A modern bathroom is trendy, sophisticated, and free of frills, flowers and lace. Sleek lines and a simple color palette is what sets a modern design theme apart from the others. While this type of design them may resemble a room seen exclusively in upscale homes, this certainly doesn’t have to be the case. Like anything else, if you know where to look, you can find modern bath accessories for a reasonable price. Consider the recommendations we’ve provided below and get more for your money when decorating a modern bathroom.
When shopping for modern bath accessories, keep in mind one very important rule. Always stay true to one particular finish. This includes everything from the sink faucet and vanity lighting, to cabinet hardware and functional accessories. In other words, if your towel bars are made of brushed nickel, everything else in the room should be as well. It’s perfectly acceptable to include other materials in the room, such as glass, bamboo, steel, and so on, just be sure that they don’t mix finishes.

Towels and rugs – Frequent use of geometrical shapes and bold color are commonly seen in a modern bathroom design. Keep in mind, however, that there is much truth in the saying ‘too much of a good thing.’ Don’t overwhelm the room with an abundance of color and shapes. I recommend using either pattern on the towels or pattern on the rugs. Choose a pattern that appeals to you and use it in one area of the room. Then, select a coordinating solid print that will complement the colors in the patterned fabric.
