From the shower floors to the walls, installing bathroom tile is an excellent way to give this important room a major refresh. If you’re looking for inspiration, green tiles add a fresh pop of color to your bathing space. Whether it’s a sleek subway wall tile, light marbled hues, or stunning herringbone, the possibilities are endless.

You can add new green-colored floor tiles, elevate a walk-in shower, or decorate the walls with this versatile material. A green tile bathroom makes both a powder room and a main bathroom look and feel more lively. In the list below, you can find the most inspiring green bathroom tile ideas that will give your bathroom a refreshing makeover.

Dark Green Subway Tiles Add Drama

The dark, deep forest green color of these subway tiles gives this bathroom a bold, dramatic vibe. Note how the white grout lines help to make the details and the color of the tile pop.

In this example, the homeowner chose to install the tiles from the floor to the ceiling for an impressive effect.

Mix and Match Green Tiles with Other Materials

Although green tiles are prominent in this bathroom, they’re mixed with other materials as well. The swirling marble floors and tub surround give the room a sense of luxe sophistication.

Using white cabinets and fixtures also helps to break up the space so it doesn’t feel too monochrome or bland. Mixing the two materials (and color schemes) also gives this particular bathroom design an elevated look and feel.

Add Metallics to Make Green Tile Pop

The dark green tiles in this bathroom-laundry room combo are bold and deep, giving it a contemporary vibe. Installing sleek brushed gold hardware including some towel racks, the rainfall showerhead, and other accents to match not only visually breaks up the space, but it also lends it a sleek, sophisticated component.

Instead of adding standard bland builder’s grade fixtures, the homeowner chose to upgrade to something a bit more high-end, making this one of the best green bathroom ideas on our list.

Try a Light Green Herringbone Tile

If you want your green bathroom tile to be a bit more subtle, consider this example. Yes, the shower cove has green walls, but the shade is much lighter and has a slightly marbled effect with tones of ivory or creamy white mixed in.

The choice to install herringbone tile also gives this bathroom a sweet, soft look that’s not too modern or cold. It also pairs nicely with the white paint throughout the rest of the bathroom, giving it a perfect, subtle pop of color without being too overbearing.

Combine Colors and Patterns

Here, the bathroom walls feature an almost olive-green colored tile with a sleek, reflective high-shine finish. However, the bathroom floor tile boasts a classic, retro-inspired black-and-white pattern. The combination of these two color and pattern choices gives the space a unique, dramatic look that most people don’t typically see in standard bathrooms.

Combining the two styles and colorways is a fun way to mix and match tones to create a bold style that gives the bathroom a distinct yet casual vibe.

via Historiska Hem

Use Green Tile for the Floors

Although this bathroom is mainly white, the floors are a dark green tile, giving it a dramatic contrast. One of our top tips for green bathroom tiles is to choose one single component of the room to add green, leaving the rest a separate color.

Adding colored tile to a bathroom instantly gives it a completely different look, and it’s an easy upgrade. While this particular design choice isn’t overly dramatic, it still does a nice job of making the space feel warm and inviting.

Try Tile in a Vibrant Green Color

This bright, almost emerald-green tile makes the bathroom in this example stand apart. The unique color of the tile gives it a modern look, and the vanity and other accents have been painted to match.

A large skylight allows natural light to come into the space, and it helps to highlight the unusual tile color and modern design. The floor and bathtub are featured in a neutral, terracotta color that helps to showcase the contrast of the vivid green bathroom tiles on the wall and backsplash.

Install Green Tiles as an Accent Wall

Using deep, dark green tile is a bold choice for any interior design, but it’s especially dramatic in a bathroom. This space features a sleek, modern green tile all along one corner and throughout the shower except for the floor.

Installing this thin, sleek rectangular tile this way creates an accent wall, making the green-colored tile a focal point that contrasts nicely against the diamond-shaped neutral tile on the bathroom floor and the bright white sink.

via Alicia Edelman

Apply Green Bathroom Tile to Part of the Wall

Instead of green wallpaper, the homeowner chose to install dark green tiles on the wall. However, they only added it about 3/4 of the way up instead of to the ceiling.

This design works well in smaller bathrooms since it prevents the tile from “swallowing” the room entirely. Allowing the upper section of the white walls to remain helps to make this compact space look and feel just a bit larger.

via Fastighetsbyran

Bring in Luxury with Green Marble Tile

If you like the idea of green bathrooms but don’t want the tile to be too dark or bright, consider installing green-toned marble instead. In this example, the shower walls feature large, high-end marble tiles with a deep green hue and subtle swirls of white.

Black trim on the glass shower door and the choice to use black shower heads make this bathroom look sophisticated and luxurious.

via Tradition Makleri

Use Tile to Express Your Personal Style

This charming contemporary bathroom boasts a fun interplay of textures, patterns, and colors. The light grassy green tile on the shower walls adds a fresh, natural touch and pops nicely against the white tile trim.

Note how the rest of the bathroom has wood floors, but the shower features a fun and funky two-toned hexagonal tile. The homeowner also added patterned wallpaper to the hallway and a different pattern to the adjoining room, making this home a cheerful place that encourages you to have fun with interior design.

Make Tile the Star of the Show

Green is a versatile color that works well in lots of spaces, including the bathroom. Here, the deep earthy green tile on the walls gives the space a natural feel.

There are not many other features in this particular bathroom, which allows the tile to become the main attraction. Choose from several shades of green to find the one that works best for your space.

Styled by Lindholm Design, photographed by Frederic Boukari for Historiska Hem

Choose Green Tile in a Fun Shape

Not all tile has to be in a square or rectangular shape. In this bathroom, a charming light green hexagonal tile was used for the bathroom floor. It’s a great way to make a space feel fun and modern while also giving it a relaxing, spa-like feel.

The large window lets lots of natural light into the room, and the rest of the space features white to help make the green tile floors pop.

Styled by Studio Rydman for Historiska Hem

Apply Green Tile to Unique Room Features

The concept of a green tile bathroom is enticing, but you might not want to use it on every surface. Here, the homeowner installed a beautiful textured green tile over a unique feature — the oddly-shaped wall behind the toilet.

This draws the eye toward this part of the bathroom while giving it a nice look next to the metallic fixtures and simple color scheme. This example proves that tile can be a great way to add finishing touches to your bathroom.

Use Green to Make a Statement

A beautiful claw foot tub and luxurious floor tile give this bathroom a luxurious vibe. The brushed gold fixtures and gold claw feet on the tub tie the look together. However, adding the shiny bright green subway tiles brings the bathroom a touch of modern style. Blending these styles is a good way to make a statement in your own home.

via Fastighetsbyran

Incorporate Tile for a Natural Feel

Wood and stone accents give this bathroom a calming, natural vibe. The choice to install unique green tile on the shower walls brings it all together. Rather than creating a traditional bathroom with white tile, this design features a lively green tile that complements the space’s nature-inspired aesthetic.

via Frøpt

Pair vertical Green tiles with black and white flooring

The black and white chevron flooring in his modern bathroom with a black vanity and black fixtures is balanced out by the use of subtle green tiles on half of the bathroom walls. The combination of the different tiling and the two shades of green makes for a unique and elegant effect that makes the white bathtub stand out.

When beginning a master bathroom remodel, there are a lot of decisions to be made for each element of the room and endless options to choose from. One change that should not be overlooked is switching out your existing shower or tub unit for a freestanding tub.

A traditional clawfoot tub can transform the entire look and feel of your bathroom, bringing an elegant and luxurious touch to any renovation. In the list below, you can find the most stylish clawfoot tub bathroom ideas to serve as inspiration for your next remodel.

