- cent lighting is meant to highlight the special features of the space and might in- clude a light positioned over a painting, a decora- tive chandelier in a changing space or wall sconces by a soaking tub.
SELECT SHOWER DRAINS
Choosing an upscale drain option blends elegance and performance to elevate the shower experience and over- all bathroom design.
For example, QuickD- rain USA offers a variety of unique drain options. For the ultimate in-shower design, consider WallDrain, which is
concealed behind the base of the wall — rendering it virtually invisible. The clean lines of this innovative drain system provide a seamless visual flow in the shower, ideal for a variety of décors, including contemporary or transitional designs.
However, if you prefer a drain that remains visible along the wall or in the cen- ter of the floor, you still have numerous options to elevate your look. Euro-styled linear drains and the new Square- Drain are ideal for conven- tional curbed or zero-entry, curbless applications that allow wheelchair access and ADA compliance.

EVALUATE HARDWARE
Just like that special watch or necklace makes an outfit, the hardware you choose for the bathroom is the jewelry that enhances that space.
Hardware in bathrooms includes knobs and pulls on the vanity but extends to other accessories as well.
This includes towel racks for
bathing and hand towels, toi- let paper holders, soap dis- pensers and shower curtain rods. When planning hard- ware details, don’t forget to add in light switch covers, wall plates and vent covers to create a cohesive, profes- sionally designed look.
Finishes for hardware don’t necessarily need to all match as long as the tones blend nicely and you don’t mix too many finishes to- gether. For example, brushed steel and matte black work well together, but if you mix in more colors, you risk the space looking disconnected and not thought out.
There are many factors that go into creating a bath- room design. It’s important to pay attention to the de- tails if you want to create a luxury space. These three details will help ensure fash- ion and function go hand-in- hand for a space you’ll love for years to come.
