Step into another world every time you go to the bathroom.

The bathroom is arguably one of the most important rooms in the entire household if you ask me. OK so it is important to have somewhere to prepare your food and store your supplies and of course we all need a place to sleep; but there is something rather special about the bathroom that is often neglected.

The bathroom is a place where you can truly bask in privacy and relax for a little while after a long and difficult day at work. A sanctuary where you prepare yourself in the mornings and where you are able relieve yourself of all of the unnecessary things that your body is better off without – stress being among them.

The fact that you are here reading this means that you are more than likely looking to renovate and update your bathroom and you’re in need of some inspiration on what direction to take it. (That or you’re obsessed with reading about bathrooms!) I have been doing some research into the various styles that people incorporate into their modern bathrooms and I have come across some beautiful ideas that I would love to share with you all. I have become particular fascinated by Arabic design and how spectacularly their interior design reflects such a beautiful culture.

As you can see from the image above (courtesy of Elle Decor), this bathroom design is wonderfully vibrant and colourful with an evident middle-eastern vibe that really sets a tranquil tone throughout. The classic, mosaic styled tiling gives off a sophisticated and weathered vibe that truly brings character to this little bathroom. With surfaces like this throughout the bathroom, not only is there a tasteful consistency but it will also be a significant amount easier to clean and maintain.

This style of bathroom might be a little out of your price range or perhaps you’ll find that it will feel incredibly out of place within your home, however there are certainly aspects of this bathroom that can be incorporated into a more westernised design.

The most prominent feature in this bathroom as you may notice are the stunning pillars that stand behind the stunning step-in tub. These pillars create an almost regal atmosphere and most definitely introduce an air of wealth and class into the bathroom. Notice the beautiful tiled flooring and the simply breath-taking tile-bordered pictures that cover the walls.

Just imagine hosting a dinner party with your friends and being able to show this gorgeous bathroom off to them. It would be like stepping into an entirely different world. Simply by looking at some of these wonderful images I am filled with a sense of calm. If I were the proud owner of a lovely Arab styled bathroom like the above; I’d spend a great deal more time in the bath that’s for sure.
