Design features for a traditional bathroom

What are the key things you should include in a traditional bathroom? Well, here are some fixtures and features that are key to creating the right effect:

  • Pedestal sink- choose a pedestal sink with embellishments and detail that will suit your bathroom
  • Slipper bath- a traditional slipper bath, originally a Victorian design can be the perfect touch to a traditional bathroom, and it makes a stunning centre piece. With one side higher than the other, the bath is visually interesting as well as incredibly practical
  • Roll top bath- another freestanding bath option is the roll top bath. With clawed feet and a rolled edge, this type of bath was designed for luxury and elegance. The bath will really stand out, while fitting in, with your traditional kitchen.
  • Victorian shower- if you don’t have the space for a bath, choose a Victorian shower style with a round, overhead shower-head for the perfect traditional shower.
  • High tank toilet- a toilet with a high tank is a classic historic design and will set the tone for your traditional bathroom
  • Traditional taps- Choose traditional, separate taps to finish off the traditional style