An All-White Bathroom Paired With Brown Accents and a Vintage Clawfoot Tub

This type of layout is the perfect answer for anyone who loves the look of a claw foot bathtub but would still like the functionality of a separate shower. Crisp white subway tiles surround the space, reflecting the bright sunlight streaming through the window.

The tub has detailed silver feet that echo the silver of the shower head. A rich brown wood vanity with brown towels and matching accent decor completes the look by adding depth to the room.

A Sleek, Modern Bathroom With a Deep Clawfoot Tub and Floating Sink

This clawfoot tub is placed directly in the shower area, and the depth of the tub itself allows for a relaxing bath without the need for additional space in this small bathroom.

A floating sink and toilet in the same white material as the clawfoot tub bring everything together for a cohesive look. Using stainless steel plumbing fixtures throughout maintains the theme, while mirror cabinets provide adequate bathroom storage.

A Functionality-packed Small Bathroom with a Traditional Look

This small bathroom also includes the washing machine, on quite a small surface, yet there is still space to let the clawfoot tub shine. The classic chrome fixtures and the vintage mirror with the wooden frame enhance this classic look even more. The different materials stand out powerfully against the powder pink wall color on the walls above the white tiles.

Embrace a Vintage Aesthetic by Pairing Detailed Flooring, a Clawfoot Tub, and White Subway Tiles

This small bathroom is bursting with personality and vintage charm. It perfectly melds updated fixtures with a farmhouse bathroom to create a style that’s as unique as it is lovely.

Intricate flooring is the perfect counter to the simple tile walls, and the clawfoot tub highlights both of these ideals as well. The lattice window, planked ceiling, and ladder rack in this bathroom all exude a country feel that’s sure to delight guests.

via Stadshem

A Bold Clawfoot Bathtub With Gold Hardware for a Dramatic Focal Point

For a contemporary style, pair a large clawfoot tub with a simplistic, yet elegant, design. The pale blue of the walls is echoed in the gingham pattern on the curtain, as well as the fresh flowers on the window sill.

Large white planks used for wainscoting add just a touch of visual interest around the bathroom. The pop of gold from the faucets and the dramatic cast iron feet work together to create a luxurious bathtub worthy of magazines.

Add a Touch of Mid-Century Modern Styling With a Large Clawfoot Tub and Patterned Hexagon Floor Tiles

This unique, throwback bathroom remodel is a fun take on retro design. Reddish-brown hexagonal tiles set in a honeycomb pattern with off-white counterparts create an original flooring that sets the tone for this space.

The design of the clawfoot tub itself is not the typical style we’ve seen so far, adding to the one-of-a-kind look of the bathroom. A few antique accessories on the window sill add a bit of charm, and the wooden tray stretched across the tub mimics the brown tones on the floor.

Create a Unique Space by Pairing a Deep Tub With Recessed Shelving and Shower-Height Tiling

This bathroom remodel repurposes the shower area for a deep clawfoot tub. Shower height tiles help to protect the walls against splashes, and the recessed shower caddy keeps all the most used items within easy reach.

The sandy brown paint used for the walls is reflected in the tones of the wood stool and striped towel, creating a cohesive feeling in the space. A marble checkerboard floor adds a dash of luxury to this bathroom without being overwhelming.

A Black and White Bathroom With a Clawfoot Tub to Make the Most of a Small Space

A small bathroom can pose additional challenges for a remodel. However, the lack of extra room doesn’t mean that a claw foot tub is entirely out of the question.

This classic black and white bathroom uses a smaller tub to achieve the look of a large, grand master bathroom without sacrificing space that could be better used elsewhere. You can spice up this style further by including a few pops of a bright, bold color, such as with linens or decor.

Channel Bohemian Elegance With a Compact Clawfoot Tub, Intricate Flooring, and Off-White Linens

Anyone looking for a more relaxed and airy bathroom will love this style. Off-white linens and wood accents work together to create a bathroom with a natural presence while maintaining a super clean feel.

Detailed, almost Moroccan, tile flooring adds visual interest and serves as an excellent contrast to the stark white clawfoot tub and uniform square wall tiles. Using the window sill as a storage space for essentials is both practical and decorative, enhancing the casual vibe of the bathroom.

A Blend of Modernism and Traditional Design by Pairing Industrial Touches With Natural Elements

Light wood floors, off-white walls, and black accents are a tried and true combination that stands the test of time, and this bathroom is no different. Showcasing a perfect combination of modern elements and traditional style, this bathroom provides the best of both worlds.

The large windows and high ceilings are also ideal for plant life, allowing you to bring a touch of greenery into the bathroom for a refreshing air.

Victorian-esque flooring paired with vintage fixtures and bold green tiles reminiscent of Scheele’s green transports this bathroom back to the 1800s while maintaining modern comforts.

The brassy-gold hardware found throughout pairs beautifully with the aesthetic created here, and using a sheet of glass as a barrier for the shower area helps to provide division where needed without subtracting from the room.

Simple White Walls and Minimalist Hardware for a Fresh Take on Bathroom Designs

If you love the look of a clawfoot tub but want a much more subdued bathroom, this minimalist style may be the solution. This no-frills clawfoot tub is large enough for a luxurious bathing experience but doesn’t have purely decorative elements like cast iron feet or sloped sides.

The hardware is discretely built into the wall and creates a sleek appearance that promotes calm and relaxation. A small wooden shelving unit serves as the perfect spot for storing bath essentials while maintaining the minimalist appeal.

Designing a black and white bathroom is a popular choice for renovations, helping to modernize the house and create a more modern bathroom appearance. However, there are endless options and styles to choose from, which can quickly become overwhelming and make an already large undertaking seem that much bigger.

To make the task of finding inspiration just a bit easier, you can find the most inspiring black-and-white bathroom ideas in the list below to get that custom look you’ve been dreaming of.

Make White Tiles Pop With Black Grout and a Black Ceiling

This bathroom uses a combination of different titles for a unique visual texture. Vertical white subway tile and much smaller square tile both use dark grout, resulting in a cohesive appearance.

The large, rimless mirror strengthens the sleek look of the room, while the two-faucet sink mimics the style of a double vanity without the extra bulk. Silver plumbing and natural wood and brown accents complete the look.

Bring Visual Texture into the Space by Blending Tile Patterns

Similarly to the previous photo, this bathroom pairs two different tiles for a chic visual appeal. The black hexagonal tile floor and herringbone tile walls with their contrasting grout create a unique black-and-white bathroom design.

Black shower hardware, interesting decor pieces, and fluffy white towels decorate the space while pairing well with the warm wood finish of the vanity.

Create a Dramatic Bathroom With Black Walls and White Cabinets

This dark and moody black and white bathroom incorporates multiple different materials in its design. Dark wood and exposed beams along the roof mirror the rich wood flooring.

The uncommon elongated black tile and dark grout provide a dramatic contrast to the bright white vanity that’s wall-mounted to create a floating effect. Long pull handles on the cabinets also serve to pique interest, especially when combined with the uniquely designed mirror and elegant lighting.

Embrace a Classic Look With Checkerboard Flooring and Dark Wood Accents

A black-and-white color scheme can help a small bathroom make a big impact. White tiles line the walls, creating a classic style that’s only enhanced by the checkerboard floor. The white sink and shower curtain are balanced well by the black storage cabinet, and the white toilet with a black lid is the perfect bridge between the two.

Silver hardware throughout is the right choice for this space, as is the glass divider separating the shower area from the rest of the room.

