Bathrooms
A washable indigo blue wallpaper that resembles grasscloth forms a feature wall. “There’s a decent amount of space between the two mirrors,” Kaplan says. “That space needed something, and having the faux grasscloth is more budget-friendly and durable. I also love the addition of texture to the space — it makes it softer.”
With the tub gone, Kaplan designed a roomy low-curb shower with a frameless glass enclosure that helps create a light and airy look. Cobalt blue 3-by-12-inch ceramic tiles in a stacked pattern accentuate the height of the room, giving the appearance of more space. “This tile took a little convincing with the client,” Kaplan says. “I love a hand-formed tile, because it gives it a lot of dimension and texture. He trusted I was giving him good advice, did some research on his own and decided to go with it. I love the color variation of this tile. It gives it a more organic feel.” Brushed nickel shower fixtures coordinate with finishes used in the vanity area. A pair of floating lacquered pine shelves above the toilet add warmth and a spot for extra wash cloths and decorative items. An 18-by-36-inch shower niche keeps products off the floor.
The focal point of this soft bathroom is a shower wall featuring a watery blue ceramic tile set in a striking basketweave pattern. A chevron-patterned honed marble floor tile that flows from the bathroom into the curbless shower adds just the right amount of contrast to be interesting on its own and make the blue wall really pop. Beachy sconces made of abaca rope and powder-coated metal add a highly textured counterpoint to the smoother surfaces.
With the tub gone, Foster Hurd created an expanded shower with a custom frameless glass enclosure. A slim window in the shower brings in light while providing privacy. The new double vanity spans the side wall. The new color palette features warm tan walls, ceiling and trim (Stucco by Sherwin-Williams); an earthy taupe vanity (Nearly Brown by Sherwin-Williams); and creamy shower tiles that vary in tone.
Guest Bath The custom stained white oak vanity includes brushed brass hardware, five easy-close drawers for storage of bathroom essentials and an open shelf on the bottom for extra towels. Handcrafted glazed white ceramic tile installed in a herringbone pattern adds texture and visual interest to the walls, including in the shower.
This tile would be really pretty in a powder bath. a timeless look for bathroom and kitchen walls. But in recent years, this rectangular tile has taken on new looks. This season’s subway tiles are available in a range of sizes and colors, and designers are stacking them vertically, horizontally and in herringbone patterns for modern looks, like the Emser 3-by-8-inch Passion tile, shown here in the glossy Rosa color.
This tile would look pretty in a shower
Love the feel of this bathroom and I especially like the vanity. Patterned tile isn’t going anywhere anytime soon, but many of the latest collections have scaled back on high-contrast colors, focusing on warm, design-friendly neutral tones. Shown here is Nemo Tile + Stone’s new Elevate collection, which includes wall and floor tile in neutral solid colors and coordinating patterned tiles, like ceramic Sindara Mix C, used here as a backsplash accent behind a bathtub.
I like the look of the seat in between the two vanities. Good idea! Sleek and functional.

I like the tub shower combo and the green rug that echos nature outside.
