Grecian Themed bathroom


day bed bath and beyond
This Grecian Themed bathroom uses mosaic tiles with skill, they adorn the floor, with a dark border and a lighter mosaic tile around the circular bath. The sides of the bath have grecian motifs in mosaic tile and they are a very practical as well as decorative feature to the bathroom.
The walls are painted to resemble stone and the detail is high with swirling scrolls subtly decorating and framing the recess for the joinery unit. A lovely coved high ceiling adds to the opulence of this bathroom space and I feel that there is probably an equally beautiful bedroom beyond.
The formal drapery, with swags and tails, and curtains that are almost pulled with tassels into a bishops sleeve look, is purely decorative, but it brings your eye back down into the room, the dark color of the fabric framing the window and adding a softness to the bathroom space.
The central pendant light, is a focal point along with the bath, once again lowering our eye to focus on the circular bath this time. It is very difficult to make out the tap ware, but this is quite a good feature as in Grecian times, baths weren't filled with high pressure taps as they are today, so not making it have a large presence is a good design quality.