Make a Bold Statement With Unique Black and White Tile Throughout the Room

This bold master bathroom is bursting with personality and is a perfect example of how patterns can be used for a unique and dramatic effect. By continuing the design from the floor and along the walls surrounding the bathtub, the eye is immediately drawn to this area as the focal point.

Solid black paint on the adjacent wall creates contrast with the pattern without distracting from it or disturbing the theme. The unique decorative chair is an excellent finishing touch for this bathroom.

Pair White Walls and Ceiling With Black Floor Tile, Trim, and Cabinetry

For a more modern space, try blending different shapes, patterns, and materials within the same bathroom. This example photo uses square white tiles, hexagonal floor tile, a round mirror, and an abstract rug to make a visually appealing bathroom.

Black trim and cabinetry tie in well with the flooring, allowing the room to feel more balanced overall. A few accessories in a new color can bring in an interesting pop or two like the subtle copper tones do here.

Use Brass Accents to Bring an Air of Luxury to Your Black and White Bathroom

Similar in style to some of our previous modern black-and-white bathroom ideas, this photo example uses a combination of black hexagonal floor tile and white walls as the base for the space. However, it then builds upon this look for a more custom appearance by using brass hardware throughout.

This bathroom with black marble floor tiles and white walls showcases incredible natural lighting and a freestanding tub perfect for a long, relaxing bath.

Show Off Your Personality With Boldly Patterned Tiles and a Stunning Black Sink

Your black-and-white bathroom doesn’t have to be formulaic in its design. A fun and funky tile floor or walls can make all the difference. This photo example shows a one-of-a-kind dotted tile covering the walls and a stunning black sink used as both an accent piece and an anchor for the space.

Though this look works extremely well in a half bath or powder room setup, it can be even more remarkable in a larger bathroom with a black tub or shower to match.

Lean Into Simplicity With a Black and White Bathroom and Laundry Room Combo

This sleek black and white bathroom combines many of the design elements we’ve seen so far. That being said, unlike the other ideas, this example photo tackles the added complication of designing a bathroom that also has a laundry area included.

Fortunately, a black-and-white bathroom palette can easily handle this challenge. Gray and light tan accents work well in this bathroom, and a mirror with a built-in medicine cabinet can help with storage.

Make Your All-White Bathroom Pop With Minimal Touches of Black

This master bathroom also follows the trend of hexagonal black tile on the floor and white square tile on the walls but with a decently sized bathtub with a built-in shower.

Victorian-style bathroom ideas are a popular choice for homeowners looking to revitalize their historic home’s bathroom or totally transform the appearance of their modern space. One of the most common features individuals think of when it comes to a Victorian bathroom, however, is the iconic tile work.

Victorian-era tiles and accents can be the perfect finishing touches to any bathroom remodel, but finding inspiration can be a challenge. In the list below, you’ll find the most inspiring Victorian bathroom ideas to help you complete your next project.

Pair Victorian-Style Tile Patterns With Rich Colour and Art Deco Accents

White subway tiles, also called metro tiles, are one of the most popular choices when it comes to choosing tiles for a bathroom, and for good reason. These simple tiles pair beautifully with just about any design style, including Victorian-inspired designs as seen here.

Black and white tiles on the floor create a classic pattern common to Victorian style, and the rich umber paint on top of the half-wall tile paired with art deco accessories complete the look.

Use Victorian Floor Tiles and White Subway Tiles to Create a Bright and Inviting Bathroom

This bathroom is a similar style to the previous example but focuses more heavily on the stark contrast between black and white. Trimming the floor tiles with a line of black subway/metro tiles adds a layer of visual interest, while also serving as a bold separation between the two different materials.

The half wall is an efficient way to note the change from the vanity area into the shower, with added privacy. Subtle gold on the mirror and light fixture perfectly round out the space with a touch of charm.

Detailed Victorian-Style Flooring Paired With Simplistic Fixtures and Minimal Accents

This bathroom perfectly balances old and new ideals, featuring both solid white wall tile and patterned floor tiles. Additionally, the border of the floor tiles brings an extra “wow” factor to this bathroom design.

The black toilet seat helps to break up the solid white found everywhere else, serving as a great source of dimension in the room. A delicate mirror and a simple linen cloth are the perfect items to decorate this bathroom because they aren’t distracting from the focal point of the floor.

via Stadshem

Pair Boldly Coloured Square Tiles With Contemporary Fixtures and Detailed Flooring

Though Victorian tiles tend to evoke images of strictly black-and-white color schemes, bold colors aren’t off-limits. A dramatic green, blue, or even pink theme can make your bathroom that much more custom in its appearance.

This bathroom uses a deep green tile on the walls, from floor to ceiling, while the floor itself features a scaled-down version of the classic tile patterns we’ve seen already. As a bonus, the more modern vanity unit allows for plenty of storage not found in Victorian-style sinks.

Create a Dramatic and Moody Bathroom by Blending Traditional Victorian Tiles and Modern Counterparts

In a similar vein as the last example, this bathroom is in a league of its own. Though the floor features Victorian tiles and some of the accessories and hardware have an antique appearance, these are the only things in this bathroom that aren’t modern.

The resulting blend of styles is a dramatic, yet elegant, bathroom that is sure to leave guests speechless. With a different layout, the shower area could be exchanged for a claw foot bathtub for added drama.

Combine Modern Industrial Aesthetics With Victorian Bathroom Design for a Unique and Fresh Space

This chic bathroom is inspired by both traditional and contemporary industrial-style design. A unique half wall divides the space, and there are plenty of options for hanging up both fresh and dirty towels.

By using square wall tiles instead of the more common subway tile, the squares of the floor tiles are echoed, creating a cohesive look that’s much more noticeable in this bathroom. Just as with the previous example, a bath instead of a shower is an option and may be a better choice for some homeowners.

This completely fresh take on Victorian bathroom design is an elegant alternative to totally antique bathroom ideas. Showcasing a breezy color scheme, this bathroom is the perfect place to relax and unwind at the end of a long day.

A Victorian-style floor and white tiles on the walls create a sense of cleanliness, as well as peacefulness, that is sure to stand the test of time.

Pair Thick Subway Tiles and Victorian Floor Tiles With Earth Tones for a Calming Bathroom Design

These beveled subway tiles create a slightly bubbled or thick appearance that’s much more uncommon than standard flat tiles. This can bring a level of dimension and originality to your bathroom, especially when paired with Victorian tiles in a less common configuration on the floor.

The ledge above the sink in this example also creates additional storage space for frequently used items such as toothbrush holders and other toiletries or small decor.

Classic Patterned Wallpaper and Subway Tile Wainscoting in a Victorian-Style Bathroom

Nothing says “Victorian bathroom” quite like an antique claw foot bathtub. This bathroom takes the style a step further, however, with the addition of bathroom wallpaper, tile wainscoting, and patterned floor tiles.

The same colors are found throughout the room, though the materials change, which creates an environment that’s the right combination of fun and peaceful. A touch of plant life also helps achieve this balance and is always a welcome addition to any bath.

Use Victorian Bathroom Tile Ideas to Spice Up a Combination Bathroom and Laundry Room

Small combination bathrooms that mimic the layout of hallways can pose several unique design challenges. However, some houses have no choice but to add a laundry area to the bathroom due to lack of space.

But this doesn’t mean that your dreams of a Victorian bathroom are impossible to achieve. Victorian tiles on the floor and a section of wall tile are all it takes to bring a bit of that same charm into an unconventional bath. Plus, a border of chair rail is the perfect finishing touch.

