Fresh Ideas for your Bathroom

The bathroom is, normally, the smallest room in a house, but it is nonetheless one of the hardest places to properly furnish. It’s important to find the right balance between trends and practicality. This is why we recommend using the right finishings, with natural colors and effects. An example of porcelain stoneware wall tiles is the new Groove collection.

Here, are a few original ideas to create a long-lasting, contemporary looking bathroom.

1 | A WELL LIT TOUCH

 

A design for those who appreciate modern style and like to keep details to a minimum and maximize spaces.

 

We have created a comfortable and stylish indoor space, based on the premise of “not going too far”.

Therefore, we have resorted to two simple yet efficient solutions: contrasting grout joints and light, monochrome walls.

 

For this project you will need:

 

  • Argilla Element Silk Covering, 25×75, with shade 145 grout joints (70%) + 143 (30%);
  • Titanio Element Silk Strip Mosaic, 29,2×31,3, with shade 145 grout joints (70%) + 143 (30%);
  • Porcelain stoneware floor, wood effect Groove Milk 20×120 and shade 111 grout joints.

 

The grout joints shades are part of the MAPEI Ultracolor collection.

2 | FOLIAGE DECORATIONS

 

Plant-related motifs breath life into indoor environments, providing a natural and fresh sensation.

 

Try our new Foliage insert décor, 25×75 with leaves pattern, combined to a contemporary Petrolio colored and dark creano wood effect porcelain tiles, with a bathtub placed at the center of the room for a spa atmosphere.

 

If you have a shower, you can use decorative inserts on your walls to turn it into a tropical shower.

Lastly, in order to make this project a reality, you will need:

 

  • Petrolio Element Silk Covering, 25×75, shade 171 grout joints (75%) + 113 (25%);
  • Foliage insert Petrolio Element Sink decor, 25×75, shade 171 grout joints (75%) + 113 (25%);
  • Porcelain tiles, wood effect, Groove Dark 9,5×60 and shade 114 grout joints.

The grout joints shades are part of the MAPEI Ultracolor collection.

3 | FLOWER MOTIF

 

Flower motif tiles, other than embellishing your bathroom, serve the purpose of creating a joyful atmosphere that will contribute to your daily wellbeing.

For this project, we have chosen Ninfea and Bouquet Inserts decors as an inspiration, 25×75, with their gorgeous flower motifs. You could easily call them ceramic wallpaper, and much like wallpaper they can be laid on the entire wall.

In a small bathroom, these decors might cover the wall next to the bathtub, or make the basin area stand out. They will also look stunning in your shower box.

You will need:

  • Argilla Element Silk Covering, 25×75, with shade 145 grout joints (70%) + 143 (30%);
  • Neve Element Silk Covering, 25×75, with shade 100 grout joints;
  • Bouquet insert, Neve Element Silk décor, 25×75 with shade 100 grout joints;
  • Porcelain tiles, wood effect, Groove Milk 20×120 natural with shade 111 grout joints.

The grout joints shades are part of the MAPEI Ultracolor collection.

Alternatively, choose from the following selection:

 

  • Ninfea insert, Neve Element Silk décor, 25×75 with shade 100 grout joints;
  • Neve Element Strip mosaic, 29,2×31,3 with shade 100 grout joints;
  • Porcelain tiles, wood effect, Groove Blend 20×120 natural with shade 113 grout joints.

 

A flower motif furnished space will be unique, and enhance your creativity.

 

The ideas we’ve put forth can be suitable for both small and more spacious bathrooms, with a single environment for fixtures or separated settings. Each possibility can be used as a starting point and be further customized according to your needs, which is why we invite you to explore our Groove collection in depth.

 

We will discuss more details about this collection during the Italon showroom live session, which will also be a good opportunity to actually see the tiles.
