Pampering destination
This bathroom exudes luxury. From the big ticket items, like the feature bath, to the small touches, like the tapware, this haven is a place to relax and wash away the day. The crisp white walls are softened by the off-white flooring and warm wooden beams.
Small furniture
Think of your bathroom as a retreat from the everyday, and deck it out accordingly.
Perhaps that means a bath-side table for candles and a glass of wine, or a stool
for dressing. It’s these little touches that elevate a space from purely functional to wonderfully indulgent and relaxing.
Towel rails
The key is to furnish for comfort, but not overcrowd the space. And if working with a limited footprint, don’t forget to utilise your walls for things like towel rails and hooks. Also, it’s all about timber tones right now. Whether the backdrop is dramatic charcoal or crisp white on white, blonde Scandi-inspired pieces or darker timber furniture adds warmth and textural contrast.
Towels and mats
Embolden neutral schemes with solid colours, on-trend geometric prints or add textural appeal to a monochrome look with beautiful loomed towels in natural organic fabrics. Simple fringing details and tassels can add an exotic feel to these everyday items, and thick-pile floor mats are perfect to sink your toes into. Another option is sophisticated, slimline Turkish hammam towels.
