4 WAYS TO ADD TEXTURE
TO YOUR BATHROOM
Texture has always played an essential role in home interiors; from plush textiles that create warmth and depth to design schemes, to raw and natural woodwork that brings an element of nature indoors. Connecting our senses through touch can spark a multitude of emotions as well as evoking nostalgic memories, so it is no wonder the texture trend is here to stay.
1. GO BOLD WITH BRASSWARE
Textured brassware is currently dominating the world of bathroom trends, thanks to its artistic detailing and tactile element.
If you are looking to make a style statement with your brassware, then Knurled Accents is the collection for you. A story of bold contrast, Knurled Accents fuses elegant brassware with diamond cut knurled detailing for a look that lends itself to an industrial design scheme.
In contrast, the geometric textures found in our Omika collection, passionately designed by Jo Love, embody elegance with a delicate touch. The intricate detailing formed into the collection’s controls mirror the soft textures found in water to bring an element of nature inside.
2. EXPLORE
TEXTURED TILES
From statement, on-trend designs to the humble metro tile that simply refuses to go out of style, bathroom tiles are an important element to factor into your design ideas.
Inspired by the texture movement within interior design, bathroom tiles come in a range of finishes that can subtly add interest and layers of texture. Proving to be a popular choice is the wave tile, the soft raised design mimics ocean waves to create a calming sanctuary; perfect for when you are having a relaxing soak in the bath. Whilst in contrast, trend focused designs such as the Subway Lab tiles by Johnson Tiles are inspired by modern architecture and form to create unique pieces of art. Thanks to their non-slip nature, textured tiles are also a practical styling choice when used on floors.
3. ADD INSTANT IMPACT
WITH ACCESSORIES
Accessories are a quick and budget friendly way to add an extra dimension to your texture story. Start with your bath linen – mix and match waffle towels and robes, made from soft organic cotton, for a relaxed spa vibe. Store your bathroom towels in a woven basket or rattan storage unit for a display of complementing textures and colours.
Soap dispensers and storage pots are another cost-effective way of dipping into the texture trend. Concrete accessories offer a range of unique textures with a contemporary appeal, whilst the natural finish of bamboo storage pots and matching plant pots will transform your bathroom into a tropical haven.
4. COMPLETE THE LOOK
Those all-important finishing details will complete your texture design scheme and allow you to add your own unique style. Luxurious lighting, with delicately ribbed glass shades offer more than just a retro vibe. Thanks to the textured detailing, light radiates through the glass casting shadows to create an ambient environment.
Art is often overlooked when it comes to the bathroom, but if you have the space, hanging abstract art can create the illusion of texture whilst becoming a focal point when relaxing after a busy day.
It can also be the smallest of details that complete the look, swap the handles on your bathroom cabinets for ones with textured detailing. Brushed brass cabinet knobs with knurling effortlessly complement our Knurled Accents collection, whilst a beehive design suits a traditional design scheme.
