1. Dark Neutrals
Dark Neutral Features for a Modern Bathroom Design
Various textures combine in this modern bathroom design to form a balanced, sophisticated look. Interesting lighting effects illuminate dark neutral features like the deep brown accent wall and a dark wood shelving unit. Incorporating a natural element, such as a potted plant, can help keep your modern design scheme fresh and lively.
Which of these modern bathrooms inspired you the most? Do you prefer stone elements or tiles? Are you a floating shelves and cabinets fan, or are you interested in a more traditional look?
Whatever your taste, we’d love to help you achieve the look. Comment below to let us know which of these examples piqued your interest.
2. Traditional in Greyscale
Greyscale for a Traditional Bathroom Design
Simple, elegant, and inviting; greyscale has been in season for some time and this room shows why.
The beautiful marble on the countertop and shower walls blend beautifully with the black tiled floor. Molding on the ceiling, floor, windows, and doorways presents an outline that frames the room. Metallic fixtures and simple white or gray towels are easy picks, and they work perfectly for this style while not detracting from the original design.
3. Wood Beams
Weathered Wood Ceiling Beams in the Bathroom
If you have much to store in your bathroom, you might want to consider installing a full set of cabinets.
Here, a tall and beautiful set of cabinets sits between two sinks. Glass paneling allows its contents to be on full display (but, of course, you could choose to hide your wares). Dark wood floors contrast with old, weathered wood ceiling beams.
Marrying old and new elements is a great way to tip your hat to the past without getting stuck.
4. Contemporary Cement Bathroom
Gray Industrial Bathroom Design
Not everyone loves the bright white bathrooms of modern minimalists. Sometimes, it’s okay to embrace your dark side. That’s exactly what this gray industrial bathroom design does.
With both concrete and grey brick walls, this bathroom stays in a dark, limited color palette. By avoiding color variety, we can focus on some hand-selected design elements. For instance, this sprawling exposed light fixture is a unique way to create overhead lighting.
5. Dual Sinks
Utilize the space wisely in your bathroom with two sets of sinks, whether for him and her or overnight guests. Muted blue hues and off-white fixtures can bring a bathroom to life and simulate the atmosphere of the oceanside or a peaceful lagoon.
Use natural scents in floral arrangements to avoid any unpleasantries. Dual lamps will help illuminate the room and avoid fighting for sunlight while letting you enjoy your beautiful new room.
6. Dark Wood Cabinetry
Dark Wood Cabinets for a Traditional Bathroom Design
Want to bring attention to your bathroom? Try dark wood cabinets to contrast with a more traditional design. Mahogany, walnut, and cocobolo woods can bring a rustic pop to bathrooms that prefer white or off-white tones and arrangements.
Metallic fixtures like faucets, mirrors, and lamps can be complementary accessories, keeping with the room's traditional theme while enhancing the rustic elements.
7. Wide Open Spaces
Wide Open Modern Industrial Bathroom Design
If you’re blessed with a lot of space, the options for your bathroom design are endless. But that also means you can go overboard.
Focusing on the industrial elements is a great way to ensure simplicity and style. This large, spanning bathroom highlights concrete walls and floors by avoiding too much clutter. Adding some plants to your bathroom is a surefire way to make it look lively.
8. Midcentury Design for a Small Bathroom
Lighten up your apartment or condo with a touch of gold. We can’t all have large sweeping bathrooms, but a little brightness in the right place can make your privy stand out in the smallest spaces. Pair with dark wood cabinets, marble flooring, and countertops to sell the effect to your future guests.
9. Deep Teal
Looking for a darker palette to add a real “pop” to your design? Try a deep teal! This color can bring the whole room together.
The dark wood cabinets blend beautifully, and large potted plants and white accents can ease even the most anxious guests. But don’t go too far. Just coat the walls and let the accents do the rest.
10. Mid Century Meets Scandinavian
Midcentury Scandinavian Bathroom
Enjoy simplicity with this mid-century Scandinavian bathroom set. No need for fixtures here! Each natural wood-grained cabinet is a reach and pull design, no knobs necessary.
