The configuration of a structural wall at one end of the bathroom influenced the interior shape of the walk-in steam shower. The corner chases became home to two recessed shower caddies on either side of a niche where a Botticino marble bench resides. The walls are white, highly polished Thassos marble. For the custom mural, Thassos and Botticino marble chips were fashioned into a mosaic of interlocking eternity rings. The basket weave pattern on the shower floor pays homage to the provenance of the house. The linen closet next to the shower was designed to look like it originally resided with the vanity--compatible in style, but not exactly matching. Like so many heirloom cabinets, it was created to look like a double chest with a marble platform between upper and lower cabinets. The upper cabinet doors have antique glass behind classic curved mullions that are in keeping with the eternity ring theme in the shower. Photographer: Peter Rymwid

Haven Design and Construction

The kids’ bathroom previously featured a 4’ long bathtub that was cramped and impractical. The knee space in front of the existing toilet was also quite tight. So, we turned the bathtub 90 degrees and were able to incorporate a standard 5’ long bathtub and also give the space in front of the toilet more room for knee space. The design team wanted to give the kids bath a fun MCM punch that they would not outgrow, so we designed a colorful accent wall of geometric tile, added a wood and chrome faucet and a blue vanity with chrome and walnut cabinet hardware.

A white 66" freestanding tub takes up less physical and visual space than the previous built-in tub and allowed for an expanded shower. The original layout had the sinks on opposite sides of the room. Joining the sinks in a single vanity over 8' allowed the space for a huge linen closet. Custom wainscoting keeps the traditional feel of the rest of the home

Milano - noto 10 - Sala da Bagno

chromastudio

Il bagno padronale è stato pensato come una vera e propria stanza da bagno, un luogo dove rilassarsi davvero, dove godersi qualche minuto in tranquillità lontani dalle interferenze del mondo esterno. L’intervento è consistito nella ridistribuzione completa dello spazio, rispettando comunque l’architettura originale degli anni ’60, consentendo di valorizzare il progetto autentico senza rinunciare alla modernità. La scelta cromatica ha un ruolo decisivo nella definizione dell’atmosfera: il verde infatti distende e rasserena, favorisce la riflessione e la calma rallentando la frequenza dei battiti cardiaci ed agevolando la respirazione. La carta da parati di London Art, su design di Davide Marotta, porta con sé un’essenza esotica, donando equilibrio all’ambiente. Il layout della sala da bagno è stato aiutato da elementi che ne esaltano l'eleganze dell'insieme, la rubinetteria di @ritmonio con la finitura satinata si uniscono ai sanitari di @ceramichecielo e il lavabo in HPL di @arbi. Donano movimento alla simmetria creata con gli elementi su misura in rovere, le piastrelle di @41zero42. La palette cromatica è stata studiata per garantire il senso di eleganza e sobrietà desiderati dalla committenza conservando comunque inalterata l’identità di Chroma Studio.

Bathroom Design Ideas with Green Walls and Multi-coloured Walls

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.
