When our clients selected the Cabrits freestanding Victoria +Albert bath we knew we needed position the bath perfectly to show off its architectural lines. The wet area was created with a nib wall to hold a glass of wine and candles whilst having a soak in the bath. The white of the Cabrits bath popped against the black but is softened by the use of a floral wall tile laid above the nib wall. Installing a skylight to throw a shaft of light down onto the bath enables the bath to steal the show at certain times of the day whilst also spreading light into the walk-in shower area. The spacious walk-in shower recess has the luxury of a flush ceiling Brodware shower head that our clients report gives the best showering experience. A handheld shower head on a rail was installed as a second showering option. The special finishes of the Brodware tapware sparkle against the dark and moody black wall tiles. This bathroom is full of luxury items including under floor heating, vertical heated towel rails, an in-wall toilet cistern with a tile push plate, a beautiful Victoria + Albert wash stand and a round mirrored cabinet for eye level storage.

Zwei Naturmaterialien - ein Bad! Zierbelkiefer und Schiefer sagen HALLO!

Axel Käshammer - Werkstatt für Möbel + Innenausbau

Zwei echte Naturmaterialien = ein Bad! Zirbelkiefer und Schiefer sagen HALLO! Ein Bad bestehend aus lediglich zwei Materialien, dies wurde hier in einem neuen Raumkonzept konsequent umgesetzt. Überall wo ihr Auge hinblickt sehen sie diese zwei Materialien. KONSEQUENT! Es beginnt mit der Tür in das WC in Zirbelkiefer, der Boden in Schiefer, die Decke in Zirbelkiefer mit umlaufender LED-Beleuchtung, die Wände in Kombination Zirbelkiefer und Schiefer, das Fenster und die schräge Nebentüre in Zirbelkiefer, der Waschtisch in Zirbelkiefer mit flächiger Schiebetüre übergehend in ein Korpus in Korpus verschachtelter Handtuchschrank in Zirbelkiefer, der Spiegelschrank in Zirbelkiefer. Die Rückseite der Waschtischwand ebenfalls Schiefer mit flächigem Wandspiegel mit Zirbelkiefer-Ablage und integrierter Bildhängeschiene. Ein besonderer EYE-Catcher ist das Naturwaschbecken aus einem echten Flussstein! Überall tatsächlich pure Natur, so richtig zum Wohlfühlen und entspannen – dafür sorgt auch schon allein der natürliche Geruch der naturbelassenen Zirbelkiefer / Zirbenholz. Sie öffnen die Badezimmertüre und tauchen in IHRE eigene WOHLFÜHL-OASE ein…

Contemporary Master Bath

Schanstra Design Group

A contemporary master bath with crisp, clean lines, it was designed with a minimalistic approach. Walnut floating cabinets and matching light bridge add warmth to the black and white color scheme. Windows above the light bridge bring in natural lighting. The shower glass and frosted glass for the water closet flank the tub which sits in front of a three-dimensional tile feature. Barn style sliding glass doors allow access on either ends of the bathroom.

Bathroom Design Ideas with a Curbless Shower and Black Tile

If you’re looking for bathroom ideas, look no further than Houzz. Our image gallery brings you a large range of photos with inspiration for your viewing pleasure, and not only that - you can also save your ideas in ideabooks and find the professional that has done the job. When planning your bathroom design or update, start by collecting images of designs you like and take it from there. Whether you are designing your bathroom from scratch, redesigning, updating or simply decorating, you’ll be sure to find ideas for every possible scenario. And once you're ready, you can find the architect and/or builder to get the job done. But let’s start with the bathroom design basics.

How to Plan Your Bathroom Design

A good bathroom design brings together beauty and functionality. It reflects your personality in its style, colours, fittings and fixtures, but serves your needs to a tee both when you’re getting ready for work in the morning and when you want to wind down in your bathtub after a long day.

1 Collect Bathroom Ideas to Decide on Your Layout

Firstly, consider your space. Is it rectangular or are you working with a long, narrow room? This will determine how many wet walls you can accommodate, and if a bathtub can fit. For example, in a narrow room a freestanding bathtub may not work, and a one-wall layout that lines up shower, toilet and vanity on the same wall will make sense in most cases. (It’s also the most budget-friendly option in terms of plumbing). Maybe separate rooms for toilet and shower make sense? Maybe you want to work with a window above a bathtub or in the shower. You may live in an old house where you can keep some of the original character of the home, or you may be working with a small apartment space. All these considerations are vital in deciding on which layout will work best for you. Have a look at some popular ideas to get started.

2 Consider How You Use Your Bathroom

Once you’ve gathered some inspiration, have a think about who is using the room, and how they will be using it. A single guy needs a lot less storage than a teenage girl, and a family bathroom may need to consider elderly family members. Making your bathroom wheelchair accessible could save you thousands down the line. You may also want to accommodate a washer and dryer in the bathroom, since it’s where clothes are taken off frequently. Also consider safety and cleaning. Ensure no-one will slip and hurt themselves, and consider that many little tiles will make for many little nooks for grime to accumulate, whereas big surfaces like a sink that is integrated with the vanity counter, or a big mirror will make wiping down the surface much easier than having sinks sitting on top or an intricately designed mirror.

3 Your Style Determines The Colours and Fixtures You Choose

When looking at bathroom photos on Houzz, you’ll probably lean towards a certain style pretty soon. Are you into rustic charm, modern beach house style or a mix of styles? This will determine if you opt for whites, greys and blues or if you go for dark cabinets, black floor tiles or bronze fixtures. Specifically, you want to consider:

Tiling

Are you going to tile floors and walls? There’s so many possibilities, from your choice of tile to how they are laid. If you’re budget conscious, you may want to consider a wallpaper or paint for certain areas. A simple grey tile can make room for other elements to shine, while mosaics or a subway tile can make a great feature wall.

Lighting

Lighting doesn’t only look pretty, but can impact your bathroom experience significantly. The mirror is a special area you want to light well, so that you don’t miss any hair when shaving or can apply that perfect line to your eye.

Furniture & Fixtures

Pay attention to how colours of cabinets and floor can impact a room. You may want to consider a wooden floor for something different and pair it with simple white vanity and cabinets, or you may want to go for the steampunk look with bronze tubes and black walls. Consider what type of shower, bathtub (if any), toilet, sink and vanity you want. Maybe you have space for a generous spa with walk-in shower, or maybe you want a freestanding bath to be the feature of the room.
