Bathroom Style Tips for Remodeling Inspiration

Written by J. Bryant Boyd | Dec. 15, 2020

The bathroom is one of the most important rooms in the house. That’s why it’s no surprise that most bathrooms are more utilitarian than stylish and comfortable. But that doesn’t have to be the case in your bathroom. When you’re talking to custom home builders about redesigning your bathroom, you have the freedom to choose the style that suits your personality and needs. 

Here are some great design options for your bathroom remodeling:

Farmhouse

Light on accessories, the farmhouse bathroom style is loved for its simple look. The materials, however, are typically well thought out. You can use shiplap and reclaimed wood for more personality, but you can also repurpose old furniture, install a freestanding tub, and vintage mirrors and lighting styles.

Contemporary

The modern bathroom style is clean, typically devoid of moldings and other adornments that don’t serve a real purpose. Clutter is absent, but sleek materials and simple but effective lighting are important. Technology has a place in this bathroom style, and so do the latest materials.

Eclectic

This is your style if you’re into mixing and matching different styles, even from different eras. Colors, patterns, and accessories are all based on your personality, so you can experiment with different pieces as long as they hold some meaning to you. Talk to design build firms about combining the things you love the most in this style.

Beach

Love the ocean? Then the beach style bathroom is for you. It’s calm and relaxing while also offering an uplifting and inspired vibe. It’s as if you’re going on a beach holiday each time you enter the bathroom. Focus on the colors of the beach for inspiration (sand, water, sky). Curb your enthusiasm a little, though, so your beach style bathroom remains tasteful.

Asian

Eastern traditions combine to provide a spa-like feel with the Asian style bathroom. Soft lights, plenty of wood and a nice soaking tub should set the tone for your relaxing new bathroom.

Traditional

Instead of thinking “old” or “outdated”, think of the traditional style as a salute to all things classic, from the style to the materials. If you love details and character, this is the style for you. Go with some unique tilework and relaxing colors. Materials like marble exude elegance, and they’re right at home in this kind of bathroom.

Industrial

Neither modern nor old-fashioned, the industrial style focuses on the rawness of materials like concrete, steel, and brick, among others. If you love the big city styles of lofts and condos built by converting industrial buildings into residential units, then the unique flavor of the industrial style is your best choice.
