Tips on Creating a Focal Point During Your Bathroom Remodel

What immediately catches your eye the moment you walk into your bathroom? Every great bathroom design has one element that creates a focal point that commands your attention. Whether it's bold cabinetry, colorful tiles, or even dramatic countertops, choosing the right additions can make a statement without feeling overwhelming. 

In this blog, we're highlighting a few ways you can create a visually appealing focal point in your bathroom while staying true to your personal style. 

Use colorful tiles to make a statement

Incorporating tiles and backsplashes into your bathroom design can add a dramatic flair to your space. Since they're used behind tubs, showers, and vanities, they immediately catch your attention. 

Tile's versatility in size, color, and pattern can help you make a bold statement or add subtle character. Subway tiles provide a sleek, timeless look that can complement several different design aesthetics. If you want something bold and colorful, mosaic tiles come in a variety of unique, eye-catching patterns. 

If you're looking to add subtle character and movement to your space, herringbone and hexagon tiles naturally draw the eye without feeling overwhelming. To create a spa-like atmosphere in your bathroom, Renzzo tiles elevate your space to give it a luxurious feel. 

When you treat your tile as the main focal point of your bathroom, you can create a cohesive design that works well with your unique style. 

Bold cabinetry choices create stunning centerpieces 

Bathroom cabinets often take center stage in any space by being one of the first features that catches your eye when you walk into the room. Investing in custom cabinetry can be a simple way to create a focal point that pairs well with the rest of your design choices. 

Making customizations gives you the ability to choose the finishes, hardware, and style to reflect your personality. You can opt for navy, gray, or black painted cabinets to make a bold statement, or you can choose something more subtle like greige or beige. Natural wood cabinets can be a great choice, adding an organic charm to your space. 

Whatever design choices you make, the result is cabinetry that feels intentional and true to your style. With bold color choices and custom details, your vanity becomes a functional centerpiece and visually pleasing focal point. 

Don’t underestimate your countertop choices 

Countertops can have a bigger impact on your bathroom than you may realize. With a wide range of quartz and granite options, you can easily find a stone lab that fits your design needs.

If you want to make a statement and use your countertops as a focal point, you can look for slabs that have dramatic veining or unique color variations. 

For a more subtle look, you can opt for neutrals that blend seamlessly with the rest of your bathroom. Granite and quartz's versatility can enhance your bathroom to create a look that reflects your style.

Another way to create a focal point with your countertop is by choosing unique edge profiles. Some common countertop edge profiles include:

  • Beveled

  • Square

  • Bull-nose

  • Ogee

  • Eased

These finishing details add personality to your space, which can turn a simple countertop into a beautiful, stunning focal point.
