Do you need a new bathroom? Or would you like to refresh your current bathroom? Then you’ve come to the right place! Because in this article, we will share our best tips and ideas for bathroom decor that feels like paradise.

Can you lay parquet flooring in the bathroom? 

Real oak parquet is not recommended to use in the bathroom, because it cannot tolerate the moisture. However, a 100% water-resistant laminate floor in oak decor will be perfect. The warm and natural look of an oak decor adds cosiness and character to the space. This will help you transform your bathroom into a space of true relaxation. Vinyl planks in wood look and vinyl tiles are also completely water resistant, and therefore also great options. In addition, high pressure floors also have a waterproof core and a water-resistant top layer that protects both the surface and the grooves. It is important to choose the right quality for your bathroom flooring, because you will definitely have to deal with puddles and water.

With the naked eye, laminate is hard to tell apart from genuine wood. It is available in various designs and is very easy to maintain. The surface of laminate is water-repellent, making it splash-proof. For a completely water-resistant floor for the bathroom, BerryAlloc's hydro+ technology is a good choice. This technology provides a water-repellent coating to the edges of each plank. To make the edges of the room water-resistant, use the hydro+ kit. The result is a floor that is resistant to any liquid. Just what you need in a bathroom! More about the moisture-resistant coating Hydro+ from BerryAlloc in the video below:

 

How to use a wood look floor in the bathroom?

Do you enjoy travelling? Design a bathroom with a tropical feel. A couple of simple adjustments will make it seem as if you're showering or bathing in the middle of an exotic paradise. The walls are adorned with green or blue hues that you associate with luscious jungles or clear seas. The furniture is made of bamboo, which gives the bathroom a natural and warm feel. Finally, the laminate flooring features a tropical wood pattern, such as teak, merbau or ship deck teak.

In love with the mountains? Turn your bathroom into a cosy chalet. The walls are painted in mineral colours, such as medium and dark greyish blue. These colours evoke the rough outdoors of the mountains. The flooring looks like warm, amber-coloured, smoked, or black wood. This creates a beautiful contrast with the walls and creates a cosy atmosphere in your bathroom.

Do you dream of a relaxing bathroom with a countryside feel? A rural bathrooms starts with a floor of richly toned wood. This gives your bathroom an authentic and natural look. Bring harmony to your bathroom with colours that match beautifully. More information about colour combinations can be found in Harmony Lab. By installing the sinks on top of a rural sideboard, you can add a unique and personal touch to your bathroom. This will give your bathroom a vintage look.

Do you enjoy the cosy, light, and luxurious feel of a spa? Combine bathroom walls in a warm or powdery white with an elegant grey. A light floor with parquet look in orangey beige or pink shades softens the picture. The furniture can be either classic or contemporary. This will give your bathroom a sophisticated or sleek look. Finish your decoration with a couple of copper-coloured accessories (such as faucets, chandeliers, soap dispensers, etc.) to make your bathroom shine.  

To create a graphic, minimalist, and contemporary style, we recommend going all-in on the unbeatable duo: black and white. Next, you can combine classic and modern materials. Complete the picture with white bathroom furniture, an industrial look bath screen, mirrors with a black metal frame above a double sink, and accessories in black or white marble. Add a warm touch to the space with a blonde or amber coloured wood look floor. This will help you keep your bathroom bright, even when using a lot of black. Is white the dominant colour? Opt for bathroom flooring with the look of dark grey wood.

Does the colour block style appeal to you? Forget about flashy or aggressive colours. Instead, rely on colours with personality, such as vibrant red, true green, light purple or light greyish red. These colours really stand out above a floor in dark or light wood with gray tones, for an elegant saturation contrast.
