Bathrooms can be so boring. Everyone seems to have the same design, with white fittings, neutral paint and laminate floors. If you have a flamboyant personality, why not let your bathroom reflect who you are? Chuck out the beige paint, stop playing it safe, and get inspired by these ideas for bathrooms with a difference:
Bathrooms: Retro Cool
If you love retro styles, why not create a bathroom to reflect your tastes? If your bathroom is well-ventilated, put up some of the retro-cool wallpaper that is coming back into fashion (Habitat do a great range), otherwise paint in a bold colour like blue or red. Source some great retro accClick and Clean. The lower wheels and panels can be released to expose the for thorough cleaning. Panel then easily clicks back into position to ensure a water tight seal.essories like a 70's mirror, a cool rug, and patterned towels. A great touch for retro bathrooms are framed pictures of album artwork from the sixties and seventies.
Bathrooms: Back in Time
Take your bathroom's image back to the Victorian era with a free-standing bath tub (with clawed or ball feet if possible). Use gold or bronze taps, add ornamental cornices to the ceilings and corners, add stained glass window panels, and source pretty decorative items such as cane chairs, oriental rugs and gathered curtains in lace. Use a light paint with an antiquing colour wash on the walls, then stencil in Victorian floral patterns in a soft dusky pink.
Bathrooms: Hippy Chic
If you're more of a bohemian type, decorate your bathroom in a hippy chic style. Paint the walls purple or dark maroon, find an ethnic light shade and rug, hang pictures of India and Thailand on the wall, and scatter the bathroom with candles and incense burners.
Bathrooms: Go Wild
Unleash the tiger in you and go wild with animal prints in your bathrooms! This style is not for the faint-hearted, but if you think you can handle it, put zebra or tiger print wallpaper up on one wall (doing all of them would be over-kill), buy matching animal-print bath mat and towels, and get a fabulously OTT gold mirror to complete the glam effect.
Bathrooms: Country Living
Keep up with the neighbours with an extra posh bathroom, perfect for countryside lovers. Think either cosy cottage style or luxurious country mansion, depending on your tastes. For the cute cottage effect, find a simple white suite with soft lines and a free standing white ceramic bath. Use light paints on the walls, with a country-themed stencil such as horses or ducks.

For the mansion bathroom, fit a large sunken bath with gold taps, use marble or chequered flooring, have a thick rug, soft fluffy towels and a gold-leafed mirror.
