Kohler is celebrating more than 140 years of setting standards of excellence and pushing the limits of design. Whether it’s creating kitchen and bath fittings, tile and furniture collections, engines and generators, or five-star resorts and championship golf courses, Kohler’s groundbreaking work is born from a desire to design experiences that fulfill their ultimate mission of ‘gracious living.’
Here, Kohler shares its tips on how to style bathrooms with Downtown Design, by paying particular attention to balance, scheme, and product choice.
Space-savers
When designing bathrooms, it pays to focus on small changes that can have a large impact. A small space can appear much more expansive when you position the products in a way that makes your daily routine seem just as elegant as it is efficient.
Tailor-made storage solutions
Customise your vanity with shelves, drawers and integrated electrical outlets that simplify your morning ritual and keep your countertops free of clutter. To add some sparkle, you can also create a unique look by choosing different finishes or colours.
Colour Coordination
Choosing the right colour palette can unify your bathroom scheme. You could go for a subtle look by opting for clean, neutral tones, or go bolder with dramatic hues and graphic patterns. There are a variety of possibilities – Kohler recommends forms and colours that complement each other to create the desired feel and effect you are looking for.
Play with texture
Although a bathroom’s options may be more limited than that of your living room, this doesn’t mean you cannot be playful with the way you mix materials such as tiles or types of woods. The Briolette glass sink, for instance, takes an intricately faceted form that is inspired by the precisely cut surfaces of precious stone. Its gently curved walls highlight the natural textural qualities of glass and create a striking reflective effect.
Accessorize
Add touches of colour, pattern and personality to your bathroom with shower curtains, towels, storage baskets and soap dispensers.
Get Smart
Add a Touchless flush kit for a no-touch (and more hygienic) way to flush in your home. Not only is it hands-free and sleek, but the Veil Intelligent Toilet also has bidet features and an LED nightlight, all operated by a touchscreen remote control.
Add an element of fun
Brighten up your shower with a colourful showerhead that also comes with an in-built wireless speaker. The Moxie can stream up to seven hours of tunes directly from your smartphone or tablet, lending a musical atmosphere to your shower.