The natural grain works great with many color palettes, whether you choose to use more earthy tones or lean into the Scandinavian influence with an all-white backdrop. Don’t forget to decorate with some green from your garden. You’ll be transferred straight to the Netherlands every time you step inside.
11. Blue Tile Wonderland
Vincent van Gogh Inspired Blue Tile Bathroom
If you’re looking for a more artistic approach, try this van Gogh-inspired blue tile bathroom, which will make you see a starry night in every corner.
Decorative accents bring this design to life and frame the blue tile marvelously. The gold fixtures sprouting from the white marble, the light wood grain with the golden handles, and the light marble flooring make this bathroom a work of art.
Perhaps the contrasting blue wall design towards the back is the most daring and rewarding. Experimentation is key!
12. Contemporary meets Midcentury
Midcentury Cabinets in Contemporary Bathroom Design
Mid-century designs can work best with a splash of contemporary. Floating cabinetry is a staple of contemporary homes, but the cabinet’s style is mid-century.
What we love here is the mix of the dark wood floor mixed with the wood paneling of the vanity and the faux wood bathtub. The brown colors work well with the lighter accents on the carpet, bringing out the lighter cream wall. Perhaps we can’t all afford a beachfront window, but we can all afford to elevate our designs!
13. Hexagon Tiles
Hexagon tiling seems to be making a big splash in the design world. This beautiful greyscale tiling with brown border rings makes the dark wood cabinets, mirror frames, and light fixtures warm us like a fire-lit hearth.
Add gold faucets, knobs, and handles to bring the dark wood to life. This design works extremely well in smaller households but can exceed in larger condos and apartments.
14. Cool Hues
Cool Hues for a Cool Bathroom Design
Colors are a wonderful way to control how a room feels and how your guests feel. Cooler hues, such as a muted blue like the one above or a darker green, tend to be more calming.
Try gray tiling, marble countertops, and steel faucets to make those cooler colors more dominant. Manipulate your environment and decide how you want to feel!
15. Bold Bathroom Floor Tiles
Bring your floor to life with eclectic designs and bold choices. Choose something out of the ordinary and try to design around it, going against the norm.
This dark wood-grained vanity might not go well in your typical mid-century bathroom, but it fits like a glove with something so striking as the floor. Let the flooring stand out. Feel free to match the fixtures in the vanity, but let the floor bask in its boldness.
16. Floating Bathroom Vanity
Floating Vanity in the Bathroom
Install a floating vanity to instill a sense of space and openness. With a tight marble casing, a floating vanity can also frame the room better than your typical design. When choosing a wood, contrast it with an opposing marble pallet to make the casing stand out. No more worrying about stubbing a toe or flooding.
17. Pink and Marble
Pink and Marble Bathroom Design
Pink and marble go together like cookies and cream. Each color complements the other while standing out on its own. A good thing to remember with marble and pink is that marble is your primary color, while pink is better at highlighting certain areas.
Choose pink for certain areas of the vanity or part of the flooring. Marble is best for wall space and shower tiling. Add bits of muted gold or gray to smaller accessories, and you’ve created one attractive room.
Which of these Mid-century bathroom designs inspired you the most? Whether you love a full-on retro feel or a more contemporary approach, there are plenty of ways to incorporate mid-century design into your bathroom. We’d love to help you get started on your next design project.
18. Gold Accents
Gold Accents in Bathroom Design Elements
Gold is a fantastic color if used sparingly. Add gold to highlight or accent your bathroom by adding it to mirrors, lights, or cabinet fixtures. Best used in lighter or muted colors, gold can help draw attention to a charming portrait, flowers in a vase, or practically anything you want your guests to see.
19. Une Armoire dans la Salle de Bain
Here’s something that can make everyone’s life a little easier. Having a wardrobe in your bathroom might not be plausible for some households, but with those with the extra space, not only will it eliminate an extra step in the morning, it can eliminate negative space while bringing color and texture.
Utilizing our dark wood cabinetry and accents, we create a theme that draws the eye while not seeming busy or overdone.
20. Seated Vanity
Vain is in the name for a reason. Why should we strain to indulge ourselves in comfort when we can indulge ourselves? This seated vanity is perfect for those who spend long hours in front of the mirror, whether for makeup or detailed grooming.
