Desiring a luxe bathroom? Read on to find out how to create one!

Cleanliness and impeccable grooming are worthy ideals for us all, so the mood and environment of our bathrooms should not be underestimated, or banished as a topic of lesser elegance. Rather, the luxe bathroom is all about elegance – the essential and very personal space in our homes that gives inspiration to the question, ‘who do I want to be today?’. To dismiss the bathroom as a place of pure function is to deny oneself the pleasure of the long soak, with wine and chocolate in tow, which only that perfect luxe bathroom can provide. So here are my tips on how to create yours.

1 Embrace White

There’s no disguising that we here at Beige Renegade love all things white. However, there are also of course practical considerations. The bathroom is inherently one of the smaller spaces in your home. By embracing white as the primary element in this room you will open the room up to look lighter and more spacious. White is also, inevitably, always a clean and luxurious backdrop for the rest of your luxe bathroom accoutrements.

2Invest in fixtures

Your fixtures are the all important moving parts of your bathroom, but they are also key visual elements which, on their own, can give a dated bathroom a dramatic face-lift without a great deal of cost. Quality speaks for itself (and poor quality fools no one!), so taps, shower heads and so on should always be of the best material and craftsmanship. If you want to subvert the norm, unexpected chrome and copper shades, or even matte black can modernise even the most archaic of showers. And of course the matters of functionality must be carefully considered. Your fixtures should be convenient to use, and – importantly – easy to clean and maintain. Remember, the quality and luxe go hand in hand.

3 Consider your centre piece

Every room should have a centre piece, the opening statement, which, as with any literary masterpiece, have transformative powers. We are loving the current trend for a luxuriously deep and generous freestanding bathtub. All the better to luxuriate in. Set the tone with your centre piece, then follow the theme through.

4Thoughtfully appointed storage

As with our discussion on fixtures, bathroom storage is a two pronged question of functionality and style. After all, a luxe bathroom must be orderly and never cluttered, so enough story to free up those surfaces is a top priority. However, your cabinets is yet another avenue of self expression.

5Sprinkle On The Accoutrements

Your selection of decor and products to display in your bathroom will say a lot about your personal style. For a chic, luxurious look we recommend keeping only a selection of the most aesthetically pleasing products on display – from your signature brand, of course – and decanting others into attractive ceramic vessels – personalise where ever opportunity allows. A few well-placed candles will also add a subtle perfume and mood lighting when the desire for the all important ‘me-time’ soak strikes.
