Chunky Terrazzo
Terrazzo has been making a return for a number of years for its fun, retro vibe. In this West Coast penthouse, big chunks of color-packed aggregate create a playful, almost candy-like effect on top of the bathroom vanity.
Dusky Blues
If you’re looking to incorporate blue into your bathroom, consider shifting from dark marine to a more tropical, softer blue for bathroom cabinets. In this PMH Showhouse, designer Sarah Baeumler used this blue-grey version on the fluted vanities to show off their texture.
Stone Showers
In this country home, a walk-in shower is lined in monolithic, large stone slabs for a clean, zen effect that brings nature into the bathroom.
Ball Feet
We saw this trend in furniture a couple of years back but now the look has rolled into bathroom tubs. Ball feet are a fresh update on the fussier old Victorian clawfoot tubs.
Colorful Block Stone Sinks
In a small powder room, go for a sculptural sink that emphasizes the pattern of beautiful stone. The veining in this custom pink onyx vanity glimmers like a jewel.
Stripes
Bold bands of mosaic tile enliven this kids’ bathroom, but don’t limit yourself to one kind of contrasting tile. The intriguing shapes and three shades of subtle blue add energy and life to a white subway tile shower stall.
Ofuro-inspired Tubs
Bathing traditions in Japan are elevated by traditional Ofuro tubs, a deep soaking tub made of hinoki wood or other natural materials. This sleek metallic version captures the spareness and beauty of an Ofuro.
Irregular Mirrors
Amoeba shaped mirrors are a refreshing alternative to rectangular or round bathroom mirrors. Their organic shape softens some of the hard edges that are common in bathrooms.
Bathroom Kilims
Killim rugs can stand up to wet feet, and they are a much chicer alternative to bath mats. Their pattern adds to the slate floor in this cottage bathroom, and they are soft underfoot.
Feature Wall
A slab of marble-like porcelain adds luxury to this shower, and is broken up with budget-friendly tiles on the floors and walls.
Limewash Walls
Give your bathroom instant soul by applying a limewash finish to the walls. You’ll feel like you’ve been they transported to an Italian villa every time you walk through the door.
