Enhance your bathroom: modern and elegant fixtures
Bathroom
Buying guide
Transforming an ordinary bathroom into a refined space requires careful choices. Elegance does not depend on the size of your room, but on the harmony between style, colors, and lighting. We guide you through the essential elements for a successful transformation.

Define a consistent style: modern, natural, or classic.

Choosing a distinctive style determines the identity of your bathroom. Three approaches stand out in particular today.

Modern style: 

The modern style focuses on simplicity and functionality. Wall-mounted furniture with simple geometric shapes creates a feeling of space and lightness. Rectangular or square basins fit naturally into this refined aesthetic. This approach can even include connected equipment such as smart mirrors or touch-controlled showers.

The natural approach: 

The natural approach draws inspiration from raw materials. Wood, natural stone, and polished concrete create a soothing atmosphere that promotes relaxation. You can enhance this ambiance with details such as a strip of pebbles on the floor or moisture-resistant plants: ferns and ivy thrive in this type of environment.

The classic style: 

The classic style reinterprets timelessness with a contemporary twist. Natural wood flooring combined with light-colored walls creates a warm base, while rounded basins and freestanding bathtubs add the desired traditional character.

The key is to maintain consistency in all your choices to avoid combinations that would detract from the overall harmony.

Master neutral colors and contrasts

Colors define the atmosphere of your bathroom. Neutral shades form the basis of a successful design.

The range of natural tones—from beige to taupe, gray, camel, and ochre—creates a Zen atmosphere conducive to relaxation. These shades complement each other harmoniously and provide an immediate feeling of warmth.

For a more contemporary style, the black and white combination remains a safe bet. This graphic pairing gives the room character while ensuring lasting elegance.

If you want to incorporate color, aquatic blue-greens add visual intensity while maintaining a sense of serenity. Peacock blue, teal, or emerald green can be applied in matte paint to one or more walls to create an elegant focal point.

Current trends also include pale pink for a boudoir atmosphere or terracotta, which evokes Mediterranean vacations and fits in with the bohemian spirit.

Limit yourself to two or three colors maximum to preserve visual elegance. In a small bathroom, a single color applied throughout amplifies the impression of space.

 

Optimize lighting to enhance the space

Lighting transforms the perception of your bathroom. A methodical approach allows you to improve visual comfort while visually enlarging the space.

Start by installing diffused main lighting. A ceiling light or central LED panel distributes even light that eliminates shadows. For greater flexibility, choose a dimmer switch that adjusts the intensity according to your activities.

Add targeted lighting with recessed spotlights or wall lights above the mirror. These precise light sources are essential around the sink for facial care without distorting your features.

Ambient lighting adds the finishing touch. LED strips under wall-mounted cabinets, cornice light strips, or niche lighting in the shower create an enveloping atmosphere without visually overloading the space.

Choose neutral white LEDs around 4000K for balanced lighting that is perfect for a contemporary bathroom.

If your room has windows, maximize natural light with transparent partitions: glass roofs or walls allow light to flow through while preserving your privacy.

Well-designed lighting structures your space, highlights selected elements, and defines the overall ambiance of your bathroom.

Equipment that transforms your bathroom

Equipping your bathroom with the right elements makes all the difference. We guide you in choosing the three essential components that truly determine the comfort and aesthetics of your space.

Designer sinks: the focal point of your bathroom

Traditional sinks are giving way to designer basins, true centerpieces that set the tone for your decor. We have selected the most suitable materials for your needs.

Ceramic remains the most practical choice with its anti-limescale and scratch-resistant properties. It guarantees exceptional durability without compromising on aesthetics. For a contemporary style, synthetic resin offers a wide range of colors and shapes, while retaining a pleasant feel and simplified maintenance.

If you are looking for authenticity, natural stone offers unparalleled aesthetic appeal. It does require more careful maintenance, but the result is well worth the investment. Glass provides brightness and elegance, while concrete is perfectly in line with current trends with its shades ranging from light to dark.

Regarding shapes, you can choose between:

  • Round and oval models, easier to clean thanks to the absence of corners
  • Rectangular or square basins for a resolutely contemporary style
  • Installations to be installed for a striking decorative effect
  • Built-in models that make daily maintenance easier

Traditional colors such as white retain their appeal, but bold shades—black, gray, bright red, or luminous blue—create spaces with remarkable character.

Modern faucets: functionality and aesthetics combined

Today, faucets go beyond their simple utilitarian function to become decorative elements in their own right. Built-in mixer taps are a leading trend that frees up space while creating clean lines—particularly welcome in small bathrooms.

