apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time


Inspiration: Attic Bathrooms

When we were little, attics held special appeal as places to find treasure, or cozy retreats to read a book or play make-believe. These days, we get the same alone-time joy from reading a book in the tub. So why not combine the two?

 
 

1 Wood grain and a palate of light blue, white and gray play on the dreamy feel of this bathroom in Homes & Gardens
2 We love how the carved screen interacts with the steeply pitched roof of this suite from The Iron Gate Hotel and Suites in the Czech Republic
3 Skylights are a great way to use the typically pitched roof of an attic. From Ideal Home.
4 The knobby wood used to house the tub and sink make this bathroom from La Crepelliere in Normandy, France, look almost Ikea-hackable.
5 Shelving built into the eaves of this attic bathroom are used to hold the pink accents that make this bathroom in West Buccleuch House in Scotland cute and sweet.

Oh, can anyone recommend a good heated towel rack? I had one from Bed Bath & Beyond, a warmrails, that broke after 2 weeks and when I took it back the salesperson said that nearly ALL of them end up being returned. Does anyone have any experience with any other brands / place of purchase?

I love these bathrooms in the attic. And I would love to get my hands on that screen/divider in the 2nd pic. Lovely.

Pretty cool - best way to get a larger bathroom without taking up valuable square footage in lower levels.

Wow, I love the second one! The screen really sets it off nicely.
