1. Apply non-slip coating over existing floors (vinyl tiles, ceramic tiles, laminates, hardwood and natural stones) such as shower cubicles;
2. Ensure adequate ventlation and natural lighting to prevent mould;
3. Augment general lighting with "task lighting" to facilitate tasks such as makeup and shaving;
4. Make use of all the available space in the room for storage (i.e. beneath the basin, behind the mirror);
5. Conserve water consumption by making use of dual flush toilet cistern; conserve electricity by making use of the LED lighting;
6. Always try on the toilet bowl before buying it; enlongated bowls and seats are usually more comfortable;
7. Always try out the bathtub before buying it; check the back and lip of the bath for comfort; if you cant accommodate the a full-length bath, consider an extra deep one;
8. Avoid drilling through the tiles, which can crack easily, as much as possible choose fittings that doesn't require drilling; or drill in between the tiles;
9. Install an air freshener;
10. Color coordinate bath towels, toiletries and fittings;
11.** Install a small wall clock, shaver or hair dryer holders.
** Extra recommendations. :)
