Seek inspiration
As with any design project, designing a beautiful spa-like bathroom begins with gathering inspiration. Find images that focus on materials and color palettes that you like and give you the vibe that you are hoping to achieve. Pay attention to the way these images make you feel. If the image elicits a feeling of Zen, or Hygge- (emphasizing warmth, comfort and simplicity), you’ve hit on the right inspiration for your space. Seek out imagery with lush greenery, soothing colors, and natural materials.
Nod to nature
Biophilic design, a philosophy that seeks to reconnect people with nature by incorporating natural elements into their surroundings, is key for this esthetic. Incorporating views of nature and natural elements into your design, the presence of natural materials (like plants, wood, stone, and water) is soothing and offer many health benefits, including lowering blood pressure. Using marble and limestone, as well as an antiqued edge on the floor tile for a natural, classic look works too. Also, incorporate plants into your bathroom design if you have a natural light source. All of this will reflect calmness and tranquility that a spa naturally does.
Use lighting to soften the look
Good lighting is a crucial part of a bathroom’s design. While an abundance of natural light is always preferred, you can enhance it with well-placed artificial lighting. Backlit mirrors are a go-to, as well as decorative sconces flanking the central usable area in the bathroom. It is very important to make you look your best while getting ready for the day, and lighting from sconces is more flattering than overhead lighting which may create harsh shadows.
Soften it up with Color
What can sometimes be a cold, utilitarian space can be morphed into a spa-like bathroom with the right color palette. Warm, muted tones create a cozy atmosphere versus cool tones which are a bit more lively, that work better in a warm climate. Some favorite colors for northern light include: Benjamin Moore’s Brandy Cream, Georgetown pink-beige, Dragonfly, and Chocolate Candy Brown.
Want to instantly cozy up your space? Add a vintage rug or unique artwork to add personality and warmth.
Most of all, have fun with your design thoughts. Continue to collect photos of your favorite looks, and the inspiration will come to you. Keep it relaxing and calm for your ultimate effect.
