From modern minimalism to boho vibes, we’ll walk you through some beautiful inspiration for creating clever storage space and adding decorative accents and small touches that will help breath new life into your bathroom or powder room.

Modern Bathroom Decor

1. Sleek, Minimal, and Oh-So-Chic

Modern bathroom decor is all about clean lines, simple shapes, and a minimalist aesthetic. Think of it like a blank canvas where each element speaks for itself. Glass, mirrors metal, and concrete are your go-to materials for that streamlined, contemporary, high end look.

2. Go Bold or Go Home

If you love modern but crave a pop of personality, this one’s for you! Incorporate a geometric patterned tile or a bold-coloured accent wall to add a splash of fun for an eclectic look in your bathroom.

3. STATEMENT BASIN

Choose a standout basin in a bold material like stone or ceramic to give your bathroom that high-end, designer touch. It’s a small detail in your bathroom design, but it can make a big impact, making your bathroom look super elegant.

4. Floating Vanity

A floating vanity (AKA wall-mounted vanity) not only looks seamless and modern but it also frees up floor space, making your bathroom feel bigger. Plus, it gives you extra room to store baskets or bins underneath - a win for both good looks and functionality!

5. FRAMELESS GLASS SHOWER SCREEN

Want to make a small bathroom feel more open? A frameless glass shower is your answer! It provides a seamless, open feel while allowing light to bounce around the room, making the entire space appear larger and brighter.

6. Minimalist Fixtures

Keep it clean and simple with sleek tapware and accessories in black, chrome, or brushed brass. Minimalist fixtures are the key to achieving that polished, modern look. Opt for linear designs that enhance the simplicity of the space, ensuring the focus remains on clean lines and form.

Modern Farmhouse Bathroom

7. MIX TIMBER & METALS

Farmhouse chic is all about balance. Combine a wood vanity with metal hardware to bring that perfect mix of rustic warmth and modern style into your bathroom. The combination of these two materials adds texture and charm while still feeling fresh and contemporary.

8. Vintage Light Fixtures

Lighting can make or break your space! Go for industrial or vintage-inspired light fixtures to enhance that cosy farmhouse vibe. These fixtures not only serve as lighting solutions but also add character to your bathroom.

9. Stone Details

Incorporating stone basins or benchtops adds a rustic yet refined touch to a modern farmhouse bathroom. Stone and other natural materials bring in a natural, organic element that balances out the clean lines of modern decor. It’s perfect for that earthy, grounded feel.

10. Rustic Shelving

Add extra storage with floating wooden shelves. These shelves offer the perfect place to display decorative items, and plants, or even store toiletries. The natural wood gives the space a warm, inviting feel, blending rustic charm with modern functionality.

11. CLADDING ON THE Walls

Whether you prefer shiplap, tongue and groove or VJ - you can’t talk farmhouse without mentioning cladding! Add it to one or more walls to create a focal point that radiates farmhouse appeal. This subtle texture adds depth to your space and pairs perfectly with both modern and rustic decor and works in a large or small space.

Bathroom Storage and Organisation

12. Keep It Clutter-Free

There’s nothing worse than a cluttered bathroom. Make sure you incluse a wall-mounted cabinet or shelf in your bathroom design to store essentials. This not only maximises vertical space but also keeps countertops clear, making the space feel more organised and calming.

13. Storage Baskets

For an inexpensive and practical storage solution, try decorative baskets. They’re perfect for storing towels, toiletries, or even laundry. Choose baskets that fit the overall decor - whether it’s boho, coastal, or modern.

14. Recessed Storage

Don’t have a lot of space? Consider a recessed cabinet or open-shelving that won’t take up any extra floor area. It’s a clever way to borrow space from your wall cavity rather than your floor space to create much-needed storage.

15. DRAWER Organisers

Custom drawer organisers to hold things like hair dryers, straighteners and brushes are the absolute bomb! But if your budget doesn’t allow, use dividers and baskets to create a place for everything and keep everything in its place.

16. UNDER VANITY Shelves

If you’re looking for extra storage without overwhelming the room, under vanity shelves are a great option They’re an extension of your vanity and provide extra storage for everything from towels to toilet paper (the beautifully wrapped kind, of course).

17. Ladder Shelf

A ladder shelf not only provides ample hanging room but also adds a decorative touch to your bathroom. It’s perfect for holding towels, baskets, or toiletries, and can be easily moved around as required.

Boho Bathroom Decor

18. Macramé Wall Hanging

Bring some texture and warmth into your bathroom with a beautiful beaded wall hanging. It’s a simple yet stylish way to add a boho vibe, especially when paired with natural elements like timber and dried flowers.

19. Vintage Mirrors

A vintage mirror with an ornate frame can elevate your boho bathroom instantly. It’s the perfect mix of elegance and free-spirited charm, adding a unique focal point to your space.

20. Patterned Tiles

Patterned tiles are a great way to take bathrooms to the next level. Use them to inject playfulness on the floors, in the shower, around the bathtub and on the splashback.

21. Wicker Baskets

Add wicker or rattan baskets for a natural, relaxed storage option. These baskets are not only practical but also a quintessential boho decor element, perfect for holding extra towels or toiletries.

22. Global-Inspired Accessories

Bring in global-inspired textiles like a Turkish rug or ornate vanity to add depth and cultural flair to your boho bathroom. Mixing elements from different parts of the world is what makes boho so effortlessly cool.

Coastal Bathroom Decor

23. Nautical Colours

Nothing says coastal Hamptons quite like a blue-and-white colour scheme. It’s timeless and fresh, perfect for a bathroom that feels both relaxing and vibrant. Add accents like shells and coral for a complete coastal look… but try to avoid the nautical cliches.

24. SEE YOURSELF BY THE SEASIDE

Use a classic seaside-inspired mirror to give your bathroom that beachy feel. The natural texture of timber painted white brings in an element of nature, grounding the room while adding coastal character.

25. Shell Accents

Decorate with seashell soap dishes or our favourite resin shells for subtle coastal decor touches. These little details make your bathroom feel like a breezy, beachside escape without being OTT coastal themed.

Bathroom Lighting and MIRRORS

Install pendant lights over the vanity for a pretty and practical light source. Not only do they provide ample lighting for daily tasks, but they also add a decorative element that enhances the overall look. Love the look but too close to water?

29. Sconce Lighting

For a more intimate, flattering light, install wall sconces next to the mirror. They provide soft, even lighting that’s perfect for makeup application or creating a relaxing atmosphere.

An LED-lit backlit or underlit mirror offers modern functionality while adding a beautiful glow to your bathroom of any style. It’s a practical choice that’s perfect for making a small bathroom look both larger and brighter.

Bathroom Greenery and Plants
