A Guide to a Timeless Bathroom
Clean, Calm Colour Palette
Opting for a neutral colour scheme is an affordable and easy way to ensure your bathroom will never go out of date. Pearly whites and soft greys will not only help you feel relaxed and calm, but stand the test of time, allowing you to change your décor without having to re-tile or change your wall colour.
Bold Simplicity
A bathroom can maintain an overall neutral theme while introducing a bold yet timeless element to make an impact without being too over powering. A feature wall using different tile patterns, colours, shapes or materials are a great way to add character. A freestanding bathtub, floating vanity, stylish hardware or dramatic lighting are also some ways to personlise your bathroom.
Freestanding Bathtub
Freestanding bathtubs have made a comeback over the last couple of decades and they are here to stay! While the original claw foot bathtub is considered in traditional designs, they have come a long way in terms of design, shape and construction. If you have the room, a bathtub can really add value to a bathroom, as everyone wants the option to unwind and relax.
Statement Hardware
Bathroom hardware such as taps, faucets, showerheads, toilet roll holders and towel rails can really elevate the overall look of a bathroom. While prices can vary considerably, there are a number of brands that offer stylish hardware at relatively affordable prices. Opt for metals and finishes that are easy to clean and maintain in the years to come as well as consistent simple styles.
Natural Design
Incorporating natural materials and finishes to your bathroom is a sure way to achieve a timeless design. Choose colours that complement the natural environment, such as earthy clay tones, soft greens and warm yellows. Natural stone, ceramic, marble and timber can be used from the floor tiles to the vanity counter tops to introduce natural design elements. Ensuring your bathroom receives maximum natural light will further enhance its organic appeal and boost serotonin.
