The Art of Creating a Rustic Bathroom

There are many bathrooms that are created with a flawless and untouched look in mind. While these bathrooms can be beautiful, rustic bathrooms still shine as a must have in many homes. When looking to create a rustic bathroom for your home, follow a few specific steps to help build the bathroom of your dreams.

Bizarre Centerpiece Every bathroom should have a focal point that the room bases its entire look after, especially rustic bathrooms. An example of this would be an old iron tub, an industrial looking stand-up shower, or a 19th-century chandelier. This centerpiece should be eye-catching and out of the ordinary.

Random Synergy The furniture and cabinets in the bathroom should have a similar look to that of the centerpiece, but not an exact look like many modern bathrooms do. The bathroom should look like it was pieced together, yet at the same time, everything has a sense of belonging. In other words, the fixtures and furniture should resemble each other, but not match exactly.

Crazy Colors Many rustic bathrooms will have fixtures and cabinetry that range in shades of black, gray, and brown. Many fixtures chosen for these types of bathrooms will have a rust color and look like they were pulled out of an old factory. To make these fixtures stand out, choose a rich paint that brightens up the room. Rustic bathrooms need a proper balance of “dark and cozy” and “bright and lively.”

For people who like things that are out of the ordinary, opt for a rustic bathroom over a traditional or modern look.
