			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Modern bathrooms combine fantastic style with practicality and Big Bathroom Shop has everything you need to create a sleek, modern look regardless if you have a small en-suite or a bathroom with bags of space. A modern bathroom needs to be a place where you can relax and unwind after a long day but also needs to be a space where you can get ready on busy weekday mornings too.</p>
<p><strong><em>Storage</em></strong></p>
<div id="attachment_6465" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 254px"><a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/furniture-and-accessories/modular-furniture/phoenix-ciro-75cm-unit-with-1th-basin-marango" target="_blank"><img class="size-full wp-image-6465 " title="Vanity Unit" src="http://blog.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/000000840600020001.jpg" alt="" width="244" height="244" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Vanity Unit</p></div>
<p><span id="more-6459"></span>Now a more popular choice than ever for modern bathrooms is to include <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/furniture-and-accessories/modular-furniture" target="_blank">bathroom furniture</a> so you can store all your bathroom essentials out of sight for a neat and tidy look. Nothing looks worse than a bathroom full of clutter and a small space will feel even more cramped so only keep what you need on a daily basis stored away in a vanity unit or mirrored cabinet. Big Bathroom Shop has a stunning array of bathroom furniture in a variety of sizes, styles and finishes to suit every bathroom so you can be sure to create a clutter free space. Bathroom furniture is also a great way to introduce colour and texture into your modern bathroom, which adds extra interest.</p>
<p><strong><em>Bathe In Style &amp; Comfort</em></strong></p>
<div id="attachment_6466" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 254px"><a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/baths/freestanding-baths/milano-contemporary-oval-freestanding-bath" target="_blank"><img class=" wp-image-6466 " title="Contemporary Freestanding Bath" src="http://blog.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/000000938500010001-300x300.jpg" alt="" width="244" height="244" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Contemporary Freestanding Bath</p></div>
<p>A contemporary <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/baths/freestanding-baths/milano-contemporary-oval-freestanding-bath" target="_blank">freestanding bath</a> will provide your modern bathroom with a feeling of luxury and will certainly add some wow factor, if you have enough space why not position the bath in the middle of the room so it will be the first thing you see when you walk into the bathroom? Also, double-ended baths are becoming more popular as they feature a spacious bathing area and you can choose to bathe at whichever end you require as the taps are in the centre.</p>
<p><strong><em>Basins &amp; Toilets</em></strong></p>
<div id="attachment_6469" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 254px"><a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/pottery/basins/bathroom-sinks-for-furniture/roca-urban-london-countertop-basin-no-th" target="_blank"><img class=" wp-image-6469 " title="Roca Urban London Countertop Basin" src="http://blog.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/000000817600010001.jpg" alt="" width="244" height="244" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Roca Urban London Countertop Basin</p></div>
<p>Basins and toilets come in a huge range of styles and designs, but if you want to create a sleek and minimal look why not opt for wall-hung pottery? A <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/pottery/toilets/wall-hung-toilets" target="_blank">wall-hung toilet</a> and basin will create maximum floor space for a neat, unfussy look and cleaning your floor will be less of a chore! Countertop basins are also perfect for modern bathrooms too and will provide a spa-like feel. A countertop basin is for use on a piece of bathroom furniture such as a vanity table or vanity shelf and there are many designs for you to choose from, including the ultra-chic <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/bathroom-brands/roca/urban-collection/pottery" target="_blank">Roca Urban countertop basin collection</a>.</p>
<p><strong><em>Final Details</em></strong></p>
<div id="attachment_6473" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 254px"><a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/taps-and-wastes/basin-taps/basin-monobloc-taps/phoenix-ca-single-lever-basin-mono" target="_blank"><img class="size-full wp-image-6473 " title="Phoenix Waterfall Tap" src="http://blog.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/000000860700040001.jpg" alt="" width="244" height="244" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Phoenix Waterfall Tap</p></div>
<p>With the right style of <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/taps-and-wastes" target="_blank">taps</a> your modern bathroom will look fantastic. Waterfall style taps will add a touch of designer style and will enhance the modern look of your bathroom. A chrome finish always looks great but if you want something a bit different why not choose taps with a matt black finish instead? A dazzling bathroom mirror, accessories and a <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/furniture-and-accessories/towel-rails-and-radiators/heated-towel-rails" target="_blank">heated towel rail</a> will perfectly complete your modern bathroom.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Your bathroom no longer has to look cold and clinical and adding a bold splash of colour to your bathroom is a fantastic way to liven up the look and create a striking feature. Introducing colour into the bathroom is becoming an increasingly popular choice and is great for providing a feeling of warmth and there are plenty of ways in which you can add some colour to your bathroom. Big Bathroom Shop has a superb choice of bathroom furniture and baths that are available in a stunning array of colours and finishes, so you can easily achieve your dream bathroom.</p>
