The colors and lighting in the bathroom can go a long way to how we feel early on: we will be full of energy and vigor or killed and in a bad mood.
The bathroom is usually the first room we enter in the morning when we wake up and the last one we leave before going to bed. We also visit it several times during the day: we perform basic hygiene needs in the bathroom, as well as the more demanding ones, with which we relax and pamper ourselves a bit. As in all other areas of the apartment or house, we must therefore feel comfortable in the bathroom, because it affects our good mood and energy. The colors and lighting of the bathroom, as well as bathroom furniture and other equipment, contribute to this.
Our image in the mirror depends on the light
It is very important what kind of light is in the bathroom, because it depends on how we see ourselves and how we feel about it. The shadows under the eyes and the wrinkles at the corners of the mouth thrown by the lights placed above the mirror will put us in a bad mood in the morning. Therefore, it is better to illuminate the mirror on the side with symmetrically placed light fixtures. Such an arrangement of lights has an additional effect: the mirror reflects light and visually enlarges the space. In a smaller bathroom, mirrors can be placed on the cheeks of cabinets or even cover part of the wall with them. Bathroom furniture can significantly contribute to the look and feel of a "home wellness".
With daylight, the rooms come to life
Of course, it is optimal if we have daylight in the bathroom, because with it the rooms come to life. Floors and walls, surfaces, colors and structures change as they reflect the sun’s rays penetrating through the window. If we do not have a window and cannot install it later, we may be able to install a door with an overhead light or a fixed window under the ceiling that provides indirect lighting, for example through a hallway or bedroom. Fixed windows under the ceiling are a common choice in blocks of flats, where bathrooms are often in the center of the apartment due to lack of space. The solution for bathrooms without a window is also offered in some places by light shafts, which supply natural sunlight into the room.
Warm and ambient light
Where there is no natural light, we must therefore provide good enough artificial lighting for the bathroom. The entire room should be illuminated by a strong ceiling lamp, which should emit diffused warm light. In addition to the already mentioned lights next to the mirror, we can place smaller light fixtures in shelves or niches, which will provide ambient lighting, especially if we can regulate the intensity of the light. In addition to the light effects, the colors will also make their mark. Since bathrooms are renovated on average every 20 years, we need to choose shades from a neutral color scheme, for example in gray, white or brown tones. Bathroom accessories and accessories can be chosen in your favorite colors, which will add warmth and a personal touch to the space. It is the colors and lighting of the bathroom that can have a decisive influence on how our day will start.
