Wood is one of the most beautiful, timeless construction materials available on the market. At Mahogany, Inc., we celebrate wood every day of the week and in every room of the house. Here are some of our best interior design tips for incorporating wood into your bathroom design.
Hardwood Flooring
Did you know that you can use hardwood flooring in your bathroom? Many homeowners avoid doing so because they assume it will be damaged over time from the moisture. However, you can actually incorporate hardwood flooring into your bathroom easily. When installing hardwood flooring in the bathroom, you should apply a little bit of extra oil-based polyurethane to seal the surface. You should also take care to maintain the hardwood floors in your bathroom more frequently than those in the rest of your home to ensure no permanent damage due to humidity.
Wood Countertops
Butcher block and hardwood countertops are much more common in kitchens, but they are also a beautiful fit for bathrooms. A richly stained wood countertop is a striking addition to any bathroom, and it can be complemented by any variety of metal fixtures, from bright copper to shiny silver. There are many different ways that you can finish your wood countertops so that they will be protected from splashes and soaps, so work with the pros at Mahogany, Inc. to find the best fit for your lifestyle.
Wood Vanity
A wood vanity made from reclaimed wood can be an absolutely gorgeous addition to any bathroom. Aside from being very pretty to look at, the well-seasoned and treated wood will stand up well to a bathroom environment. Wood furniture does just fine in a humid environment, so don’t be intimidated at the thought of using it in your bathroom or other humid areas of the home.