<div id="attachment_6435" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 254px"><a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/furniture-and-accessories/modular-furniture/adatto-casa-1200-wenge-vanity-unit-and-ruby-red-glass-top" target="_blank"><img class="size-full wp-image-6435 " title="Adatto Casa Ruby Red Vanity Unit" src="http://blog.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/000000139400010001.jpg" alt="" width="244" height="244" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Adatto Casa Ruby Red Vanity Unit</p></div>
<p><span id="more-6431"></span>A great way to introduce some colour into your bathroom is through the use of bathroom furniture such as a vanity unit. Vanity units come in a variety of colours and finishes including gloss red, black, cream, zebrano and walnut so you can create a look that suits you. The <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/furniture-and-accessories/modular-furniture/adatto-casa-1200-wenge-vanity-unit-and-ruby-red-glass-top" target="_blank">Adatto Casa 1200mm vanity unit</a> features stunning ruby red doors and glass top and will certainly add a very luxurious feel to your bathroom, plus there is plenty of storage space for all your bathroom essentials too. If ruby red isn&#8217;t your colour how about the chocolate coloured version instead? Both will look equally stunning.</p>
<div id="attachment_6444" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 254px"><a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/furniture-and-accessories/modular-furniture/adatto-casa-opera-1200-wenge-vanity-shelf-and-green-glass-top" target="_blank"><img class=" wp-image-6444 " title="Adatto Casa Kiwi Green Vanity Shelf" src="http://blog.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/000000240700010002-300x300.jpg" alt="" width="244" height="244" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Adatto Casa Kiwi Green Vanity Shelf</p></div>
<p>For something really striking the <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/furniture-and-accessories/modular-furniture/adatto-casa-opera-1200-wenge-vanity-shelf-and-green-glass-top" target="_blank">Adatto Casa vanity shelf</a> with Kiwi green glass top will certainly create an eye-catching focal point in any bathroom. The kiwi green perfectly contrasts with the wenge and there is plenty of space for your toiletries and a countertop basin too.</p>
<div id="attachment_6436" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 254px"><a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/furniture-and-accessories/modular-furniture/balterley-600-zebrano-walnut-vanity-unit-with-basin" target="_blank"><img class=" wp-image-6436  " title="Balterley Zebrano Vanity Unit" src="http://blog.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/000000563300010001-300x300.jpg" alt="" width="244" height="244" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Balterley Zebrano Vanity Unit</p></div>

<p>The <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/baths/freestanding-baths/phoenix-assai-1700x750-freestanding-bath-black-surround" target="_blank">Phoenix Assai</a> freestanding bath features a black surround, which will add a bold, dramatic statement to your bathroom, but if you would prefer something a bit more subtle the Phoenix Rubarto freestanding bath with a grey surround is perfect for creating a chic, contemporary look. Also, becoming a popular choice are coloured <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/bathroom-brands/phoenix/bath-panel-collection/baths" target="_blank">bath panels</a>, which are great for creating a co-ordinating look with bathroom furniture.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s no surprise if your bathroom is looking a bit on the tired side, as there is no other room in your house that has to multitask as much as your bathroom does. The bathroom needs to be a place where you can relax and unwind, somewhere you can do your make-up and get ready and even somewhere the kids can have fun too. If you feel that your bathroom could do with an overhaul it can be difficult to decide how much to spend. If you plan to live in your house for the long-term it is always a good idea to sepnd more on a high quality bathroom suite, but if you are on a tighter budget or plan to move look at bathroom suites that offer value for money.</p>
<div id="attachment_6425" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/bathroom-suites/bathroom-suites/laufen-form-300-bathroom-suite" target="_blank"><img class="size-medium wp-image-6425 " title="Laufen Form 300 Bathroom Suite" src="http://blog.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/000000585800010001-300x300.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Laufen Form 300 Bathroom Suite</p></div>
<p><span id="more-6414"></span>The main difference in price between expensive and cheaper bathroom products is usually down to the quality of the materials that are used. High-end bathroom manufacturers use high quailty <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/pottery" target="_blank">ceramics</a>, which are sometimes treated with special coatings that make them easier to clean or repel germs and bacteria. If you want a very hard-wearing bath then consider a steel or cast iron bath, but acrylic is usually the most affordable option. When it comes to <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/furniture-and-accessories/modular-furniture" target="_blank">bathroom furniture</a>, top-end unit doors often make use of wood veneers or even solid wood, which provides a feeling of high quality and solidity, whilst those at the lower end are made from painted MDF or foil-covered chipboard.</p>
