Clean and modern designs seem to be the “in” thing for bathroom renovation design these days, but glitter and dazzle isn’t out of fashion. A good example of this is jewel box bathrooms. In today’s post, local remodelers at DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Larimer County take a look at how you can have one in your own home.
What Makes a Bathroom a “Jewel Box”?
The concept of the jewel box bathroom is grounded in embracing boldness and luxury within a confined space. Just as a jewel box is compact yet filled with precious items, a jewel box bathroom is small but rich with opulence. Vibrant colors, rich textures and intricate patterns are flaunted, not held back. It’s an opportunity to use metallics and crystals, pieces that would normally call too much attention to themselves in any other setting.
Jewel Box Bathroom Design Tips
Small spaces like a powder room are ideal for a jewel box bathroom, as continuity with the rest of the house is not as important — the idea is like you’re entering a completely different space. This is a key consideration if you are planning a whole home remodel. Get started on your jewel box bathroom with these design tips.
- Embrace bold wallpapers and paints. A jewel box bathroom is anything but subtle. Instead, install wallpapers with lush, dramatic prints or choose saturated paints.
- Complement with opulent textiles and fixtures. Custom shower curtains, plush bath towels, and luxurious rugs can add texture and warmth that can enhance the jewel box effect. While fixtures like brass or chrome look great in any bathroom remodel, here they emulate the meticulous detail of fine jewelry.
- Indulge in artistic tiles and flooring. Tiles can add to the jewel box look without making the overall design look too busy. Artfully-arranged mosaic tiles or ones with geometric patterns can serve as a visual anchor.
- Light it up with statement lighting. The right lighting is like the sauce that brings a complex dish together. It’s also where your taste and style will shine, in more ways than one. It can be anything from a vintage-inspired chandelier to modern sconces.
