4 Stunning Bathrooms to Inspire Your Next Remodel
This article showcases four distinct bathroom designs, each offering unique inspiration for modern remodels, emphasizing high-contrast palettes, natural elements, and metallic accents. The first featured bathroom, located within a modern residence in central Boulder, is a 200-square-foot space designed by Surround Architecture. It integrates seamlessly with its 6.5-acre green surroundings through clerestory windows, a vaulted cedar ceiling, and dramatic vertical windows framing the tub. The design prioritizes visual access to the outdoors, fostering an intimate connection between the garden and bath. Custom walnut his-and-hers vanities by RL Woodworks & Design, featuring sleek mirrors with flush LED lights, anchor the space. White concrete floor tiles and countertops around a Stone Forest sink complement custom silver vein-cut marble slabs in the tub and shower areas. A Foscarini chandelier above the tub introduces softer elements, balancing the clean black-white-gray palette and sharp angles. Architect Chad Willis describes the project as a study in rich, raw, industrial materials, refined to create a spa-like environment.
The second design, a powder room by JF Design principal Jane Freking, demonstrates how a small space can embrace bold and dramatic decor. Freking selected Kelly Wearstler’s Graffito wallpaper in Onyx for its visual impact, extending the graphic pattern to custom-made Roman shades to achieve a cohesive look. The design balances these bold elements with warm, 10-inch-wide white-oak floor planks for a resting place for the eye. Textural contrast is achieved with a sleek Neolith countertop from The Stone Collection and a Fisher Weisman rope sconce, which complements the natural finish of the floorboards. A simple, wall-to-wall mirror with a beveled edge allows the more prominent design elements to shine, creating a high-impact yet balanced space.
The third bathroom is part of a LoDo loft renovation, a collaboration between New York City-based Carol Maryan Architects and local construction firm Buildwell. The project focuses on blending historic character with modern elegance, respecting the original materials and roots of the turn-of-the-century building. The design incorporates high-end finishes, such as Restoration Hardware mirrors and porcelain floors with a concrete finish, alongside original architectural features like exposed wood ceiling beams. The floating vanity, designed by Maryan and built by Marc Hunter Woodworking & Design, evokes nostalgia with its green Quartzite Aqua Light countertop. This is complemented by earthy stone and blackened-steel in the shower, French brass fixtures, aged brass-framed mirrors, and the original wood ceilings. This renovation successfully integrates luxury with the rustic charm of a warehouse loft, as described by Buildwell owner Ryan Withers.
Finally, designer Erin Hatzis of Everyday Interior Design transformed her own travertine-heavy master bathroom into a modern space with bold contrasts and soothing neutrals. She used Fireclay subway tile in a dark gray-green hue (Loch Ness) for the shower walls and ceiling, providing depth without overwhelming the space with color. Matching white backsplash tile and a custom-built white-oak vanity with Shaker detailing by RC Woodworks add subtle texture and warmth. The flooring consists of cement tile from Arto, offering a softer feel than ceramic and a slight sheen. A brushed-gold Arteriors chandelier over the Wetstyle tub serves as a key lighting element and a significant splurge, with its warm metallic tone echoed by Kohler plumbing fixtures and Restoration Hardware sconces. Hatzis advises selecting timeless pieces for larger items like cabinetry and tile, while incorporating trendy elements through fixtures and hardware to achieve a sophisticated and current design.
