Tiles, Tiles and more Tiles
With so many bathroom tile ideas out there, it can be tricky to know where to start. Here are some ideas to help and inspire you!
Combining Different Shaped Tiles
If you’re having trouble choosing between a particular style or shape of bathroom tile, why not opt for multiple designs for a complimentary, expertly-designed look?
Simple rectangular bathroom wall tiles combined with more uniquely shaped floor tiles, or vice versa, can create a visually interesting space that adds an element of texture throughout.
Glow up with Glossy
If you’ve always gone for the matte tile look, glossy tiles might be the perfect choice for your bathroom makeover!
Whether you want to create a statement shower or go for a total transformation with a fully-tiled bathroom, glossy tiles instantly add a sense of luxury. Whichever colour you use, high-gloss tiles will shine and reflect light around the space beautifully.
The White Way
If you’re all about that sophisticated, minimalist look, you can’t go wrong with white tiles that provide clean, simple lines for your space. Pairing white tiles with black grouting will also enhance those striking lines.
When you opt for a simple bathroom tile design, you’re left with plenty of room to play with the finishing touches and other design details.
Matching Tile and Paint
As vibrant tiles become more popular, there are so many eye-catching tiles to choose from that will give your space a unique personality. Painting your bathroom the same colour as your tiles offers a pleasing and cohesive look.
Patterned Bathroom Tiles for a Splash of Character
When it comes to patterned tiles the options are endless. The pattern you choose can help emulate a particular design style, whether you want to capture a modern or vintage feel.
Small Bathroom, Tile It Up
Try Lighter coloured tiles to make the space feel more open and airier.
Make good use of your floor and create a statement with patterned tiles.
Using smaller tiles in particular areas – like behind the sink or shower – to create the illusion of space.

Bring That Festive Feel To Your Bathroom

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! – We’re talking about Christmas of course. It’s the only occasion that welcomes plenty of glitter, copious amounts of twinkly lights and a sensory overload of red.
Incorporating small amounts of the festive feel into your bathroom can be achieved with simple changes that transform your bathroom into a winter wonderful that all the family will love.
If your bathroom is already on trend with brushed vintage gold fittings, then you can skip past this part. If you haven’t installed gold fittings, what are you waiting for? Vintage golds are taking over bathroom interiors by storm. They’re charming character, will give your bathroom a luxury feel and can be paired with almost any colour scheme.
Sprinkle Christmas aesthetics around the room by changing up your towel scheme to a beautiful bold red. For the extra Christmas vibe we opted for a gorgeous red towel with Christmas trees prints. Christmas candles are a great addition to bathrooms during the dark winter evenings. Find a style which suits your bathroom, such as a snow coloured white candle or a metallic candle to match your tinsel. There are also many candles available with Christmas scents, which will ensure you create a truly festive feel.
When it comes to choosing your ornaments, go for golds! Put away the greenery and replace them with holly or branch lights. Branch lights will give your bathroom that twinkly Christmas look, that the whole family will enjoy.
Shelves can be used as a holiday vignette. Turn your attention to accessorising them with holiday cheer. Mix tabletop decorations and other festive accents for the ultimate holiday shelfie.
You can go the extra Christmas mile, by adding a wreath on your bathroom door or a poinsettia plant which will add a splash of colour to your bathroom. If looking after another plant doesn’t appeal to you, a sprig of mistletoe or a vase of pinecones will create a similar feel.
Consider swapping your shower curtain for one that matches this magical season and ta da! – a perfect festive bathroom!
Everyone at Cranleigh Bathroom Studios would like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year !
Creating Elegance - Bathroom Fixtures
Creating Elegance
If you have spent time and money creating your perfect new bathroom, choosing furniture, baths and gorgeous new bathroom colour schemes, you can’t neglect making the perfect finishing touches to your bathroom. Luxury bathroom fixtures like taps and showers give you a beautiful finish. Read on for more on creating elegance by choosing the perfect luxury bathroom fixtures for you.
High-quality luxury bathroom fixtures usually means better quality. Research taps to make sure that they easily withstand heavy use and the same with showers.
Show-stopping elegant bathroom fixtures
Think differently with show-stopping elegant bathroom fixtures, choose elegant bathroom fixtures that will stand out. Distinctively individual pieces like limited editions are made to be artistic finishing touches that help to create a look that is really your own. Bring something different to your bathroom décor with an intricate design.
For showers, choosing unexpected colours like the dark, elegant blue with midnight blue handles can add an element of surprise and interest to the overall look of your bathroom. Don’t be afraid to be bold with colour, even with luxury bathroom fixtures like these – more colour gives you the opportunity to play even more creatively with your colour scheme.
A commonplace feature in many luxury bathrooms, heated towel radiators not only offer warmth but a place to hang your towels tastefully.
But rather than opting for a conventional towel warmer in a standard white or chrome scheme, why not add Art Deco opulence to your master bathroom with a metallic gold or brass finish?
Alternatively, choose a high-end style that deviates away from the traditional ladder style. This might look like a set of towel rings or a curvier s-shaped design.
Large shower heads create a dramatic effect and allow you to shower your worries away every morning beneath a crystalline cascade of warm water. Smaller but equally stylish shower fixtures are wonderful for bathrooms that have less space.
If you have a freestanding bath, pair with freestanding mixer taps can be a truly wonderful way to create elegance yet in an unexpected way to draw the relaxing bath of your dreams. Essentially a tall tap that sits beside your bath to fill it, these beautifully statuesque fixtures make a real statement.
If you love the traditional look, and are searching for the elegance of traditionally-styled luxury bathroom fixtures, so many options are available to you. There are a variety of ranges of tap and shower fittings that transmit a sophisticated, more traditional glamour. Others offers classic rounded cross handles in glistening chrome or vintage gold, echoing the opulence of the Victorian era.
Pair traditional tap or shower fixtures with bathroom furniture and suites that call to mind the same feel.
Discover a wide variety stunning taps and showers, as well as many gorgeous suites and much more by visiting Cranleigh Bathroom Studio or call 01483 272727
