Well, I am finally starting my bathroom renovation. I need a proper retreat, with a deep soaking tub and a spa like atmosphere.
As with all my makeovers, my first step is to find some inspiration. I have already decided the tub will be the main feature, so this week I am sharing all of the bathtub ideas and designs I have found so far.
1. The Complete Bath
I love a piece that does it all, and this round tub is a total workhorse. It’s your spot for soaking, bathing, and rinsing, all rolled into one.
It’s roomy enough to be the focal point of the bathroom and comes with all the bells and whistles like whirlpool jets and a rain shower. Plus, the controls are super easy to access.
It’s the perfect blend of function and style.
2. Nature’s Luxury
Talk about a serene escape! This bathroom design is so brilliantly uncomplicated. The whole idea is to let you connect with nature while enjoying a luxurious bath.
The sunken cement tub is perfectly placed in a corner with glass walls that open right up to the view. I love that there’s absolutely nothing in the room to distract from the gorgeous scenery outside.
3. The Corner Curve
Okay, how cool is this? This bathtub has such a unique and modern vibe with its unexpected curve.
It’s a corner tub made with that smooth acrylic surface we all love. It also has a handheld shower and faucet that are right where you need them, making the whole bathing experience super relaxing and convenient.
4. Concrete Tub
This bathroom is so striking and unconventional, and I am here for it. It completely breaks the mold with its design choices. There are no colorful tiles or fancy accessories.
Instead, you get these incredibly stark concrete walls, a really interesting accent wall made of champagne glasses, and a huge concrete tub. It’s a bold statement.
5. Modern Bathtub Caddy
Sometimes it’s the little things that make the biggest difference. You can totally elevate your bath time by adding the right accessory, and this wooden tub caddy is a game-changer.
It’s multi-purpose, holding everything from a glass of wine and a book to candles or towels. It just makes everything more convenient and adds to the whole spa-like experience.
6. Stony and Smooth
I love a good contrast in design, and this bathroom nails it. The sleek, white oval tub feels so smooth against the stony textures of the room.
The accent wall is made of rough stacked rock with a pebbled floor, which creates such a cool dynamic.
The clear glass wall and recessed shelves keep the whole space feeling clean and uncluttered, which you know I love.
7. Modern Elements
What a perfect mix of efficient minimalism and rustic charm! This bathroom is a masterclass in styling. It’s built from simple elements like concrete walls, black fittings, and wood panels.
The beauty here really comes from the ingenious carpentry. The wooden tub’s design is so simple, and that’s exactly what makes it so beautiful.
8. Copper Accents
A little bit of metallic shine can do wonders for a cozy bathroom. This modern space uses a copper wall to create a stunning highlight against the dark grey walls.
The white oval-shaped tub really pops. My favorite part might be the black ceiling with starry mood lights. It’s so dramatic!
The uncovered glass window is also a smart move to let in that beautiful natural light.
9. Delightful Fishtail Tiles
If you want to give your drop-in bathtub a serious style upgrade, look no further. This fishtail tile design is absolutely delightful!
The tiles come in these gorgeous varying shades of teal and cerulean that look amazing against the all-white interior. It gives the whole bathroom a cool and refreshing vibe that I just love.
10. The Corner Bath
Corner tubs are such a smart use of space. They are typically three-sided to fit perfectly against two walls. This one is a spacious white tub with dramatic black clawfeet.
The whole bathroom has a restrained bohemian feel, with the pink subway tile walls, gold fittings, and that great Greek-inspired shower curtain.
11. Just Marbled
You really can’t go wrong with marble. It’s elegant, luxurious, and completely timeless. This beautiful bathroom nails that classic look with marble accents, a stunning crystal chandelier, and crisp white mouldings.
To give it a fresh twist, they added a minimalist tub. This white freestanding bathtub brings just the right amount of sleek, modern style to the space.
12. Walk-in Sanctuary
This wet room area of the bathroom is a total design achievement. The cool concrete walls have these arresting diamond accents that add so much interest.
The sleek white tub is perfectly centered against the back wall, which really makes it a focal point. I love how the space is separated by those barely-there glass walls.
13. Mirror Finished
Now this is how you do glam. This tub is sleek, flashy, and all kinds of classy with its mirror finish.
It has a pedestal base and silver fittings that are just perfect for an elegant bathroom filled with marble, glass, and crystals.
To really complete that sleek and airy look, they used glass panel walls, white curtains, and some really stunning lighting.
14. Patterns and Plains
This bathroom has so much personality! The black and white patterned floor gives it a touch of hippie style, and that bright red rug just doubles down on the free-spirited vibe.
The modern freestanding tub adds a chic contrast with its matte black exterior and cool white interior. Adding a few more black accents was the perfect way to tie the whole look together.
15. Concrete Spa
I am all about a modern minimalist vibe, and this one has so much character. The design is totally committed to a grey color story, from the concrete block walls and shower floor to the amazing patterned tiles.
Even the bathtub is solid concrete! It’s the silver fittings and those pops of lush greenery that really bring it to life, keeping the space from feeling too serious.