Finishes are also evolving. Classic chrome remains a safe bet, but brushed finishes are gaining popularity because they are more resistant to fingerprints and water marks. Colors such as matte black, brushed gold, or rose gold add undeniable sophistication to your decor.

For an even more modern style, frameless faucets amplify the feeling of space. These details transform the overall aesthetic of your bathroom in a remarkable way.

Walk-in showers and freestanding bathtubs: modern comfort

The walk-in shower is becoming increasingly popular in contemporary bathrooms. Its level access creates a smooth transition between spaces while accommodating people with reduced mobility. It is suitable for both small and spacious rooms.

You can customize it to suit your tastes: large-format tiles for a sleek look, zellige tiles for a handcrafted touch, or polished concrete for a modern finish. A transparent glass or skylight-style wall adds elegance and brightness to the whole space.

The freestanding bathtub, a symbol of luxury and relaxation, becomes the focal point of your bathroom. Whether rounded, rectangular, or oval, made of acrylic or mineral resin, it can be installed anywhere: in the center, in an alcove, or diagonally. This flexibility allows you to create a truly functional work of art.

These fixtures transform your daily routine, turning your bathroom into a true haven of well-being where comfort and functionality blend perfectly.

Accessories that make all the difference to your everyday well-being

Accessories transform your bathroom far beyond their simple practical function. We help you choose items that combine aesthetics and comfort to create a space where every detail contributes to your daily well-being.

Towel racks and dispensers: functional and stylish

Gone are the days of simple wall bars! Modern towel racks are becoming true decorative elements. Choose finishes that complement your faucets: matte black for a contemporary style, gold brass for a touch of warmth, or chrome for a timeless look.

Wall-mounted towel racks offer a particularly clever solution for small spaces. They free up floor space while creating elegant vertical storage for your towels.

For soap dispensers and soap dishes, choose models that are moisture-resistant and visually consistent with your other accessories. Some ingenious models even include a holder for small hand towels, maximizing functionality without cluttering the space.

Smart mirrors and storage solutions to optimize your routine

The mirror becomes smart and makes your daily routine easier. Versions with integrated LED lighting eliminate unpleasant shadows, while anti-fog functions save you time every morning.

Wall shelves create practical storage areas without getting in the way. Install them near the shower for your toiletries or above the sink for your daily care products. Built-in niches offer a particularly sleek solution that enhances the aesthetics of your space.

Even your trash can deserves your attention! Models with a soft-close system prevent unpleasant slamming, which is particularly appreciated if you have children. Choose a capacity that suits your needs: 3 to 5 liters for individual use, up to 18 liters for a family.

Vertical storage solutions to maximize space

The towel ladder is the trendy solution for making the most of the height in your bathroom. Natural wood for a warm atmosphere, teak for moisture resistance, or metal for a more modern look: each material brings its own personality to your decor.

Multifunctional models combine towel racks and shelves, creating a true vertical piece of furniture that optimizes every available inch. Some versions even include a heating system to dry your towels while warming the room.

For complete organization, designer laundry baskets made of solid wood or high-quality materials add the finishing touch to your interior design. Their soft-close system ensures quiet operation that respects the serenity of your wellness space.

These thoughtful choices create a bathroom where every daily task becomes more enjoyable, combining practicality and aesthetics for your optimal comfort.

Materials and finishes: create a bathroom that reflects your personality

Choosing the right materials transforms your bathroom beyond aesthetics. These elements define the atmosphere of your space and determine your daily comfort. Discover materials that combine beauty and practicality to create the ambiance you desire.

Natural wood, stone, polished concrete: authenticity and warmth

Natural wood immediately creates a feeling of warmth and well-being. Choose moisture-resistant woods such as teak or oak, which retain their beauty over time. A solid wood vanity unit or a few wall-mounted shelves are enough to warm up the atmosphere in your bathroom.

Natural stone gives your space a timeless character. Calacatta marble, with its delicate veins, creates a refined atmosphere that suits both classic and contemporary styles. For a bolder approach, Exotic Green marble brings striking visual intensity.

Waxed concrete is particularly versatile. This modern material can be used to cover your walls, floors, and even furniture, creating an elegant visual continuity. Its water resistance and ease of maintenance make it a wise choice for wet areas. Available in shades ranging from white to dark gray, it blends naturally with other materials.

Matte black metal, golden brass, frosted glass: modern sophistication

Metal finishes redefine the elegance of your bathroom. Matte black metal is a contemporary choice that visually structures the space. Faucets or accessories in this finish instantly become distinctive graphic elements.

Golden brass adds a touch of understated luxury that warms up the atmosphere. Its ability to delicately reflect light creates a welcoming ambiance. This material pairs perfectly with dark shades for a sophisticated look.

