While the modern aesthetic focuses on sleek, reflective, and smooth surfaces, the opposite is said for retro bathroom designs and there are many ways to bring about a worn look to antique looking bathrooms. From old wood to rough textiles, and distressed looking wallpaper the appropriate decor will add depth and interest. Mixing colours and patterns will create a mismatched yet authentic style, a clawfoot bathtub placed on a platform gives a little extra detail to the aesthetic desired, and a reclaimed dresser where the wood has been painted but still exposes the original stain underneath with a basin on top will really draw attention. Stylish but with lots of character and charm.
