What makes a good bathroom for couples?

What makes a good bathroom for couples?

By Benjamin Clarke | Published on 18th May 2021

When it comes to designing the perfect bathroom for the two of you, it's important that you create something that suits both of you.

When you move in for the first time with your partner, you might find that your stylistic tastes differ much more than you might have thought. Therefore, the ability to communicate well and have open discussions about your needs and requirements will ultimately lead to a quality couples bathroom that meets all of your needs.

In this article, we'll offer some tips to help you create the bathroom of your dreams.

The right colour scheme

A huge amount of the atmosphere in your bathroom is created by the colours you choose to fill the room with. The choice of colour can often be a large stumbling block for couples as it's very likely you have differing ideas on what constitutes the perfect colour combination.

The most common disagreement is caused when one half has a penchant for bright and vibrant colours, whereas the other prefers something plainer and more traditional. If this is the case then it's important you sit down and look at all the colour possibilities before making a definite choice.

A great compromise that can work well in these situations is to initially decorate your bathroom in more neutral colours colours and adding colour later in the form of accessories, artwork or feature walls. It's always easier to make things brighter than it is to tone things down.

The right vanity unit

Another factor that is important for couples to consider when creating a couples bathroom is how much time each partner spends in the bathroom, in particularly at in front of the mirror. It's usually the case where one person takes much longer than the other to get ready.

If this is the situation in your relationship then it might be a good idea to install a large vanity unit that incorporates a 'his and hers' basin. Having your own sink and mirror with places to store your grooming accoutrements separately will give you an strong sense of independence from one another. A double vanity allows you both to get ready at your own speed without getting in each others way or the frustration of waiting for space to become available.

The right shower unit

Again, if one of you tends to spend a longer time in the bathroom than the other, then getting your shower set up right could be the key to a harmonious relationship. It could also be the case that the two of you have different preferences when it comes to bathing. One might prefer a long soak in the bath, while the other likes a quick in/out shower. Whatever you like, it's vital your washing facilities suit both of you.

If space allows then a popular choice is to have a bathroom that incorporates two showering areas. This could either be completely separate shower cubicles or a wet room-style bathroom that has two shower heads, like a mini version of a gym or swimming pool changing room.

By having two shower options, it won't matter who takes longer than who to get ready as there will always be a shower to accommodate both of you at the same time.

The right bath tub

A bath tub is the most relaxing piece of furniture you can add to your bathroom. Get it right and you'll create a haven where you can escape from the world and completely recharge your batteries - all in the comfort of your own home.

One of the best ways you can do this is by installing a double-ended bath tub that satisfies both of you. Double-ended (DE) baths tend to have the taps attached in the middle of the bath, which leaves both ends available fr lying against. Not only does this give you the choice of ends but also allows both of you to comfortably relax in the bath at the same time. Add in whirlpool functionalities to the bath and you'll have an incredible experience that you can enjoy individually or together.
