Add a touch of luxury with materials such as marble in monochromatic tones.

Designer Tommy used pure white tiles to create a hyper sterile aesthetic that contrasts with the darker living spaces. The experience that he was going for was one of “stepping into a sterile box at the end of a work day to wash away your tiredness and worries”.

The legs of a Singer sewing machine support the vanity and sink in this black-and-white bathroom.

This all-white master bathroom with a see-through concept is “outlined” by the use of black framed glass panels, for an interesting visual effect.

This mostly-white bathroom is dressed in grey floor tiles and white subway tiles on the walls. Black bathroom accessories such as the faucet, showerhead, rain shower, bidet and even the toilet roll holder add accents to the space and complete the stylish, well-curated look.

Can’t get enough of the subway tiles trend? Try something slightly different by laying them vertically. The linear patterns created by the black grouting also inject a bit of fun into the white walls.

This bathroom kept in line with the home’s Japanese-inspired minimalist style by sticking to the bare minimum. Adding exposed piping and an industrial tap also helps this utilitarian space to have an edgier slant.

Plants – even if it’s just a single stalk of flower – can do wonders to enliven a space. So if you’re worried that an all-white bathroom might appear too clinical, incorporate living green elements into it.

Classic subway tiles can turn a small shower space into a charming corner with a vintage feel.

Bring about a sense of sophistication by cladding your bathroom’s floors and walls with white marble that has grey veins.

Decorate your bathroom like you would in the living room with paintings and quirky décor accessories, and you’d be surprised at how easily it is to turn a small vanity area into a pretty corner!

A marble-look tile adds a touch of sophistication to the otherwise casual home.