Frosted glass allows you to play subtly with natural light. Perfect for shower walls, it preserves your privacy while allowing up to 86% of light to pass through. Its satin texture provides a pleasant contrast to smooth surfaces.

Combine textures for a unique look

The art of creating a successful bathroom lies in the harmonious combination of materials. A polished concrete floor enhanced by a natural stone accent wall creates a captivating visual dialogue between smooth and textured surfaces.

To balance your composition, frosted glass bridges the gap between raw materials and industrial finishes. Gold-plated brass accessories on a waxed concrete wall create a striking contrast between the modernity of the material and the warmth of the metal.

Classic black and white combinations remain timeless. Adding intermediate shades such as wood or beige stone enriches this palette while preserving its elegance. For example, a polished stone basin on a waxed concrete countertop creates a focal point that structures your entire space.

Remember that every detail counts. Tile grout, cabinet handles, and even mirror mounts contribute to the overall harmony of your bathroom.

Modern technologies for a connected bathroom

Modern technology now makes it possible to create a smart bathroom that adapts entirely to your daily habits. These innovations are not just aesthetic: they tangibly improve your comfort and simplify your morning routine.

Smart toilets and showers

The smart toilet with bidet function stands out as the most remarkable piece of equipment in this technological evolution. Originally from Switzerland but popularized in Japan, it is now gaining ground in Belgium. These new-generation toilets incorporate advanced features such as water washing, rinsing, drying, and sometimes even automatic flushing. Some models also offer a heated seat, a deodorization system, and voice control.

This equipment provides a level of comfort that is particularly appreciated by elderly people or those with reduced mobility. However, its installation requires special attention to electrical safety in wet areas.

LED mood lighting and connected mirrors

Smart LED lighting allows you to easily adjust brightness and color temperature to suit your daily activities. You can create a soft ambiance for a relaxing evening bath or brighter lighting to get ready in the morning.

The smart mirror is quickly becoming the centerpiece of your modern bathroom. Equipped with motion-sensor lighting, an automatic anti-fog system, and Bluetooth connectivity to stream your favorite music, it can also display the weather, time, or your notifications. The most sophisticated models even offer beauty tips based on an analysis of your skin.

Home automation: remote control and customized scenarios

Home automation in the bathroom allows you to control all your equipment for comfort and simplicity. You can program your towel warmer to turn on automatically before your morning shower.

Systems such as GROHE Sense Guard detect leaks and shut off the water supply, even when you are away. These devices also monitor your daily, weekly, or monthly water consumption, helping you optimize your usage and save money.

The real magic happens when these devices communicate with each other. A simple motion detector can trigger different scenarios: gradually turning on the lights, starting the heating, or activating your favorite playlist—all of which can be customized to your preferences.

Optimize your space without compromising on style

Making the most of every square inch requires a thoughtful approach. Fortunately, modern solutions allow you to maximize available space while maintaining a refined aesthetic.

Wall-mounted furniture and clever storage solutions

Wall-mounted furniture instantly creates a feeling of space by freeing up floor space. This visual trick lightens the room while simplifying daily maintenance. Choose cabinets equipped with soft-close drawers that combine practicality with a neat finish.

Half-height columns offer an excellent balance between storage capacity and visual lightness. For small spaces, opt for custom built-in storage that makes clever use of every available corner. Built-in cabinets between two walls or under the eaves transform wasted space into functional storage areas.

Wall niches: discreet elegance

Wall niches are a great alternative to traditional shelves. Built directly into shower walls or above bathtubs, they provide discreet storage space without getting in the way.

Adding indirect LED lighting inside these alcoves enhances their contours while adding an architectural dimension to your bathroom. This elegant solution maintains the clean lines of your decor.

Practical solutions for small spaces

Every detail counts in a compact bathroom. Choose light colors that naturally reflect light and visually enlarge the space. A large mirror dramatically amplifies this feeling of openness.

Opt for a walk-in shower with a transparent screen to maintain visual fluidity. Multifunctional solutions such as a washbasin with built-in storage or a bathtub with a storage shelf optimize ergonomics without compromising aesthetics.

These smart designs prove that limited space does not mean compromising on style.

Create your own daily wellness space

Your bathroom deserves special attention. After all, it's the room where you start and end each day. The modern fixtures we've presented allow you to create a space that combines comfort and practicality.

Designer basins, elegant faucets, and contemporary shower solutions enhance your daily life while adding a refined aesthetic. These choices of fixtures, combined with the right materials, make all the difference in your everyday experience.

Even in small spaces, optimization solutions such as wall-mounted furniture and built-in storage allow you to maintain order without sacrificing style. Every inch counts and can be put to good use.
