You don't want to give in to current trends and furnish yours bathroom with a minimal style? Or do you like the classic style but don't know how to balance the furnishings?

The ancient style is undoubtedly the style that is preferred when you don't particularly like the modern one; the first warmer and enveloping, the other more minimal and detached. The latest trends, however, lead us towards a "hybrid" current where classic shapes are contaminated by more contemporary objects and accessories, giving life to a unique space.

To furnish the bathroom in an antique style it is very important to pay attention to details: warm tones for the coverings, wooden furnishings, bathroom fixtures with delicate shapes and refined accessories.

As far as covering materials are concerned, you are spoiled for choice: from wooden parquet to marble, which has become very fashionable again. For the colors it is essential to stick to soft colors: in addition to the classic white you can opt for shadesà pastel towards pink and beige. Solid colors are perfect for curtains around the tub, combined with a soft patterned carpet. Focus on the details: the linen must in fact be impactful and colored with the most diverse patterns.

The design of the sanitary fixtures is very important and must favor classic taste, therefore making room for objects with full and important shapes. The arrangement of bathroom fixtures and furniture is also very important in the design of an antique bathroom, the tub should be positioned in the center of the room, or in masonry, the taps are indicated in brass, the classic white ceramic sink resting on two legs; these are just some of the examples capable of giving the bathroom a perfect vintage setting.

Without being intimidated by small spaces, placing a chest of drawers to store linen is ideal in this style. The priority is the surface which must appear antiqued thanks to the skilled work of the craftsmen.

Cabinets are ideal for the bathroom: vintage pieces can easily be found at flea markets or antique shops. However, they must be simple and functional furnishing elements. You can also dare with high-value pieces, dating back to more ancient times, when you want to make the bathroom a luxury room. The mirror cannot be missing, which must be chosen carefully and must always have a frame. Much of the charm that you will be able to give to the environment will depend on its breadth, size and shape. A highly sought after piece is an old wooden ladder that serves as a towel hanger. Easy to recover, it will become a complement that will give particularity to the bathroom, making it unique.

We shouldn't forget the lighting either: a showy chandelier that is the protagonist in our bathroom is ideal for recalling the ancient style. No LEDs or spotlights: they are typical of the modern style!
