Create your own personal well-being haven

In the past, bathrooms were considered as functional spaces that typically resembled a basic wet room. Today’s modern bathrooms serve as a small wellness area and meet the highest design standards. In many cases, spacious, often floor-level, showers and free-standing baths are the focal point in these oases of well-being and turn the bathroom into your own private retreat.
Wellness in your home bathroom extends beyond personal hygiene: the aim is to create a space where you can feel good, relax and unwind. When renovating your bathroom, you should therefore consider the visual effects that will turn this room into a serene sanctuary. For a harmonious atmosphere, include plenty of open spaces and group your various toiletries and fittings together.

Tip

When designing your bathroom, clarify the structural requirements with a specialist, draw up a floor plan and calculate the costs. Only then should you consider optional adding design ideas such as a whirlpool bath or massage jets to your plan.

Press pause on the daily routine

Add individual wellness features to your home spa bathroom to help you relax and forget the stresses of everyday life. It's the little things that make the difference. After a hard day’s work, unwind in a warm bath by candlelight and complete the sensory experience by adding a few drops of essential oils to the water. Let yourself drift away and listen to sounds of nature, meditative mantras or your favourite song in your own spa bathroom. After your pampering bath, apply a soothing moisturising lotion to your skin and curl up on the couch or under the duvet with a book.

Bring the fresh air into your spa bathroom

Creating a sense of wellness in the bathroom goes beyond cosiness – maintaining a fresh, airy atmosphere is just as important. If you are planning a bathroom or renovating your existing one and want to install a whirlpool bath or steam shower, your room will need at least one window. It will help you air the room regularly so you can turn even the most ambitious ideas into reality in your spa bathroom. If you have a windowless bathroom, the steam still needs to escape or harmful mould will build up. Modern ventilation systems that ensure good air exchange are a perfect solution in this case. Fresh air can also come into the bathroom from the neighbouring rooms if you create a draught and use a fan to direct the air exchange through the open bathroom door.

The positive effect of plants

Green plants are a great addition to your modern bathroom. They make every bathroom feel more homely and have a beneficial effect on health, acting as a “natural freshener” by filtering pollutants from the air. Some varieties are particularly good at maximising fresh air in the bathroom. Choose houseplants that don’t need much daylight and can withstand high humidity. Bamboo, chrysanthemums and ivy are considered air-purifying plants, while emerald palms and parnassia are decorative eye-catchers. For a harmonious effect, place your houseplants in attractive containers. At Villeroy & Boch, you can find perfectly shaped glass and porcelain vases, ideal for displaying your plants decoratively.

Wellness in the bathroom – what else is important?

Comfort and hygiene are important considerations for your home spa bathroom. One example is upgrading your bathroom to the highest standards with a modern shower toilet with contemporary features such as a heated seat and remote control. At Villeroy & Boch, you can also find top-class taps that provide water at a pleasant temperature. In the shower, state-of-the-art thermostats contribute to your wellness experience. Our square or round thermostats ensure maximum comfort with the aid of our easily adjustable shower holders and come with integrated scald protection to prevent burns from hot water.