<div id="attachment_6426" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/bathroom-suites/bathroom-suites/milano-drake-bathroom-suite" target="_blank"><img class="size-medium wp-image-6426  " title="Milano Drake Bathroom Suite" src="http://blog.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/000000694500010004-300x300.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Milano Drake Bathroom Suite</p></div>
<p>When choosing taps and showers always buy the best that you can afford and choose a brand with a good reputation. <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/taps-and-wastes" target="_blank">Taps</a> are used several times a day so they need to stand up to wear and tear, so it is always worth spending more. When choosing taps make sure you check the guarantee period.</p>
<p>The installation of your new bathroom is also important too, and it is always worth hiring a good professional fitter to ensure your bathroom looks in top condition and even products that are less expensive will look great. There is nothing worse then untidy tiling and pipework and plumbing needs to be trouble-free so unless you know exactly what you are doing, hire a professional plumber and tiler.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When creating a new bathroom storage can often get overlooked, but furniture such as floor-mounted or wall cabinets can hold all your toiletries meaning surfaces are kept clear from any clutter and vanity units which are built around the basin can include shelves and drawers to keep everything hidden from view.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/bathroom-suites/furniture-suites" target="_blank">Bathroom suites</a> which feature bathroom furniture are the best way to create a clutter free look in your bathroom and will help you to be better organised too. Big Bathroom Shop has a fantastic collection of bathroom furniture in a wide range of sizes and finishes so you can be sure to create the exact look that you require in your new bathroom suite. Before choosing any new <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/furniture-and-accessories/modular-furniture" target="_blank">bathroom furniture</a> it is a good idea to have a good sort out and only keep what you need in your bathroom on a day-to-day basis, this way you can choose the most appropriate style of bathroom furniture to suit your exact storage requirements.</p>
<div id="attachment_6262" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/bathroom-suites/furniture-suites/balterley-furniture-showerbath-suite" target="_blank"><img class="size-medium wp-image-6262 " title="Bathroom Suite with Furniture" src="http://blog.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/000000865400010001-300x300.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Bathroom Suite with Furniture</p></div>
<p><span id="more-6247"></span>For those who are updating the look of their bathroom suite, including bathroom furniture has now become an increasingly popular way to achieve a modern and clutter free look. Bathroom suites with furniture can also provide a very sleek, streamlined look and feel and is also a great way to create a more bespoke look too. Bathroom furniture is available in a huge variety of styles, sizes and finishes so you can be certain to find the right fit for the space you have and create as much or as little storage as you require. Most items of furniture are installed around the basin area, such as a vanity unit which features an integrated basin combined with storage underneath. Vanity units can be floor-standing or wall-mounted; if you have a small bathroom a wall-mounted vanity unit is great for creating more floor space.</p>
<div id="attachment_6264" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 254px"><a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/bathroom-brands/bauhaus/edge-collection/furniture-and-accessories" target="_blank"><img class="size-full wp-image-6264 " title="Console Unit" src="http://blog.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/000000903500020001.jpg" alt="" width="244" height="244" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Console Unit</p></div>
<p>Creating a spa-like look has also become more popular for those who are refurbishing their bathroom; this can be achieved by installing a vanity shelf or a <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/bathroom-brands/bauhaus/edge-collection/furniture-and-accessories" target="_blank">console unit</a> combined with one or two countertop basins and a tall basin tap or a wall-mounted tap. Countertop basins are available in a variety of shapes and designs including the very striking <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/bathroom-brands/roca/urban-collection/pottery" target="_blank">Roca Urban collection</a>, which will add a touch of designer style to your bathroom suite.</p>
<div id="attachment_6263" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 254px"><a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/furniture-and-accessories/modular-furniture/balterley-480-dark-zebranno-drawer-unit-white-cabinet-basin" target="_blank"><img class="size-full wp-image-6263 " title="Zebrano Vanity Unit" src="http://blog.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/000000398200020001.jpg" alt="" width="244" height="244" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Zebrano Vanity Unit</p></div>
<p>To liven up the look of your bathroom suite, why not add a splash of colour? Bathroom furniture comes in a variety of finishes ranging from gloss black, gloss white, gloss red, walnut to zebrano and cream, so you can be sure to create a look that reflects your personality. Wood finishes such as walnut are ideal for creating a warm feeling, whilst a white gloss finish will create a cool, chic look.</p>