The seat can be easily pushed under the vanity when not in use, saving space for a long, luxurious bath. Stick to a complementary palette when designing for a more distinguished look.
21. Copper Bath
Copper Bath as Design Starting Point
Are you tired of the same boring baths in your home design? Try a copper bath as a design starting point. The alluring glow of copper and other earth tones, whether in wall tiles or marble countertops, can bring a room together with contrasting cabinets and flooring.
Choose a cream base for the countertops and perhaps a light-marbled floor, and you have a bathroom sure to draw a few eyes.
22. Grecian Bath
Splash of Mediterranean Design with Grecian Bath
Bring a splash of the Mediterranean to your bathroom with clean marble floor tiles and turquoise hues. This beautiful bathtub and cabinet set have matching surface impressions, with stainless steel faucets, knobs, and handhelds. Add accents in complementary colors and floral arrangements, and your guests will have the lasting feeling of a day at the beach.
23. Ornate Mirrors
Ornate Mirrors in the Bathroom
If you want to make your guests feel like royalty, ornate mirrors and patterned tiles might be for you. Take a step back in time and decorate as kings would, adding elegance to your bathroom with stainless steel accents and pointed bulbs. If the extra mile is for you, we won’t hold you back from adding the candelabras and chandelier you see here!
24. Floating Shelves
Floating Shelves For a Contemporary Bathroom
Floating shelves are a popular contemporary convention. Creating one floating shelf with the same concrete, the walls are made of helps tie this room together. Additionally, these worn-down window panels add to the industrial look.
But not everything is as weathered and industrial in this bathroom. A sleek, modern bathtub sits atop newly tiled floors. And that’s what’s beautiful about this room — it embraces both the old and the new.
25. Exposed Pipes
Gone are the days when exposed pipes were bad. Now, we’re in an era of decorative pipes. This bathroom really uses color and light to the fullest.
With a solid mix of edison bulbs and some subtle LED backlighting, this majority black industrial bathroom avoids being too dark. Admittedly, this bathroom likely belongs to someone with a flare for the dramatic.
26. Statement Mirror
Statement Mirror for an Industrial Bathroom
This industrial bathroom has that oh-so-coveted exposed brick. Also notable is this massive bathroom mirror framed by exposed pipes. This sink cabinet set borrows some design principles from the mid-century modern style, proving you can really mix industrial elements with anything and pull it off.
27. Industrial Geometry
Geometric Industrial Bathroom Design
The geometric design never goes out of style. This industrial bathroom design uses lines and shapes to create movement. Two round mirrors, displayed side by side, feel playful. Round-hanging Edison bulb pendant lights brighten up the room. Open metal shelving provides ample storage under twin sinks.
Which of these industrial bathroom designs inspired you the most? Leave a comment below. We’d love to help you get started on your next design project.
28. Contemporary Pink
Trendy Shade of Pink in the Bathroom
The term “millennial pink” popped up a few years ago to describe a trendy shade of light pink. This shade of pink transcends the frilly, delicate designs of the past.
When used in combination with other contemporary shades and materials, pink can look sleek and androgynous. Whether or not you’re sold on pink, this design is a great example of using a two-tone color palette in contemporary bathrooms.
29. Bold Red
Here’s another example of a two-tone contemporary color palette with a much different impact. If you’re designing a contemporary bathroom for a restaurant, using bold colors like red can instill a sense of energy in your clientele. The same concept can be applied to your home’s contemporary bathroom if you need a little boost from your bathroom in the morning.
30. Elevated Bath
For those who have spent time in cramped city condos, a large bathtub or shower can feel like the height of luxury. This bathtub, sitting on a raised platform, is quite literally at the height of luxury.
Stone and wood textures contrast beautifully in this contemporary bathroom example, but not much else is happening here. This proves you can do a lot with a little.
31. Contemporary Rainforest Bathroom
If you love organic and industrial features, this contemporary bathroom might be a great source of inspiration. Filling your bathroom with tropical topiaries will bring some color to a room that may otherwise feel dull and neutral.
