Wood is the ultimate in warmth when it comes to decor. It's natural, looks fabulous and instantly adds texture to a room. Wood is classical, it's beautiful, but it's a no no in the bathroom, right? Wrong. The days of avoiding wood and water are gone. Technologies have allowed for the material to be more versatile than ever. And here are some simple ways of bringing the beauty of wood to the bathroom.
Wooden floors...
Water and humidity mixed with wood might seem like a dodgy mix but if you love wooden floors, you still have options. For bathrooms, hardwood flooring isn't recommended because of swelling and shrinkage when wet. If there's a shower or bath in the room, chances are a sold wooden floor will absorb water and get damaged over time. So if you're set on having a wooden floor, engineered flooring is what's recommended. Speak to an expert and find out what's suitable for your bathroom. Alternatively, wood effect tiles are a fantastic alternative and seriously look the part.

Wooden furniture in a bathroom is very en vogue. From Scandi style to industrial chic, adding wooden accents to the bathroom is timeless and stylish to boot. Here at SONAS Bathrooms, we have a wide range of wooden bathroom furniture - from vanity units to bathroom storage units. From ash, to walnut, dark wood to oak, our wooden furniture is classically beautiful, practical and functional. 
Panelling...
Tongue and groove panelling in a bathroom adds an element of vintage glamour and timelessness. It's an alternative to having your entire wall decked out in tiles and it adds warmth and sophistication to the bathroom. It's also easier to update your bathroom on a budget as painting panelling is a lot cheaper than replacing tiles. Gorgeous. 
Bath Panels...
All of our bath panels are durable and waterproof and specially engineered for use in the bathroom. The wooden panels once again add warmth to the bathroom, which given the amount of porcelain, tile, chrome etc - is by its nature, one of the colder rooms of the house. Bath panels are perfect for adding depth to the room. Sleek, sophisticated and classic.
Mirrors...
