shower remodeling gives spa like feel to bathroom

Shower Remodeling is Just Part of this Spa Retreat

By Inspired Remodels / Bathroom Remodel / Comments Off

Refreshing or remodeling the bathroom is a perfect time to incorporate a spa feel. And everyone wants a bathroom environment to help them wind down at the end of a day. Shower remodeling is an important part of any remodel, and when you use the right materials it imparts a spa retreat feel. Combine the right materials and get the right look. Let Inspired Remodels show you how.

Shower Remodeling for Spa Decor

Spa feel starts with lighting. Rimless glass design of this shower maximizes the natural light available through the frosted window.

Spas make free use of natural materials like stone and wood. These aren’t practical for a bathroom retreat that gets heavy use. But that doesn’t mean wood and stone are out. You just get creative with alternative materials.

This shower may look like wood but it’s not. Ceramic and porcelain tiles are now available that emulate wood. They are so close to natural wood only Mother Nature will know for sure.

You’ll know the surface stands up to the heat and moisture of the shower without warping, cracking, or fading. Because it is installed with minimal grout, its easy to keep clean. The fewer surfaces for mold to grow the better in any bathroom.

Arizona Tile brings warmth to any room with its line of Aequa tile. This wood look porcelain is manufactured specifically for use in showers, steam rooms, pool, and steam showers. It has the look and texture of real wood with the durability and maintenance requirements of tile.

Of course it wouldn’t be a spa shower without a rain shower head!

Soaking Tub Sensation

Of course it’s not a real spa bathroom without the obligatory soaking tub. But this bathroom didn’t incorporate just any tub. This soaking tub is spectacular. The clean lines reinforce the simplicity of the spa bathroom. The pure white contrasts perfectly with the warmth of the wood cabinetry while still complementing the washed wood tile. Space is saved by utilizing the lower portion of the shower as the water wall for the tub.

Continuing the wood tile on the wall continues the spa look.

Spa Cabinets

While the shower remodeling set the tone for the bathroom, the new cabinets added more than substance. They added warmth. Light wood cabinets might make this space appear cold. That’s the opposite of what you want in a spa remodel. Your spa look must be relaxing and inviting. That’s the mood established by the dark toned cabinets.

The whimsy of the drawer and cabinet pulls adds charm to this spa retreat.

Hello Spring – Interior Remodeling Company Updates Whole House

Spring cleaning time is here. While some people are cleaning out closets and tidying up the garage, others are completely changing their entire home. Inspired Remodels, an Orange County interior remodeling company, is here to help. We won’t scrub the bathroom windows, but we will take tired old bathrooms and make them new again. Like spring flowers bring a breath of freshness to the yard, Inspired Remodels breathes new life into tired kitchens and bathrooms.

Interior Remodeling Transforms Cottage to Contemporary

The challenge: take a Laguna Beach cottage and transform it to a modern residence. The interior remodeling company: Inspired Remodels and brothers Jason and Joe Mueller. The result: a home with a tranquil, neutral hotel vibe that’s incredibly inviting.

In one bathroom, grey hexagon tile is cooling and soothing. Like a high-end hotel bathroom or a luxury spa, this tile sets the tone for the rest of the room.

The surface is not only aesthetically pleasing, but it is calming in its neutrality. That’s because neutral doesn’t necessarily mean vanilla. This floor is a great example of using dark and light tones as neutrals.

Contemporary beauty!

White subway tile contrasts with the dark wood ceiling and continues the spa feel to the room.

The clean contemporary lines continue with chrome fixtures, accessories, and vanity pulls. Integrated sinks are spacious while being incredibly easy to keep clean. Contemporary gets practical while keeping the flair and refinement of a jet-setting hotel.

Privacy glass in the windows allows light to stream into the room and is complemented by the frosted detail on the mirrors.

Contemporary Kitchen Remodel

Making good use of space was crucial to this kitchen remodel. Ingress and egress with sliding glass doors floods the room with natural light and artfully incorporates the natural beauty of the surrounding area. Light makes small spaces appear larger and this room makes the most of natural and artificial light.

The dark wood floor against the white and grey cabinets give the room a clean and finished feeling. This contemporary kitchen combines refined quiet and a clean sense of style.

The stainless appliances and chrome fixtures amplify the cool, contemporary look and banish any remainders of old, cottage style. An island and ample counter space provide plenty of room for multiple cooks. The island doubles as a base for entertaining as well as a spot for quick morning breakfasts.

This room works hard and looks good.

Contemporary Bathrooms

Two additional bathrooms were part of this total interior remodeling job. Using the same design elements as in the other rooms, two bathrooms were transformed into luxe, spa-like spaces.

Large hexagonal tiles on the wall continue the pattern from the floor in the first bathroom. Two dual outlets under the mirror provide all the power you need for charging electronics and energizing personal grooming appliances.

Chrome and brushed nickle accents and fixtures cement the contemporary vibe.

As in the kitchen, dark wood and light stone are the ying and yang that make this room look so complete.

The final bathroom continues the combination of dark and light to create a comfortable and contemporary space.

Dark wood floors contrast with light cabinetry as in the other rooms. The white cabinetry once again uses light to make the room appear more spacious. Contrasting wall tiles and countertop stone keep the room from appearing too vanilla.

Dark accents on cabinetry, mirrors, and lights provide just enough pops of color to keep the mostly monochrome palette feeling lively.

Spring cleaning this room will be a breeze in years to come. Hard surfaces resist water stains and easily wipe clean.

Spring Into a New Look for Your Home