Blend Victorian-Era Flooring and All-Over Marble for an Ultra-Modern Bathroom With Classic Touches

Finally, if a fully Victorian bathroom isn’t for you, but you still love some of the traditional elements we’ve looked at, this style may be the right choice for you. Discrete plumbing, sleek marble, and crisp edges make this bathroom a modern dream, while the inclusion of Victorian-style floor tiles provides an elegant, yet understated, touch.

This bathroom design also incorporates many of the features we’ve seen previously in a way that’s both visually appealing and functional.

Limestone is a sedimentary rock that is formed when seashells, coral, and other marine debris accumulate over millions of years. This durable natural stone is a popular choice for tile and other interior finishes. However, it is a porous stone so it needs to be sealed for proper care and maintenance. If you’re thinking of changing the look of your bathroom, limestone can transform this space in a major way.

From chic limestone tiles on the bathroom floor to sleek stone shower walls, these limestone bathroom ideas will inspire you to add a natural, luxurious touch to any space. Check out these beautiful, creative concepts to help you get excited about your next bathroom renovation.

Large Limestone Wall Tiles Lend a Modern Vibe

In this bathroom, the designer chose to apply large limestone tiles to the wall. The oversized shape and sleek design give the space a decidedly modern, luxe style and a high-end aesthetic.

Note how the vanity top material is a bit different in terms of color and texture. This creates a visually stunning juxtaposition that breaks up the room so it’s elegant rather than monotone.

via Tradition Makleri

Make it Match with Similar Tile Throughout

For this design, the limestone tiles cover the walls and the floors, and they also surround the sink for a sleek, cohesive look. Installing the same tile throughout the bathroom gives this space a feeling of cohesion and warmth.

The use of matte black fixtures and a matte black mirror helps to make the tile pop and adds a nice visual contrast.

Styled by Gärde, photographed by Mia Borgelin for Historiska Hem

Incorporate Natural Materials

While limestone itself is a natural material, adding other natural materials gives a bathroom a welcoming, earthy feel. For this design, light brown wood was chosen for the vanity and to frame the large mirror.

The use of woven rattan baskets adds convenient storage, and they help to warm things up so the sleek, shiny surface of the limestone doesn’t feel too cold.

Go For the Gray

Limestone tile comes in a wide range of colors, and gray is a great choice for modern bathroom designs. The large tile in this space features unique shades of gray throughout that give it a sleek, contemporary look.

Adding the same tile to the shower ceiling not only protects it but also makes the shower look and feel much more luxurious. A “floating” toilet keeps it off the floor and allows the limestone to shine.

via Entrance Makleri

Use Limestone Tile as an Accent

While limestone is mostly found throughout this bathroom, a piece is used as a backsplash accent on one wall. A wide strip of limestone tile placed just underneath the mirror and behind the sink brings a touch of texture to the room.

When added against the stark white wall, this section of tile stands out and gives the bathroom a beautiful finishing touch. The designer could have chosen not to include it here, but adding it helps to tie the bathroom together quite nicely.

Update a Guest Bath with Limestone

Other stones like granite and travertine also look lovely in bathrooms, but limestone has a very distinct appeal. You can use it as flooring and wall tiles to finish a guest bathroom and give the space a nice, luxurious touch.

The skylight in this particular space adds a bath of natural light that shines directly onto the limestone below for a sleek, reflective finish that makes using limestone an excellent choice here.

Go Dark and Earthy

Darker-colored stone was used in this bathroom for a rustic, earthy environment. The dark gray color and large square limestone tile make this an interesting design choice. Large exposed wood beams add a ton of drama to this unique master bath.

A large, raw chunk of stone serves as a step into the soaker tub for a truly unique finishing touch. Fortunately, two large windows in this bathroom bring in natural light so it doesn’t feel too dark and brooding.

Create a Two-Toned Bathroom with Different Stone Colors

Lighter-colored limestone tile adorns the floors, shower, and walls in this sleek modern bathroom. Meanwhile, a much darker black and white stone tops the vanity and sink to complement the black cabinet.

While this bathroom has mostly ivory and white features, the addition of black here and there gives it a bold, two-toned look. Note how the black fixtures, faucets, and accents add to the dramatic visual contrast.

Use Limestone Tile as Shower Shelving

This sleek limestone shower has a modern, monochromatic look. Sections of the same tile were also added to one corner of the shower to serve as handy shelves.

Instead of using a cheap-looking, traditional shower caddy, the homeowner chose to install tile for shelving so that everything looks neater and more uniform. This is also a great option for those with small spaces who need extra storage.

Go Bold with Big Tiles

The oversized rectangle limestone tiles in this bathroom help to make a strong statement. A portion of the wall is recessed, and white tile was installed here for a storage shelf and a beautiful touch of contrasting color.

The vanity top is also a different color stone featured in black and white for a playful pop. Not how a small strip of that same black tile was also added to the bottom of the white stone shelf to give it a nice tie-in.

Have Fun With the Details

The tiles in this bathroom are beautiful, but it’s the many other details that make this space so special. Wood cabinets and a matching wood vanity warm things up and give the room a welcoming, calming, spa-like feel.

Integrated LED lighting around the large mirror isn’t just a convenient feature — it also gives the bathroom a warm glow and a modern touch. Double sinks feature the same limestone tile to match, which helps to make this bathroom a beautiful, well-designed space.

Herringbone tile is not actually a type of tile, but rather a pattern.

Try Contrasting Tile Colors to Create a Unique Bathroom With Timeless Appeal

Use Elongated Ceramic Tiles in a Spacious, Elegant Bathroom

This exceptional bathroom boasts a white soaker tub and a dramatic contemporary glass light fixture that brings it an elegant touch. The large window pulls a lot of natural light into the room, but it’s the elongated herringbone tiles that really stand out.

Using larger tiles like these works well in spacious bathrooms since you have more room to work with. Note that the designer didn’t just use the tiles for the floor, they also installed it up to the ceiling on the walls, too.

Dark-Colored Herringbone Tiles Create a Bold and Dramatic Bathroom

This bathroom boasts a rich color palette including shades of deep red, navy blue, and dark gray.

A Stunning Jade-Toned Herringbone Tile Showcases a Uniquely Shaped Space

A curved cove creates the shower in this bathroom and makes it a truly uniquely shaped space. The use of jade-toned herringbone tiles helps to highlight this area well and makes it stand out against the flat white walls.

Instead of choosing a standard white tile for the shower area, the luscious jade green color adds more depth and excitement to the room while also shining the spotlight on the unusual silhouette.

Add a Subtle, Mini Herringbone Pattern to a Chic White Marble Bathroom

White marble nearly covers every inch of this chic bathroom from the floors and ceiling to the sink and shower. Large rectangular marble tile slabs adorn the walls, and the shower floor features smaller matching square marble tiles.

However, the mini herringbone pattern on the shower walls brings this stylish bathroom a fun touch without going overboard. Finishes of brushed gold on the shower fixture, faucet, and hardware lend an air of elegance to this already beautiful space.

Designing a modern bathroom is easy with the incorporation of a few key design features. If you’re looking for new ways to give your bathing space an upgrade, installing black bathroom fixtures is a wise choice.

This classic color works well with virtually any design style, making it a smart option for both new and existing bathrooms. Adding black elements to a bathroom design will help you achieve a modern and contrasting look for a unique effect.

In the list below, you can find the most inspiring contrasting ideas featuring different bathrooms with black fixtures to help you get inspired to create a truly stunning bathroom design. Read on for some ideas about how to incorporate black into your next bathroom project.

