An architect and an interior designer would provide an insight of the finances or a realistic budget required for the renovation and not only this he or she would ask you some valid questions even before you tell about your preferences. These questions are based on family’s lifestyle and habits etc. and after a reviewed assessment of these answers; the professional would provide a realistic outline of your bathroom. The professional assesses even th  e finer points like environment, sustainability, minimalism and some practical solutions along with aesthetics which a layman might forget to consider.

 

Carve a Budget for your Luxury Bathroom

Bathtub, Basin, Basin mixers, Faucets, Bidets, Cabinets, WC’s, Shower and shower cabinet, lighting, bathroom flooring and bathroom accessories, there is a lot to line up.
