Traditional bathrooms are as popular today as they have ever been. If you have just begun your bathroom renovation or you’re looking to inject some classic charm into your existing space, a traditional look might be just the perfect thing for you!


With many different styles around, choosing a period-like interior can seem a little daunting, especially when it comes choosing all your different elements, from tiles and brassware to colour palettes! To give you a little inspiration on your traditional bathroom renovation journey, we’ve put together our favourite classic bathroom looks.

If you’re keen to embrace an understated yet classical look, a light and soothing colour palette could be the answer. There’s nothing more visually appealing than a clean and harmonious aesthetic, particularly in the bathroom. 

You can achieve this look through incorporating natural stone effect tiles in neutral shades. Our sumptuous Cliveden tiles work perfectly for this type of look, the smooth surfaces flow beautifully across bathing spaces, opening up the corners of the room with a lustrous finish. You can even take to the walls with the subtle three-dimensional texture of Cliveden’s Concept tile for enhanced visual appeal. Finish the look off with a classic full-pedestal basin, chrome brassware, natural wood finishes and a soft backdrop for a scheme that boasts superior traditional style.

Whether used on the floor or across the walls, an eye-catching statement can be made with this refreshing hue. Our lovely Dyroy tile in Aqua encompasses natural shade variations that offer contrast, particularly when used against period-style accessories and a stunning roll top bath.