Here, we have an example of those oh-so-contemporary hidden cabinets. This bathroom uses large, reflective black surfaces to hide cabinetry. This illusion allows you to make room for all the odds and ends that don’t match your chic, contemporary aesthetic tastes.
Which of these contemporary bathroom designs inspired you the most? Do you love the hidden cabinets, or are you a bigger fan of the floating sink look? Let us know in the comments. We’d love to help you create the contemporary bathroom of your dreams.
32. Traditional with an Eclectic Twist
Traditional Yet Eclectic Bathroom Design
Some say eclectic, I say exciting. If you want to stand out, try something out of the ordinary. These beautiful black-and-white marbled floor tiles, dark wood mirrored cabinets, and print ottoman might not be for some, but together in a room with low light and an industrial twist, they will have your guests talking. A standing basin is a great choice for a room like this, and you can make sure that vintage ottoman stays dry.
33. Pops of Pink
A Little Splash of Pink in the Bathroom
Finding the right accents for any room can be crucial for any home designer, but sometimes smaller is bigger. Brighten your bathroom with a small splash of pink or red, whether it be flowers next to your vanity or a carpet beside your bath.
A little color can go a long way, especially in a room with selected colors from a lighter palette. Start small, and see for yourself!
34. Warm Cream Palette
Warm Cream Color Palette in Bathroom Design
Warm cream palettes are a perfect place to start if you have an aversion to the typical off-white nature of more traditional bathroom designs. With the right marble, lighting fixtures, and wooden decor, warm cream can provide a striking yet inviting environment with little help. Try gold accents instead of stainless steel, and provide plenty of natural light.
35. Traditional meets Modern
Incorporating Modern Design Elements into the Traditional Bathroom Design
If you don’t want a traditional design, mesh your bathroom with something more modern. Keep the designs you like, such as the dark wood cabinets, the tiled marble flooring, and the off-white standing basin, and elevate your space with ornate chandeliers and a skylight to produce more natural lighting.
Traditional bathrooms are one of the easiest styles to experiment with and the perfect style to find the true you.
36. Cozy Farmhouse Bath
While farmhouse design often uses repurposed materials, that doesn’t mean you have to compromise on quality. The two traditional-style sinks/vanities in this bathroom clearly show that a farmhouse bathroom can include some more ornate elements.
A soft, warm color palette unites this room, and a long runner rug gives it a cozy vibe. Nothing is better than a warm bath in a clawfoot tub after a long day of working on the farm (or staring at spreadsheets).
37. Farmhouse Sinks
Environmentally-Friendly Farmhouse Sink
Upcycling materials is a great way to achieve a high-quality farmhouse bathroom while being environmentally friendly. This sink looks to be crafted with wood palettes and stone.
Old wood ceiling beams highlight the home's history, while white shower tiles add a sense of modernity. Of course, no modern home is complete without expensive Aesop hand soap.
38. Rustic Wood
Here, we have another example of using rustic materials to create beautiful bathroom furniture. The reclaimed wood cabinets in this farmhouse-inspired bathroom look as if they were crafted with care in colonial times.
Also, matching the wood stain or paint color on various elements will help you tie your bathroom design together. This gorgeous dark wood set of cabinets pairs nicely with the dark brown-framed mirror.
39. Light Wood
You may notice a pattern with the bathroom cabinets and sinks. Farmhouse bathrooms often use vintage or antique-looking furniture. Here, both the cabinets and the decorative ladder have a rustic look.
But you don’t necessarily have to go flea market shopping to achieve this look. You can often find new furniture that looks worn or paint furniture to create a weathered effect. Also notable in this farmhouse bathroom is the patterned bathroom tile. A simple geometric tile pattern contrasts nicely with the rest of the bathroom’s solid-colored elements.
40. Dual Sink Farmhouse Bathroom
Modern Farmhouse Style with Dual Sink
Not all farmhouse designs look rustic. Here’s an example of a modern farmhouse bathroom that embraces farmhouse design's materials and color palettes. This dual-sink vanity has plenty of cabinet and drawer storage space.
Overhead industrial lighting enhances the room’s natural brightness, as do the three wood-framed mirrors. And don’t forget about the details. Bathroom textiles can seem an afterthought, but these neutral-patterned towels are a deliberate and beautiful choice.
