Asian Bathroom

Any room with Asian elements is intrinsically designed to be a haven. Asian-style bathrooms consist of clean lines and simplicity combined with natural elements. The idea is to bring the room into harmony with nature—and many homeowners love the design creativity that comes along with that.

In fact, part of what makes Asian design so appealing is its versatility. The look can be ultra-modern or classic in appeal. You can select subdued earth tones with Japanese sensibility, or brighter, more colorful Chinese patterns that favor red and gold. You can be playful and add silk textiles, mythical figurines, or hanging lanterns. The sky’s the limit.

Costs

The cost of incorporating Asian style into your bathroom depends on the size and scope of the remodel and the materials, fixtures and accessories used in its construction. Your renovation can be as costly as adding new flooring and countertops, or as simple as painting the room an appropriate color and adding accessories.

Pros

Asian decor embraces minimalism, making your bathroom easy to build and maintain.
This can be a very soothing style in any room—especially the bathroom.
Asian decor uses many natural elements, like natural stone, wood, plants, water (fountains), and more.

Cons

Some homeowners see Asian decor as too modern.
It may be too specific a design style if you’re planning on putting your home on the market anytime soon.

Maintenance

The maintenance required of Asian-style bathrooms is typically minimal, maybe a wipe-down of the soaking tub or replacing soft-glow light bulbs occasionally. Should you install a fountain, however, expect maintenance as required by the manufacturer.
