Interested in remodeling your bathroom? The Victorian era remains a popular inspiration for modern bathroom design. This look can be elegant and functional without breaking the bank. Below are several helpful tips to help you evoke the era.

3 Ideas for Victorian-Inspired Bathroom Design

1. Invest in a Signature Tub

A beautiful, porcelain clawfoot tub is a signature piece of Victorian-style bathrooms. From ornate dragon talons to subtle lion paws, there are a wide variety of clawfoot looks available to suit your style and design preferences. Traditionally, these tubs were taller on one side, which gave the bather a place to rest their head. As a bonus, these tubs are good at retaining warmth, allowing you to stay comfortable and relaxed in your bath for longer periods.

2. Install Artistic Tiles

Installed to create repeating patterns, encaustic tiles helped Victorians achieve the bold look they desired for their flooring. When choosing this look for your bathroom design, let the floor speak for itself by keeping other elements minimal. Clear glass shower doors and simple light fixtures, for example, complement this striking design choice.

3. Find an Ornate Mirror

You can also check out your local antique shop for vintage mirrors that give off that royalty vibe. Keep the frame and replace the mirror with a new one for a clear reflection.