16. A Garden Bath
What a brilliant idea to set up a bath inside an interior garden! This is absolutely incredible. The built-in tub has two glass sides, which adds such an interesting visual element.
The tall silver shower, pebbled floor, and glass walls all come together to create a truly amazing garden bath experience.
17. White Subway
The classic drop-in tub gets a seriously chic, modern upgrade here. I love this black and white bathroom.
It uses timeless white subway tiles with black grout for the walls and tub surround, paired with black penny tiles for the flooring.
The black fittings and that copper globe light are what give the room its fresh, modern edge.
18. Vintage Grace
This clawfoot tub is just beautiful. It has the graceful lines of a slipper tub, the posh look of copper, and all the comfort of a modern bath.
A white cast iron bathtub like this one can add a hint of vintage charm or just highlight the graceful style of any modern bathroom. It’s so versatile.
19. Bay Window Indulgence
If you have a bay window, it is the absolute perfect nook for a luxurious soak. This modern freestanding tub has a smooth finish and a really elegant boat shape.
I love how the white walls, wooden stools, and a wooden towel ladder come together to complete the rustic minimalist look. It feels so calming.
20. The Wooden Tub
This is such a cool, modernized version of the vintage wooden soaking tub. It’s both stylish and efficient.
The tall tub brings a touch of rustic charm to the all-white bathroom, creating a nostalgic feeling of comfort and style that I really appreciate.
21. Grey Cocoon
Grey is such a great color for a bathroom; it feels cool, modern, and so relaxing. This space features a sleek oval bathtub that really helps to brighten up the room and adds to the cool, comfortable atmosphere.
Finishing the look with shiny chrome fittings was absolutely the right call.
22. The Black Spa
This spa-bathroom is absolutely stunning, and it all centers around that incredible black stone tub. The oval freestanding tub is set on a bed of dark grey pebbles right next to a glass wall.
The woven jute blinds and tropical plants are the perfect finishing touches to complete the spa-like ambiance.
23. Rocky Interiors
I love the contrast between the rough edges of the rocky accent wall and the sleek, modern white tub. It’s such a great design choice.
The freestanding acrylic tub sits on a bed of white rock, which is a nice touch. Adding a few green plants helps to soften the rocky interior and adds a welcome pop of color.
24. Charcoaled Copper
This is such a cool, modern take on the classic boat-style bathtub. It’s got that smooth, shiny copper on the inside for comfort and a charcoal black finish on the outside for a modern look.
The pedestal tub also features copper fittings that just glow against the mostly black interior. It’s so dramatic.
25. The Round Tub
This bathroom is a fun mix of rustic, modern, and bohemian styles, and it just works. The star of the show is the roomy round tub.
It’s a freestanding acrylic soaker that fits perfectly in the corner and even comes with its own faucet and shower. It’s the definition of stylish efficiency and comfort.
26. Farmhouse Retreat
What a beautiful, private, and relaxing room! The all-white interior and charming farmhouse design make this bathroom feel really special.
The main attraction here is the modern white bathtub. It’s unfussy, efficient, and looks incredibly comfortable. It’s a perfect retreat.
27. Amethyst Surprise
I love a bold and surprising color choice, and this one is a total stunner. This goth-themed bathroom is chic and unique, built around a palette of black, grey, and bright amethyst.
The arresting color of the bathtub and matching sinks completely brightens up the otherwise somber interior. It’s a showstopper!
28. The Sunken Tub
This whirlpool tub is absolutely amazing. It’s designed with jets that give you a massage-like experience, and it has a rain shower for easy rinsing.
The sunken design is what really gives the bathroom a minimalist, spa-like atmosphere. I could spend all day here.
29. Bath with a View
A long, comforting soak while connecting with nature is pretty much my definition of peak serenity. This bathroom was designed for the ultimate indulgence.
It has glass walls to let in those scenic views, modern fittings for comfort, and a large oval tub for pure style. It’s perfection.
30. Creative Lighting
The lighting in this space is everything. It absolutely defines the room and gives it so much character and drama. I love how the floor lighting highlights the curve-bottomed tub and the pebble accents.
The full ceiling light panels create this wonderful illusion of openness, which works so well with the glass walls and partitions.
31. Caribbean Blues
This bathroom has a cozy, rustic, and dark vibe that creates a really creative contrast with the bright blue walls and floor. The stacked wood bathtub is so unique.
To finish off the look, they added chrome fittings, mirrored walls, and a cool wooden towel ladder. It all comes together perfectly.
32. Japanese Soaking Tub
This tall, round tub is so stylish and modern, not to mention space-efficient. The interior is smooth and even includes a built-in seat, which makes for a super comfortable and enjoyable soak.
The whole look is completed with brushed chrome fittings and some spa accessories.
33. Scandinavian Minimalist
This bathroom is a perfect example of sleek and graceful Scandinavian minimalism. The neutral colors, clean walls, and minimal decor are just beautiful.
The star of the room is the white acrylic tub. Its egg-shaped, freestanding design is perfectly complemented by the modern copper fittings. It’s so chic.
34. Stock Tank Bath
Using a round stock tank for a bathtub brings such a great touch of nostalgia to an updated bathroom. I love this idea! It’s sturdy, efficient, and has so much old-fashioned charm.