41. Grayscale Chic
A ladder to nowhere? Why not! Farmhouse designs often include decorative ladders to allude to rustic roots while adding more hanging space for bathroom textiles.
This bathroom uses black cabinetry under the sink, which isn’t often used in a farmhouse design. However, this bold choice gives the room an edge when paired with softer elements.
42. Subway Tile Shower
Subway Tile for a Modern Bathroom Design
Subway tile is truly all the rage in modern design. It’s made its way across many styles, from Scandinavian to modern to farmhouse. This bathroom incorporates a couple of other bathroom tiles as well.
Tiny square black tiles accent the shower floor, and larger gray square floor tiles line the rest of the bathroom. Using tiles of varying sizes and shades can give your farmhouse bathroom an exciting, fresh vibe.
43. Flowers Fresh from the Farm
With a charming bathroom, why wouldn’t you buy flowers for it? This modern farmhouse bathroom is a gorgeous example of using new materials to create an antique look. Look closely at the wood paneling on the walls and ceilings.
A muted warm grey and medium wood stain might suggest some age, but they look newly installed up close. You can add a bit of color to your farmhouse with a floor rug, vintage or new.
44. Rustic Blue Bathroom Cabinets
Rustic Blue Cabinets in the Bathroom
We tend to associate warm neutrals with the farmhouse style, but using blue is a great choice. This set of bathroom cabinets and drawers is accented with lovely brass handles. The centerpiece of this room, however, is this round mirror seemingly decorated with stalks of wheat.
Whether your taste is DIY or more traditional, incorporating light colors and textures is a great way to liven up your farmhouse bathroom design.
45. Earth Tones
Earth Tone Palette Bathroom Design
Leaning into a neutral, earth-tone palette can help create a cozy farmhouse-inspired bathroom. In this example, various shades of warm brown provide an elegant yet approachable look.
A round mirror over the sink helps draw in and bounce more light around the room. This is a great example of prioritizing aesthetic value and storage space equally by incorporating large, brown cabinetry.
46. Open Storage
You can always bring the farm into your bathroom by decorating with farm animals. Did you spot the duck in the bottom left-hand corner of this image? Other less literal farmhouse elements include a hanging lantern over the bathtub, workbenches repurposed as storage, and wood paneling. This gingham-patterned rug also feels very picnic-like in the prairie.
Which of these farmhouse bathroom images inspired you the most? Let us know in the comments. We’d love to help you transform your bathroom into the cozy farmhouse nook of your dreams.
47. Upcycling Industrial
Upcycled Industrial Bathroom Design
If a tree falls in a forest and no one hears it, how will we know to upcycle its wood? If these concrete walls weren’t enough to convince you of this bathroom’s industrial status, how about these thick metal chains holding up the tree slab-turned sink? Here’s all the proof you need to convince you that you can make something beautiful from industrial elements others would try to hide.
48. Clean Lines
Scandinavian Bathroom Design With White Tiles on Floors and Walls
This Scandinavian bathroom has some odd architecture. Furniture for uniquely shaped rooms can be hard to find. The white cabinets under the basin sink are likely custom-built.
This Scandinavian bathroom takes advantage of its natural light source by avoiding bathroom curtains and using white tiles on the floor and walls.
49. Floating Sink
Floating Twin Sinks for a Scandinavian Bathroom Design
Floating shelves are all the rage. Even better: twin sinks, so you don’t have to share with your spouse.
This Scandinavian explores a few different textures and tones without going overboard. It’s all about balance and simplicity. You can get away with some bold textures if you keep them to a minimum.
50. All White Everything
All-White Color Palette for a Modern Bathroom Design
Your bathroom should be a top priority when tidying the house. Cleanliness is key, so why not apply that principle to design? This bathroom looks modern and bright with simple, clean lines and a nearly all-white color palette.
51. Concrete Contemporary
Concrete Walls for an Industrial Contemporary Bathroom Design
Concrete walls can be contemporary and luxurious with the right accents. This bathroom uses creeping vines in the back left to add an organic element to this otherwise quite contemporary and industrial bathroom. A thin pane of glass barely separates the shower from the rest of the bathroom, letting everything flow together.
