Imagine stepping into your Bali bathroom a tranquil oasis designed for relaxation and rejuvenation. But what if small design flaws turn your spa like sanctuary into a source of frustration? Don’t worry, at Bali Home Fix, we’re all about empowering Bali homeowners with knowledge to avoid common bathroom design mistakes. 

So, before you dive headfirst into a Bali home renovation, let’s take a peek at some design faux pas to steer clear of!

1. Size Matters!

Bathrooms, especially in Bali’s beautiful villas, can be on the smaller side. Trying to cram in a jacuzzi tub or a double vanity might leave you feeling cramped and claustrophobic. Our home fix experts recommend carefully measuring your space and opting for fixtures that fit comfortably, allowing for easy movement. 

2. The Battle for Bench Space

Counter space is a precious commodity in any bathroom. Don’t underestimate the importance of ample space for toiletries, towels, and other essentials. Consider built in shelves, cabinets, or a vanity with generous drawers to avoid countertop clutter. 

3. Mirror, Mirror, on the Wrong Wall!

Strategic mirror placement can make a small bathroom feel larger and brighter. Avoid putting the mirror directly opposite the door, it can create an uninviting funhouse effect. Instead, consider placing it opposite a window to reflect natural light and create a sense of openness. 

4. The Shower Showdown

Bali’s tropical climate is perfect for open-concept showers. However, improper drainage can lead to a puddle-prone paradise. Ensure your shower has a proper slope and a well-placed drain to avoid post-shower floods. Here at Bali Home Fix, our home maintenance team can advise on proper drainage solutions for your dream shower. 

5. Lighting the Way (or Not)

A well-lit bathroom is essential for both functionality and ambiance. Dim overhead lighting can be unflattering, while harsh task lighting can feel sterile. Opt for a layered lighting approach, combining overhead lighting with sconces or task lighting near the mirror for a more inviting and functional space. 

Bonus Tip: Embrace the Bali Charm! 

Bali’s natural beauty is unparalleled. Why not incorporate it into your bathroom design? Use natural materials like stone, wood, and bamboo to create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Lush plants can add a touch of the tropics and help purify the air. 

By avoiding these common mistakes and embracing Bali’s unique style, you can create a bathroom that’s both beautiful and functional.
