Turn your bathroom into a spa retreat

Our interior design clients in Richmond, Va., often request a calming space. We often suggest the bathroom, it is already private and one can really create a special space to relax. A spa bathroom can even add value to your home.

Save the statement wallpaper for the powder room and turn your bathroom into your own spa experience!

Create a Spa Retreat Bathroom

Add a clawfoot tub

This elegant clawfoot tub is perfect for a more traditional home. We paired it with Carrara marble tile and used a variety shapes to give interest and eliminate monotony. The herringbone floor features 2 x 2 squares on the shower floor and large format for the walls. Timeless materials are always a sign of comfort.

Try a calming Lavender glow

Slab stone is dramatic without being overwhelming. Here we used a stone with green and blue hues, reminding the homeowner of a calming ocean. The London shade on the window allows for privacy and lots of sunshine.

go Organic and earthy

In this beautiful bathroom, natural earth tones, organic textures and a glass panel of pressed grass bring the outside in. It was the perfect design for a lakeside home.

Build a Slipper tub “alter”

Step up and step in to this glorious slipper tub with vaulted ceilings and serene green textures. Once again we used timeless materials to keep the dramatic space pleasingly calm.

Or, add a lovely view

Not everyone can add vaulted ceilings to their bathroom, so consider adding a dramatic window instead. Here, classic Crema Marfil marble anchors the creamy white cabinets. Note the stacked crown molding and rich, traditional “feel good” details.

Sneak peek—Work in progress!

For those who want a tropical paradise to unwind in, we installed this stunning Designers Guild mural, “Bagatelle-Reglisse” behind the tub. This will become a Mediterranean retreat after the exotic palm frond window coverings are installed.