<p>To complete the look of your bathroom suite, think about creating a co-ordinating look with a matching mirror or cabinet or if you require extra storage a drawer unit or a tall storage unit. By ensuring that everyone in your family has somewhere to store their toiletries you can transform your bathroom suite into a very stylish and organised space.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Designing and creating a new en-suite bathroom is a great way to free up the main family bathroom, especially on busy weekday mornings. An en-suite can even help to add extra value to your home, which is great if you ever want to sell in the future. With careful planning and close attention to detail an en-suite bathroom can be installed in the smallest of spaces and you really don&#8217;t need a lot of space to be able to install a toilet, basin and shower enclosure. Big Bathroom Shop have a fantastic variety of shower enclosures, basins and toilets that are specifically designed for small spaces so you can make the most of the available space.</p>
<div id="attachment_6235" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/bathroom-suites/en-suites/phoenix-morley-with-800-quadrant" target="_blank"><img class="size-medium wp-image-6235 " title="En-Suite" src="http://blog.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/000000577100010001-300x300.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">En-Suite</p></div>
<p><span id="more-6228"></span>One of the main challenges when creating a new en-suite is deciding where best to position the toilet, basin and shower enclosure. It is important that there is enough space around each item, which will make getting ready as easy as possible. It is a good idea to choose space saving items to help maximise the available space as much as possible.</p>
<p><a title="Maximise Space With A Quadrant Shower Enclosure" href="http://blog.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/index.php/2011/12/06/maximise-space-with-a-quadrant-shower-enclosure-2/" target="_blank">Quadrant shower enclosures</a> are ideal for small en-suites as they feature a curved front, which helps to create more floor space. Make sure you choose one with sliding doors so no extra room is required to allow for the doors to open. Quadrant shower enclosures are available in a choice of sizes ranging from a compact 800x800mm to a more spacious 1200x900mm offset style. Bi-fold showers doors are also great for small en-suites as the whole door folds back on itself to allow for easy access in and out of the shower.</p>
<p>Toilets with shorter projections than standard are great for creating more room, some toilets such as the <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/pottery/toilets/close-coupled-toilets/vitra-s50-compact-close-coupled-toilet-cistern-and-seat" target="_blank">Vitra S50 compact toilet</a> measure just 600mm from front to back. A wall-hung toilet is also ideal for an en-suite as it can make a small space look bigger than it really is. If your en-suite has an awkward shape think about choosing a corner toilet so you can make the most of what otherwise could be wasted space.</p>
<p>Your choice of basin will make all the difference too. A wall-mounted basin is great for freeing up floor space and there are a variety of styles and designs available for you to choose from; some even include a handy towel rail. The <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/bathroom-brands/roca/meridian-n-compact-collection/pottery" target="_blank">Roca Meridian-N compact collection</a> includes a choice of compact basins which are designed to make space saving within your bathroom easier than ever. A corner basin is ideal for an awkward shaped en-suite and will help you to make the most of the available space.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t forget to include some <a title="A Guide To Bathroom Furniture" href="http://blog.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/index.php/2011/11/02/a-guide-to-bathroom-furniture/" target="_blank">storage</a> in your en-suite, if the room is full of clutter it will only make your en-suite appear even smaller. A wall-mounted vanity unit or mirrored cabinet will provide you with somewhere to store your bathroom essentials out of sight for a clean, minimal look.</p>
<p>Finally, the finishing touches such as a shower, basin tap, lighting and tiles will bring your en-suite to life. A large illuminated bathroom mirror will help to make your en-suite appear more spacious and a <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/furniture-and-accessories/towel-rails-and-radiators/heated-towel-rails/phoenix-ascot-designer-radiator-800x500" target="_blank">heated towel rail</a> will provide you with somewhere to place your towel.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Creating a contemporary bathroom is a great way to provide your home with a stunning focal point and will be a place where you can look forward to coming home to after a long day. Contemporary bathrooms are all about sleek, streamlined styling and feature the latest in bathroom product design, which will really add that wow factor to any type of home. A contemporary style can be created in any shape or size of bathroom if planned and designed well and will provide you with a place where you can truly unwind and relax. Here are some fantastic ideas for creating a contemporary bathroom:</p>
<div id="attachment_6221" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/bathroom-suites/freestanding-bath-suites/milano-staten-freestanding-suite" target="_blank"><img class="size-medium wp-image-6221 " title="Freestanding Bath Suite" src="http://blog.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/000000004200010001-300x300.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Freestanding Bath Suite</p></div>
<ul>