When designing a contemporary bathroom, it’s important to understand how the various elements will flow together or contrast with purpose.
52. Simple and Sophisticated
Clever Contemporary Bathroom Design
Marble and stone-textured tiles are classic bathroom materials. This bathroom puts a contemporary spin on them. This contemporary bathroom is also a great example of using a small space wisely. The bathtub slides under a floating sink shelf. Space in between those elements leaves a bit of room for towel storage. It’s all about fitting things together in clever ways.
53. Blue Geometry
Blue Geometric Wall Designs for a Contemporary Bathroom
This contemporary bathroom proudly features a decorative paneled wall with a door that blends in perfectly. You’ll see a lot of that in contemporary designs.
Often, contemporary bathroom designs cleverly hide cabinets or doors by building a facade that looks like a wall. This soft blue, beige, and white palette is also notable here.
54. Backlighting
LED-Backlit Mirror for Contemporary Bathroom Design
You may have noticed that several contemporary bathrooms use LED lighting below or behind fixtures. This bathroom uses an LED-backlit mirror to create a halo effect. White walls contrast nicely with a dark wood cabinet underneath the sink basin.
55. Sauna Vibes
Sauna Vibe for a Contemporary Bathroom Design
Bring your favorite spa back home with simple textural choices, like warm wood wall paneling reminiscent of a sauna. This contemporary bathroom opts to use a deep, circular bathtub. Unique choices like this will set your contemporary bathroom design apart from the crowd.
56. Black and Blue
Blue LED Backlighting for a Contemporary Bathroom
We’ve seen LED backlighting used in several of these contemporary bathrooms. This one breaks the mold by choosing a blue hue.
Adding a bold pop of color doesn’t always have to come in the form of paint. And wouldn’t we all be so lucky to have such sweeping city views?
57. Monochromatic
Concrete doesn’t always scream “luxury,” but even the simplest and most industrial textures can feel rich when constructed with care. This bathroom uses stone and concrete to create a unified look. Simple twin sinks sit below large bathroom mirrors, which help bounce light around the room.
58. Natural Stone Tub
You may notice some similarities between this image and the last. That’s because the same company makes the bathtubs. These unique contemporary bathtubs are a standout feature that will wow your guests.
This example also shows a clever trend in contemporary designs. In the shower, a carved-out space on the wall allows for some toiletry storage. Form and function are key.
59. Marbled
Marble Walls for a Contemporary Bathroom Design
This contemporary bathroom design definitely borrows from traditional bathrooms. Light wood cabinets have the slightest bit of ornamentation, and these marble walls definitely feel like they could be plucked from the interior of a suburban mansion.
Contemporary elements launch this bathroom into the present. Lighting underneath the bathroom cabinets feels distinctly current and contemporary. It’s a basic fix, but it changes the whole vibe of the room.
60. Exposed Brick
Exposed Brick Walls for Bathroom Design
Exposed bricks weren’t considered a selling point in a home. Within the past decade, however, they have become something that can get a home listing noticed by potential buyers. Brick walls are a great way to showcase your home’s natural character.
Pairing them with contrasting textures, like these light hardwood floors, is a nice way to create variety. A solid, dark brown cabinet with industrial metal drawer handles is a great way to bring some storage into a bathroom on the smaller side.
61. An Array of Textures
An Array of Textures for Industrial Bathroom Design
Textures are everything when it comes to industrial bathroom design. There are so many industrial textures, so why not choose them all? That’s what this bathroom did, and it works.
White subway tiles sit behind the wood-based sink with metal drawer handles. The sink’s countertop looks made of a stone or concrete texture. Large rectangular floor tiles sit underneath a painted medium grey accent wall.
And with the addition of several ornamental elements and light fixtures, the list of textures could go on and on. The moral of this example is that more is more.
62. Bold Colored Walls
Industrial Bathroom Incorporating Bold Colors
Industrial bathrooms often use a neutral or greyscale color palette. This is not out of aesthetic elitism; it is simply because those are the colors of the industrial textures used.