Use Matte Black Bathroom Fixtures with White Marble

A white bathroom is nice, but installing matte black fixtures helps to give this space a bold contrast. The large rainfall showerhead, linear drain, faucet handle, and wand feature a modern matte black hue that adds to the contemporary vibe.

Marble is a key part of any contemporary bathroom, yet by combining white marble bathroom tiles with matte black fixtures you allow for contrast to elevate your bathroom design. Add a practical shower niche into your shower walls for a minimal way to store your soaps to create a truly contemporary look.

Only Use Black for Hardware and Faucets

An overhead skylight provides a perfect reading light for relaxing in the tub in this luxurious space. Beige stone walls and flooring give this bathroom a chic, contemporary monochromatic touch.

By installing matte black accents in the form of towel holders, faucets, and a toilet paper holder, the designer has incorporated a fun contrast with a modern twist. While the matte black accents add a few subtle tints of contrast, the white freestanding tub brightens up the material palette of this gorgeous, modern space.

Use Black Fixtures to Bring Modern Style to a Rustic Space

This unique bathroom design features a blend of modern and rustic elements like a large stone bathtub step and raw wood trim near the ceiling.

A black handrail, showerhead, and tub faucet are subtle yet dramatic in this unusual space. And while the bathroom features dark walls, it still has plenty of natural light through the use of windows, making it a cozy and luxe bathing space.

In a bathroom with dark tile like this one, you can use a black sink, a black clawfoot tub, or black fixtures to achieve a tone-on-tone effect rather than adding contrast.

via Erik Olsson

Make Black Accents the Focal Point

Gray concrete bathroom walls and gray stone tile flooring make this bathroom a classic monochromatic space. However, the use of black accents like a black wall mirror, towel rod, black bathroom faucets, and black framing on the glass shower door draws the eye toward each element.

Using black here gives the bathroom a stunning aesthetic and due to the solid gray on the walls and floors, it allows the black accents to become the star of the show. Instead of a white vanity, a floating shelf and sink free up floor space to make the bathroom look larger.

Note that in this bathroom design, even the plumbing underneath the sink is black to match the look of the space.

Create a Modern Black and White Bathroom

Nothing pairs quite as well as black and white together. In this bathroom, the designer used white subway tile from the floor to the ceiling and marble hexagonal tile on the floors for a stylish aesthetic.

Instead of black walls, they installed a high-end black showerhead and black shower door trim to turn this small bathroom into a chic, modern space. The grey storage cabinet and vanity soften the contrast between the matte black accents and white elements in the room.

Use Black Bathroom Accessories for a Modern Feel

In this bathroom, slender white tile on the half-shower walls creates straight lines for a crisp, contemporary touch. Black grout and black bathroom accessories including the showerhead and a small shelf elevate the space.

The designer chose to add some black paint on the walls above the tile, which helps to tie it all together for a stylish yet simple aesthetic.

Keep it Understated

If you adore the idea of a minimalist bathroom design, this simple design option works quite well. The monochromatic color of the concrete walls and floors is soothing, while wooden slats on the ceiling bring it a slightly rustic touch.

Only a few black components have been added, but they’re just enough to give this stylish bathroom the right amount of contrast. These matte black elements add a subtle contrast without taking attention away from the stunning exposed wooden ceiling.

Incorporate Black as Much as Possible

In this bathroom, black and white square floor tiles work beautifully with the white walls accented with black grout. Not only is black added in these subtle ways but it’s also found throughout the bathroom through the white vessel sink with a black vanity cabinet, matte black faucets, and a chick black showerhead.

A frosted glass shower door adds privacy, and this bathroom includes a washer and dryer for all-in-one convenience.

Keep Your Bathroom Renovation Simple

In this bathroom, the neutral tones give the space a warm, inviting feel over bright colors that could feel overwhelming. Solid stone shower wall tile and a glass enclosure lend it an elegant ambiance while the unique built-in niche with LED light fixtures adds convenience and versatility.

Everything is finished with a stylish matte black showerhead and wand, shower door hardware, niche trim, and faucet handle for a subtle pop of contrast.

Get Bold with a Black Bathroom Sink

A black bathroom sink and matching vanity add dramatic flair to this casual family bathroom. The soft bulb behind the round wall mirror gives the design a splash of modern style and added functionality.

Black shower door hardware, a black faucet, a black showerhead, and black wall shelves in the tub and shower combo help to tie the theme of using black fixtures together in perfect harmony. The black sink blends in with the black vanity and the black faucet for a cohesive effect in the space.

Use Black and Gray for a Trendy Combo

Black and gray go together beautifully like in the design of this new bathroom style. The use of gray and black brings this chic space a bold, modern feel.

Black trim on the transom window, the shower door, and matte black fixtures blend beautifully with the black vanity. A black countertop with a white bathroom sink helps to lighten things up just a bit for a light, bright bathing space.

Incorporate Ultra-Modern Features for a Bold Bathroom

In the bathroom below, the color black is used to create an ultra-modern space thanks to a plethora of unique features. Black trim around the mirror’s light fixtures complements the black towel rack and floating shelves mounted to the wall.

You could hang white or black linens here depending on the mood. A sleek Japanese-style soaker tub lends an elegant aesthetic to this master bathroom, and the marbled stone countertop gives it a fun pop instead of a solid, traditional black.

Spruce Up an Existing Vanity with Black Fixtures

This bathroom is an excellent example of how to incorporate pops of black into an existing design. The black cage-style sconce lights bring it an industrial element, while the black faucet handle and black cabinet hardware complement each other nicely, especially against the more traditional white cabinets.

Adding the light fixtures adds a new focal point while making the bathroom brighter and more functional overall. Instead of a double sink, this bathroom offers a long countertop for plenty of storage and space to prep for the day ahead.

Incorporate Black to Highlight Details

Here, the color black is used to create a visual line between the shower trim and other features. The dark color of the showerhead looks elegant against the gray and white marbled tile of the shower walls and floor.

Since this bathroom includes a toilet right next to the shower, black is also used to create a convenient shelf. Lastly, the black toilet flusher ties everything together perfectly.

Using marble in the design of your home instantly provides a feeling of ultimate luxury. With so many different colors, unique patterns, and tile shapes to play with, you can easily create visual interest as well as a luxurious atmosphere in any room of the home. That being said, marble is naturally water resistant, making it the perfect choice for bathrooms.

If you are thinking of using marble in your bathroom renovation, have a look at the list below. You can find the most inspiring marble bathroom ideas to help you create the bathroom design of your dreams.

All Over Gray Marble Bathroom With Cream Accents

One of the most eye-catching marble bathroom ideas is combining marble countertops with matching marble walls and floors. In this specific take on the trend, the color palette is very monochrome with the medium gray marble which allows for a cohesive look.

To complete the style, an off-white curtain is paired with smaller accessories in neutral tones for added warmth.

Bright White All-Marble Bathroom

For those looking for white marble bathroom ideas, try pairing white marble with light gray veining and white walls, accents, and fixtures. This modern marble bathroom idea creates a clean, polished look that’s perfect for smaller spaces.

In addition, the marble shower walls that continue into wainscoting provide a sleek feel that plays with the existing wall space.

Uniquely Patterned White Marble Bathroom

As mentioned previously, marble comes in a wide variety of patterns. This makes the design possibilities endless, especially when it comes to marble bathroom walls. This is a very simple, yet modern bathroom design that uses large marble tile pieces across both the walls and floor to maximize the impact of the pattern.

You can also add a bit of contrast to the space by including touches of black or other dark tones within your marble tile bathroom.

