The Art Deco period was known for being a little over-the-top. The Art Deco movement was chiefly about three things: it was sleek in its commitment to clean lines and geometrical shapes, it was kitschy in its love of striking colors and stylized prints, and it was glamorous in its appreciation for luxurious materials. This trifecta makes the Art Deco look a little tough to pull off, albeit truly special when done right. Increasingly, designers are sneaking the aesthetic into spots where you’d least expect it—like the bathroom.

With a bold mirror, some printed wallpaper, and a striking chandelier, you can piece together an Art Deco time capsule that leaves even your toilet looking glamorous. Several designers have braved the Art Deco bathroom, and they’ve blessed us with plenty of Art Deco bathroom ideas worth emulating.

01 Commit to a Striking Tile Color

Art Deco is all about crisp shapes and bold colors, so don’t be afraid to go big with your palette. Stock up on tiles in a shade you love looking at and turn your entire shower into a pop of color. And remember, striking doesn’t have to mean bright, though it definitely can if you want it to.

02 Go Bold With Your Color Scheme

The Art Deco period was a particularly color-filled moment, and pops of color aren’t the only way to pay homage to the era’s palette. If you don’t mind making a statement, consider going all-in on one striking shade. Make your space feel even more Art Deco with a bold light fixture and some eye-catching printed tiles.

03 Flank Your Mirror With Sconces

Symmetry is huge in any Art Deco design scheme, and while there are plenty of ways to make your space look symmetrical, flanking your mirror with sconces is a particularly eye-catching one. By placing two matching accents so close together, you’ll draw attention to the symmetry you’ve created, making your design choice striking, rather than subtle.

04 Bring a Print Into Your Shower

When it comes to outfitting your shower, you don’t have to commit to just one tile style. In fact, if you’re crafting an Art Deco bathroom, you may want to weave in other prints, colors, and textures.

05 Put a Marble Inlay in Your Shower

Few things scream Art Deco like a marble inlay in a shower. Why? Marble is a luxurious material that pays homage to the glamour of the era. And, depending on the way you structure your inlay, you can also nod to Art Deco’s sleek lines and stepped forms.

06 Pick Sconces as Tall as Your Mirrors

Your sconces can be any size, but if you want to play up the Art Deco accents in your space, consider snagging sconces that are as tall as your mirrors. This will put your sconces and your mirrors on the same plane, creating an implied pattern out of simple bathroom décor.

07 Layer in Some Stylized Florals

After all this talk of geometry, you may be shocked to hear that floral prints are welcome in an Art Deco space, but that’s the truth. Of course, not all florals fit this bill, but some more stylized options do, and they pair magnificently with crisp lines and shape-filled patterns.

08 Keep Things Symmetrical

When in doubt, look for ways to add symmetry, as it’s easy to attain. And if you do it obviously enough, it’ll nod to Art Deco—even if you’ve mixed other aesthetics into your space.

But how do you do it obviously? Work in twos. Split one sprawling wall mirror into two smaller matching mirrors, then pair those mirrors with matching sinks and vanity cabinets. If you really want to hammer your point home, add even more symmetrical pairs. Hang matching pendant lights on either side of each mirror, or flank each mirror with a pair of matching sconces.

09 Go All in on Marble

Marble makes a luxurious addition to any bathroom, and since Art Deco is inherently glamorous, it suits the aesthetic perfectly. Invest in marble countertops or splurge on marble floors, and if you really want to kick things up a notch, you can line your walls with marble, too.

10 Give Chevron a Chance

Chevron—a zigzag-like pattern formed by inverted Vs—had a serious moment in the mid-2010s. And fun fact: it also had a moment in the Art Deco period. So, let go of any preconceived notions you have about the pattern, and consider welcoming it into your space.
