Modern coastal vibes in your bathroom

We usually spend most of the winter wishing it was summer, so why not create a coastal feel in your bathroom? This way, it will feel like summer at the beach all year round.

To get the look, you don’t have to embrace all the clichés, just a couple of touches will be enough to say ‘coastal’ but not scream ‘theme bathroom’.

Panelling
Wooden panelling, painted white, immediately conveys ‘modern beach heaven’. Clean and pristine, it helps tell your coastal story, whilst still being modern and simple.





Natural Stone
The use of organic materials, like stone tiles and pebble-effect finishes immediately adds to the coastal feel. Offset all the beige with lots of white though to keep your space light, bright and airy.





Seaside Collections
If arranged imaginatively, as below, you can display all of your beautiful seaside findings. By using custom-built slim shelves, the designers of this bathroom have given it a gallery feel with a beautifully-curated collection of shells and starfish.



Nautical Fittings
Using mirrors finished with thick rope, or light fittings with heavy chrome accepts and graphic lines, really adds to the nautical feel. But finish with organic materials (and even marble for a luxurious edge) to make your bathroom feel current rather than antiquated.
