Luxurious Gold Bathroom Design: Tips and Ideas…… Gold is increasingly becoming a statement of intent. A way of expressing our aspirations and personal taste.

With all the sanitary ware and decorative options on the market, we can make the bathroom show our own individuality in a practical and luxurious way. It is the one space in the modern home that is private, dedicated to wellness (both body and mind) and luxurious pampering. Gold too is synonymous with luxury.

If we think about the bathroom as the precious jewel in our home, then the gold bathroom takes on a special significance.

Luxurious Gold Bathroom Design: Tips and Ideas…

With the gold bathroom sometimes less is more. Gold is a precious metal and overegging the omelette can be counterproductive. As a way of drawing the eye, nothing compares to gold, but too much and it just fades into the background.

The best ways to feature gold in the bathroom depend on the other materials used throughout the space. With this article, we are going to examine how to highlight gold under the next categories:

  • Gold bathroom lighting and accessories
  • Gold bathroom taps and shower fittings
  • Sanitary ware finishes and mosaic tiles
  • Plumbing installations

Accessories are the key to unlocking the potential of the gold bathroom. The most popular ones include towel rails, toilet roll and brush holders, shelving, mirror frames, etc. Brushed gold bathroom taps, for example, have a flat but intriguing presence. But don’t forget lighting and elements of furniture and sanitary ware like Wash Hand Basins. They are also excellent ways to introduce gold.

Gold bathroom accessories work best when seen against plain, or monochrome finishes. Marble effect wall tiles, stone and plain ceramic are good options. The gold should really stand out like a piece of jewellery against the skin. That way it draws the eye as well as fulfilling a practical role.

A gold light feature can really pull a bathroom space together because gold can accentuate traditional or modern style décor. A vintage light fitting in gold never looks out of place whether it be Victorian era or Mid-century modern.

A small stool, storage unit or side table in gold just be enough, when joint with a complimentary tile, to add a luxurious element. These additions are not only decorative but give handy ways to store and keep toiletries close to hand in a gold bathroom.

There are two popular categories of gold finish. The brushed gold finish, which is matt, and the polished gold finish, which is shiny. Brushed gold looks very contemporary since polished gold was more popular in the past. So, depending on the style you are creating, one or the other will be more suitable in your gold bathroom.

Mixing and matching can be a great way to draw attention to gold taps in the bathroom. Like the example above, where a period-style WHB is paired with a brushed gold finish for the taps, sink plug and even the soap dispenser. The effect is visually powerful, especially against the white ceramic.
