5 Ideas That Will Elevate a Bathroom’s Design

The Pulp team is known for having a unique viewpoint that combines luxury design and a flair for the unexpected. When we design a space, we think way out of the box to give our clients personal spaces that are stunning and different. Every room deserves that, even the ultra-utilitarian bathroom. Rather than just thinking of the usual plumbing and tile, there are ways to really elevate a bathroom’s design into a functional and fabulous space. Here are 5 of our top pro tips!

1. Custom Design

The best way to get a bathroom that functions exactly the way you want it to, and is a design that you won’t see anywhere else, is through custom details, like you see in the Dallas bathroom above. That can be tile that you can’t find anywhere else. A stunning bespoke tub. Custom doors that open to a garden or bedroom. Or spa details like extra shower heads or sound therapy. The idea is that you have a beautiful bathroom that also functions exactly the way it should for you.

2. Add a Makeup Vanity

Every time we’ve added a special vanity area to a client’s bathroom, they have been thrilled with how much they use the space. It’s the perfect place to store makeup and toiletries, and it allows you to get ready in the morning in comfort. It’s such a luxe touch, and adds a bit of glam to any bathroom, as you can see in our Kips Bay project above.

3. Make It Steamy

There are so many bells and whistles that you can get in a shower or bathtub today! One of our favorites is a steam shower. It has so many health benefits, and it transforms your bathroom into a spa-like experience. You can also find aromatherapy showers, sound wave therapy for your tub, and built-in music systems. Ask your designer for all the latest tech innovations to help make your bathroom the perfect oasis, like the one we designed in Snoqualmie, Wash., above.

4. Rock the Walls

We always want to add that element of surprise and delight in a bathroom, and one great way to do that is with a fabulous wallpaper. Select a pattern that really packs a punch, like the bold design we chose above for a Seattle home. Paired with black and white, it makes a dramatic impact on anyone who enters.

5. Remember Luxe Details

In a bathroom, the beauty really is in the details, especially if they are functional! The Pulp team always thinks about extras that will make our clients happy, like a towel warmer, heated stone floors, statement lighting and more. Think about the details that will give you an even better experience in this space!
