Create a bold and stylish ensuite bathroom with Oxo.

A prerequisite for many homeowners these days, ensuite bathrooms have become a popular must-have in contemporary homes.

These private spaces do not only offer a quiet sanctuary for owners to relax and unwind but also an opportunity to flex their design muscles.

That’s because you can afford to go much bolder in your design choices in an ensuite than in a family bathroom where practicality is the most important design aspect.

A private ensuite is a great place to show off your style.

To help get the creative juices flowing, the team at Oxo, a specialist luxury bathroom and sanitaryware stockist, shares some inspiring ensuite design ideas.

Choose luxe materials and fittings

Because ensuite bathrooms are usually on the smaller side (compared to family bathrooms), you can afford to choose more luxurious finishes such as marble, handmade tiles and brushed brass for the space.

Introduce colour and pattern

Marble or tiles are also a great way to introduce a unique colour or pattern to the space.

Eukalypt Kross Marron Cacao tiles, for instance, are perfect for creating an indulgent space. Or how about the striking marble-look Marma Decorista tiles for a luxe design statement?

Opt for a large, open shower

With less traffic and no kids, ensuites are the perfect place for a beautiful open shower with all the bells and whistles.

Break down the walls

If possible, why not open up your ensuite to the elements? A freestanding outdoor bath or rain shower may be just what you need for utter relaxation.

If that’s not possible, think about having a skylight installed above your bath or shower for a more organic space filled with natural light.

Play with texture

Contemporary luxury is all about layering textures. In an ensuite, think about pairing three-dimensional or ribbed tiles, such as Candle Traffic Blanco tiles, with brass finishes, natural stone and woven elements for a sophisticated look.
