How to Create a Cool Coastal Bathroom Design?
Transforming your bathroom into a serene coastal retreat is all about blending a calming colour palette with clean lines and natural textures. In this guide, we’ll dive into how to achieve that effortlessly cool coastal look that transports you straight to the shore.
1. Choose a Calm and Crisp Colour Palette
A coastal bathroom should evoke serenity. Start with soft, sandy whites, ocean blues, and touches of warm golds or tans. The Minimalist Muse Series - Urban Sculpture Set 3 tiles are a fantastic choice, with clean, muted tones and subtle textures that resemble soft ocean waves. These ceramic tiles create a light, airy backdrop that feels both sophisticated and approachable.
2. Play with Subtle Textures and Patterns
Coastal style doesn’t have to mean overtly nautical. Subtle, sophisticated textures in your tile can add depth without overpowering the space. The slightly embossed design of the Urban Sculpture tiles on the wall adds a hint of dimension while keeping the look sleek and modern. Pairing this with the CoCo Starmoon Series - Deep Space
porcelain floor tiles, featuring a rich, slate-blue finish, brings the vastness of the ocean right underfoot.
3. Use Minimalistic Fixtures with Coastal Flair
Coastal design is all about simplicity. Opt for fixtures with clean lines in finishes that echo the natural, sunlit glow of a beach day. Brushed brass or soft gold fixtures add warmth and elegance without detracting from the clean coastal vibe. A simple, rounded mirror with a gold frame, as seen in our inspiration photo, enhances the soft, inviting feel.
4. Incorporate Natural Elements and Decor
To truly capture the essence of the coast, add elements like driftwood, seashells, or delicate dried florals. Here, a few minimalist vases with a splash of yellow flowers introduce colour without disrupting the serene colour scheme. Small details like these give your bathroom a personal, lived-in feel that exudes coastal charm.
5. Maximise Lighting for an Open and Airy Feel
Coastal spaces are all about light. Consider adding soft pendant lights or sconces with a white or gold finish to enhance the room’s natural glow. This setup with hanging globe lights complements the overall design by adding warmth while keeping it elegant and modern.
6. Finishing Touches with Functional Decor
Opt for plush white towels, clean-lined storage, and minimalistic organisers. Coastal design is a blend of style and simplicity, so choose decor that’s functional yet beautiful. The contrast between a deep navy cabinet and a crisp white countertop in our setup balances the room, adding storage space while enhancing the coastal palette.
Wrapping Up
Creating a cool coastal bathroom is all about balance. By combining soft, beach-inspired colours with natural elements, subtle textures, and elegant, minimal fixtures, you can craft a space that feels like a calm coastal sanctuary right in your home. Whether you're drawn to the elegance of the Minimalist Muse wall tiles or the deep allure of the Starmoon Series floor tiles, these design choices will bring the essence of the coast to your daily routine.
