Furniture & Accents to Create a Contemporary Bathroom

Whether the underlying tone is casual or elegant, the contemporary furniture style creates a soothing ambiance through its neutral and black tones, accented by small splashes of bold color. Clean lines combined with strong horizontal and vertical elements, clutter-free spaces, and interesting textures define the fresh and sophisticated appeal of the contemporary furniture style. This minimalist look creates the perfect restful retreat for your kitchen, bathroom, bedroom or home office.

How to Create a Contemporary Bathroom

Imagine stepping foot onto light travertine flooring. To your right, the rich brown walls are accented with a beautiful cherry, built-in linen closet with a sophisticated cinnamon finish. This contemporary bathroom unit features simple, recessed panel doors with sleek satin nickel tapered bow pulls. Spacious cabinets overhead frame out the mirror area, while the storage cabinet in the center creates a beautiful focal point, keeping linens easily accessible behind simple etched glass doors. Pull-out drawers beneath feature wooden dividers to organize cosmetics and other toiletries. Beneath each sink you’ll find wooden base door storage racks to keep your most used toiletries within easy reach.

Recessed lighting accentuates the identical, shallow sink basins with matching chrome faucets, mirrors, and striking, black granite countertops. In keeping with the minimalist appeal of the contemporary furniture style, the countertops are tidy and bath linens and personal items are neatly stored out of the way within the contemporary bathroom cabinets.

A spacious bathtub is enclosed in a sleek surround made of the same cherry wood and cinnamon finish, and accentuated with black granite edging. Beside the bathtub is additional cabinetry, featuring the same simple crown molding, matching satin nickel pulls and convenient storage space. The top cabinets feature simple etched glass and interior cabinet lighting to showcase individual accent pieces, such as a sculpture or ceramic jar. To add to the contemporary style, open wine storage cabinets can be repurposed to store rolled up bath towels and linens that complement your color scheme.

Complete the Look of Your Contemporary Room

The number one rule to remember when decorating for a contemporary furniture style room is to keep it simple. To complete the look, accentuate your contemporary kitchen or bathroom with interesting graphic prints and bold artwork in matte black frames in simple groupings. Accent pieces have strong, distinctive shapes, such as large plants or flowers housed in geometrically-shaped pots or glass vases. For the floors, try plush rugs in solid colors or in striped or geometric patterns that complement your color scheme. Textured, two-tone drapes add the perfect finishing touch.
