30 Bathroom Design Ideas

Take a tour of our stylish bathrooms for inspiration on how to create a relaxing oasis just right for you.

Bold patterns [1]

Bold patterned bath

The master bath of this Arkansas home uses boldly patterned wallpaper, window treatments and pillows to inject personality into the room.

Farmhouse bath [4]

A dresser scored for $50 gains new life as a vanity in the bathroom of this Nebraska farmhouse. The homeowners cut a hole in the dresser top for the sink and in back for plumbing. Enamel paint for wood and metal protects the dresser from moisture.

Pastel paradise [10]

A color palette inspired by beachy hues gives this St. Louis master bath the feel of a seaside retreat. To match the rest of the home's early-1900s architecture, two wall-mount faucets in polished nickel and sconce lighting were added above a concrete trough sink.

Marble masterpiece [13]

Bathroom vanity

A honed Carrara marble floor was the big splurge in this country-yet-glam bath. The homeowner saved money by updating a panel mirror with a stained wood frame. A modern vessel sink, reminiscent of an old wash basin, adds to the rustic, chic style.

Vintage finds for a bathroom [16]

A soda pop cooler becomes a colorful and creative sink. For unusual molding, this Minnesota homeowner applied yardsticks above corrugated steel wainscoting. To coordinate with the sink, she mixed red and green sticks.

Calming bath [19]

A shell chandelier hangs over a soaking tub in the master bathroom [20], where calming colors evoke the serenity of the nearby lake.

Painted vanity [23]

A painted vanity adds a bright pop of color and continues the casual, perky hues found in other rooms of this Lake Michigan home.

Spot on [26]

Spot on bathroom

Decor is spot on in this bath with round motifs like dot wallpaper and a circle mirror.

  • Log in [27] or register [28] to post comments

Farmhouse influence [29]

An old farm table is repurposed as a double vanity in this spaciyus master bathroom. Two white glass-bowl sinks stand out against the rustic surface. A free-standing armoire and black window shutters add to the farmhouse-style appeal.

Soothing style [32]

Soft floral wallpaper brings soothing style to a tiny powder room. Hanging monogrammed hand towels is an easy way to add a personal touch.

Spa-like retreat [35]

Weathered wood around the mirror contrasts with sleek, polished marble shower tiles in this contemporary bath. The overall effect is of a spa-like retreat.

Sweet country [38]

A reproduction claw-foot tub preserves old-cottage style in this light-filled bathroom. White subway tile and lavender paint brighten the walls.

  • Log in [39] or register [40] to post comments

Symmetric style [41]

A four-tier slim shelf keeps bathroom essentials within easy reach, while a set of twin mirrors gives this bath symmetry. Pops of orchid purple, lime green and black bring sophisticated color to the all-white bath.  

  • Log in [42] or register [43] to post comments

Playful modern [44]

His-and-her porcelain washbasins with custom trestle-style wooden legs and wall-mounted faucets look contemporary, yet casual, in a clean-white bathroom. Bright towels (stored cleverly in baskets under the sinks), artwork and a vase of flowers add pops of cheerful color.

  • Log in [45] or register [46] to post comments

Perfect fit [47]

Bring natural light to your vanity area with windows on either side. Earth-tone touches, such as vintage rattan and dark wood, warm this white bathroom.

  • Log in [48] or register [49] to post comments

Fresh looks [50]

White cabinetry and modern hardware offer a crisp, clean look. A sleek faucet adds more style to the square vessel on a new granite countertop.

  • Log in [51] or register [52] to post comments

Naturally light [53]

Natural color oak, neutral limestone and a white tub keep the palette of this bath light and bright. Windows let in plenty of light but are also placed for privacy.

  • Log in [54] or register [55] to post comments

Inexpensive elegance [56]

A concrete countertop dresses up basic white-painted cabinetry and looks great with brushed-nickel fixtures and accessories. Black-and-white photography, opposite the mirror, is easy art. Bargain white fabric makes pretty drapes.

  • Log in [57] or register [58] to post comments

Warm and welcoming [59]

Dark wood cabinets (with a convenient cutout for towels) and caramel walls give this guest bath a cozy feel. Mosaic glass tiles pull from the rich colors for a cohesive scheme.

Nature walls [64]

A life-size mural of aspen trees in winter turns this bathroom into a relaxing outdoorlike oasis. Soft green paint matches the leaves in the paper. Two tones of wood accents help warm the space.

Rustic retreat [67]

A bright rug and striped shower curtain liven the wood paneling in this rustic retreat bathroom. Inexpensive hooks from a hardware store are great for holding multiple wet towels (in colors to match the decor).

  • Log in [68] or register [69] to post comments

Handcrafted style [70]

A custom-cut quartzite countertop and an artisan-made sink bowl and accent tiles give this powder room Arts and Crafts style.

Simply traditional [73]

Dark woods and taupes warm this traditional-style master bath. Floating a stock drawer unit between a pair of vanities creates a custom, furniture-style look and offers extra counter space. Framing the mirrors adds a simple but impactful touch.

  • Log in [74] or register [75] to post comments

Sparkling glamour [76]

Shimmering glass tile covers a sparkling surround to a low, jetted tub. A series of green-leaf prints and a window waterfall enhance the relaxing bath.

  • Log in [77] or register [78] to post comments

Simple and serene [79]

Calming chocolate-brown walls contrast with white cabinetry, trim and floor tile to create architectural interest in this soothing master bathroom. A white-painted freestanding cabinet, rescued from a flea market, offers extra storage for towels and bath essentials. A grouping of antique mirrors on the wall brings a touch of elegance.

  • Log in [80] or register [81] to post comments

Farmhouse flair [82]

A sleek backsplash, wall faucet and carved counter give this rustic bathroom a modern touch. A slanted area in the counter directs water to the silver "trough" below, giving a new spin on an old farm idea. An inexpensive closet mirror, framed with raw cedar, hangs horizontally and completes the rural theme.

Outside feel [85]

It's like bathing outside--but in private! Setting the soaking tub in front of the windows provides an extensive view of nature in this Lake Michigan home. Cafe curtains maintain privacy.

  • Log in [86] or register [87] to post comments

Space saver [88]

To fit a soaking tub in the master bathroom, the homeowners opted for slim his-and-her sinks.

Practical indulgence [91]

A walk-in shower is the focal point of this bathroom. Though the black-and-white scheme gives it a masculine tone, beaded board, fluffy towels and the sweet etagere balance the look.

Old tub, new bath [94]

An antique claw-foot tub sits in a dormer in a new bathroom carved out of attic space.
