Today’s contemporary bathroom design combines the beauty of nature with modern amenities. Here are six ways you can bring a natural look to your bathroom.
Use natural materials. Choose stained, unpainted wood for shelving, cabinets, and even vanity furniture. Use natural stone and wood for tiling and flooring.
Contrast. Choose color combinations that occur in nature, such as rich browns and pale greens or deep reds and light blues.
Avoid blue whites. Instead of bright, cool blue-whites, choose warm whites with yellow undertones.
Choose warmer lighting. Make your bathroom lighting more natural by choosing fluorescents with warm yellow undertones—avoid blue-tinted lights.
Bring in natural light. Bring nature into your bathroom by installing a skylight or enlarging or adding windows—if you’re planning a big redesign project. If not, install light, airy curtains that allow sunlight through.
Choose natural tiling for shower and bath. Choose stone tiling for your shower, and use clear glass doors instead of curtains or frosted glass.
There are many ways to bring nature into your bathroom. With these ideas, you’ll be able to design a naturally beautiful bathroom.
