If you’re looking to do a big, full-scale remodel of your master bathroom, I’m willing to bet there’s one thing above all else that you want that space to be: relaxing. A big, decadent bathroom is all about comfort and style – creating your own private little paradise where you can escape from the daily grind, settle into a tub full of bubbles or a custom shower and let you

Here on the homethangs blog, we really love copper – copper kitchen sinks, copper bathtubs, copper vessel sinks, just about any way you can emphasize or accessorize with copper in your home, we love it. Why? Because not only is copper beautiful and easy to care for, but it ages naturally with time, developing a beautiful antique patina and maturing as you use it. That means that not only are

Vessel sinks are truly the gems of modern bathroom design. Available in a huge variety of styles, colors, and (often hand-crafted) designs, a vessel sink is the perfect signature touch to give your bathroom a little extra personality. More than any other fixture in a bathroom, a vessel sink is an opportunity to insert a little artistic flair and a little designer chic into your decor. Each one is

Designing a modern styled bathroom requires a special kind of flair. Finding the perfect line between minimal and barren can be difficult, and keeping your bathroom looking clean and sleek while finding a place to put all your stuff can be even harder. But though modern bathroom vanities tend to have a simple outward aesthetic, many are designed with utility in mind. From clever internal design to

There are quite a few advantages to having a white bathroom vanity. I’ve talked about a few of them before: white is a light, bright, open color and can help open up a room and make it seem larger. Because it’s also the most neutral color, it’s easy to change the look of your bathroom without having to swap out your vanity or worry whether your new colors will clash. That said, t

Lighting is one of the most important elements of bathroom decor – decadent, layered bathroom lighting can really make the difference between a so-so design and something really stunning, purely by virtue of the warm, inviting feeling of lots of lighting. That said, once you’ve figured out what kind of functional lighting you need, there’s still plenty of room left to find fun, s

There area a lot of elements that go into great bathroom design. From the shade of your tiles to the size of your tub, it’s attention details, big and small, that really make a remodel shine. But it’s all too easy to forget about bathroom lighting – and it can be especially difficult to get it right when you can’t see how any given fixture will illuminate your space until i

When people talk about “decor,” they usually mean those finishing touches – big and small – that you use to perfect the look and feel of your living room. Sometimes it comes up in the context of a kitchen or bedroom as well, but more often than not the bathroom is hugely overlooked. Now, that isn’t to say that it’s totally unheard of in a bathroom – far fr

White is a clean, bright color, and black is sleek and bold, but together they make a killer style combination. The very essence of contrast, light and dark, a black and white decor is just about the boldest design choice you can make, and a bathroom is the perfect place to try the style on for size. Since many bathroom elements come in black and white already, it isn’t a big leap, and typic

Bathroom vanities come in all shapes, sizes, colors, and styles – from antique to modern, plain wood and just about any paint color, there are so many options out there it can be a little difficult to choose. That said, I’d like to take a moment to stand in defense of the white vanity: simple, clean, light, and bright, white vanities are supremely versatile and work well with just abou

When it comes to designing a truly peerless bathroom, you really have to go all the way.  You see, a designer bath isn’t just one thing – not your bathtub, not your shower, not your vanity, but the way all the parts interplay. For a modern style bathroom, this is pretty easy to do – all sleek lines and minimal decor in a matching color scheme, and you’ll have something uni

I’ve talked a bit about decorating solutions for small bathrooms, because when you don’t have a lot of space, it can be difficult to find a way to fit everything you need into the area you’ve got. But having a really big bathroom presents a few problems of its own. Sure, you have all the space you need for your dream soaking tub and a big, roomy custom shower, but finding a vanit

Modern styled bathrooms can be chronically chilly. For all their sleek, minimal chic and elegance, the bare-bones style and often industrial palette can end up feeling cold and inhospitable.  But pairing the simple lines and geometric designs of modern decor with a subtle Asian influence can dramatically change the vibe for a much warmer, more inviting space. Trading out concrete, steel, and glas

Modern bathrooms are nice, but if you’re looking for some truly decadent decor, a Victorian theme will win every time. Drawing on the luxurious designs of a time where bathing was more indulgence than necessity, opulent Victorian style elements will make you feel pampered before you ever set foot in your tub. Sagehill’s line of Victorian and antique vintage style vanities are made to d

The ideal bathroom remodel is always a little bit of a getaway – whether it’s a sleek, modern space for grownups to escape the kids, a decadent Victorian decor to turn back the clock, or even an Asian fusion style to take you around the globe, the goal is relaxation, to sneak you out of the daily grind and into a place where you can unwind. But sometimes those magazine centerfold bathr
