RETROSPECTIVE
As 2025 draws to a close, Maison à part once again highlights some of the most striking projects of the year. After kitchens, we turn to a room long confined to neutrality: the bathroom. Bold colors, graphic patterns, and daring decorative choices define this selection. It's time to revisit some of the most beautiful spaces featured on Maison à part in 2025. Bathrooms are gaining character! While long dominated by neutral palettes emphasizing hygiene, they are increasingly asserting themselves by daring to use color and pattern. Strong hues, pronounced contrasts, and graphic tiles are now part of the briefs expressed by clients for these rooms. This trend has been observed in interiors featured on Maison à part throughout 2025, as shown in this selection of bathrooms proving that creativity can find its way into the most intimate spaces. They are decorated to stand out in an environment too often sanitized. Discover, in the following pages and in pictures, seven bathrooms where color and pattern take center stage.
The Alliance of Green and Wood
In this bathroom of an apartment in Biarritz, interior architect Emilie Guitton used color to make one forget the room's limited size. A bottle-green faience tile from the brand Wow covers the walls and pairs with a dark wood vanity unit to give character to the space. The rest is treated in white to avoid visual overload.
Daring a Strong Hue
To surprise her client, an owner wanting an original aesthetic for her attic studio, the agency Maison Kyka chose a wine-lees hue to adorn the bathroom. The idea was for the space to stand out on a rental or resale site, as this was a first-time purchase. The color was thus dared in a total look, on the walls, backsplash, and cabinetry.
The Softness of Sage
In this miniature bathroom, whose area does not exceed one square meter, interior architect Aurélie Taravella chose a soft, gentle green for the wall tiling. Drawing the eye, it makes one forget the narrowness of the space and highlights its layout optimized down to the centimeter.
Marble Effect on the Walls
Here, it is patterns that were highlighted by interior architect Alexandra Teboul of the agency InDé – Créateurs d'identités. The walls are treated with marble-effect tiles which, with the porcelain stoneware floor, create a warm and modern ambiance. The whole is accentuated by the gunmetal finish of the Fontini faucetry and the elegance of the Cielo cabinetry.
Moroccan Influences
Drawing inspiration from Moroccan riads, interior architect Ingrid Marie of the agency MIID – Interior design, turned this Parisian bathroom into an invitation to travel. An ambiance expressed through its honeycomb tiling, laid in a black and white mosaic, and its arches, which house the shower and basin.
Oriental Notes
This private bathroom of a master suite was conceived by interior architect Anne Chemineau of the agency Decor Intérieur. Particular attention was paid to details with recessed golden faucetry, a custom mirror echoing the shape of the arch, and mosaic-effect tiling evoking rattan. All concealed behind the curves of a screen.
Powder Pink for a Boudoir
In addition to adding a bathtub to the bathroom of this Bordeaux apartment, interior architect Flore Huguet designed a custom boudoir ambiance for her client. Using pink paint for the walls, a concrete basin in the same color, and Kit Kat faience tiles laid horizontally, the professional managed to create an entirely soft decoration.
