Layout & Flow Before: Standard bathtub/shower combo, basic vanity, little thought to flow. After: Walk-in glass shower or freestanding tub, wall-hung vanities to open floor space, more symmetry and balance in layout. 1. Materials & Finishes Before: Basic ceramic tiles, laminate counters, chrome fixtures. After: Marble, terrazzo, or large-format porcelain tiles; quartz or stone counters; matte black or brushed brass fixtures for a luxe finish. 1. Lighting Before: Single overhead light, harsh or shadowy. After: Layered lighting — recessed ceiling spots, wall sconces near the mirror, hidden LED strips (under vanity or behind mirrors) for a warm glow. 1. Color Palette Before: Beige, white, or plain neutrals. After: Bold contrasts (black & white), warm neutrals (taupe, sand), or moody tones (deep green/navy) paired with metallic accents. 1. Storage & Fixtures Before: Bulky cabinets, cluttered countertops. After: Floating vanities, niche shelving in showers, hidden storage to keep surfaces clean. ![before-after-attic-bathroom-renovation-678f8abfaf8f1](https://renovation-reviews.storage.googleapis.com/original/2X/7/7ee9e92f8e826a25a2183277c806f88e6a556cb6.jpeg) ![before-after-attic-bathroom-renovation-678f8b5e3cb20](https://renovation-reviews.storage.googleapis.com/original/2X/5/53bf557bcea9a446d6f6fdaca8c9998129bda328.jpeg) ![before-after-attic-bathroom-renovation-sink-678f8abdcac4e](https://renovation-reviews.storage.googleapis.com/original/2X/4/40277aa767a34cb042237f1fbaec14587386a5ec.jpeg) ![before-after-attic-bathroom-renovation-2-678f8ac059d02](https://renovation-reviews.storage.googleapis.com/original/2X/e/eb28f4141d3a14801331346df1b2f703ce2f27db.jpeg) 1.
