The design of a toilet is not something that’s usually thought about. But if you’re going to be spending time in the bathroom, shouldn’t it at least look good?

A poorly designed toilet can have significant negative effects on your mood and well-being. It will also have an impact on your health because a dirty or uncomfortable toilet leads to more bacteria being spread around the house. 

The result could mean getting sick, having higher medical bills, and having less energy for work or play.  If you want to avoid these problems, think about things like color coordination when installing new tiles and fixtures; use pedestal sinks or wall-mounted ones; install big mirrors with bright lighting so that there are no dark corners where dirt can accumulate without being seen.

Even subtle changes like these will have a big effect on the overall look and feel of your bathroom.

So if you’re thinking about having new fixtures and fittings, or even an entire bathroom renovation, why not make the most of your hard-earned money by choosing something that really looks wonderful?

To help you make the right choice, here are some of the best modern toilet design ideas from around Singapore.  

All of these designs are clean and simple, but with exciting features like hexagonal tiles, modern wall-mounted sinks, low-lying toilets that are positioned right next to the taps, and high mirrors.  

They will all look great in any modern house or flat.

BATHROOM INTERIOR DESIGN: MATCH THE COLOURS OF THE TILES AND WALLS.

One of the easiest ways to get a beautiful modern look is to match your wall and floor tiles.

In general, you should use similar patterns in your bathroom so as to keep things looking well balanced and harmonious.  

Color coordination can also have a big effect on how attractive something looks.

For example, if you’re using black or white tiling, choose colored fittings that are different but not too contrasting – the absence of color on both levels will enable you to create a simpler overall composition that’s still visually compelling.

You might even want to hold off on painting until after the tiles are laid out; this way you’ll know for sure whether everything matches or not.

USE A PEDESTAL OR WALL-MOUNTED SINK TO SAVE BATHROOM SPACE.

A pedestal or wall-mounted sink is the most elegant kind of bathroom fixture. 

It will enable you to save space, and also give your bathroom a more contemporary look.   

The mirror can be positioned at an angle that suits your layout best.

There are some very stylish pedestal sinks and basin designs in the market these days.  

Wall-mounted sink designs are also very popular at the moment; they don’t take up any space and look great with mirrors installed right next to them for convenience and effective lighting.

INSTAL A BIG MIRROR.   

Nothing helps you feel and look more beautiful than a big, well-positioned mirror.

And if the light is good, it can also help you create that perfect hairstyle or apply make-up to make yourself look your absolute best.

The way mirrors are positioned in bathrooms has changed quite dramatically in recent years, with floor-to-ceiling designs no longer being as popular as they once were.  

Instead, people now prefer top-hung designs especially for smaller bathrooms, and this kind of mirror will definitely help increase the amount of natural light coloured surfaces available at ground level.

It’s also a good idea to install one above the sink and choose a design that’s not too bulky or ornate so as to prevent it from obscuring your view.

INSTALL A FLOATING VANITY.   

The floating vanity is probably one of the best options for a small bathroom.  

It’s versatile and it will allow you to keep lots of space open around the sink so that even when you’re sitting down, you still have enough room to move around without feeling cramped.

You can also choose an attractive storage option like a cabinet or shelves underneath it if there are more than two people living in your home or apartment. 

If you need extra storage but don’t want to take up too much floor space, it’s also possible to install pull-out cabinets, this way your toothpaste and cosmetics will always be within easy reach in the morning and late at night while still having plenty of room to move around in all

If you’re looking for a neat, tidy kind of design that’s close to the floor and takes up little space, a floating vanity might be just what you need.

They are made from solid wood and usually come in simple styles with no ornaments on them.  

They can be installed right next to your pedestal sink if they aren’t too large, but people generally make use of wall-mounted sinks instead because these kinds of vanities tend to be quite small.

intriguing and interesting visually, but also great for cleaning things like bathtubs and counters.

INSTALL BRIGHT LIGHTING AS MUCH NATURAL LIGHT.   

If you’re thinking of replacing your bathroom lighting, it’s a great idea to choose some lamps that come with bright and modern shades.  

These can be very effective for creating a softer atmosphere within the space.

Lighting is also important for photography. bathrooms are usually one of the best places in the house to take pictures so don’t forget to add light if it isn’t much available.  

Lighting can have a big effect on the overall aesthetic appeal of your bathroom, as well as how easy it is to clean.  

Flooded lights are ideal if you’re looking for something classy and functional, they’ll enable you to see things in all their glory. 

Outdoor lamps might be better for more cozy spaces, especially those with wooden bathroom flooring or bathroom tiles that reflect light, while halogen and LED lighting will give your bathroom a cleaner, sleeker look.

CONSIDER A WALL MOUNTED TOILET BOWL

Wall-mounted toilet bowls units usually have smaller dimensions making them perfect compact bathroom solutions such as HDB toilets. By pulling them from the floor you create an illusion of a greater room. Then there can be some disadvantages to using the toilet in place. They tend to cost more and are usually more expensive to maintain when compared to wall mount toilet units. 

Conclusion.

In this blog post, we have discussed how to create a great-looking modern bathroom.

To get started on your new design, try applying some or all of the following principles:

make use of bright lighting and mirrors for optimum visual appeal, install a pedestal sink with an attractive basin or wall-mounted bathroom vanity instead of traditional countertops if you’re short on space, and finally combine black tiling with colored fittings.

Remember that there is no one size fits all solution, it’s important to take into account what kind of personality you want (elegant? contemporary?), as well as your specific needs when designing a bathroom from scratch.
