How do you create a year-round vacation feel in your bathroom?
The summer vacations are gradually coming to an end. Ideally, you would like to hold on to that vacation feeling for as long as possible, but we all know that in reality, that unfortunately doesn't work out. Unless you just bring your favorite vacation destination into your home! Facq's range includes bathrooms in a variety of styles. Choose your favorite destination and create a year-round vacation feeling in your own bathroom.
Scandinavia
Vacations to Sweden and Norway have been on the rise for a while now. These days, we prefer cooling off in nature rather than sun, sea and beach. Scandinavian bathrooms are therefore increasingly a source of inspiration for us. They are known for their functionality, minimalism and tranquility.
This translates into rounded shapes, soft colors and natural materials. Choose furniture in light wood and combine with ceramics and natural stone. If you would like a slightly more playful result, integrate some eye-catching accents such as a colorful faucet, a top-mounted basin in terrazzo or a mirror in an organic shape.
Milan
Who says Milan, says design. For example, every year Milan hosts Milan Design Week, the largest and most important interior design fair in the world. The city is also known for its modern style, beautiful architecture and glamorous fashion. Would you also like such a luxurious bathroom with Italian flair? Then the design bathroom is totally for you!
In a designer bathroom every detail is thought through to the last detail, nothing is superfluous. Luxury materials, a sleek finish and optimal comfort form the red board. For example, a design bathroom often includes the latest technological gadgets, such as massage showers and smart home applications. Opt for a sober color palette and combine it with washbasins in natural stone and furniture in solid wood or veneer for a stylish result.
The Dolomites
In northern Italy you will find the Dolomites, a mountain range known for its sheer cliffs, green valleys and clear blue lakes. Now that we are all hiking en masse, this region is also becoming increasingly popular. Beautiful hotels in modern cottage style are springing up like mushrooms.
Within this style, natural materials such as wood and natural stone stand out. A soft color palette with neutral tones that we also find in nature brings tranquility and charm to the room. Match your faucets, lighting and handles for a balanced result. This will create the perfect space for relaxing and cocooning.
Ibiza
The paradise island of Ibiza seems to have a magical attraction. For many, this destination tops their bucket list, and once you've been there, you'll want to go back year after year. The beautiful beaches, delicious food and relaxed atmosphere undoubtedly have something to do with this. But to avoid paying yourself blue every year, you can also simply incorporate that casual boho style into your own bathroom.
It's not that difficult. Natural materials such as wicker, linen and cotton provide that typical Ibiza atmosphere almost immediately. In terms of colors, it is best to choose warm colors such as terracotta and yellow ochre and combine them with neutral tones such as white and beige. Add some fun accessories like a wicker basket or a rattan rug and you're done!
New York
New York is another typical destination that we all want to have visited once in our lives. And we totally understand why! The 'City that never sleeps' has a lot to offer. The most diverse attractions, surprisingly many parks, restaurants and stores, a beautiful skyline and its own interior style: the New York loft.
Typical of the New York loft is the rough, industrial character. It is best to choose robust materials such as concrete, steel and dark wood. If you would like a slightly warmer result, add some softer elements such as woolen fabrics, rounded shapes and matte faucets. Another must for this style are the black accents that appear throughout the bathroom in such things as faucets, accessories and shower profiles.
Dubai
Dubai is all about glamour and excess. With its stunning architecture, beautiful beaches and gigantic shopping malls, this fascinating city offers something for everyone. Even for the little ones, as this luxurious destination is known to be very child-friendly. If you like to imagine yourself in Dubai every day, then the chic classic style is exactly what you are looking for.
Chic classic, like the design style, stands for luxury and comfort, but with a nod to the past. For example, within this style we often see cross-shaped faucets. In gold, of course, for an extra over the top result. Luxurious materials such as marble and solid or veneer wood should not be missing either. In terms of colors, you can actually go two ways. Either you choose a light color palette in combination with white marble or you go very dark and combine warm colors like emerald green or brown with dark marble and wood.
Paris
Like Emily, have you lost your heart to Paris and would love to get yourself ready every morning in one of those romantic boudoir bathrooms? Then you will probably find your choice within the vintage range. Go all the way with a pedestal sink, a classic mixer tap and a bathtub on legs. Or opt for a retro bathroom. This contains the typical elements of the past, but in a contemporary look.
For a classic vintage result, it is best to choose light colors such as white and beige, but pastel shades are also possible. Thus, all the attention goes to the beautifully detailed furniture and the classic faucet work in chrome. Even tiles can not be missing in the vintage bathroom. For a retro bathroom, it is best to work with a slightly warmer color palette such as old pink or sage green. Combine with terrazzo tiles, a piece of furniture on legs and gold or black faucets et voilà!
