Bathroom style file: a touch of timber
Decorating a bathroom presents plenty of challenges with most of the options for fixtures and finishes being hard, often reflective surfaces. Introducing a touch of timber into your decorating scheme goes a long way in terms of style and texture contrast.
Central to any bathroom layout, a vanity is the perfect place to introduce timber. This clever design uses all of the available space along one wall to extend the line of the timber vanity, adding visual interest and elegant open storage.
If your bathroom is nearing completion or you are looking to introduce timber to an all-white scheme, accessories are a good place to start. This chunky wooden stool serves as a handy bath table, seat and decorative accent, whilst the bath caddy remains sleek and practical.
Grouping items with timber finishes together in a space works to create a stronger impact. This custom vanity provides colour, pattern and texture cues echoed in the mat beneath and is anchored by the wall mounted mirror directly above. A wooden peg supporting the pendant light adds a nice detail.
Timber touches can be more discreet when painted out to the rest of the colour scheme, as in this coastal bathroom (above). A timber vanity provides acoustic benefits and optimum storage, whilst a smooth and stylish ladder presents towels within easy reach.
