Bathroom Update Ideas: From New Mirrors to Cabinets

You don’t have to change everything in the bathroom to give it a little bit of an update. Here we will give you some bright bathroom update ideas on how to give it a bit of oomph, from adding a storage cabinet to giving the room a glow-up with a new Bathroom Cabinet With Mirror… Happy Updating!

1 – New Cabinets + Mirrors

This corner of the bathroom has been updated with the addition of Bermuda Midnight Green cabinets and a stunning Mollie Illuminated LED Mirror. Freestanding items are especially flexible and can be moved if you fancy a change of layout in the future. For safety, tall cupboards should ideally be fixed to the wall with a top bracket. Top Tip: For a practical update, try to include a storage item.

2 – A Designer Radiator

Forger boring radiators! Add a very stylish update to your bathroom by adding a new towel rail such as our Palermo Chrome Designer Heated Towel Rail. It could replace a past its best existing radiator or it could be a new, additional towel rail for the room. It’s fairly straightforward to add an eclectic towel rail without getting involved in re-plumbing tasks. The Palermo comes in central heating and electric versions and in various sizes to accommodate all heat output requirements.

3 – Bath Tap Update

Update that plain white bath with a new set of taps. Choosing Matt Black designs will definitely add a striking new look. Our Aire Matt Black Bath Filler also comes in a Bath/Hand Held Shower option, and a matching Basin Mixer is also available. A black and white colour scheme can also be updated with a splash of colour in the future – perhaps a new set of bright towels or a patterned wallpaper can be added.

4 – A Double Basin Update

If the bathroom is big enough to accommodate a double vanity cabinet, why not go for that very dramatic update?! This layout could definitely be the focal point of the bathroom, especially when combined with a pair of round mirrors. The symmetry is striking and brings a wow factor to a new bathroom. We love the contrast of dark walls and white furniture. This is our Corsica White Wall Hung Vanirt Marble Top unit, styled with a pair of Mollie Black Framed illuminated mirrors. Just perfect!

5 – A Shower Enclosure with a Return Panel

Update your standard shower enclosure with a wet room model that includes a return panel, such as our Munich Brushed Brass Framed design with a Pivotal Return Panel. This design choice will keep the spray contained a little more than a non-return model. Matching brushed brass shower fittings and even brushed brass handles on the cabinetry all add to a luxurious look.

6 – Update with Gunmetal Grey

This understated Gunmetal finish is extremely sleek and can be easily styled to coordinate with black and white schemes. It’s a good halfway point if you’re undecided between matt black or shiny chrome, and we are sure it will become a ‘classic’ choice very quickly. This is our Forth basin mixer tap- and is also available in Brushed Brass for a warmer look.

7 – A Statement Mirror

We are really appreciating the transformation that a new mirror can bring to a bathroom! A statement mirror adds a whole new, updated look. Positioned correctly, a mirror bounces light around the room and makes the whole area feel more spacious. If you’ve got a room with a view, double that up with a large mirror! Our Olivia Black Framed Backlit Illuminated LED Mirror has a heated demister pad, three colour shades of light and is IP44 rated for bathroom use.

8 – Update your Toilet!

Let’s be realistic: toilets aren’t always considered to be stylish, but when a new design comes along that looks both elegant and refined, it’s worth a second look! We love the design of our new Houston Rimless Close Coupled Toilet with a Premium Soft Close Toilet Seat. The close-coupled aspect means the design looks neat, and the slimline seat and lid look super stylish. It’s the rimless pan design that is the major update for the toilet design, plus the advantage of an easy-to-remove seat for quick cleaning.
