The walls, the floor, the furniture and the decoration have an important role in creating harmony and a rustic feeling.

A rustic bathroom is characterized by the use of smooth and rounded lines, and the abundance of details and textures.

Everything that recreates a country, garden environment in terms of colors, materials or decoration, will fit well in the rustic style.

The main characteristic of this style of decoration is the way it manages to combine different natural elements in perfect harmony, creating a cozy atmosphere in a space as private as the home bathroom.

To give that rustic appearance that provokes the feeling of being in the countryside, the main thing is the bathroom furniture. The style of rustic bathroom furniture moves between vintage and natural. Here, the wood must have a fairly pure appearance, no lacquered or overly treated finishes, the more natural the appearance of the wood the better it will be for the composition that you want to achieve.

With the rise of the vintage or cottage style to decorate homes it is very easy to get rustic bathroom furniture, with an aged or poorly treated look. Normally this type of furniture is only treated with a layer of varnish to protect the wood and those that are painted usually have a crackle or matte finish in very soft and subdued colors.

The color and texture of the tiles also play an important role. If you are looking for a rustic yet delicate look, smooth mosaic tiles are the ideal choice. This style of tile creates a very beautiful appearance when combined with monochrome tiles also with a smooth texture; the important thing is that both the colors of the mosaic tiles and the monochrome tile complement each other.

The most daring and lovers of rustic style can go one step further and lay stone tiles. With reliefs, cracks, limestone, or porous texture, the brick is very popular and some people also put wood on the walls. Everything will depend on whether you are looking for a more romantic or rudimentary style.

Small decorative elements such as embroidered curtains, farm flowers, vintage-looking faucets in ocher or gold, etc. will go a long way in decorating your rustic bathroom.

Of course, a very important detail in this style of bathroom is to place a bathtub instead of a shower tray, although of course it can be modernized by placing a shower where the bathtub should be.

If this style is what you want for your new bathroom, we invite you to see the following examples, where we give you 24 ideas that you can use to inspire you to create your own rustic bathroom.
