Metro tiles in a modern bathroom - timeless classics from a new angle

This tile pitchfork appeared in the West at the beginning of the 20th century during the heyday of the Art Nouveau or Art Nouveau style. And now, on the walls of the subway of Western countries or America, you can see neat brick bricks representing the decoration of the walls. In our country, you can often hear the name "wild boar". It seemed to someone that the look of the tile from its end, with two holes, looked like a pig's patch, hence the popular nickname for the tile.

Tiles "metro" is of different sizes, complexity, quality of the material, differs in type of edge. But, an invariable similarity for all varieties is the way of laying out - like a brick wall. If the tile is presented in the version without an edge, then for contrast, grout of darker tones for white tiles is often used and vice versa.

This type of wall cladding is a universal option for a neat and inexpensive way to protect the vertical surfaces of a bathroom or shower from moisture. It goes well with other types of finishes and transforms into almost any style of the room.

In this bright bathroom, the metro tile is not immediately apparent, and not only because of the neutral color scheme. Just next door is a very unusual ensemble of antique objects and artwork.

In the case of "metro" tiles made with a beveled edge, which gives the brickwork a texture, and even in a glossy version, general attention is paid to such finish. The deep, rich color of the lining of the bathroom apron in the Art Nouveau style becomes the focal point of the room, around which the whole design concept is built. Contrasting combinations and an original fresco complete the unusual image of the room.

Another option for the bright coloring of the “hog” tiles in the no less bright room of the bathroom, made with a decadent mood. Against the background of the dark cladding, snow-white carved furniture looks luxurious and festive.

This bright blue metro tile has become the channel for the design of a modern room. A harmonious combination of contrasting shades was the best color scheme for the designer.

In this spacious and very luxurious snow-white bath, you do not immediately notice exactly how the walls are lined. Pretentious Baroque furniture, royal chandelier, French scalloped curtains - in this bathroom you can take water procedures with a truly royal scope and mood.

Contrasting colors allowed the design of the bathroom not to drown in the sterile whiteness of the finishing materials. It is not strange, but it was dark impregnations that defused the atmosphere of a modern interior.

Mosaic as a way to implement creative ideas in the bathroom

No matter how many millennia pass. And humanity will not stop using mosaics to decorate and decorate the surfaces of their homes. Having originated in the ancient period, having gone through many transformations, this type of decoration is still popular today.

Mosaic tiles can be neutral, calm. Especially if the riot of colors outside the bathroom window requires a landscape that does not distract from the landscape.

And maybe bright, stormy, emotional. The whole underwater kingdom, created by the skillful hands of the master, who picked up each part of the mosaic by color, size and texture, was created in one room. Even a periscope and portholes are available in this bathroom. The mosaic on the walls is so all-consuming and realistic that it is difficult to determine the size of the room, to see the boundaries of the ceiling and walls, for example.

In this bathroom, mosaic tiles were used as flooring. Clarity of forms, geometricity and contrast of deep color solutions created an individual, laconic image of the bathroom.

Everything in this glamorous bathroom is colorful and juicy. A bright mosaic around a fanciful mirror completed a non-trivial image of a room with a red ceiling and a chest of drawers consisting of mirror plates.

Three colors of mosaic tiles created the incredible character of this bathroom. Geometric shapes dominate the texture and transform the space.

The interior of the bathroom without ceramic tiles - current reality

The latest trend in the design of bathrooms has been the alternative replacement of ceramic tiles with moisture-resistant modern materials for surface finishing. Porcelain can still be seen on the floor of a modern bathroom, but it is often replaced with raw materials from a natural group of eco-materials.

As a rule, such designs of bathrooms are simple and concise, made with a predominance of a neutral color palette, often in snow-white tones.

Often the bathroom room continues the line of the color scheme and decoration history of the bedroom near which it is located. In this case, only colorful flooring allows zoning the room.

For a minimalist style in a modern bathroom there is no place for ceramic tiles, the walls are treated with moisture-resistant emulsions of neutral tones. There is nothing superfluous in the interior, practicality and rationalism, nothing distracts from the key object.

This small bright bathroom is made using painted wooden panels, moisture-resistant plaster and laminate for rooms with high humidity. The bohemian atmosphere is added by an interesting chandelier and a print on wallpaper-film.

