72 Stylish Bathroom Design Ideas

Legendary designer Mario Buatta always used dramatic curtains as a way to complement architectural elements in a room—including in the bath in this 1930s South Carolina farmhouse. Classic Tillett stripes drape the owners’ bath, creating an ideal spot for a little rest and relaxation.

The spa-like bath in this Montana hideaway decorated by Suzanne Tucker just calls for an après-ski soak. Architect Reid Smith designed the house in an angular C shape, rotating the outer wings inward, allowing total privacy and impeccable views from the bath.

The marbled clay Milanese tile (Clé) paired with the oil and charcoal painting by German artist Magnus Plessen in the owners’ bathroom reinforces the artistic spirit running through this Ellen Hamilton-designed Florida retreat.

Organic materials, such as the stone flooring and wooden Japanese soaking tub, paired with chromatic hardware complement the modern palette seen continuously throughout the Napa Valley cottage by designer Dan Fink.

Designer Robert Passal worked in secret with the owner of this New York pied-à-terre to obtain this light fixture (Larose Guyon) that his wife fell in love with early in the design process. It now hangs over the freestanding tub as the crown jewel of the room.

Vivacious color bursts in almost every room of Ceara Donnelley’s Charleston home, except for the main bedroom and bath, where the designer opted for a restrained palette. Light yellow and cream tones, seen on the creamy vanilla onyx (Artistic Tile), brighten the brass-rimmed vanity.

Well-versed in historic renovations, designer Philip Gorrivan preserved and repurposed original elements of this 270-year-old Connecticut house to pay homage to its revolutionary beginnings. The 1920s bay window was reused in the main bath to usher in light into the space. The upper walls and ceiling are covered in a flowery Josef Frank wallpaper from Svenskt Tenn.

For a couple with differing tastes, designer Summer Thornton made it her mission to achieve the perfect balance between the couple’s preferences in this Florida getaway. The main bath harmoniously blends the weight the husband likes—handsome stone floors (Paris Ceramics)—and airiness the wife prefers with the “swamp toile” drapery (Raoul Textiles). The nickel-plated tub is by Waterworks.

The homeowner of this Alabama cottage says that her designer (and daughter!) Melanie Pounds pushed her in new directions when it came to decorating. For example, instead of hanging the formal chandelier in the dining room, Pounds urged her mother to hang it over her bathtub for lavish appeal. The handsome oak paneling and a deep soaking tub (Waterworks) complete the look.

With otherworldly views of the Rocky Mountain seen out every window, it seemed only betting that woodland motifs made their way inside this Big Sky, Montana, condo by decorator Palmer Weiss. In the powder room, the 1880s Black Forest carved mirror brings dimension to a wilderness wallpaper by Lee Jofa.