Dark Gray Modern Marble Bathroom With Industrial Touches

If you’re looking for marble bathroom ideas that have a dramatic impact, this interior design style is for you. The gray walls created from unique marble tiles are complemented by the black metal vanity which adds a slight industrial feel.

The freestanding tub is placed at center stage, the bright white creating a focal point without much effort. The dramatic nature of this design is balanced perfectly by the minimalist accessories, preventing the room from becoming overwhelming when combined with the texture.

The ceiling height in this space makes it one of the most impressive marble tile bathroom ideas on the list.

Black Marble Shower Paired With White Subway Tile

To make a more subtle statement with your marble tile bathroom ideas, try pairing a black marble shower with large white subway tile. This design takes some of the other marble bathroom ideas and approaches the use of marble differently by treating it as an accent instead of the main event.

The naturally high contrast between the black and white tiles is pleasing to the eye while combining modern luxury and classic decor ideals.

You don’t have to rely on creating a marble wall, marble vanity, or marble shower to have a touch of luxury in your home. The simple use of tile marble on the floor is a common and more subtle way to achieve a “marble bathroom” feel. You can use the same design principles of contrast by pairing black marble with a white tile, such as subway tile, to create a timeless look. The addition of a modern tub and fixtures also helps to bring everything together.

Small Marble Tiles in Mixed Shades and Patterns

For those who want the floor-to-ceiling marble design but with a bit of extra personality, pairing marble tile in different shapes and colors may be the answer. In this bathroom, the marble floor in the shower area ties into the whiter shade of the marble vanity top while adding further contrast through the use of a chevron pattern.

This combined with the brassy gold fixtures throughout the space creates a cohesive color scheme that’s very sleek and stylish.

via Alicia Edelman

Marble Tile With Sandy Tones and Brown Shades

So far, we’ve focused mainly on marble bathroom ideas that rest heavily on marble in shades of gray, white, and black. However, that are other, less common shades of marble available that aren’t often used in bathrooms. For example, choosing a marble that has more of a sandy tone allows you to play with wood and brown accents in a way that you wouldn’t have been able to before.

via Historiska Hem

Large Marble Tiles Through the Entire Bathroom

One other unique way to maximize a marble bathroom is by continuing the same type of large tiles from the marble floors, up the wall to the ceiling, and across plumbing fixtures.

This design style creates a stunning marble sink that’s guaranteed to be one-of-a-kind. This works well in both a compact space or a more spacious bathroom, especially when used in conjunction with a glass shower door as this maximizes the visual space.

via Sjoman Frisk

Bright White Floor to Ceiling Marble With White and Neutral Decor

If you enjoy bright spaces and your bathroom has a lot of natural light, you can elevate the effect by using a white marble floor in conjunction with white marble walls, a white vanity, and white or neutral accent pieces. In addition, mirrored medicine cabinets also reflect the natural light, brightening the space even more.

via Simon Crest

White Marble Bathroom With Dark Wood Cabinetry

Anyone looking for a fresh take on the common marble bathroom ideas of pairing white marble with black or dark brown accents will love this bathroom. This design takes the all-marble bathroom trend and breaks up the white with a black wood vanity face and matching faucet. The subtle appearance of the wood grain also adds depth to the space by mixing textures.

Uniquely Patterned Marble Tiles With Medium Brown Accents

If you’ve found a bold marble pattern that you love, but are unsure how to harness it in your bathroom, this is the design idea for you. Continue the unique pattern across the space by using it to create a marble floor and wall as well as a marble vanity.

This can easily produce an intensity in the bathroom, so to balance it out, you’ll want to use more neutral accents such as items in a medium brown, wicker texture.

Mixed Marble With Other Patterns, Materials, and Colors

As mentioned previously, we can sometimes produce an eye-catching design by using marble accents or mixing marble with other materials and colors. In this bathroom idea, you can a combination of two popular materials used in modern bathrooms: marble and stone. This idea pairs a marble vanity with dark gray stone walls which allows both materials to stand out in their way.

Light Gray Marble Bathroom With Black Accents

In this large marble tile bathroom, the popular gray marble pattern used along both the shower wall and floor continues outside of the shower space as we’ve seen in other designs. Unlike other designs, however, this bathroom utilizes solid black fixtures, accents, and trim for a bold touch. The small strip of bare white wall above the marble balances out with the solid white of the toilet to maximize the effect.

White Marble Tile Wainscoting With Gray Accents

In the last of our marble bathroom ideas, white marble tile with gray veining is being used as a material for wainscoting while the rest of the wall is a gentle, solid white. The sleek straight lines of the tile are echoed throughout the other elements in the room with the circular mirror contrasting beautifully. The dark smooth grey of the vanity topped by the white sink works well to pull each element together in a complete look.

White Marble on the Walls and Window Sill paired with Gray Stone Flooring

For an integrated look, the white marble on the walls in this bathroom is used on the window sill as well. This full marble look has a very impressive effect in the space and the marble sink on the vanity finishes things off nicely.

The gray stone flooring adds a beautiful contrast to all the white in this bathroom space.

This high-end bathroom features gorgeous white marble wall and floor tiles covering much of the space. The focal point in this bathroom, however, is the wide marble sink paired with a beautiful three-panel mirror and a gold faucet.

A burgundy-red marble Bathroom pairs with a simple Beige Tile

This is one of the more impressive marble bathrooms on the list, as the owners chose a burgundy-red marble variety for the renovation. The marble slab underneath the double vanity is of a different species, yet it also has some of the same beautiful warm tones. The marble look is balanced out by using simple beige tiles and black fixtures in the rest of the design.

When it comes to designing a clean, modern bathroom, subway tile is an excellent element that will give this space a classic look. These rectangular-shaped tiles are named after the tiles you see in the New York City subway system, which were first installed in 1904.

Most subway tiles are made of ceramic, but you’ll also find them made of other materials including porcelain, stone, and glass. Go for a bright white subway tile to create a clean look, opt for color to add a unique touch, or create a more dramatic look with a dark subway tile.

If you’re looking for some new inspiration for your next bathroom remodel, check out these inspiring subway tile bathroom ideas to help you create the perfect space.

A Floor-to-Ceiling Subway Tile Bathroom

In this bathroom, the subway tiles are installed from the floor to the top edge of the ceiling. This vertical stack pattern gives the bathroom a sleek yet timeless look and feel that carries the design through the entire space.

Note how the black and white checkerboard floor gives this bathroom a fun pop of contrast and different texture so it doesn’t look too overdone. This black-and-white bathroom look is balanced out by textiles and accessories in natural tones.

White Subway Tile with Black Accents

This bathroom boasts traditional white subway tile on the walls, while bold black accents give the space some added drama. The black windowpane glass shower door, black showerhead, and black vanity with a white top placed next to a black linen cabinet pop out against the tile’s classic white color.

The floor also features hexagonal white tiles, bringing this bathroom a fresh, modern finishing touch.

Vertical Subway Tile Creates Visual Interest

In a classic subway tile bathroom, the tile is installed horizontally. However, in this room, the designer chose to install the tile in a vertical position instead. This option is great for a powder room or smaller bathroom since it can help to make the space look larger.

Smaller white square tiles added to the floor draw the eye upward so that you’re focused on the room as a whole. Note that there is no vanity in this bathroom, which helps to free up floor space, making it look larger, too.

Black Grout Lines Make Subway Tile Pop

The use of black grout can help make white subway tiles stand out. Not only did the designer use black grout in this tile bathroom, but they also installed some of the tiles vertically behind the bathtub and shower walls.

The tiles are also installed around the edges of the tub and cabinets to give the space a cohesive interior design.

