After a long day at work or carting around the kids, what could be better than a spa-night at home? Laurel Design Collective is based in the vibrant city of Portland, Oregon surrounded by all of the natural beauty, creative energy, and innovating companies. We’re all about crafting unique and luxurious spaces that elevate your daily life. One area where you can truly embrace opulence and relaxation is the bathroom. A thoughtful bathroom design transforms your home into a personal sanctuary, offering a spa-like escape that promotes self-care and tranquility, leaving you refreshed for the next busy day’s activities.
Embracing Luxurious Materials
When it comes to luxury bathrooms, the right materials set the tone for sophistication and style. At Laurel Design Collective, we believe that selecting high-quality materials is key to turning an ordinary bathroom into a breathtaking retreat.
Natural Stone
Timeless and elegant, natural stone brings a touch of grandeur to any bathroom. Think stunning marble countertops, exquisite flooring, and slab stone walls in the shower (no more grout to clean!). The unique veining and textures in natural stone evoke a luxurious ambiance, making your bathroom feel like a five-star spa. You can go with dynamic patterns for an energizing feel or more calm and subtle veining that leans into the relaxation.
With stone cutters using more and more of today’s cutting edge technology, we have the ability to create some amazing things from stone – think entire vanities including the drawerfronts cut from a slab of marble, the veining all perfectly aligned.
High-End Fixtures
Elevate your bathroom’s aesthetic with high-end fixtures that give your space a uniquely luxurious feel. Opt for faucets and shower heads in live finishes like polished nickel or unlacquered brass, which develop a beautiful patina over time. Freestanding soaking tubs, rainfall shower heads, and custom vanities add to that indulgent spa experience.
Don’t forget about lighting! Thoughtful illumination is essential—think elegant sconces, eye-catching chandeliers, and backlit mirrors that cast a warm glow, enhancing the overall vibe. We love to layer lighting so you have all the options. Glowing light to put on make up where you need it and softer mood lighting for those relaxing baths.
Creating a Relaxing Atmosphere
Your luxury bathroom should be a peaceful retreat where you can unwind and rejuvenate. Smart design choices can foster a calming atmosphere that enhances relaxation.
Color and Texture
Color plays a pivotal role in setting the mood. Soft, muted tones—like gentle blues, greens, and earthy neutrals—evoke tranquility. Bolder colors can energize you.
We love to incorporate textures through plush towels, organic cotton bath mats, and woven baskets to add warmth and comfort to our bathrooms.
Bringing in natural elements like plants or wooden accents creating a seamless connection to the outdoors. Low-maintenance succulents or leafy greens thrive in bathrooms, adding vibrant pops of color and life. Better yet, let’s design a space that opens to a private garden filled with plants and an outdoor shower and tub for the ultimate relaxation.
Smart Technology
Embrace the convenience of smart technology to enhance your bathroom’s luxury. Heated floors are a must for colder climates, smart mirrors that adjust lighting and display weather updates keep you in the know, and advanced steam shower systems with customizable settings relax every part of your body. These features elevate your experience while making life easier and more comfortable.
Luxurious Amenities and Features
To create that true spa-like experience, consider incorporating luxurious amenities that enhance relaxation and self-care. Just be warned—you might create a space so inviting that everyone in the house wants to join you! Don’t worry, we’ll put a lock on the door!
Spa-Like Showers and Tubs
Transform your daily routine into a rejuvenating ritual with a high-end shower experience. Picture a walk-in shower equipped with multiple heads—rainfall and handheld options included! Glass enclosures and natural stone finishes add elegance and sophistication.
And let’s not forget the freestanding soaking tub—a stunning centerpiece that beckons relaxation. Position it by a window to soak in natural light and views, and consider features like hydro-, thermal- or aroma-therapy for the ultimate indulgence. We love a little table for your wine glass and book. Once you’re in the tub, you’re not getting out any time soon!
If you really want to elevate your self-care game, consider adding a sauna! Perfect for those chilly Pacific Northwest winters, a sauna provides a cozy escape from the cold. Even a small space can accommodate one, making it a luxurious addition to any home.
Personalized Storage Solutions
A luxurious bathroom should also prioritize organization and functionality. Custom cabinetry and seamless built-in storage solutions keep your space clutter-free while adding a sophisticated touch.
Our team will work closely with you to design dedicated spaces for towels, toiletries, and personal items, ensuring everything has its place. Decorative baskets and stylish trays not only enhance aesthetics but also serve practical purposes, creating a harmonious balance in your spa-like retreat.
