Now more than ever, the bathroom is being seen as an extension of living area; a place for refuge, as well as refuse. And as the lines between living and bathing continue to blur, so does the furniture. Embrace the bourgeoning bathroom furnishing trend with any one of these six statement pieces.
An Ottoman
An ottoman in the bathroom … unconventional? We think not! According to recent trends, it’s not so outlandish to rock a living room staple in your powder room. Prim, powder, and paint your nails comfortably with a cozy perch like this one.

A Lounge Chair
Though the bathroom isn’t a room typically known for its lounge-ability, maybe it should be! Upholstered seating in the bathroom may not suit small bathrooms, but for something larger, such as a master en suite, a comfy lounge chair, like the French-style linen chair displayed below, will lend a luxury feel to your space.

A Tub Platform
Have you heard? Freestanding tubs are the envy of all tubs, far and wide. For a freestanding tub that makes a statement, consider propping yours up with a wooden plinth rather than classic claw feet.

A Chandelier
It seems it’s been a big year for chandeliers, as they’re hardly limited to dining room use anymore. In addition to lighting up your outdoor space, a chandelier can do wonders in your bathroom, transforming it to a place of sophistication, elegance, and glamor.

Fluffy Textiles
So, you’re on a budget. Fear not, your bathroom transformation doesn’t have to be a wallet-emptying affair. Replacing your tired textiles, for instance, is a quick and inexpensive way to update your bathroom. For a spa-like feel, opt for fluffy textiles, like a plush, decorative rug.