However, this example proves how lovely an industrial bathroom can look with a bold pop of color. Teal contrasts nicely with warm wood accents, and a patterned tile brings even more vibrancy to the room.
63. Dark and Moody Industrial Bathroom
All-Black Industrial Bathroom Design
Going monochromatic doesn’t mean you must go mono-texture with your industrial bathroom design. This all-black industrial bathroom uses tile, metal, and concrete to create this dark and moody look. Everyone looks great in black, and so will your bathroom.
64. Upscale Industrial
Elegant Industrial Bathroom Design
While industrial materials may be cheaper than some luxury ones, you don’t have to compromise on elegance. This bathroom uses gorgeous overhead lights and a raised bathtub platform to create an upscale ambiance. If you want to feel the luxury, you could add a marble backsplash or build custom bathroom cabinets for more storage.
65. Marine Life in the Bathroom
Beach Bathroom Design Incorporating Marine Life
There’s a fine line between kitschy and clever regarding on-the-nose design elements. This beach bathroom tips towards clever with this large, framed octopus painting.
You might look to these if you’re considering a dual sink setup in your bathroom. Each sink has two large drawers underneath, so you and your partner aren’t fighting for storage space. A clever x-shaped storage unit sits between the two sinks, which this bathroom owner uses to store extra towels.
66. Fronds with Benefits
Tropical Plants in the Bathroom
Have you ever wanted your own personal cabana boy to fan you with a palm frond? Well, that may cost extra. But adding tropical plants to your bathroom is a simple way to tip your hat to the island lifestyle.
This bathroom also features a super unique cork wood cube ottoman. Unique pieces like this are rare and worth proudly displaying against a more subtle, neutral backdrop.
67. Earthy Grecian Bathroom
This modern Greek bathroom proves that you don’t need grand, sweeping spaces to incorporate elements of elegant Mediterranean design. Simple touches bring this design together. This color palette is mostly neutral, with earthy brown tones on the mirror and bathroom cabinets and shades of grey on bathroom tiles and countertops.
A cool light green adds a bit of calming contrast to the room. The stone basin sink feels plucked from the ceramics section of a Renaissance museum. All of this can be achieved in a bathroom of any size.
68. Rustic Materials
Mediterranean-Inspired Bathroom Design
Textures can make or break your bathroom. In this Mediterranean-inspired bathroom design, a mix of earthy textures feels warm and cozy.
Light beige bricks adorn the countertop and carry onto the wall. Large textured beige tiles embellish another section of the wall.
While the textures are entirely different, their similar shades allow them to bleed into one another seamlessly. This reclaimed wood-framed bathroom mirror is the clear focal point of the bathroom.
You could use elements from your own backyard or perhaps your travels to the Mediterranean to achieve a similar look in your bathroom.
69. Mediterranean Sea Inspiration
Blue Hues for a Mediterranean Bathroom Design
Bringing blue hues into your Mediterranean bathroom design can allude to the Mediterranean Sea. Use blues and whites and incorporate textured paint looks to bring the Grecian coast to your home.
This small ornate bathroom mirror flanked by brass candelabras adds a bit of glamour to the room. The details are more important than ever because bathrooms are usually smaller than other rooms.
70. Tuscan Style Bath
You may immediately picture ornate Renaissance paintings or detailed carved marble figures when you think of Italian design. That ornamentation is still present in modern Mediterranean interior design.
In this example, an incredibly intricate chandelier hangs above a swooping bathtub. Traditional-style dark wood cabinets are ornamented with metal handles, and the entire warm brown color scheme feels strongly Tuscan in nature.
71. Elegance in Stone
Mediterranean Bathroom Design Highlighting Stone Features
Stone features can look luxurious or humble, depending on the other elements used in the room. In this Mediterranean bathroom example, rustic stone features look humble above the sink.
However, the patterned brickwork behind the clawfoot tub feels more elegant. The warm hues of this Mediterranean-inspired bathroom harken back to traditional Italian palettes.
72. Mediterranean Tiles
It’s easy to get lost in images from luxury resorts on the Amalfi coast, which is exactly where this image was pulled from. Bring the Mediterranean back home with colorful patterned tiles for your floor, walls, or both!
