Beach Themed Bathroom Sinks
Today, we'll be covering how to achieve a beach themed bathroom. On Tuesday, I returned from an incredible vacation to Ocho Rios, Jamaica, and it has been a tough transition. Going from the Caribbean vibe everywhere I look to a void of ocean style has taken some adjustment. When I'm in a tropical location, my mood is brighter, my laugh is louder, my stress level is non-existant. That's when I decided that when you can't be in the tropics, you need to bring the tropics home to you by creating a beach themed bathroom!
There are many ways that you can take island style into your bathroom, a place that is built for relaxation. This room is already full of water & tile, two of the main components of the beach look, so you can create the look you're going for by making a few smart design decisions.
Beach Themed Bathroom Design: The Top 5 Elements
1. Tropical Tile
The first, and possibly best way to bring the Caribbean feel into your bathroom is by using interesting tile choices. Bathrooms by the beach are usually heavily tiled, to help with the cleanup of sand and water. Tile is a big design element in many other rooms in the tropics as well. Lively patterns or ocean inspired colors or patterns usually work very well to help you achieve the look you're going for.
This bathroom just screams beach themed. The blue green is very reminiscent of water, and added with the neutral tile accents, the desired look is achieved.
This is another great tile choice. The mosaic is often found in beach locations, and the movement in the pattern again reminds you of the feel of water.
This is my favorite tile choice, which very closely resembles the bathroom in my Jamaican paradise. Who can be sad looking at that pattern and gorgeous tropical blue? The open feel of the shower also gets you in the topical mood, blending outside with inside.
2. Foliage In The Bathroom
Jamaica means "The Land of Wood & Water" for obvious reasons. It is surrounded by water and has heavy forests all through the island. I love the green of the land paired with the blue of the sea. To do this is a non tropical location, you can simply add foliage and plant accents to your bathroom space to bring you back to the place that you call paradise.
This is one of the best that I've seen. The sanded bottom with the tree stump steps is genius. The open top also adds to the outdoor feel, but you can create this by painting your ceiling a bright white or even sky blue and adding faux posts. A simple wooden table acts as the perfect place for products.
This darker blue bathroom still evokes everything that makes me love the ocean. They have a limited amount of foliage in this bathroom, but it definitely does the trick. The taller plant is typical of what you would find in a beach location. The coral on the wall and shells on the sink top it off perfectly.
This is absolutely amazing and definitely a favorite of mine. The moss wall gives it the truly tropical style. My resort had an enormous wall of moss and several vertical gardens, so this look would be the perfect thing to remind me of the place I love so much. You can find out how to create your own moss wall here.
3. Perfect Paint Palettes
Paint color is another perfect way to create the beach themed bathroom you've been dreaming of. The bathrooms below don't go crazy with tile, just have the right paint colors with a few perfect beach themed accessories to tie it all together. Simple can be just as effective.
The light blues of the water & sky paired with the sandy color of the flooring, vanity and countertop are perfect.
The darker blue with the rope colored decals and shop accents make it the perfect sailors paradise.
These two similarly colored bathrooms add the perfect touch: beachy bead board. This is a simple but elegant touch that reminds us of effortless ocean style. Throw in perfect mirror & you're all set!
4. Vessel Sinks
As we covered in a recent bathroom design trends blog, the vessel sink is very popular this year. However, even if it goes out for bathrooms of all styles, it will always remain a beach bathroom favorite. Something about this look reminds me of island life.
We carry a very similar bamboo vessel sink that would be the perfect touch to your beach bath design.
Glass vessel sinks will always remain a popular choice for this look. Porcelain is also another very popular choice.
5. Nautical Neutrals
The sand is what makes the beach, the beach. Feeling it beneath our feet, warm with the sun, is one of those simple joys in life that you just can't get anywhere else. Taking sandy colors from the beach to your bathroom is a quick way to turn your powder room into paradise. The two below have done a great job of making an understated color the perfect backdrop in their bathroom. Again, adding a few nautical accents makes a big difference in giving you the theme you're looking for.
I hope that you've picked up some great ideas for your own beach themed bathroom! This is definitely one of my favorite styles that I hope you will enjoy as well.
