From traditional and classic to modern and daring, these stunning bath spaces are filled with the very best decorating ideas.

Clean and airy, light and bright—white bathrooms are simply classic. Whether you’re decorating a small bathroom or an expansive spa-like retreat, a white bathroom is a timeless choice—and this calming, neutral space can and should be anything but boring.

For starters, picking the right white paint color creates a blank canvas for all your brilliant bathroom design ideas. Ranging from warm whites to cooler shades and everything in between, the just-right white paint sets the tone for the entire room. For example, modern white bathrooms benefit from a clean, crisp white on the walls, leaving room for an eye-catching light fixture or graphic bathroom tile ideas in the shower or on the floor. A traditional white bathroom with a softer tone wraps the room in a warm glow, perfect for layering in subtly patterned rugs or even a pretty wallpaper.

Besides typical bathroom materials, a pretty white background leaves room to incorporate a meaningful piece of furniture or display collections, as you’ll see in this gallery of luxury white bathrooms. From floor-to-ceiling marble to vintage-inspired tile work, these white bathroom ideas go beyond the best bathroom trends. Browse this gallery for our very best white bathroom ideas.
