Get The Focus Right
This bathroom ticks all the trick boxes - it makes the bath the focal point of the room, but also creates a feature wall behind the sink with stylish tiles. Dorchester bath £4,500; Manhattan vanity basin and washstand, £1,000; East Hampton white marble wall tiles, £99.36 per square metre, Fired Earth (opens in a new window).
Choose A Dramatic Scheme
A monochrome colour scheme can really make a bathroom feel super smart, especially if the accessories are carefully chosen. Think about your bath's placement, too - here, set in front of windows, it's effectively framed. Walls painted in Jack Black by Little Greene Paint Company (opens in a new window).
Create Symmetry
If you have two sinks, pick two matching mirrors to hang above them. Creating symmetry helps a space feel balanced and therefore much bigger than it is. Greenwich bath and Henley basins from CP Hart (opens in a new window).
Hang Curtains
If you have a large enough room, hang voluminous curtains. You'll need to ensure the room is well ventilated and open windows when the weather is warm enough. Usk cast iron bath by Drummonds.
Choose An Iconic Style
It's all the rage and such a simple scheme to create - perfect for a small bathroom. Pod bath, £2,950; Florence basin, £225; Vita porcelain floor tiles, £49.95 per square metre; Metropolitan wall tiles in Queensway, £84.48 per square metre; Metropolitan dados in Warren Street, £4.96 each, Fired Earth (opens in a new window).
Go For Gloss
High gloss surfaces on the floors and walls will give your bathroom a smart, contemporary feel - although they take some maintenance. Memento, Villeroy & Boch (opens in a new window).
Add A Wallpaper
Hanging wallpaper is a sure way to make a bathroom feel less functional and more design-led. Choose one suitable for bathrooms and don't let it come in regular direct contact with water. Grace wallpaper from the Extravagance collection by Harlequin (opens in a new window).
Invest In A Show Off Vanity Unit
A vanity unit is a really practical solution for any bathroom, since it offers storage in a space that would otherwise be storage-free. Go for one that's really good looking, like this Eliptic basin and furniture, Roca (opens in a new window).
Draw Attention To The Bath
Use a simple trick, such as fixing contrasting wall tiles behind a statement bath, drawing the eye towards your best piece. Curve bathroom suite, B&Q (opens in a new window).
