Having beautiful hardware, a stunning layout, and a gorgeous color scheme are great things, but what makes a bathroom genuinely exceptional is the personality and décor. If you’re trying to cultivate the ultimate home interior experience for your guests and loved ones, then you have created a welcoming atmosphere with a creative theme and a hint of character. Stop thinking about your bathroom as a purely functional space and start dreaming of the perfect bubble bath or the ultimate selfie lighting. It’s time to turn your practical powder room into a relaxing spa. But before you breakout the measuring tape, let’s take a look at all of the exciting options that are available for your dream bathroom.

Dramatically Elegant

Nothing says bold like black and gold. Many homeowners are hesitant to include black in their color scheme. Likewise, gold is a hardware finish that people often avoid because of its overly pronounced appearance. Too many bold elements can absolutely overwhelm a color scheme but when used appropriately, these powerful shades can yield incredible results. If you’re feeling bold, then be sure to include one or both of these colors in your final design. Opt for a matte gold faucet for your bathroom sink and pair and a sleek matte black bathroom sink with VIGO’s Matte Shell™ vessel sink set collection. 

Monochromatic Tile

Less is always more and choosing a simple color palette is a great way to wow your guests and loved ones. Incorporating similarly muted tile and flooring is the perfect pairing for your monochromatic color scheme. Don’t go crazy trying to mix and match swatches, choose something simple and find décor details that accentuate your design without taking away from its existing beauty.

Adding some Greenery

Nothing brings interior design to life like some real-life greenery and nothing screams modern millennial like leafy greens. House plants have reemerged as a decorating trend and there’s never been a better time than now to plant some new roots. If you want to incorporate plants in your design but you’re worried about their longevity, then succulents are an excellent solution. Plants add a natural element to any space and help purify the air in your home. Fake plants are also available if you don’t want to water — just remember to dust.

Etagere for storage

Old bathroom cabinets, minimal shelves, and quirky cubby holes are all great solutions for adding some character to your bathroom. Store your bath towels on the more accessible shelves and reserve the top shelf for a select piece of décor that accents your overall theme. A single ornament or decoration can tie together a whole bath design, so don’t be afraid to experiment with different centerpieces. 

Get Nautical

Life is a beach, why can’t your bathroom be? Transform your space with a nautical theme and color palette. Using navy blue and white is always a stunning combo. Simply add a few mariner-centric adornments and turn your master bath into the captain’s quarters. Decorative sailing knots and antique barometers are a perfect addition if you’re trying to capture some of that aquatic spirit.

We're getting serious nautical vibes from this gorgeous ensemble. The all-white wall paired with the slotted paneling and the wood grain countertop makes it a truly stunning combo.

More Minimalism

Modern designs and minimalist vessels and tubs are more popular than ever. If you’re looking to create a sleek streamlined look, then be sure to incorporate a statement piece that captures the attention and imagination of anyone who sets foot inside of your home. A massive his & her vessel or a walk-in frameless shower enclosure could be all your design needs to achieve an ultra-modern aesthetic. Single-hole bathroom faucets and vessel sinks instantly deliver a modern look to bathroom vanities.

Take your interiors to a bold new level by using a modern approach with classic textures and timeless materials. Pure and simple geometry, the VIGO Titus Wall Mount Bathroom Faucet with a matching pop-up drain is traditionally-designed for the modern homeowner. VIGO offers a variety of modern and classic designs to transform your contemporary design into something captivating and unforgettable.

The options are limitless. Decorating is less about finding the perfect design and more about constantly reevaluating and remodeling, so don’t feel hindered by the endless possibilities. If something doesn’t work in your final design, then change it. And if you’re dying to incorporate something that clashes with the rest of your design, then maybe your bathroom requires a more eclectic collection of décor. Just remember that this is your home, your bathroom, and your design — make it great and make it your own.
