40 Modern Minimalist Style Bathrooms

The minimalist aesthetic is very pleasing and calming on the eye and is therefore a great style by which to design a bathroom scheme. Simplistic lines lend themselves to a clean environment and being in an uncluttered space is perfect for starting the day with a clear head, or to unwind in before sleep. Since we’re enjoying the minimalist aesthetic here and not the lifestyle per se, we can also add a dash of luxury to proceedings. We’re not attempting to subtract every detail that does not have a clear and intentional use, or pushing back against a bit of bathroom bling. There can be minimalist luxury bathrooms as well…