Try a Mixture of Materials

With its sharply angled walls, this unique bathroom features two different subway tile materials. The tile on the walls appears to be made of ceramic, while the same shape and size tile on the floor appears to be made of marble.

Installing marble tile adds an elegant and natural element to the bathroom. In this case, the combination brings the bathroom design a nice contrast for both the look and overall feel of the space and highlights the beautiful modern soaker tub.

via Historiska Hem

Install Subway Tile Along a Portion of the Wall to Add Elegance

The white subway tile in this bathroom is installed along a section of the wall, but it doesn’t go all the way to the ceiling. This design adds a wainscotting-like touch, while the top half of the room features a classic, neutral paint color.

The interior designer added a thin line of trim along the very top of the subway tile and a wider section along the floor to finish it off. Small black and white floor tile adds even more dramatic flair.

via Cupboard and Goods

Use White Grout for a Fresh, Clean Look

White tile in any shape makes a bathroom feel bright and vibrant. Here, the interior designers opted for white grout between the subway tile so everything looks nice and cohesive throughout the room.

The addition of more traditional black and white floors makes for a classic choice that gives this bathroom an air of elegance and simplicity. A lovely crystal chandelier installed in front of the window adds a chic and luxurious finishing touch.

via Entrance Makleri

Play with Patterns

In this bathroom, the classic white subway tile on the walls gives the bathroom a clean and polished look. A gray marble tub deck brings the room a sophisticated element, but it’s the use of bold black and off-white diamond-shaped tiles on the shower floor that gives it a contemporary touch.

The mixture of patterns here makes the bathroom more interesting, and the window adds natural light that highlights the playful design choice.

Install Darker Flooring to Ground the Room

The large white subway tile here is certainly timeless, but it’s the darker-colored, larger floor tile that helps to ground the space.

Note how almost every element here is white, like the vanity and walls, but the floor is featured in a much deeper, darker hue. The choice to install dark charcoal gray floor tile brings the bathroom a bold, two-toned look.

styled by Emma Fisher, photographed by Henrik Linden, via Alvhem

Get Creative with Funky Elements

This modern subway tile bathroom features smaller wall tiles with a slightly raised beveled edge for added character. The swirling green and white large marble floor tiles give this bathroom a funky, eclectic aesthetic.

Note that the clawfoot tub, floating vanity, and upper half of the room are white, while the subway tile has a slightly more ivory or putty tone. Compared to a classic subway tile, both the size and color tone of the tile add a unique touch to the space.

Styled by Anna Van Keppel, photographed by Mia Borgelin, for sale via Historiska Hem

Install Subway Tile at Different Heights

Subway tile makes the ideal backdrop for a shower, but here, the designer chose to add it to the walls at varying heights. The tile covers most of the wall height inside the shower, but it’s slightly lower along another edge of the bathroom.

Since this bathroom has a clear glass shower door, opting to install the subway tile a bit lower outside of the shower helps to separate the space. The black floor tile also adds a nice dramatic contrast against the stark white walls.

Blend Natural with Modern Materials

Ceramic subway tile adds a modern component to a bathroom, but here, the designer opted to add some wood trim to the upper half of the space. This creates a gorgeous juxtaposition of materials by blending natural elements with modern ones.

A mixture of white, black, and gray also gives this bathroom a contemporary touch, and the modern light fixtures work nicely with the large wood ceiling beams for an eye-catching blend of old and new.

via Kvänum

Use Subway Tile to Frame a Section of the Bathroom

While many bathrooms use this classic tile to cover the walls or a shower or tub enclosure, here, it’s used to frame out the vanity area. The classic white subway tile was installed on a recessed part of the wall that holds the bathroom mirrors, lights, and double vanity.

In the rest of the room, you’ll find gray-colored wood wall trim that matches perfectly with the gray floors and vanity, while the top of the vanity also features the same white color as the tile.

via Kvänum

Mix Patterns for a Playful Element

The same type of subway tile was used throughout the entire bathroom here, however, the floor tile was installed in a chic herringbone pattern. Aside from the unique combination of floor versus wall patterns, this subway tile is much narrower than its classic counterparts.

The choice to use thinner subway tile gives this bathroom a decidedly modern, updated aesthetic. Since all of the tile is the same color, it allows the sleek bathroom fixtures to stand out.

Go Big and Bold

Large white beveled subway tile is installed throughout this space, including on the bathroom walls, the wall of the laundry cubby area, and around the toilet. The bright white tile gives this bathroom a fresh, airy feel while the beveled edges bring it a splash of bold modern texture.

Notice how the grout lines are barely visible, which allows the unique style of this subway tile to be the star of the show.

Not all subway tile has to be white. For example, this bathroom features a lively green subway tile in the shower on the walls, ceiling, and shower floor. The rest of the room is lighter in color, allowing the shower to stand out while giving it a playful pop of color for a fun and funky feel.

The green subway tile is installed vertically on the shower walls to help make it look a bit larger.

Use Subway Tile to Highlight Other Features

White is an excellent color to help draw attention to more distinctive features in a room. For example, this bathroom features white subway tile all over the walls, which helps to draw attention to the sleek gold accents including wall hooks, vanity hardware, and gold bathroom fixtures.

The white subway tile bathroom is paired with intricate detailing in the pattern on the bathroom floor, which provides the space with a characterful look.

Bring Modern and Classic Elements Together

This bathroom boasts white subway tile around the edges of the wall for a subtle modern touch. The upper portion of the wall is painted in a neutral putty color that gives it a classic element. Combining these two accents gives the bathroom a nice mixture of slightly modern and traditional elements.

Get Dramatic with Darker Hues

If you need more inspiration, consider going darker. Here, shiny gray vertical subway tile with bright white grout adds a fantastic component to this contemporary bathroom. Black accents featured on the mirrors, shower door trim, and hardware tie everything together.

The white pedestal sink brings a pop of contrast, and the matching gray backsplash showcases gray tile trim that helps to give the bathroom a beautiful finish. Go for black subway tile if you want the contrasting effect even stronger.

Gold is a classic metal that can elevate any space by adding a pop of color and personality. The popularity of gold within the home has ebbed and flowed over the decades. That being said, when done correctly, gold hardware can be used to create a timeless space that never goes out of fashion.

It can sometimes be a challenge to match gold bathroom fixtures with a contemporary bathroom style and they need the right material to create a wonderful balance.

In the list below, you can find my favorite gold bathroom ideas, designed to inspire your next remodel.

Dark concrete walls and Brown Accents With Dark Gold Fixtures

Gold is a bold color by nature. One way to harness it and avoid having it overpower a chic bathroom design is to pair it with dark, earthy colors.

Dark concrete bathroom walls easily contrast with the smooth, flashy appearance of gold, toning it down for a more reserved but bold look.

For more dimension, add medium to dark natural wood accents. The browns in the wood will act as a touch point between the coldness of the dark concrete and the bright warmth of the gold hardware.

Cool Gray Walls With Light Brown Accents and Subdued Gold Fixtures

If the dark gray walls are a bit too much for you but you like the feel of the space, you may prefer large gray tiles paired with light brown and white accents and more subdued tones of gold.

This combination creates an airier, lighter feel than the darker gray but keeps the gold fixtures subtle. The aged brass coloring of the shower head and other hardware almost blends in, providing a calming and cohesive feel to the space.

White Subway Tiles and Classic Gold Fixtures

For those looking to place the gold hardware center stage, a white and gold bathroom is a timeless choice. This pairing calls upon the feel of the Gilded Age with its white tiles, exposed plumbing, and elegant gold mirror, but adds a touch of modernity with the large gold shower head and glass partitions.

