6 Ideas To Create A Stylish Bathroom Sanctuary

As the seasons change, our plans for home projects and design change too. But there is one thing that stays constant in the trendiest homes—a remodeled bathroom. A massive en-suite is ideal, but it’s not always feasible. Fortunately, in today’s design world, bathroom design is no longer limited to large-scale bathrooms. With a little creativity, small to medium-sized bathrooms can share in the glory. Colors, shapes, and natural elements can drastically change your powder room, and elevating your style can be as easy as incorporating natural wood, tile, and stone into your design. After all, the beginning and end of each day is usually spent in the bathroom, so why not make it a place for inspiration?

The collection that follows was created to share fresh design ideas for the everyday home. From modern and chic to trendy and bright, our collection of bathrooms is sure to spark some revolutionary thinking. We have included color palettes and styles for everyone, and we hope our collection inspires you to start working on your dream bathroom, no matter the size.

4. Inviting and Calm

Inviting and calming, soft grays create a soothing ambiance. Details become more prominent in clean color palettes. A herringbone pattern placed on the floor and ceiling of this bathroom’s boastful shower is a subtle way to incorporate upscale design elements. Appreciation for nature can be derived from the larger-format wall tiles and their natural veining.
