What makes a glam bathroom design?
Glamorous interiors are spaces that exude a luxurious feeling at a glance. They are of the utmost elegance, and every single detail is chosen with care. This trend is for those that absolutely love all things glitzy and pretty! The beautiful thing about this design style is that it’s essentially timeless. Thanks to the various tile types used – especially marble, pearl, or mirror – it makes it so easy for the space to be lived in and loved for years to come!
When thinking about a glam room, think of the pages of Vogue or Elle Decor. This bathroom style is all about luxury and opulence: marble countertops, his-and-hers sinks, a freestanding bathtub with gold fixtures, and even a chandelier. In short, it's a space where you can pamper yourself in style.
Tips to create a glamorous bathroom with tile
Now that you know what a glam bathroom is, we’re going to show you how you can create your very own glamorous bathroom with tile. With some know-how, it is very easy to design the perfect bathroom to make you feel like a Queen!
Make sure to choose the right tile style for your glam bathroom
This beautiful design uses a metallic free-standing tub and our gorgeous Frost Diamond Glass Mosaic Tile as an accent wall to tie the room together in the most magical way possible.
The first step in creating a glam bathroom with tiles is to choose the right style of tile. There are many different styles to choose from, so you're sure to find one that suits your taste. If you want a sleek and modern look, go for decorative glass or mirrored tiles. These will instantly elevate and heighten your space. In a literal way. Mirrored tiles provide the illusion of expansion, making even small rooms feel large. Since spaciousness is a key element of luxury bathrooms, mirror tiles can serve you well if your bathroom is on the cozier side.
For the real glitz lovers out there, you can fuse the beauty of the 1920s within your modern glam bathroom design with tiles. How? This design incorporates a beautiful marble-and-brass backsplash design behind its vanity while using a his-and-hers sink setup (a must have for glam bathrooms). The way the mirror duo and light fixtures work together with our very own Art Deco White Marble and Brass Inlay Mosaic Tile stuns even us!
For a more classic vibe, try natural stone or marble-look porcelain tiles. These tiles are effortlessly elegant and can make your space definitively beautiful in near to no time. Try for a Calacatta gold marble, with creamy swirls of golden hues throughout to match gold fixtures for a flawless feeling. For those that want something a bit more modern, white marble with brass inlay is a great option!
Plan out your tile layout
Once you've chosen the right style of tile, it's time to start planning your design. One of the best things about using tiles is that they can be used in almost any layout imaginable. You can create an all-over tiled effect, use them as a border around your bathtub or shower, or even create a statement wall.
The placement of tile will help you craft a genuinely unique glam bathroom design. While backsplash tiles are always a welcome addition to a bathroom, you don’t have to limit yourself. You can take things a step further and create an arch with a marble mosaic tile. Our Skyline White Marble Mosaic Tile adds detail and charm to this tiled alcove with a free-standing claw foot tub.
Add luxury with lighting!
One of the most important things to keep in mind when designing a glam bathroom is lighting. Lighting can make or break a space, so be sure to choose fixtures that will accentuate your tiles and make the space shine.
For those that prefer a non-traditional chandelier, take some inspiration from this bathroom’s use of sconce lighting. Thanks to the use of a Mother of Pearl accent wall behind the vanity and a truly glamorous bathroom mirror, the space only needed minimal lighting to complete the look!
Chandeliers are often the cornerstone of a glam bathroom. After all, they are synonymous with luxury and elegance – core elements of the design. However, fear not, if chandeliers aren’t quite your style, you can still enjoy the beauty of other lighting options. For instance, you can also go for more understated choices like wall sconces or pendant lights. With a variety of styles out there, you can find a look that’s still effortlessly luxurious!
A mix of lighting adorns this oversized glamorous bathroom! While our eyes are immediately drawn to the use of our Mother of Pearl Diamonds Mosaic Tile as an accent wall, we also can’t help but love the use of both elegant lighting sconces and a chandelier to amplify the dazzling wall tile. It’s a true partnership of overstated and understated that balance out in the most exquisite ways!
Accessorize, always.
When it comes to decorating your bathroom, don't forget about the finishing touches! Fixtures, towels, rugs, and shower accents are all great ways to add personality to the space. And when it comes to storage, there's no need to sacrifice style for function. Look for pretty trays or baskets to store your toiletries in, or opt for a sleek and chic vanity. With a few well-chosen accessories, you can easily transform your bathroom into a stylish and functional oasis.
Styling your bathroom vanity is the ultimate way to not only customize your glam bathroom, but make it shine! We love the use of furry throw pillows, metal chairs, lots of luxury candles, and flowers in a bathroom. Tile Club’s Gray Deco Fan Glass Mosaic Tile is a perfect match for this chic gray bathroom design.