The combination is striking, blending traditional aesthetics with a touch of luxury. This is a simple way to elevate and add your personality to white bathrooms without a complete redesign of the space.

Neutrals and Floral Prints With Polished Gold Fixtures

If you’re looking to mute the gold fixtures but maintain a bright space, try pairing gold with light, neutral colors and a splash of monochromatic, earthy floral print.

This combination with the addition of natural light creates a warm, inviting space that residents will enjoy and guests will find comfort in. The mirror with the thin gold frame and the wire-framed sink also work together to give the appearance of spaciousness in a small bathroom with a half-tile wall.

Light Gray Marble With Brushed Gold Fixtures

For a chic, modern white bathroom, a monochrome mix of a white vanity, white marble surface, and light gray marble tiling is ideal. Pair this with gold handles and plumbing fixtures that have an antique brass finish to add a bit of flare that isn’t too flashy.

This is a style that won’t go out of fashion any time soon. But if you decide to change up the look of the bathroom years down the road, the subtle touches of gold can quickly and easily be switched out for silver or other metals to better suit your evolving style.

Bright White Mixed Materials With Brushed Gold Fixtures

Anyone wanting a simple, modern powder room can’t go wrong with a combination of bright white cabinetry and porcelain with white marble tiling. This simple design is not quite minimalist but still offers a sleek and clean look.

The marble wainscoting is an eye-catching way to break up the plain white walls while the hidden cabinet hardware completes the chic look. Adding in some pops of brushed gold and brass fixtures brings a touch of elegance to an otherwise white bathroom.

Large, Dark Stone Titles With Minimal Gold Accents

Alternatively, you can shy away from a white bathroom with gold fixtures altogether and lean into a darker look. Making a deep, cool gray stone the dominant color can transform a plain, outdated bathroom into a statement.

This monochrome look can be completed with minimal decorations and just a couple of gold accessories. You can choose a deep gold that’s nearly brass or a brighter, more polished gold depending on your personal style. Both choices can add a slightly different impression to the overall space, maintaining the boldness in different ways.

White Subway Tiles With Black Accents and Polished Gold Fixtures

For a contemporary bathroom with gold fixtures, a combination of black and white is the perfect choice. White subway tiles with black grout go with nearly any type of decor, allowing for endless personalization.

Adding an accent wall of white tiles in a different pattern to the rest of the room provides a bit of depth to the space while a frame-less, round mirror completes the sleek look. Polished white gold hardware and some greenery is a fun way to put everything together in a way that’s both modern and timeless.

Dark Wood Statement Pieces With Dark Gold Hardware

If you’d like a bold look without changing every surface to a dark color, a single dark wood statement piece is the perfect option. This allows for a focal point in the room, drawing in the eye and providing a level of warmth to the traditionally cold bathroom.

The dark gold sconces, faucet, and shower head in this bathroom in particular balance out the bold, chocolate vanity while the lighter flooring, walls, countertop, and toilet ensure that the dark colors aren’t overpowering. A glass shower partition and large, frame-less mirror finish off this slightly industrial look.

White and Black With Dark, Aged Gold Hardware

Similar to the previous idea, this bathroom features a statement piece. However, this particular room adds a twist that isn’t often seen: black cabinetry. Black is most often used as an accent color to a room, typically on items that you don’t want to stand out such as small hardware. In other cases, it may be used in flooring to add class and depth.

When used as the main color of one of the biggest parts of a room, it makes a bold object stand out even more. Paired with the ageless herringbone pattern on the walls and bronzed gold hardware, the result is a modern bathroom with a hint of mid-century modern styling.

White and Cream Minimalist Space With Minor Gold Accents

Anyone searching for a clean, organized feel to their bathroom can’t go wrong with a minimalist design in white and cream. Placing a solid white tub in a prominent position and removing opportunities for clutter to gather leaves many with a sense of calm and peacefulness.

This is the perfect mix for those who like to use their bathroom as a place to relax and unwind away from the stressors of daily life. Include a few touches of gold to add to the elegance of the space overall without adding unnecessary distractions.

Unique Shapes Paired With Muted Gold Hardware

If you want to show a touch of personality while sticking with white as the dominant color and without introducing a dark color to the mix, muted gold fixtures and a matching statement mirror are the way to go.

This is a fresh take on the standard white and gold bathroom that keeps the simple white vanity and gold hardware while including a unique mirror with a gold frame to pull it all together. The key to this specific look is to choose a shade of gold that isn’t dramatic or overpowering. To add some warmth, decorate with some fun accessories in neutral, earthy tones.

All-white Bathroom With Dark Floors and Gold Hardware

This new take on an all-white bathroom breaks up the monotony with a bold, black marble floor and hints of gold throughout. White square tiled walls, bright lighting, and a frame-less mirror work together to make a small white bathroom appear larger than it is.

This is ideal for anyone who wants to make the most out of their space. The brushed gold fixtures are the perfect accent pieces to bridge the gap between the intense black of the marble and the sterile white of the tile.

Sandstone Tiles and Neutral Accessories With Brassy Gold Fixtures

To incorporate a natural yet modern feeling into your bathroom, try pairing gold hardware with sandstone tiles. The neutral tan tones found in sandstone mesh well with duller, brassy gold fixtures and can take your bathroom a step further than many other predominantly white and gold bathroom combinations.

This is especially true in small spaces where you only have a limited number of surfaces to work with. For an extra layer of dimension, add touches of other earth tones such as brown and bronze. You can also add a decoration or two in a dark, dramatic black for a pop of personality.

Mixed Grays and Stone Textures With Brushed Gold Hardware

In search of a little fun and creativity in your bathroom? Try playing with different materials and tones of the same color. For instance, a light gray stone combined with a dark gray marble is a pairing not often seen though they work well together.

Throwing in some dark gold fixtures and black and gold sconces provides a bit of fun in the space. You can even go a step further by including some dark brown wood accents. The golden tones of wood will play into the gold hardware and pull the bathroom together without any dramatic changes. For additional style, add a round mirror to balance the sharp, straight edges found throughout the rest of the room.

Textured Accent Wall and Sink With Aged Gold Hardware

Modern and minimal without being spartan, this bathroom is an inspiration to anyone looking to experiment with pattern and texture by dipping their toe in. The gentle speckled pattern travels down the single wall and across the floor, including the sink so as not to create a jarring shift to a stark white surface.

The touches of aged gold found on the hardware and plumbing mesh well with the textured surfaces to create a unique look that isn’t often seen in bathrooms with gold hardware.

Bright White Bathroom With Black and Gold Accents

A stunning take on a classic look, combining a solid black floor and accents with solid white walls and gold fixtures results in a bathroom that will never go out of style. The slightly industrial look of the hardware plays well with the pure white and deep black.

At the same time, the blend of both a modern shower head and faucet design with the older design of the curtain rod and mirror ensures that this room won’t need to be updated any time soon.

White Marble and Brown Accents With Coppery Gold Fixtures

A copper-toned gold in the bathroom can seem difficult to make work at first glance. However, thanks to the brown undertones of this shade of gold, any medium to light brown accessories can tie everything together.

A white modern bathtub and a white marble floor or wall (or both!) allow these colors to stand out without minimizing the overall look of the room.

A narrow bathroom with gold fixtures and green marble flooring

The beautiful texture of the green marble flooring of the narrow bathroom is complemented by white tile walls. In addition natural wood tones, and brass fixtures add a beautiful warmth. These different warm-tone materials balance the green tones of the floor and make the small bathroom cozy and inviting.