Add ornamental mirrors throughout the room to reflect light and provide decoration. Incorporating colors like gold throughout the details of your trim can also add a luxurious vibe to your Mediterranean-inspired bathroom.
73. Italian Villa Shower
Here, we have another example of tiles used on the floor and wall for decoration. Ornate design elements, like this bathroom’s various hanging light fixtures, can help your bathroom feel like it was plucked straight from Versailles.
This bathroom design embraces the old with an antique dark wood table that displays towels and other items. Incorporating traditional-style cabinetry is a great way to add storage and beauty to your Mediterranean bathroom.
74. Michelangelo’s Marble Bathroom
Michelangelo's Marble Bathroom for a Mediterranean Bathroom Design
If you like a more muted palette, this Mediterranean-inspired bathroom is a great example. Natural lighting beaming through a massive arched window highlights marble floors and wall paneling. Warm beige walls match nicely with a clawfoot tub.
Of course, you can always make your home bathroom feel like a luxurious Italian spa resort by hanging white bathrobes. You deserve it.
75. Bathroom Wallpaper
Lemon-Patterned Bathroom Wallpaper
You’ve heard of bathroom tiles (which this bathroom also has), but have you considered using fun, patterned wallpaper in your beach bathroom?
This super cute lemon-patterned wallpaper wraps around the walls and vibrantly pops against blue shower walls. Some white subway tiles and a simple white sink allow this beach bathroom to highlight its natural light source.
76. Playa del Carmen Bathroom Inspiration
Playa del Carmen Inspired Bathroom Design
This Playa del Carmen bathroom uniquely uses bathroom tile. Instead of the standard right angles of a shower partition wall, this beach bathroom opts for an oval-shaped shower. The outside of the shower wall uses the bathroom’s neutral cream palette, while the inside is lined with small mosaic blue and yellow tiles.
If you want to go bold, you could do something similar with shower tiles and bring the color into your wall paint, floor tiles, or mirror.
77. Nautical Navy Blue
Darker Navy Blue Accent for a Modern Bathroom Design
Blue and white beach bathroom color palettes can often feel retro or cutesy. This bathroom proves that blue and white can be elegant and modern.
This bathroom uses a darker navy blue to accent the sink and the wall behind it. That color is also used as an accent on a decorative vase but is not seen elsewhere within this coastal bathroom design.
Instead, several warm wood elements are highlighted. Floating shelves allow for a bit of storage and some wood storage crates resting below the sink vanity.
78. Marble in the Marina
Marble Accents for a Luxurious Bathroom Look
Okay, so we can’t all afford huge glass paneled windows that lead directly to the ocean. But you might be able to highlight your natural light source better by using materials like those used in this bathroom. This bathroom design maximizes the natural light by choosing a light wood finish for bathroom floors and cabinets.
Additionally, a vast mirror helps bounce natural light into other room areas. Marble accents give this room even more luxury, as if the oceanfront property weren’t enough.
79. Modern Wood Paneling
Modern White Wood Bathroom Panels
You heard it here first: wood paneling isn’t just for your uncle’s 1970s van anymore. That’s right. Wood paneling can look chic and modern with a nice coat of white paint and some vibrant accents.
Blue floor tiles and a bright-colored cushion help this room look vibrant and fun. This dual sink drawer and cabinet setup creates plenty of storage.

86. Mediterranean Blue
Coastal Mediterranean Bathroom Design
Are you torn between a coastal theme or a Mediterranean design scheme for your bathroom? There’s no need to choose when you can meet in the middle and incorporate the best of both worlds. This blue and white color palette definitely feels beachy in nature, but decorative vases and an arched window draw in elements of the Mediterranean design style.
If you’ve traveled to the Mediterranean and have items you’d like to display, creating alcoves like the one pictured above can be a great way to highlight those pieces safely.
The Mediterranean has a lot to offer regarding bathroom design inspiration.
Tuscan design offers warm, earthy palettes and natural textures. With Tuscan inspiration, you can create a beautiful stone-tiled shower.
Spanish design often highlights gorgeous, intricate tiles. You can incorporate Spanish-inspired tiles on your bathroom floor, walls, or both.
