The wallpaper dazzles, tiles gleam, and the fixtures are fancy, but there’s one touch that pulls everything together: bathroom accessories! These key players may be small, but they carry a lot of weight in terms of making a space both functional and stylish. And in a modern, luxurious bathroom, it’s not just any run-of-the-mill soap dish or toothbrush holder. The bathroom accessories of today have been carefully designed to make your bathroom routine all the better.
Your property inspiration
This stunning five-bedroom house in the prestigious Royal Alfred Marina is an interior design triumph. Even the smallest of details have been curated with care. The home's seven bathrooms, in particular, stand as a testament to the beauty of thoughtful accessory choices.
At the centre of it all is a luxurious wooden bath mat — it provides a warm, slip-resistant surface underfoot, marrying safety and style in perfect harmony. A stainless steel bathtub caddy tray becomes a throne for your favourite bathtime reads, fragrant candles, or even a glass of wine; this tray takes your bath experience from pleasant to indulgent. Accenting the space is a beautiful brown rattan weave basket. More than its stylish aesthetic, this laundry bin offers a practical storage solution, while also being eco-friendly.
Glam up your bathroom with these accessories
While many turn to a major remodel, sometimes the simplest changes can bring out a new experience in your space. With the right accessories, your bathroom can transform into a modern space you’ll love using every day.
Touchless dispensers: With options releasing soap, shampoo, and even toothpaste, these high-tech accessories prevent cross-contamination, cut back on messes around your basin, and reduce overuse. Their user-friendly design also makes them more accessible, ensuring staying clean is all the easier.
Wooden bathroom mats: With attractive choices like bamboo or teak, these offer a mildew-resistant, mould-proof, water-resistant, and sustainable alternative to a textile mat.
Towel warmers: Whether installed within your towel rails or as a standalone device, towel warmers prevent mould and mildew and give you that oh-so-satisfying feel of comfort when you wrap yourself in a heated towel after a shower.
Bath pillows: Come quick rinse or long soak, this handy accessory will help you maintain a healthy posture, ease muscles, and relieve stress.
Ladder towel rack: This is a wonderful way to keep your towels and clothing organised, save space, and give your bathroom a chic look.
Hanging shower caddy: Although nothing new, innovative designs are making in-shower storage much more effective. From sleek designs to adjustable grid systems, these caddies are keeping showers both neat and attractive.
Phone holder case box: These waterproof, anti-fog storage units allow you to safely listen to music and watch videos while having a wash. The touch screen allows you to easily adjust the video and volume to your liking.
Bathroom footstool: Besides making toilet time more accessible for young children, these footstools ensure you stay in the ideal seated position. In this way, they help promote better colon health, relieve constipation, and prevent haemorrhoids.
UV toilet sanitiser lamp: These devices can be fitted to the inside of your lid and sterilise your toilet, ensuring every routine is done comfortably and healthily.
On-trend shower curtains: This old bathroom staple is moving beyond being practical by making a statement. From translucent curtains that give the impression of spaciousness to bold colours that catch the eye, these modern twists offer a fun alternative to glass or plastic screens.
