Chrome fixtures are common in bathrooms, but they can be made very modern when paired with gray walls and a clean-lined tub. Click below for modern bathrooms in silver and gray, ranging from super-sleek to warmed up...
Modern Silver and Gray Bathrooms
In the top photo from Wow Bathrooms, this Duscho-designed space latches on to the trend towards furnished bathrooms. The silver chair picks up on the shiny chrome finishes throughout the room.
The glass dividers in this space by Boffi let lots of light into the bathroom, while the wall-mounted fixtures seem to float.
This heather-gray Chilewich Roller Shade has just a hint of violet, and the signature Chilewich texture adds richness to the window treatments.
The hanging light fixture in this Boffi bathroom softens the hard edges of the ultra-modern fixtures.
This photo from the Jamie Hayon Collection for Spanish company Arquitect shows how Hayon's artistic interpretation of traditional fixtures can bring a bathroom to the next level.
We like the use of the little stainless steel stool in this Blu Blue Shower from Wow Bathrooms.
In this photo from Living Etc, a freestanding tub is chrome-plated. It's one way to update an antique tub.
This Selvaggio Tile from Ann Sacks is paired with carved wooden pieces, a nice compliment to the modern pattern.

the top photo reminds me of a prison and the last place i want to shower is a prison. its too cold- i dont think i could relax in such a cold place.
but i do like the idea of having metallic elements in the bathroom- last two pictures i like.

and i love the top photo - it doesn't feel prison-y to me at all, but it feels TOO BIG. isn't that weird? that much space in a bathroom never feels right to me.

per the top photo -- all those angles makes me feel i could cut myself on something! give me that curvy, chrome-plated tub any day.

I love the bathroom in the top photo, but agree that the room is a bit large for me. There's something very calming about all the shades of grays and browns.

The first picture is so depressing. And in that particular setting, the tub lreminds me of a coffin.

I don't agree that the top photo feels prison-y or depressing.. perhaps a little too over the top with the colour scheme which makes it fairly dark but that could be easily brightened up.
Seeing all the nice tubs in these photos makes me sad though because water restrictions are so tight here it turns a bathtub into a nice looking dust collector!

They have a sterile quality about them. Works for some people but I can't imagine myself taking a relaxing bubble bath in these rooms.

love this post.. i didn't get any inspiration from these pictures, but i knew that silvery gray could totally go in a bathroom, and i did it. :)

i warmed it up and made it quite romantic with the glass drop chandelier and flowy sheer silk curtains and glass gem beads. those decor pieces can be added to any room, in my opinion, and add some instant romance/warmth. :)
