top 8 Bathroom Interior Layouts: Modern, Classic & Retro

Axor is well-known for producing a wide variety of bathroom fixtures ranging from vintage to sleek in appearance, but perhaps of comparable value are the layouts they project as potential bathroom spaces. Ordered (subjectively) from the most ultramodern and futuristic to the most conventional and old-fashioned settings, here are some of the most intriguing bathroom interior layouts featuring sets of fixtures from tubs and toilets to faucets and sinks.


They are somehow realistic and contemporary in their design yet also have character and a sense of age. One of the key things to remember when shopping for fixtures (elegant or cheap) is that design never exists in a vacuum - there will always be a bit of disorganization around it or at least some other objects in the room that are not part of the initially designed set. A handle might look good on a pedestal and devoid of context but being able to visualize what it will look like when functionally attached as a piece of working hardware is critical too.

Integrated Bathroom Interior and Fixture Design

Bathrooms are usually the last place you expect to find the ultimate in ultra-modern design. Cobbled together from various design sources, many bathrooms show a profusion of pipes and inconsistent furnishings and fixtures.


Not so with the Ebb Bathroom by UsTogether, where most of the workings are tucked away, hidden within sleekly designed exteriors that themselves are hung on hidden supports.


Elements of the Ebb Bathroom fit together aesthetically and play off the lines and curves in each other, from bathroom sinks to bathtubs. Simplicity and elegance at its very best.

Outside In: Bathroom Exterior + Interior Design Idea

What if you could bring the peaceful comforts of nature into the privacy of your very own bathroom? This inside out (or outside in) bathroom paradise design concept by Renato Gschwend is all about using natural materials to extensively connect an entire bathroom space in a surprising set of ways.


As the detail pictures above and below show, the entire floor is a pebbled surface that can absorb water and provide a comfortable, naturalistic walking experience - no more cleaning up after yourself or worrying about typical spatial divisions in your bathroom interior.


The sink faucet functions like a miniature shower, extending the sensation of bathing to even normal foot or hand washing. The corner whole-body equivalent is, naturally, a rain shower where you can take a seat or stand up. No door is necessary as the water drains back into the floor.


While there is much to be set for the ingenuity and style of this design, it remains (for the moment at least) entirely conceptual. There are of course technical problems to be overcome with respect to drainage and, alas, things rarely look as good in real life as they do in renderings and other images. nonethless, the concept is a good design seed and revisits the everlasting dialog between outside and inside, exterior spaces and interior places around and within a home.
