Gold shower, and how to use gold in the bathroom

June 2021, author: Sebastian Wiśniewski, customer advisor

Gold is associated with wealth and prestige, and this material was valuable already in ancient times. In recent years, gold is every time more popular in interior design. So, how to blend it into the bathroom decor to make it look stylish and elegant?

Gold will look marvelous in an arrangement provided it is in an appropriate amount. Since gold is quite specific, as long as it appears only in accessories and fittings, it will look great, but once there is too much of it, the arrangement might border on kitsch. So, how to incorporate gold into the decor to make it look stunning?

There is no doubt that gold is stylish, but not all of us would go for it. It is something that daring, open to new trends people would choose. When deciding on this color, we should remember it shouldn’t dominate the bathroom. If we consider gold tiles, we might want to opt for putting them on one wall only, instead of all of them, but even then we might realize there’s still too much of it. An interesting effect can be achieved, on the other hand, by placing on the walls only one strap or a pattern made of gold tiles. They will also look intriguing by the sink or the shower. Gold fittings are also a recommended solution.

Most shower faucets and sliding door tracks come in the traditional silver color, and some of them come in black. However, a gold shower faucet is very original and this alone might encourage you to consider this choice. It is important to remember that the decor should be consistent, so if we have a gold faucet in the bathroom, it is recommended that the shower set or sliding door tracks be in the same color.

Which design style will the gold fittings work best in?

A gold shower or faucet are primarily associated with the Baroque style, which is characterized by wealth and splendor, but the truth is that gold will work well in almost any known design style. Its beautiful shine will blend in perfectly with modern glam look, and its warm tone will add coziness to industrial interior spaces, where concrete dominates. It will also finely complement bathrooms finished in a contemporary and minimalist style.

Gold shower set - functional fittings and original decoration

If the investor decides to go for gold fittings, they can be sure it will constitute an important decorative element of the interior space. Since gold is increasingly popular, manufacturers make their products also in this color.

If you have a shower in your bathroom, it is worth opting for a gold shower set. A hand shower in this color is impressive on its own, but to complete the effect, you can choose a shower enclosure model with a gold frame finish. You will find GOLD LINE models in SanSwiss offer. An enclosure like that will attract attention straight from the threshold! Gold will look good not only on the day of purchase, but thanks to a careful production process, it will not fade even with prolonged use.

Gold fittings combined with lighting

The kind of lighting used constitutes quite an important element in any interior space. It allows us to emphasize the character of the interior space, and gold fittings would make it glisten impressively. The best option is to focus on light fixtures that give warm light. When it falls on gold elements, the bathroom will look warm, romantic, and natural at the same time.

What will a gold shower set look best with?

Gold goes well with white, black, brown, gray, and other commonly used tile shades. If gold is combined with white or pastel colors, such as pastel pink or sky-blue, the bathroom will optically enlarge, which means this solution would work perfectly in smaller spaces. In bigger bathrooms, an interesting result can be achieved by using gold as a complement to an interior space where darker and deeper colors, like burgundy or bottle green, dominate. Although a combination of gold and silver is unusual and it may seem they would clash, when juxtaposed skillfully, they would complement each other.

And what about the finishing materials? With so many options available these days, not everyone has ceramic tiles alone in their bathroom. The good news is that gold fitting will look great with everything; it can complement an interior that features concrete, marble, wood, or glass, for example.
