Best New Bathrooms Ideas

FLORAL BATHTUB

Designer Kathryn M. Ireland's Greta background in Reverse Green adds appeal into a guest bath in a Cape Cod getaway. The slipper seat is covered in Red in her Roses linen.

SWIRLING BLUE

Java Grande wallpaper from China Seas is a bold background for a Florida house's powder room. The mirror is vintage. Restoration Hardware, Gramercy Glass washstand.

TRELLIS ACCENTS

Chinoiserie meets orangery in the trellis-accented powder room, together with millwork by Philippe Le Manach of Accents of France. The walls are painted in Dix Blue and treillage in Plummett, both by Farrow & Ball. The lantern above is from Charles Edwards.

SUNNY POOL HOUSE

Guests at a North Carolina house made by MA Allen pop in this changing place before hitting the pool. A built-in seat doubles as storage space for towels, and a gooseneck lighting fixture from Barn Electric Co. brightens the CB2 mirror.

GRANDFATHER CLOCK

Fill a narrow stretch of wall using an heirloom-worthy, grandfather-style clock. You'll learn you're running in style.
