Metallic hardware and plumbing fixtures look and feel special, not to mention they’re beautiful to look at. The larger the mirror, the more light it reflects, and it can also help make your space look bigger. Take inspiration from House Beautiful’s 2022 Whole Home where an oversized pivot mirror is the focal point of this primary bathroom. To free up visual space and streamline your bathroom’s design, choose to float your sink rather than have a pedestal or vanity cabinet beneath it.

This mountain house bathroom from Emily Henderson Design includes a soaking tub nestled in a wall of modern bay windows with a view of the trees outside. An exposed wood ceiling highlights the room’s angles, with plenty of knots in the natural wood to gaze at during a long nighttime soak. Black fixtures, lighting, and accessories will make an all-white bathroom feel sophisticated and polished. This primary bathroom from Sissy + Marley Interior Design is decorated in creamy shades of white and punctuated with graphic black accents from the sheepskin rug to the soap dispensers. A modern pendant light and sculptural stool add interest to the bright space. Seating of any kind or size will add a sense of luxury to your bathroom.

Fun graphic floor tiles bring playfulness to the deep red paint color in this small bathroom designed by Andy Beers of Ore Studios. The spacious drawers under the floating vanity also help keep things tidy, a must in a tiny bathroom. In this bathroom designed by Romanek Design Studio, the baby blue zellige tiles and sleek matte black and glass enclosure make a modern statement. A floating bench adds both formal and functional value, too, and bathers won’t have to worry about a pesky curtain getting in the way as they wash up.

Toilet flange leaks occur where the toilet meets with the waste pipe below, and water seeps out when you flush. If the flange is too low, install a plastic flange riser over the existing flange. If the flange or bolt slots are broken, install a metal repair flange. Sink rim leaks occur when water seeps from under the rim or the base of the faucet. Then recaulk the sink rim and tighten the clips under the sink rim that clamps the sink to the countertop. The powder room belonging to fashion designer Veronica Swanson Beard echoes the elements found in the Nantucket waters just beyond the home.
