Interior Styling | Rustic Bathrooms

5.17.2013

As we make the final decisions on the bathrooms for our new house, which are very simple and predominantly white, I can't help but be drawn to rustic styled bathrooms whenever I'm on the internet. There's something about the textural surfaces of concrete and wood that really appeal. The grey floor tiles we've chosen look a bit like slate, and I'd quite like to find a vintage wooden stool, but that's about as close as we're getting to rustic. If you're braver than I am and want to give this look a try, here are some inspiring images, starting with something I'm particularly fascinated with right now, concrete basins.





Concrete vanities create a bit a of drama and look especially earthy against white walls and modern ceiling lights.

I love the simplicity of raw wood. Thick cut, rough-hewn timber certainly adds plenty of warmth to a bathroom. To me, these bathrooms above work really well in terms of balance. The natural wood contrasts beautifully with the white walls, grey floor tiles and minimalist sinks, tapware and mirrors. I'm also crazy about large, rectangular counter top basins. If they're doubles, even better!

Either freestanding or built-in, a rustic wood bench is both stylish and practical.

Finally, you can not underestimate the power of a simple wooden stool in adding a rustic touch to your bathroom. So easy to come by on auction sites or second-hand stores, a tree stump would also work really well!

If you'd like to see more rustic style bathrooms, I have pinned loads to my bathroom board. Have a lovely weekend everyone. I'll see you back here on Monday with an exciting giveaway!

  1. All beautiful! The 2nd photo, with those two gorgeous organic round basins, is divine. We've got two big slabs of wood that used to be our mantle pieces before we ripped out the fireplace and it's wall, creating a big open space living area. We've been thinking of re-using them as a bench for our bathroom vanity. I'm sure yours will look amazing. x
