Consider elegant mosaic tile flooring in a soft pastel shade of pink or mint green, or spice up your wall space with an asymmetrical or sunburst mirror. Textural Touches Adding a bit of texture to your bathroom counterbalances its smooth lines and keeps your space from appearing too sterile. Luxurious, stylized wallpaper in fabrics like grasscloth lend a tactile element to the room, creating a sense of warmth; just make sure your bathroom is properly ventilated (or stick to waterproof wallpaper materials such as fiberglass). Likewise, a gorgeously patterned wool rug can seamlessly tie disparate features together. There’s no need to worry about placing a wool rug in a high-humidity environment, either; wool naturally wicks moisture very effectively. Pushing the Boundaries Don’t be afraid to think outside the box when designing your bathroom. There’s no reason for this room to be constrained to its own small space; indeed, one of the most exciting trends in luxury bathrooms is the combination of the bathroom with another room in the house, such as the master bedroom. Removing the barrier between the two rooms helps to weave the concept of self-care into every aspect of your dayto-day life. Showstopping design elements like a deep soaking tub are no longer relegated to the confines of the bathroom; instead, they play an integral part in the overall design of a master suite (perhaps separated from the bed area by a partition wall or a raised platform). You could also incorporate a small seating area in your bathroom layout, or, depending on your climate and the level of privacy in your home, design a bathroom that opens onto an outdoor patio with a shower or tub. By making your bathroom the luxurious focal point of your wellness rituals, you can elevate even the smallest habits and activities into calming and restorative experiences that lift your spirits and enhance your overall health.
