The prevalence of minimalism in home decor can feel confining, especially in bathrooms. These days, bathrooms have become bunkers spilling with wellness necessities, harboring our beauty secrets and self-care kits. We’ve traded the expressive, glamorous powder rooms of the past for a more functional approach. The consensus is it doesn’t matter if I spend nearly 200 hours a year surrounded by white towels, a white tub, and white marble floors as long as I have my faux plants and Gua Sha tool. If your bathroom decor matches the trendy, simplistic interior diet rather than your personality, or you’re craving a bolder design, we’ve got you covered. Keep reading for six home brands to shop when searching for bathroom decor that feels like you.

Curating Spaces That You Love, Not Everyone Else

We’re not sure when it happened, but suddenly, neutral aesthetics are synonymous with refined taste. From the home design inspiration on Pinterest and TikTok, it’s visible that millennials and Gen Z are turning towards taupes, blacks, and creams to define the modern, sophisticated home, while vivid hues take a back seat as the less polished choice. This general shift might not seem like something to harp on since trends are constantly circulating. Yet, it reveals an underlying problem: the art of designing with personality is gradually becoming lost. We often characterize bold spaces as kittenish, but picking an orange sofa over a gray one doesn’t make a home any less chic (unless it’s poorly styled).

Phrases like “dopamine decor” explain away the reason we seek to brighten our interior world as a trend rooted in a desire to feel good by evoking a sort of carefree childhood nostalgia or happiness. That’s not necessarily true. A bedroom with striking yellow walls could echo a deep appreciation for the sun. A kitchen shelf could hold mugs shaped like a favorite fruit, each scheme embodying elements of a person’s core self. These design decisions aren’t always made to evoke some faraway feeling–instead, they reflect our unique ideas and creativity, which is entirely the point. If all interiors look the same and every big-box store sells similar items, what happens to the individuality that makes spaces feel so timeless? This isn’t to say that neutrals are bad. For many, however, the instinct to choose muted shades might not be truly their own. We risk sacrificing our authenticity by chasing trends, blocking us from creating a home that genuinely represents our personal style.
