How to furnish a vintage bathroom
Let’s start from a careful observation of the finishes of a vintage bathroom and in particular from the choice of floors and tiles capable of catapulting us directly into the 60s – 70s – 80s. You can choose from a wide range of decorations starting from the timeless checkered patterns, which alternate the classic quadrangular black and white, passing through the brick effect that is nothing short of suggestive for the walls, up to the very current cement tiles capable of furnish with a truly personal, chic and refined touch.
Another element that perfectly embodies the style of furniture that characterized almost the entire second half of the twentieth century are the bathroom consoles, ie the washbasin furniture generally made of wood or steel and marble, naturally in an exquisitely classic version with an industrial touch. .
Another element of fundamental importance is the sink and, in this case, you can really choose from a very wide range of original solutions ranging from reproductions of a markedly industrial nature to those of recycling, also passing through the choice of high-quality stone sinks .
Speaking of washbasins and sanitary fixtures, we could not forget to focus attention also on the taps, which must be carefully selected and evaluated in order not to undermine the much sought-after vintage effect. On the market you will find many practical models of impeccable aesthetic refinement.
One of the elements that becomes a distinctive feature of a vintage bathroom is of course the bathtub to be chosen in the free-standing version and with a design that recalls the lines in vogue in past years. If you do not want to give up the creation of a large and practical shower, to obtain a perfect retro effect you can for example cover its internal wall with patchwork tiles, cement tiles or optical patterns.
