A nautical bathroom is a great way to add character and personality to your home. Before contacting a bathroom remodeler, it’s best if you already have a good idea of the design you want. Depending on the nautical look you want to incorporate, it can be as subtle or as bold as you’d like.
Whether it’s for an ocean-themed guest room, kids’ bathroom, or just for some coastal flair in your own space, this guide will help you design the perfect nautical bathroom!
Decide on a Budget
Before you start shopping for fixtures and accessories, you need to decide on a budget. This will help you determine how much money you’re willing to spend — not just on each item but also on the bathroom contractor you hire. This way, you don’t go overboard with your nautical bathroom design. It also helps to focus on the essential items instead of splurging on the features you want.
Choose a Coastal Color Scheme
When it comes to a nautical bathroom, you’ll want to use colors that emulate the sea. For walls or fixtures, for instance, consider blue and green hues. You may also try whites and grays for a more neutral look. This color scheme will provide a consistent backdrop as you add other pieces later on.
Select Nautical Fixtures and Accessories
As for the fixtures and accessories, think about items that will help you achieve the nautical look. For example, opt for a clawfoot tub or shower curtains with the appropriate sea-related pattern. If you’re on a budget, you can incorporate affordable pieces like bath mats or towels with a coastal theme.
Consider Nautical Wallpaper or Paint Patterns
Once you’ve decided on your fixtures and accessories, it’s time to choose a wallpaper or paint color for the walls. Wallpaper can be a great way to bring in more of the nautical look without taking away from the other pieces. However, if painting your walls is more within your budget, adding stripes or an ombre effect makes for a fun and creative design.
Add Coastal Décor Pieces
Finally, it’s time to add some coastal decor pieces. These can range from wall art featuring nautical themes to small trinkets like shells or starfish. You may also opt for a fun lamp with an anchor design or a mirror with seashells along the edges. Whatever you choose, make sure it fits your budget and adds to the overall look of your bathroom.
