Corner Baths, Bath Panels & Bath Accessories - Boundary Bathrooms

What makes a modern bathroom truly special? It has to be the finishing touches – and there are some amazing bath accessories and bath panels around at the moment to make all the difference for the discerning home improver.

Corner Baths

Everyone loves a long hot bath – it’s a great place to soothe away the cares of the day. But some baths are more special than others and can really make the most of a bathroom. Corner baths, for instance, with their curved bath panels have a hint of uniqueness and add an air of luxury to any bath.

In fact, corner baths are quite a style statement, which is hardly surprising, because they haven’t been around for that long as a design idea. That means corner baths and their sensually curved bath panels, when complemented with the right bath accessories, add an up-to-date air to any bathroom, as well as ensuring that your bathroom will stand apart from most others.

There’s another useful aspect of corner baths – and that’s their amazing space-saving qualities. Average corner baths take up a lot less room than average straight baths, making corner baths the ideal solution for bathrooms where space is at a premium. And yet, you’d never notice that smaller corner baths are less roomy, because corner baths provide such an elegant bathing experience with plenty of room to lie back and enjoy the bubbles.

One area where corner baths score highly is by having a useful shelf – usually matching the bath panels – which comes in handy for bath accessories. It’s great either for displaying useful toiletries and soap holders, or for a design statement such as a beautiful vase.

Bath Accessories

Bath accessories are another area where you can really score if you are trying to create a unique bathroom that will be the envy of your friends. Take mirrors – they’re necessary so you can see yourself while getting ready, but they also reflect light round your bathroom to make them feel airy and spacious. As design-friendly bath accessories, they also come in a superb variety of shapes and styles to add an individual touch. Placing a big mirror over corner baths can create a pleasingly-shaped reflection.

That’s the key to getting the most from your bath accessories. They should be useful, but they should also make a statement without limiting what can often be a fairly limited space.

Choose elegant bath accessories and bath panels such as the range at Boundary Bathrooms to add style without clutter. Bath accessories in glass such as soap dishes and shelves are useful because they are smart and easy to clean while allowing the light to penetrate them.

In recent years, the trendiest bathers have gone for stainless steel bath accessories. Boundary Bathrooms advise that stainless steel has a contemporary look and high-design feel, while providing the light-reflecting qualities that are useful in a bathroom that might have only a small window. Steel towel rails and towel rings are practical bath accessories that are also beautiful – you can follow the theme along by adding tissue boxes (these look good on the shelves of corner baths) robe hooks and even waste bins in the same gleaming material.

Safety should also be of paramount importance in an environment where water and soap can make surfaces slippery, and your bath accessories should always take account of that. Grab rails can make getting in and out of corner baths easier, for instance, while bath seats and booster seats are comfortable and convenient.

Don’t forget the ultimate in modern bath accessories, too – televisions. Imagine the luxury of reclining in your deep corner bath while watching your favourite soap – very appropriate!

One of the most important and eye-catching elements of a bathroom is bath panels, for while freestanding baths have their place, bath panels create a smart finish as well as enhancing the beauty of the bath. Bath panels come in many materials, often matching the bath and bath accessories or in a complete contrast for extra style.

Bath panels often come specifically with the bath you choose, will play a big part in your selection. Many bath panels are simple, while other bath panels have decorative elements that can reflect the theme of your bathroom.

Corner baths, of course, have curved bath panels to complement their shape, while straight baths in a corner need bath panels for both the side and end. It’s worth having a professional to fit your bath panels, as they need to sit in exactly the right place to look fantastic. Of course, bath panels can be easily removed for maintenance.

Choosing the right corner baths and bath panels and teaming them with stunning bath accessories can give home improvers the bathroom they long for. And of course, you know you’ll be lying back in comfort and admiring the finished look!
