Curious about the finer points of creating a classic bathroom? First, put on a violin concerto in the background, then read on…
If the bathroom you want to decorate in a classic style already has a bath, we strongly recommend replacing it with a model on feet. We would say it is worth doing even if it takes your entire budget, because a bath on feet is the star of a classic bathroom. A model with flowing curves, perhaps with gold-coloured feet, will transform the atmosphere instantly.
Doesn’t black immediately bring elegance to mind? Then this colour needs to find its way into our bathroom. Your bathroom cupboards or the wall behind the basins could be black. Rather than choosing black objects, try using the colour across a large surface for a stronger effect.
A classic style is never complete without gold touches. But how should you introduce gold into a classic bathroom? Used sparingly on cupboard handles, the shower head, taps, mirror frames and wall lights, gold details will be enough to create the effect you want. We are talking about a restrained arrangement here. Use too much and the result will look exaggerated, so take care.
Accessories are among the most important details when creating a classic bathroom. At this stage, do not be afraid to think beyond the usual boundaries and use a valuable handmade rug on the floor or a sparkling chandelier overhead. You can even arrange other favourite accessories on shelves just as you would style a display cabinet in the sitting room. Add hanging oil paintings on the walls and creating an orchid corner to your list of creative ideas.
