Best New Bathrooms Ideas

WHITE AND BLACK

Designers Ray Booth and Elizabeth Kennedy under-mounted twin Kathryn sinks from Kohler in this master bath. The faucets are from Kallista and the habit cushions are by McAlpine.

TROPICAL REEF

Background by Fornasetti for Cole & Son adds a lively note into a Bahamian bathroom.

FARMHOUSE STYLE

Nothing says "rustic" more than chicken wire. Use the screening in place of glass cabinet doors to up the nation feel and show off heaps of towels.

FLORAL CHANDELIER

Mirrors, marble and sunlight brings sparkle to a recently enlarged master bath. The Texas house's garden motif is echoed in Nina Campbell's Orchard Blossom background and Canopy Designs' custom-colored ceramic branch chandelier.

MODERN ZEN

"The threat of doing a contemporary bathroom is that it can feel cold," says Pamela Butz, that remodeled this house near Boston with partner Jeffrey Klug. Their answer was a layout that errs on the side of simplicity, but with beautiful, natural materials that "speak for themselves."
