The Shaker-style cabinets were designed with minimal ornamentation to blend traditional and contemporary styles. “The units go right to the ceiling, but without any decorative moldings at the top,” Sawyer says. He included a marble countertop and outlets for a coffee machine and juicer. “The doors are retractable and slot into the sides,” he says. “The cabinet is located near to the breakfast bar for easy access, and concealed lighting comes on when you open the doors.”
crisp modern farmhouse bathroom with traditional materials used in a modern way. Designer Susana Simonpietri of Chango & Co. and James Crisp and Sandee Mahoney of Crisp Architects collaborated on this space, which has large-format (18-by-36-inch) Belgian bluestone floor tile that lends a contemporary feeling. The dark grout against the white subway tile also feels current.

The shower has a curbless entry, and the double vanity can accommodate seated and standing positions. Beige porcelain tile runs from the floor to the ceiling on three walls.

The shower entry (not pictured) is curbless, and the flooring is slip-resistant tile. The fold-down bench seat is compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and the space has sufficient room for a caregiver to assist. The natural stone shower walls have plywood blocking behind them so that grab bars can be installed in the future.
Russian surprising door on the side of the island. It turns out it’s a Dunavox wine fridge that holds six bottles. Another clever feature is the upper cabinets, which were designed in two rows, with the lower one shallower than the top. This design trick ensures the homeowners won’t bump their heads when doing dishes.
Their second-floor bathroom faucets are orange, the floor’s signature color. The sink is custom-made out of concrete, and the couple chose a dark gray color to create contrast with the accent orange. The resin flooring offers slip-resistance and complements the ground floor’s polished concrete.
If sculptural, minimal style makes your heart go pitter-patter, this big stone tub will probably earn a spot on your wish list.

A vintage door with a stained glass window opens up to this decidedly contemporary bathroom in Melbourne, Australia.

The younger sister’s vanity, shown in the previous photo, is in the lower right corner; the shared shower stall is in the lower left corner; and the older sister’s space is above it on the top left.

faucets that recall the look of train wheels, added a glass-and-steel divider and repurposed a TV console into a smart vanity.
This bathroom features a curbless shower, a bench seat, grab bars and room beneath the sink for a wheelchair.
compared with the price of tiling that wall, a mirror can actually give you an equally dramatic look (if not more so) at a better value. Splurge on a large mirror with a beautiful frame, or go wall-to-wall with a custom-sized piece.
A mirror in the home’s main powder room, made of a recycled bicycle tire, picks up the bright green as well. Backsplash tile: Pratt & Larson
Albers designed a custom wood surround for the undermount bathtub. A new skylight above the tub brings in natural light during the day and allows for a view of starry skies at night. Custom wainscoting on the walls is painted in Benjamin Moore’s Duxbury Gray, a soothing color that has shades of blue, gray and green mixed in. Bathtub: Mariposa, Kohler
smart controls outside the shower allow you to press a button and turn on the water to a preset temperature.
These tall, narrow pull-out cabinets make the most of the space and are conveniently located next to the vanity. Notable detail: There’s even a makeup mirror inside for those moments when the homeowner doesn’t want to have to lean over the counter for a close-up.
Notable detail: The shower door handle. It’s something you may not think of at first, but the style and finish is important. This one’s unforgiving straight lines play off the architecture of the bench and the wall tile pattern.
MMAD Architecture Email Save 5. Herringbone Huzzah! The seamless continuity provided by the herringbone pattern here is a stunner. And the curbless shower stall makes it even more so. Notable details: The cantilevered vanity allows the herringbone floor to extend even farther.
Farmhouse-Inspired Warmth Wood accents, shiplap walls, a sliding barn door and Shaker-style cabinetry all bring farmhouse-style warmth to this transitional bath. Notable detail: The mirrored sliding barn door helps bounce light around this space. The vanity mirrors, knee-wall top and tub shelf all pick up on the wood in this piece.
The graphic look of metal-framed shower surrounds has grown in popularity over the past few years, so much so that this once-unheard of door style is much more readily available today.
If there weren’t a glass partition here, you might not even guess that the extended tub surround becomes the shower bench. By using the same tile across the floor, up the sides of the surround and on the entire wall, this bathroom exudes a quiet and calm feeling.
Many Americans still fear the splash of a wet room, a strategy our European friends are much more used to employing in tight bathrooms. This clever design has the best of both worlds: The shower can remain open to the rest of the room for an airy feel, but a shower curtain is hiding behind the wall next to the vanity, its rod unobtrusively tucked right up next to the ceiling. Notable detail: That hunky, chunky block of a vanity makes a strong impact.
Backlit bathroom mirrors create a pleasing glow when you’re entering the bathroom in the middle of the night. This design takes the glow to another whole layer: backlit floating panels behind the backlit mirrors. Notable detail: The thick concrete counter trend seemed to gain steam in 2017.
Using a mirror this way allows you to move the vanity to areas you didn’t think possible. Imagine the floor plans you could create with your sink in front of a window.

This tile has quite a large diamond pattern, so it needs a reasonable amount of visible floor area to be appreciated. A black-and-white geometric design also looks good teamed with color, as they’ve done here with the glossy blue wall tiles.
Mirrors installed around the perimeter not only brighten the room by reflecting light, but also create the illusion of more windows.

Glass screen: A glass screen or panel extends about 60 percent of the way across the side of the tub and is fixed to the wall with brackets or hinges. It can be stationary or have a door that swings out from the tub. “There’s always a chance that when you shower, water will splash out,” Guttilla says, “but nine out of 10 times, that’s never a problem. If you shower with the water pointed all the way to the back of the shower, that’s when it becomes an issue.”
