Bathroom and Tile Inspiration Bathroom inspiration8 tips for an original bathroom

Decorating a bathroom can be done in many different ways. The right tile floor and wall, matching colours and bathroom elements that match each other play an important role. As there are countless possibilities, we would like to give you some valuable tips to help you decorate the room. These original bathroom ideas are guaranteed to give your bathroom a special look and feel.

1. Create an accent wall

Tiles ensure that your personality is reflected in the bathroom. Do you like decorative tiles, bold colours, tiles with a special shape or unique laying patterns? Then apply them as wall accents. This will bring attention to just one wall. This way, you preserve the peace in the bathroom without the room becoming monotonous.

Think for example of playful hexagon tiles, where the unique design breaks up the straight lines. Tiles with a metallic or rough concrete look lend themselves perfectly to a more striking accent wall. The colour nuances of these tiles have a tough, robust look and give the bathroom a special appearance. Is a classic style more your thing? Then decorative tiles with a symmetrical design are the ideal solution. Mosaic tiles are also ideal for creating a contrasting effect.

2. Split the space

Bathroom tiles are not only perfect for an accent wall, but also for dividing up the space. This way, you make the bathroom extra cosy and delineate different functions. Tile panelling is a great method of dividing up the room. Here, tiles are applied to the wall up to a certain height, dividing it into two. Besides cosiness, this creates a spatial effect in the bathroom.

3. Create extra storage corners

Make your bathroom design unique by creating extra storage corners. You can do this by means of a low partition that you place against the wall. This way, you add depth to the bathroom. Moreover, you create more space to decorate or display bathroom items.

In addition, we increasingly see recesses in bathrooms. It offers the ultimate solution for storing your shampoo or shower gel in the shower area. Or choose a niche above the bath or toilet. This gives you the perfect place to neatly display your favourite personal care products or accessories. We recommend keeping the niche at eye level, so you can easily reach your things.

4. Get an original bathroom unit

The bathroom unit is the focal point of the bathroom. With a low-floating unit, you deviate from the traditional picture and give the interior a special look. The unit makes the bathroom look more spacious and leaves you with space to place a basket or other elements. Or how about a wall-hung basin? This model is fixed to the wall, without a base unit or basin worktop. This gives the bathroom a spacious and serene look.

5. Go for a countertop wash basin

Combining your bathroom unit with a vanity unit with basin instead of a wash basin adds a special touch to the room. Countertop wash basins have a chic look and come in many materials. How about a unique glass one? The transparent look creates a spacious atmosphere in the bathroom. These countertop wash basins are also available in milk glass, with the outside being white and the inside transparent. Natural stone countertop wash basins create a luxurious wellness feeling. For a cool twist, a countertop wash basin made of natural stone with a rough exterior is the perfect choice.

6. Choose unique taps

Coloured taps are a wonderful trend to add a special and eye-catching touch to your bathroom. These unique eye-catchers give the room character and complete the decor. Do you like an industrial interior? Then a matte black tap is a colour that matches the style of your bathroom. With a gold or copper tap, you can give your bathroom an exclusive twist. Choose one colour and continue this line throughout the bathroom for a harmonious result.

7. Place eye-catching mirrors

A mirror in the bathroom is not only practical, it also makes the room look visually larger. In addition, it provides an extra dimension. Mirrors are available in various sizes and shapes. To add a real eye-catcher to your bathroom interior, large mirrors are the perfect choice. For example, go for a large one with a round shape. The prominent appearance of this mirror immediately catches the eye. Moreover, the round design gives the room a playful ambiance.

8. Joint ambient lighting

Ambient lighting is an important factor in the bathroom. It provides soft light so you can relax during your shower or bath session. With mirror lighting, you not only experience practical advantages, but also enjoy more atmosphere in the room. Bathroom units can also be joined by lighting. The colour temperature can be adjusted to your own preference, so you can find the right light for every moment.
