Create a Bathroom Full of Character and Style
Not every bathroom needs to follow a single style. Some of the most inspiring spaces are created by combining different influences, blending old with new, and playing with colour, texture and form. Eclectic bathroom design is about creating a space that feels personal, full of character and unlike any other.
At Bathing Machine, we work with homeowners across Surrey who want something distinctive for their bathrooms. Whether you love the elegance of traditional fittings but also enjoy modern minimalism, or want to experiment with bold colours alongside calming neutrals, eclectic design opens up endless possibilities.
Mixing Old and New with Confidence
One of the joys of eclectic design is the ability to mix classic features with contemporary touches. Many Surrey homeowners love the comfort and elegance of traditional design but want the convenience and functionality of modern fittings. Eclectic design allows you to enjoy both.
For example, you might choose a Victorian-inspired basin with ornate detailing but combine it with modern brushed brass taps. Or perhaps a rustic wooden vanity can be paired with a frameless glass shower for a fresh, balanced look. It is about creating harmony between contrasts, where each element enhances the other rather than competes.

Colour and Pattern as a Creative Tool
Colour plays a powerful role in eclectic bathrooms. Instead of being limited to safe neutrals, this approach gives you the freedom to explore bolder choices. Vibrant tiles, colourful paint, or patterned wallpapers can add personality and depth.
At the same time, not every part of the bathroom needs to be bold. Pairing a statement wall with calmer tones helps to balance the space and prevent it from feeling overwhelming. For many of our clients, the key is in the details: patterned floor tiles combined with neutral walls, or a colourful basin set against a soft-toned backdrop.
Our team can guide you through how to use colour and pattern effectively, making sure your bathroom feels inviting rather than chaotic.
Texture and Material: Adding Depth and Warmth To Your Bathroom Design
A bathroom that relies too heavily on one material can feel flat. Eclectic design thrives on mixing textures to create depth. For example, polished marble paired with rustic wood, or matt black taps alongside glossy ceramics, brings both contrast and character.
Texture also affects how a space feels. Soft finishes, like natural stone or warm wood, can make a bathroom feel welcoming, while smooth glass and chrome keep the space feeling fresh and modern. Combining them thoughtfully adds comfort as well as style.
Functional Eclectic Bathroom Designs
Eclectic design does not mean compromising on function. In fact, when done well, it can make your bathroom more practical. By choosing fixtures that suit your lifestyle and combining them with clever storage and thoughtful layouts, you can create a room that feels unique while still meeting everyday needs.
We help homeowners consider how their bathroom is used day to day. Do you want a shower that feels open and spacious alongside a freestanding bath for relaxation? Do you need storage that tucks away essentials without interrupting the style of the room? With eclectic design, we can make these elements work together seamlessly.