It is not often possible to find a bathroom design in such dark colors. The game of contrasts in the modern style is a key design technique.

In this grayish-white realm of concrete, not only the bathroom is located. But also the laundry. Usually, a similar design is chosen for the utility rooms of loft-style apartments. Not always these are former production facilities, but the scope of the space and the spaciousness of the premises allows the use of industrial style.

In modern design, you can also meet the decoration of a brick wall. Sometimes a brick is just a stylization for real material. But real brickwork in the interior of a modern bathroom or shower is common.

Concrete surfaces are only slightly diluted with the coolness of natural stone. Light marble looks gorgeous against a grayish finish, and interesting decor elements complement the image of a non-trivial room.

Due to the bright design of the accent wall with a fireplace and a mirror in a carved luxurious frame, it seems that they simply brought a bathtub to the living room. A carved chair with soft upholstery only adds a touch to this puzzle. The lack of tile and stone also refers us to the interiors of residential premises.

In the interior of this bathroom in pastel colors, stone tiles were often used for flooring, which is often used for outdoor work, on street surfaces. It harmonizes perfectly with the dark shade of the wooden bench and window shutters.

Country elements - a natural touch in a modern bathroom design

No matter how modern decoration materials are, how fancy and futuristic plumbing and bathroom accessories would seem, to bring a little natural warmth with the help of eco-materials will never be superfluous.

Raw wood beams and a bathtub, which seemed to be carved out of a stone block, harmoniously fit into the modern bathroom decoration. Contrasts in texture and color schemes have benefited the interior.

The active use of wood and stone to finish the surfaces of this room with natural shades, allowed us to create an atmosphere of proximity to nature. Huge floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows seem to blur the line between the external surrounding nature and the interior of the bathroom.

Just a couple of wooden elements in the design of a modern bathroom can change not only the appearance, but also the nature of the room.

This bath-sauna seemed to have sprung up around a pile of large stones, now performing the role of a screen and elements of zoning. Wood and stone are the best choice for a rustic interior.

Colored ceramic tiles for a bright, modern bathroom

Among the adherents of the use of ceramic tiles to finish the surfaces of the bathroom, as the most practical and durable way, there are also bold homeowners who prefer to bring brightness to the rooms and do not limit designers in the flight of imagination.

A bright tile pattern can invigorate the most inconspicuous and modest room of the bathroom. Starting a new day in such an environment is incredibly pleasant and positive.

Ceramic tiles, reminiscent of oriental bazaars with their brightness, become an accent element of the whole interior, beckoning its character and mood.

Despite the calm, natural shades of the tiles, the interior looks bright and non-trivial, it is filled with contrasting combinations of color schemes.

The shower cabin, lined with colored tiles, looks gorgeous against the background of the dark blue surfaces of the bathroom. An elegant royal chandelier, French windows and the sparkle of modern bathroom accessories complete the luxurious ambience.

The tile stylized under a wood covering became the excellent choice for facing of the small room. Unusual flooring and bright decor items complete the individual look.

Textured tiles in the form of snake scales have become the highlight of this design project. The surface of the room seems to flow smoothly into each other, transforming the space with the help of form and texture.

Curtains in the bathroom - a practical necessity or element of decor

In the finished design project of the bathroom, you can change the look and mood with the help of accessories and textiles. This is a fairly economical way to bring brightness to the room or to build a bridge between color and texture in the design of the bathroom.

Curtains in the shower or on the windows can become a key element in your interior, eye-catching and creating a unique atmosphere.

In this bathroom, made in the spirit of French Provence, roller blinds from the mat look very useful, combined with wooden elements of decor and furniture.

Light and transparent linen curtains have become an excellent accessory for a small bathroom, shading the gray color in the design of the space near the mirrors

Roman curtains made of cotton linen are a worthy option for a bathtub in a strict minimalist style with a snow-white finish.

Bright colored curtains are also an accessory of the bathroom area, which is located right in the bedroom. This is a great option for the spring, bright atmosphere of an unusual room.

Within small rooms, shower curtains are a necessary thing, which can also be an interesting subject of decor.
