Your bathroom is more than just a functional space—it's a personal sanctuary where you start and end your day. Whether you're planning a complete overhaul or looking for simple updates, these design tips and product suggestions will help you create a stylish and inviting bathroom oasis.
- Set the Foundation: Flooring and Walls
While Darthome doesn't offer these products directly, updating your flooring and walls can dramatically transform your bathroom:
- Flooring: Consider water-resistant options like porcelain tiles, luxury vinyl, or natural stone. For a modern touch, try large-format tiles or wood-look porcelain planks.
- Wall Tiles: Use textured tiles for visual interest or large-format tiles for a sleek, contemporary look. Mix and match tiles to create accent walls.
- Paint: For non-tiled areas, choose moisture-resistant paint in calming colours like soft blues, greens, or warm neutrals.
- Make a Statement with Mirrors
A well-chosen mirror can be both functional and a striking design element:
- Opt for a large, frameless mirror to create the illusion of more space
- Choose a uniquely shaped mirror (e.g., round or asymmetrical) for added interest
- Install a mirror with built-in LED lighting for both style and functionality

- Bring Nature Indoors with Hanging Vases
Add a touch of greenery to soften the hard surfaces in your bathroom:
- Install wall-mounted or hanging vases for low-maintenance plants like air plants or small ferns
- Use a mix of glass and ceramic vases for visual variety
- Arrange vases at different heights to create a dynamic display

- Consider materials like matte black, brushed gold, or frosted glass for a luxe feel

Proper lighting can transform the ambiance of your bathroom:

- Incorporate Texture and Warmth
Soften the typically hard surfaces of a bathroom with textiles:
- Hang plush, absorbent towels on stylish towel bars or hooks
- Add a soft bath mat in a complementary colour or pattern
- Use a shower curtain as a design element, choosing bold patterns or rich textures
- Don't Forget the Details
Small touches can make a big difference:
- Update hardware like faucets, shower heads, and cabinet pulls for an instant refresh
- Add artwork or framed prints to bare walls for personality
- Use decorative trays and dishes to organise toiletries on countertops
- Create a Cohesive Colour Scheme
Tie everything together with a well-planned colour palette:
- Choose a primary colour for larger elements and two or three accent colours
- Use your chosen colours consistently across tiles, paint, textiles, and accessories
- Don't be afraid to incorporate patterns, but balance them with solid colours
By incorporating these design tips and carefully selected products, you can transform your bathroom into a stylish, functional, and inviting space that reflects your personal taste.
