Bathroom: ideas of ceramics or trendy earthenware

in #bathroom7 years ago

The bathroom has become a living room in its own right and is also entitled to a makeover and decoration. If some people dream of an Italian shower with ceramic walls, others will be inspired by it. Ceramic tiles and earthenware are increasingly used in our waterworks, either to delimit spaces or to mark a separation with tiles. Take advantage of these decorating ideas to give your bathroom a new look.

Old-fashioned ceramics

Characterized by its mix of patterns with varied shapes and designs, old-fashioned ceramic brings relief to your walls or floors. With its harmonious blend of patterns, it is a symbol of authenticity. It is better to choose the earthenware option to put it on a single wall. Thus, like a credenza, it is possible to place it behind the basins and raise it to mid-height.
In any case, it will be perfectly suited to a style that we want rustic. To do this, you need to decorate it with wooden furniture. A large mirror with a fairly wide wooden outline is also ideal for this purpose.
Old tile type ceramic tiles

Large ceramic tiles perfectly embody the style of old tiles. We like its ease of installation thanks to its large dimensions and colourful patterns. Taking up geometrical shapes and often bluish hues, it is a little bit the Mediterranean spirit that invites itself to you. This type of ceramics is perfectly suited for 3 styles of living:

  • The seaside houses where the ancient tiles of the azulejos type combine perfectly with beautiful sunny days,
  • With the white walls of a bathroom to which they will bring colour and cheerfulness.
  • Homes with Scandinavian furnishings that will love soft colours.

You will appreciate floral motifs, geometrical shapes and vintage-inspired colours for your interior. Thanks to this antique pattern you will energize your bathroom. Choose ceramic tiles if you want to lay them on the floor (because they are much heavier) and use earthenware for the walls. These impressions will be used to delimit a space between a white wall and a coloured area for example. You can also lay out your earthenware in credence style along the sink or at the level of the shower and bathtub.

The concrete effect tile is perfect to satisfy the cravings of pure or industrial style, also bringing a touch of modernity. The earthenware concrete appearance also gives an impression of size to your pond. This decor will perfectly accommodate teak furniture, furniture with a resin finish and basins with very modern geometrical shapes.
In addition, with these different shades of grey, beige or taupe, this product can meet all your needs and styles. It can be easily combined with any kind of interior. For example, the concrete effect ceramics blends perfectly with old tiles with colourful patterns or, on the contrary, in monochrome and grey tile shades.
Wood imitation ceramics:

The ceramic "material" aspect is ideal for the bathroom, as it combines the beauty of the material with the resistance to water or strong passage. Thus, with a wood imitation, you will have tiles of all sizes at a lower cost compared to real wood planks. In addition, whether your interior is modern or rustic, it will naturally find its place. In the bathroom you will be able to choose between light shades if you want a Scandinavian spirit or on the contrary darker for a mountain cottage or country house spirit. A ceramic imitation wood is the prerogative of a bathroom that we would like to zen.
On the other hand, if you want to avoid a feeling of suffocation in your bathroom, especially if you have mosaic in your shower tray, for example, you should cover only one part of a wall in the lower part with tiles. The upper part can only be treated with paint to enlarge the space and bring brightness.
Ceramics in relief

A real decorative material par excellence, the ceramic in relief will give your bathroom an exceptional style. Manufacturers compete with each other for ingeniousness to offer products with more original reliefs and patterns than the other. Do you like the elegance of copper or chrome? Then choose earthenware in relief with golden hues.
Natural stone

Ceramic tiles and natural stone tiles have the advantage of being both rustic and trendy. We like these light shades which bring softness, but also a lot of warmth. In front of the multitude of existing products concerning natural stone, you must nevertheless choose your product carefully. Indeed, if products such as stacked briquettes offer a beautiful finish, consider that a smooth ceramic is much easier to clean.
With the right lighting arrangement, natural stone will take on marvellous golden hues that will enhance your bathroom perfectly. What's more, you will have an important contribution of light if your room has no windows.
Ceramics and pebble plates

Ceramic tiles with a pebble effect are becoming increasingly popular in decoration. Very popular for decorating the bathroom, it has the advantage of being very easy to install. It is available in several shades and with more or less pronounced reliefs. Finally, you will also have the possibility to choose the size of your pebbles which should correspond to the size of your bathroom.
Also, to create a perfect harmony in your bathroom, you must absolutely choose a shade close to your main tile. A clear natural stone wall will support a strip of pebbles in beige or sand. The pebble can be placed on the floor of your room, in your shower or on the walls. If you want to completely rebuild the walls of your bathroom with pebbles, choose a clear effect to bring light and space to the room.
