Virtual Bathrooms competition

It may be only a few months since we completely renovated our bathroom, but that doesn’t mean I never think about things we might have done, or what we might do in a bathroom of the future.

Bathroom supplier Virtual Bathrooms are currently running a competition for people to use their bathroom designer tool to create their perfect washing and bathing space.

Our current bathroom is small – not ideal, especially as my husband and I often find ourselves in there at the same time, which leads to much dancing round each other. So the starting point when I began thinking about my dream bathroom was that it would have be bigger, but I’m a realist so I resisted making it palace-sized.

I then chose a large walk-in shower, curved bath and double basins (no more elbowing each other out of the way) and a neat wall-hung toilet. Décor-wise I added a feature sunburst mirror and bold patterned floor tiles but went for pure white walls and – a little like we’ve done in our own bathroom – some classic wood and leafy plants to warm up the space.

I found the bathroom designer tool really easy and quite fun to use and was impressed by how realistic the 3D pictures were. If you were planning a real space, you can adjust the room to make it actual size and add doors and windows where they really are. If you’re just starting out with some ideas it really helps bring them to life so you can see if they work then add things or take them away.

What do you think to my design?

The competition is open until midnight on September 30th. The winner will get an Intuos Pro, while second prize is £100 of Apple Store vouchers, and third prize is £50 worth of vouchers. Good luck!
