Staying Home Has Never Looked So Good
These 7 bathroom revamps will leave you inspired.
“Stay at home!” “Wash your hands!” Sure, we are all doing our best to follow these Covid-19 guidelines, but who says doing so has to be mundane? As we all find ourselves spending more time in our homes and relentlessly pursuing hand hygiene, now is the perfect time to make sure the spaces around you bring you joy—specifically those bathrooms and powder rooms.
Giving your bathroom a fresh look doesn’t necessarily have to be daunting or overwhelming. A fresh coat of paint, some wallcovering, or fixtures can bring new light and energy to your space. Or, if you are feeling extra adventurous during this quarantine, rip everything out and start from scratch. Whatever approach you take, let your mind wander and curate your dream space! Because, trust us, washing your hands in a newly renovated space will feel more like a retreat than a rule.
Add a textured wallcovering

Updating your powder room can be as simple as adding a colored or textural wallcovering to your space. In this family’s powder room, we decided to utilize shiplap and textural grass cloth to provide more dimension and layers. We updated the lighting, selected a transitional mirror, and added a fresh vanity to complete the space.

If you want to give your master bathroom a fresh update on a budget, consider painting your existing cabinets. Updated knobs, new tile, new lighting, and a fresh coat of paint can truly transform a space. Here we balanced out a unique patterned floor tile with simplistic oversized beveled subway tile to keep a classic look.

Combine styles

Combining different styles into one space can always make a big impact. In this bathroom we balanced out rustic textures like the reclaimed wood on the ceiling with bright and fresh white shiplap on the walls. Both of these were combined with transitional elements like the smooth travertine flooring, the sleek cabinetry, and the glitzy chandelier.

Sink: Kohler Vox Vessel

Want a powder room to impress your guests? Combining different textures and materials can do just that. In this powder room we contrasted the bright white shiplap with a natural live-edge countertop. Fun fact: the wood countertop was actually salvaged from a tree that was cut down on the property, making it a fun talking point.

If the layout and size of your bathroom works well, save the headache and your budget and just give it an overhaul. In this space the plumbing locations and walls were left as-is. Replacing all of the finishes, vanities, lighting, and wallcovering fully updated the space. Squaring off the rounded deck mount tub was a way to modernize it without fully ripping it out.

Mirrors: Seura Mirrors

Sometimes a powder room design can be as simple as adding floor-to-ceiling tile on the vanity wall and pairing it with a patterned floor. Floating vanities are always a great way to make a bathroom feel more current.

Sometimes the best solution for a master bathroom renovation is to rip everything out and start new. This is exactly what was done in this master bathroom. The deck-mounted tub was replaced with an artistic freestanding tub and all finishes, lighting, vanities, and plumbing were replaced. A multitude of textures and materials were incorporated into the space, all while keeping a bright, fresh, and neutral feel. A mixture of metals was used for an added pop, and large format marble look tile was used on the floor to balance everything out.

Sconce: Arteriors
Mirrors: Seura Mirrors
Countertop: Bedrosians Sequel Quartz Statuario Quartz
Floor Tile: Fiandre Premium White Honed
Shower Walls: Fiandre Premium White Polished
