ISLES-BATH #4/Pool
Zone: Bathroom Mood: Fish fantasy Why it works: Bathrooms are often seen as merely functional and utilitarian, but why not have a bit of fun with them? For some real originality, decorate the space with wallpaper such as this one from the Fornasetti II “Acquario” collection from Cole & Son. Wallpaper was out of fashion for many years, but it’s making a comeback thanks to new materials that can withstand moisture and condensation. If you’re still a little nervous about adding wallpaper to a busy bathroom, another option is removable wallpaper. These are usually non-vinyl, non-PVC fabrics with an adhesive backing, and are perfect for any wet area.
Nautical maps have beautiful colors and interest, almost like an abstract painting, and are a nice way to add some local flavor to the walls. They're also often an inexpensive way to cover a large wall.
Nautical Cleat Hook Set the tone for your house with boating-inspired cleat hooks on your entryway walls. Or put some by the back door for guests to hang their beach towels on.
Want to add some personality or drama to your bathroom without visually shrinking the space? Just look down. Try adding drama to elements with a lower profile, such as the vanity or the floor tile, while keeping the elements around your eyeline more simple and open. This approach gives the room lots of character while still maintaining a sense of openness. In fact, having a dark or vibrant color near floor level can sometimes make the upper half of the room feel even more open and airy by contrast.
Nice beach look..... not sure if wattage is enough for good light in bath?
POOL SHOWER & Master- tile for shower floors & under bath tub
Eight-Arms Hook This octopus hook from Anthropologie is on the pricey side, but it would add a lot of bang for your buck in a small bathroom.
