At Home Spa Bathroom
The goal of an at-home ‘sparthroom’ is to recreate the tranquil, luxurious ambiance of a spa. To create a calm, peaceful, minimalistic and clutter free environment. A few changes to your bathroom can quickly make it feel luxurious and like you have a retreat right in your bathroom.
- Vertical wood panels
- Storage with towels
- Small table with incense or candle
- Pebbles
- Stone walls
- Soothing colours
- Natural material
Decorating with neutral colours is vital to achieving the spa look. Using wood furniture, like a small table, not only does it make the room look classy and provides a perfect space for a candle or incense burner. Pair this with a wooden bath mat, and your bathroom will instantly transform into a serene, spa retreat.
Storage in a spa inspired bathroom is important, as it helps neaten up the space and feel calm. You can use shelving with a towel bar to organise your toiletries and hang a white fluffy towel, adding to the cozy spa vibe.
The walls and flooring can impact the whole feel of the bathroom. Utilise bathroom wall panels as they have lots of styles including stone and wood, you can really capture the spa look with these. They’re easy to apply at home, waterproof and easy to clean. Wall panels are also a much cheaper version of tiles. Combining wall panels with a neutral coloured paint will give a clean and sophisticated look to the bathroom.

Botanical bathroom
Feeling closer to nature is something most people crave, why not bring that to your bathroom? They are plenty of plants that thrive in this environment, such as:
- Pothos
- Monstera
- Peace Lily Plant
- Fern
Pair these plants with wooden accents and beige walls, and opt for a botanical themed wallpaper. Using walls or floors that are close to nature also make the plants pop out even more, floors such as stone.
For those who prefer low-maintenance options, consider using faux plants. The plants come in a variety of styles. Styles that mimic Strelitzia or smaller potted succulents, provide the lush look of greenery without the upkeep.
Real or fake, adding a touch of nature to your bathroom can make it feel more relaxing and rejuvenating. Add a blast of green and transform your bathroom into a botanical haven.
Limewash walls
Dating back thousands of years, and originally used as a protective layer, to prevent damage from moisture. Limewash has recently resurfaced and gain popularity. Some homeowners are trying it themselves.
Limewash paint
Limewash is a natural material that, when used properly, absorbs into the surface and creates a solid, cured finish. It’s important to use limewash paint specifically designed for humid areas to ensure long-lasting quality. This special formulation will withstand the moisture and humidity typical of bathrooms, maintaining its beauty over time.
Faux Limewashing
This is a much easier way for people wanting to join in on the trend. By using two similar colours of paint and applying it with random strokes, it gives the cloud-like lime wash effect, without having to buy limewash paint.
Tip: Limewash can easily show imperfections underneath, so make sure to prepare before applying

Modern meets rustic
With the rise of people wanting to move to the countryside and live a cottagecore-esque life, home decor – bathrooms included – has been significantly influenced. By combining contemporary and rustic designs you can really change the feel of your bathroom.
Trends:
- Brass taps and fixtures
- Raw stone features
- Wooden features
- Freestanding Bath
- Wooden Framed Mirror
If you’re wanting the rustic look but don’t want to have to pay to get it done professionally, you can start with vinyl flooring. Vinyl flooring comes in different colours and textures, some of which can replicate stone and wood. This can be installed by anyone, just measure, apply adhesive, then stick down . This is also a great alternative for renters looking for something less permanent.
Taps and shower fixtures are another easy to fit option for someone wanting to change the feeling of the bathroom. Fitting a brass shower-head and taps can really make the room look transformed. If you match all the fittings it will make the room look more polished and cohesive.
To complete the look, consider adding a wooden framed mirror that matches your flooring. Incorporate bathroom ladder storage and hang a few plants to bring a touch of nature indoors. These finishing touches will tie the room together. Creating a modern and rustic combination that also provides utility and charm.
