Wellness bathroom: Find relaxation in the bathroom
A bathroom fulfills many functions – but it can do so much more. With the right design elements, it becomes a sanctuary where you can draw strength. You can find the best design and furnishing ideas here!
A cozy seating element invites you to stay a while and relax.
The foundation: interior design ideas that combine the bathroom and wellness
A wooden floor, elements made of natural materials, and plants provide a particularly cozy atmosphere.
If you want to transform your bathroom into a wellness oasis, you need to bring together the right accessories, colors, and bathroom furniture. Here are some ideas:
Natural color scheme: Nature helps us relieve stress and calm down. Use earthy colors like ocher, sea green, beige, umber, chalk, and vermilion. They create warmth, radiate power, and look elegant. Combine these colors with high-character, solid wood furniture and select plants that feel at home in damp spaces. These would include ivy in bathrooms with little daylight and tillandsia and monstera in rooms with plenty of daylight.
Luxurious décor: The center is the large bath tub, a whirlpool tub, the spacious rain shower, and the shower toilet. In addition, stylish furnishings create a spa-like feeling.
Systematic order: Create enough storage space to accommodate skincare and hygiene products, accessories, and other items. This can be done in a particularly decorative and natural way with raffia baskets and storage boxes made of fabric or felt.

The freestyle: Creating an experience for all the senses in the wellness bathroom
The foundation for the wellness bathroom with high-quality furniture, soft color schemes, and an appealing décor has been laid. Now it’s a matter of creating the atmosphere for moments of tranquility with personal elements – so you can enjoy with all your senses.
Sight: A large-scale landscape painting on the wall or a small-scale watercolor can be a beautiful eye-catcher. Opposite the bath tub, this kind of view invites you to daydream. For a pleasant, sensual atmosphere, warm light and (colored) spotlights are recommended to create custom, atmospheric lighting.
Hearing: When designing, plan for the technical requirements for melodious evenings. Discretely integrate a Bluetooth box or smart home voice assistant so you can relax to soft instrumental music or nature recordings through loudspeakers.
Smell: The sense of smell is humanity’s most immediate sense. Smells awaken memories and feelings in us, and thus can have a direct influence on our mood. An aroma diffuser with essential oils can relieve stress and contribute to wellbeing as part of aromatherapy. Add a handful of dried fragrant herbs to the warm water and enjoy their calming, or stimulating, effect.
Touch: Fluffy carpets dominate the home wellness oasis for a soft, pleasant feeling underneath bare feet. Accessories like soap dishes or faucets should also feel good to the touch. You can achieve this with high-quality, well-finished materials like cool stone, matte metal, or ceramics. For a feel-good experience, pamper yourself with massage showers, body scrubs, and loofah sponges.
Taste: Arrange snacks and drinks lovingly on a small side table. Now pick up a good book, put on your favorite music, and create a wonderful memory with the right taste on your lips.
