10 Gorgeous Exposed Brick Bathrooms
See how the raw beauty of exposed brick can work with any number of bathroom styles
If you thought having an exposed brick wall in your bathing space limited you washing in industrial style forever more, think again. While raw brick and urban style do work exceptionally well together, this unveiled attraction also lends itself beautifully to the homeyness of country decor, the gypsy-like sweetness of boho styling, the carefully considered aesthetic of contemporary spaces and so much more. See how.
2. Contemporary
A brick back wall gives this otherwise black-and-white bathroom a big warm hug and adds softness to the sleek lines of the fittings. Without the ruddy masonry, this space would be beautiful but a bit on the clinical side. With it, the contemporary bathroom gains a strong sense of balance.

3. Eclectic
Proving that exposed brick need not be raw and unfinished, this decadently eclectic space combines a touch of Art Nouveau in the mirror frame, elements of rusticity with the heavily grained timber of the vanity doors, a splash of Scandi in the pared-back yet natural colour scheme, and just a sprinkle of industrial in the door pulls and exposed bulb pendant. As a backdrop for all of these styles, the exposed but beautifully maintained brick wall ties everything together and makes this master bathroom utterly inviting.

4. Country
White wood panelling alongside the deep shades of a multi-coloured exposed brick wall conjure the very essence of homey country style in this bathroom. A wrought-iron caddy and white enamel jug are the perfect accessories to make soakers in the freestanding tub feel as though they’re welcome guests in a country manor, while the natural tones of the woven reed wreath set the space off nicely.

5. Traditional
Chandelier, spa bath and a serene garden view come together in the traditional rusticity of this exposed-brick alcove, creating a space that speaks softly of impeccable taste. There’s nothing cold or especially raw about this bathroom; rather, it’s all about warmth, comfort and just a hint of luxury. Bliss.

6. Glam
In this relatively pared-back space, it’s the luxurious touches that bring hotel-style glamour, such as the richly toned marble on walls and vanity top, the rain showerhead, and the colourful crystal-cut chandelier. Meanwhile, the exposed brick on the top half of the walls grounds the ethereal white space, adding an earthy element that heightens its glamour that bit further.

7. Rustic
The roughly re-revealed nature of this reclaimed pink-toned brick wall is suggestive of a rustic aesthetic, but with a more contemporary slant because of the clean white walls and ceiling, light-toned floorboards and a considerable amount of light. The reclaimed brick usefully creates the structure for two vanities. A recycled mirror, window frames and weathered stool enhance the look.

8. Victorian
Opulence is redefined in this cosy yet incredible bathroom, which harkens back to the style and simplicity of yesteryear. While the fixtures for the shower and the tapware are definitely modern, the feature pieces – namely the copper freestanding bath, the pot-belied stove set into the orange-toned brick wall and the chandelier – all bring to mind the glamour of a Victorian-era cottage.

9. Boho
Here, the areas of exposed brick are kept to a minimum, adding a subtle touch of colour to a modern boho bathroom that otherwise has its head in the clouds. An Art Deco-style heart-shaped mirror brings romance to the floaty space, along with the sheer white curtains and fabric pendant shade with golden tassles. Coloured pompoms on the bottom of the window sheer add another hint of eclectic boho style, and round out the space nicely.

10. Scandi
Clean. Uncluttered. Natural. These are some of the tenets of simple Scandinavian style, and this basic but beautiful bathing space has it all. Clean white-tiled walls that bounce natural light around, check. Clear, uncluttered surfaces with simple lines and a fuss-free design, check. And natural materials, seen here in the raw brick wall that brings in colour and texture, the blonde timber ceiling and door, and the hint of greenery peeking down from overhead, double check.