<li><span id="more-6208"></span>A walk in shower enclosure will look fantastic in a contemporary bathroom and provides a quick and easy way to shower. <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/shower-enclosures/walk-in-showers" target="_blank">Walk in showers</a> feature plenty of showering space and they are available in a range of sizes too and you can choose between curved or straight glass.</li>
<li>A striking contemporary <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/baths/freestanding-baths/phoenix-assai-1700x750-freestanding-bath-black-surround" target="_blank">freestanding bath</a> will certainly add some wow factor to your bathroom and will provide you with somewhere to have a relaxing soak, helping you to unwind after a long day. For a touch of designer style why not choose a freestanding bath with a black or grey surround?</li>
<li><a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/pottery/toilets/wall-hung-toilets" target="_blank">Wall-hung toilets</a> and basins are ideal for contemporary bathrooms and provide a very sleek look and feel. They are also perfectly suited to small bathrooms as they create the illusion of more floor space.</li>
<li>Creating a wet-room style showering area will look fantastic in a contemporary bathroom, providing a very stylish focal point. Opting for a <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/shower-enclosures/wetroom-glass-panels-and-kits/ultra-premier-1200-x-1850mm-wet-room-screen" target="_blank">wet-room glass screen</a> will protect everything in your bathroom from getting covered in water, whilst still creating a very sleek and minimal look. Define the shower area with some gorgeous mosaic tiles.</li>
<li>To create a real style statement why not install two large, rainfall style <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/showers/shower-valves-and-accessories/shower-heads/phoenix-design-round-shower-head" target="_blank">shower heads</a> for a totally refreshing shower?</li>
<li>Some striking taps will really bring the look of your contemporary bathroom together. A <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/taps-and-wastes/basin-taps/basin-monobloc-taps/crosswater-love-me-basin-monobloc-no-pop-up-waste-chrome" target="_blank">waterfall style tap</a> features a luxurious flow of water and will add a spa-like feel too.</li>
<li>Include some bathroom furniture such as a <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/furniture-and-accessories/modular-furniture/bauahus-stream-drawer-vanity-unit-590-american-walnut" target="_blank">vanity unit</a> so you can store your bathroom essentials out of sight for a clean and minimal space. Opt for a finish such as walnut or zebrano to add a touch of warmth and luxury.</li>
<li>A vanity shelf with one or two <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/bathroom-brands/roca/urban-collection/pottery" target="_blank">countertop basins</a> installed on top, combined with wall-mounted basin taps will create a hotel-spa feel to your contemporary bathroom.</li>
<li>Create a warm and inviting bathroom with a stylish <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/furniture-and-accessories/towel-rails-and-radiators/heated-towel-rails/milano-sail-1200x485-towel-heater" target="_blank">heated towel rail</a> or designer radiator. Make sure you install it as close to the bath or shower as possible so your towel is within easy reach.</li>

<p><span id="more-6188"></span>If you have a bathroom with plenty of space it is a good idea to install a separate bath and shower enclosure as this will provide a more streamlined look to your bathroom, plus everyone&#8217;s needs will be met too. Double-ended baths are great for a new bathroom as they feature plenty of bathing space and as the taps are in the centre it means you can bathe at whichever end you wish without the bath taps gettting in the way. A luxurious <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/baths/freestanding-baths" target="_blank">freestanding bath</a> will also look fantastic in a spacious bathroom and will add some wow factor. Double basins are a great idea too, especially for a busy family bathroom and will make getting ready much easier on busy weekday mornings.</p>
<p>For those who have a bathroom with limited space there are plenty of space saving products available for you to choose from. Wall-hung basins and toilets are ideal for small bathrooms as they provide the illusion of more floor space and make cleaning easier too. Also, look out for <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/pottery/toilets/close-coupled-toilets/vitra-s50-compact-close-coupled-toilet-cistern-and-seat" target="_blank">toilets with a shorter projection</a> than standard as they will help to create more floor space. If you don&#8217;t have enough space for a separate bath and shower enclosure and don&#8217;t want to compromise on having to choose between the two, then consider opting for a shower bath. A <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/baths/shower-baths/milano-showerbath-1700-rh-noth-with-front-panel-and-screen" target="_blank">shower bath</a> features a clever design that allows you to combine bathing and showering in the same space; choose from the p-shape design or the more contemporary square version.</p>

<p>Including some storage in your bathroom is a great way to create a neat, clutter free look. Think about choosing a wall-mounted vanity unit to create a very modern look and so you can store your bathroom essentials out of sight. Opting for <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/furniture-and-accessories/modular-furniture" target="_blank">bathroom furniture</a> is also a great way to introduce some texture and colour into your bathroom. The final details such as taps, a heated towel rail and some stylish <a href="http://www.bigbathroomshop.co.uk/furniture-and-accessories/bathroom-accessories" target="_blank">accessories</a> will really help to complete the look of your new bathroom.</p>
