11. Add lounge seating
This master bathroom feels more like a luxe living space, with butter leather Barcelona bench seating, a vintage rug and modern art.
A lounge area in a bathroom is very luxe – especially when the lounge seating in question is a classic Eames lounge chair. The marble wall tiles help differentiate the wet area from the lounge area.

14. Indulge with his & hers bathtubs
Take things up a notch with his and hers bathtubs. Can you imagine anything more luxurious than having two freestanding bathtubs, so you can comfortably soak together without having to share? A side table in the middle means that drinks are always within reach.
Get the look: These are the Amalfi baths from Victoria + Albert Baths, price from £3,275 inc vat.
15. For large bathrooms, consider a vanity island
Interior designer Richard Felix Ashman decided to place this bathroom vanity in the centre of the room as the walls were all in use. The owners suggested the diagonal angle of the vanity island, which frees the circulation from a rigid grid. The custom hanging mirror is also double sided and flanked by customised pendants, all in polished nickel.
Get the look: Bathtub from Waterworks. Hanging Mirror was a custom design from Urban Archaeology. Lighting from Fuse, St. Honore Gueridon in polished brass by Matthews & Parker. Plumbing from Waterworks, Herbeau.
16. Separate the bathroom with sliding barn doors
Both practical and decorative, the sliding doors here take their cue from traditional barn doors. The walls are finished in polished tadelakt to contrast with the dark blue freestanding bath. Glossy plaster walls in the bathrooms chime with oak doors; taps, in bronze or brass, add an industrial glimmer.
Get the look: The taps are by Brooklyn-based The Watermark Collection.
17. Maximise every inch of space in compact bathrooms
Got a tiny bathroom? Transform it into a functional shower room.

Get the look: The vanity unit was made bespoke by Studio DB. These are Aurora pendants by Oregon brand Cedar & Moss. The mirror is by New York-based Matter.
20. Keep your parquet floors
This luxe bathroom retained the original floorboards by creating a splash-proof marble centre for the bath.
Get the look: This is Catchpole & Rye’s double-ended Le Bain de Bateau bath. The fittings are also by Catchpole & Rye.
