BATHROOM ART When choosing wall art, the creative homeowner is not limited to subjects traditionally chosen for specific rooms. In the bathroom pictures here, marine life subjects like fish, boats and sea shells are not an option. These Mediterranean bathroom designs are enhanced with architecture theme artwork and mirrors, old world style furniture and classic urns, vases and planters. |

DECORATING WITH BLUE AND BROWN IN THE BATHROOM
There is no mistaking the Mediterranean influence in the traditional bathroom pictured here. Tall ceilings, scrolls of wrought iron, artistic light fixtures with glass shades, dark wall faucetry and an elegant vessel sink create a style from times past. Traditional style can be rustic or refined but always exudes classic lines and a warm, casual ambience. Wood, iron, ceramic tile and natural stones like granite, slate and marble are construction materials that add authenticity to the traditional bath's heirloom style.
Whether decorating French country, traditional Italian or Spanish colonial, a sophisticated color palette of ivory and shades of brown allows accessories to take the lead in the introduction of color.
In this picture, shades of robin's egg blue and dark chocolate brown are seen in the bathroom towels as well as the ceramic pottery nesting above the linen cabinet.

Versatile iron wall decor stands alone as wall art, can be incorporated into architectural design and can be used as a backdrop to showcase other decorative accessories.
In bathrooms with high ceilings, ironwork can fill spaces above vanities, tubs and closets.

(PHOTO RIGHT) In the bathroom, arched iron wall art is placed on the wall behind the vanity and vanity mirror. Gentle curves are the story here as the wall decor is complimentary to the curves of the oval mirror and curves within the the vanity design. The wall decor is especially effective as it mirrors the arched door style entering the powder room.
