How to style a traditional bathroom
Some of the main appeals of creating a traditional bathroom are that it will never go out of style, they are low maintenance, and the luxury aesthetic will stay on-trend for years.
When it comes to creating a traditional bathroom, there are a few key tips you need to consider:
- Surfaces: Use natural materials, such as stone, slate or granite. These are hard-wearing and can be paired with a range of traditional styles from multiple periods throughout history.
- Tiles: A common feature of many traditional bathrooms is the inclusion of tiles on both the walls and floors. If you decide to use tiles for your traditional bathroom, why not opt for something with charm, such as an octagonal style or a dot mosaic tile?
- Stand-out features: One way to give your bathroom a traditional look while tapping into a luxury aesthetic is by including stand-out focal features. This could be a grand vanity unit or a statement mirror that will make guests look even better than they do already – it’s all in the details.
- Colours: Stick to white, beige or soft blues if you want a colour scheme that will stand the test of time. These colours are known for their tranquil feel and will help create an elegant atmosphere. If you want to tap into the Victorian trend, you can use pops of deep, rich colours, such as bold purples, greens and blue.
Can you mix traditional and modern bathroom decor?
Of course, getting the best of both worlds is a great idea for those looking for bathroom inspiration. Blending traditional elements with modern fixtures and furnishings is an on-trend interior look that sets a luxurious scene in contemporary and period properties.
The fixtures within our Kensington range include vanity units, mirrors, taps, elegant showers and even bathroom accessories that incorporate traditional design with contemporary construction.
Blending the two aesthetics is a great way to show off your personality and interior taste. It allows you to pick traditional elements you love from periods of interior design history and give them a modern twist.
