Luxury in the bathroom: Accessories that leave nothing to be desired
In 1994, star interior designer Philippe Starck set off a design revolution with his “living room/bathroom.” Since then, the traditional wet cell has presented itself with a new self-confidence and plenty of luxury. Modern bathrooms not only meet the highest standards of quality, they are also aesthetically pleasing. At the same time, high-quality bathroom accessories combine a luxury look with suitability for everyday use: they are resistant to moisture and corrosion, less susceptible to mold and mildew, and easy to clean.
The right accessories for every interior style
These special extras are available in a wide variety of designs – from tried-and-tested classics to award-winning, up-and-coming designs. The choice of materials is a question of personal style. Is your bathroom purist? Then cool stainless steel, natural stone, concrete, or glass are suitable picks. Do you like it natural? Choose products made of wood or bamboo fiber. However, style breaks that set accents are also allowed in the accessories. Entire outfits, from the towel bar to the toilet brush, are often available from a single product range. You decide whether to stick to the series or put together your designer accessories individually.
Everything you need – and more
You always need the essentials. Go for accessories that make your desired style a matter of course:
Soap dispensers come in all shapes, made of high-quality materials with a luxurious finish. Alternative: an expensive bar of soap on an elegant soap dish – made of gold-plated brass, for example. Diatomite is an outstanding material: This sedimentary rock from Japan absorbs moisture completely – keeping your expensive soap dry.
Towel bars are in a class of their own. They come as hooks, bars, towel racks, or towel ladders. Finishes range from matte-black or matte-white powder-coated brass to gleaming chrome and exquisite gold looks. One exceptional option: a ceiling-mounted pendant shelf with integrated towel bar, where products seem to float in the air.
Toilet paper holders are also available in very luxurious designs – for example, elegant in shiny gold stainless steel and black glass with an additional box for wet wipes. Roll holders with a built-in smartphone shelf also offer a practical two-in-one function. The dominant material is metal with a high-quality finish. Combinations with colored glass or wood are also available.
These combos can also elevate cosmetic bins: made of high-quality Makassar wood and high-gloss stainless steel, or matte brushed metal with black glass, they can become luxury bathroom accessories. If you prefer pedal bins, pick a high-quality variant with soft-close function.
Designer accessories are now available in all product categories – even shower squeegees. Streamlined down to its basic form, the device is now available, for example, with a visually upscale silicone coating in matte white or matte black. Fastened with several hidden magnets and integrated into a laser-engraved stainless steel soap dish, it’s even an award-winner.
The nice-to-haves for that extra comfort and convenience
Some accessories are luxuries that you don’t necessarily need. But they do make life more pleasant – and round out your interior design:
Premium storage containers made of glass, porcelain, or natural stone provide elegant order on and next to the bathroom sink.
Luxurious marble and brass vanity mirrors or two-tone touch control LED lighting make even daily shaves a pleasure.
A towel ladder with integrated shelves simultaneously accommodates creams, shampoo, and other cosmetics.
Shelves in the shower are extremely practical. Implemented as minimalist wall niches, they’re also a design element at the same time.
Laundry bins make sense. As accessories, they become eye-catchers when they are made of solid wood with soft-close system or crafted from the finest cowhide.
Not necessary, but hard to imagine life without them once you get used to them: modern bathroom electronics. The hairdryer is stylish and has an ionic, intelligent temperature control. The matte black, high-end -toothbrush uses ultrasound. The designer razor charges on a wireless charging station – next to your smartphone.
The dark, fine wood of the bath tub shelf creates a beautiful contrast with the white.
Precious cosmetic items as accessories on the sink: luxury shaving set and toiletry bag made of fine leather.
The towel ladder made of matte-black powder-coated metal fits perfectly into this puristic room.
More like a living room: Premium accessories spread casually around the room make luxury look cool.