To really complete the look, they lined the shower with metal sheets and added a vintage white lavatory and some bare light bulbs.
35. Chic Minimalist
This black and white bathroom is the definition of chic, stylish, and classic. It feels both modern and timeless at the same time.
I love the hexagon tiles on the wall, the dramatic black ceiling, and the simple white walls and grey floor. The freestanding acrylic tub, black on the outside and white inside, is the perfect centerpiece.
36. Soak and Shower
This minimalist freestanding tub is just so sleek and modern. It fits perfectly into the combined shower and soak space.
The marble fishtail tiles on the walls and floor give the bathroom a bright and whimsical feel, while the antique bronze fittings add a cool, edgy vibe. It’s a great combination.
37. Dressed Up Minimalist
A bright Scandinavian minimalist bathroom doesn’t have to be bland, and this room is proof! The clean walls get a dose of interest from the wood-themed tiles, and a woolly rug adds a touch of posh.
The large white tub sits on a bed of smooth pebbles which is such an extraordinary detail. I love it!
38. Tub Storage
Now this is smart design. A modern, efficient, and multi-functional bathtub is a lifesaver, especially for smaller bathrooms. Using the side of the tub for storage is both sensible and practical.
It helps keep clutter contained and gives you easy access to all your bath essentials.
39. Rustic Inspirations
If you want to transform a boring bathroom, adding a lot of rustic touches is a surefire way to do it. This space gets a huge dose of charming, bucolic vibes from the wood panels on the side of the tub and on the floor.

At the same time, the sleek, white acrylic freestanding tub gives the room a modern feel. It’s a beautiful mix.
41. Hammered Copper
This vintage hammered copper tub brings such a nostalgic and rustic vibe to this charming farmhouse-inspired bathroom.
The dark copper tone is the star of the show, creating a beautiful contrast against the bright white walls, ceiling, and floor. It’s just gorgeous.
42. Infinity Tub
How cool is this sleek infinity tub? It’s perfect for an indulgent and invigorating bath. The design gets rid of the edges, making the tub seem to disappear and look more like a pool of water on the floor.
The whole effect is so edgy and sophisticated.
43. Curved Comfort
This bathroom is so serene and beautiful. It was clearly designed to be a calming and tranquil place to bathe.
The wood-themed walls and floors, the black candle chandelier, and that graceful tub all create a super relaxing hub. The freestanding white tub is what brings that modern air to the space.
44. Rustic Elegance
This room feels so warm and welcoming, while still being modern and rustic. The mood lighting is what really defines the space and gives it character.
The wood accents bring in warmth and charm. I especially love the eye-catching bathtub pedestal, which draws your attention right to the modern white tub.
45. Skylight and Bath
Skylights are one of my favorite ways to dress up a ceiling. They make a room feel more spacious and let in so much natural light.
This modern and rustic bathroom is a total standout, and it’s all thanks to the combination of the white rectangular tub, the dark stone walls, and that beautiful filigreed skylight.
46. Farmhouse Spa
This alcove bathtub is so bright and charming! I love the extended platform around the edges, which is just perfect for setting down books, a glass of wine, or your bath supplies.
The whole setup is so graceful, with the oval-shaped acrylic tub, shelves on two sides, and that big, beautiful farmhouse window.
47. Black Minimalist

It looks incredible against the dark grey walls and floors. The wood-themed base adds just the right touch of rustic warmth to the minimalist theme.
48. Sophisticated Boat Bath
You can’t get more classic than the graceful lines and shape of a boat bath. This elegant tub is ideal for a traditionally stylish home, like this white Hamptons-style bathroom.
The chic and posh silver fittings are the perfect complement to the pedestal tub. So sophisticated.
49. Freestanding Efficiency
With a little smart planning, even a smaller bathroom can fit a huge freestanding tub like this one. A full glass wall on one end makes the room feel so much bigger than it actually is.
The shower is cleverly incorporated with the tub, and the wrap-around curtain can be pulled back when it’s not needed. It’s so efficient.
50. Clawed Comfort
This bathroom is just so elegant, timeless, and beautiful. The whole space shines with the graceful glow from its silver fittings and that amazing crystal chandelier.
The classic cast iron, silver clawfoot tub gives the room a chic and elegant vibe that will never go out of style.
51. Sculpted Granite
This is a very rustic bathroom, but it has a wonderful touch of elegance. The sculpted granite tub really sets the austere tone.
I love the details like the plain concrete flooring, the driftwood-framed mirror, and the stick towel ladder. That exquisite chandelier is the perfect contrast, adding a touch of graceful style to the rustic theme.
52. Soak by the Window
You can create your own private sanctuary with a tub-by-the-window setup. I love this idea.
This drop-in tub has a cool shade of fern green on its sides, and the glass window lets you enjoy picturesque views while you bathe. It’s a perfect escape.

Marble is always a winning choice for elegance, luxury, and style. It’s a material that will outlast any trend.
This beautiful white bathroom features a round marble freestanding tub, a gorgeous chandelier, and gold accents that totally seal the deal on the posh design.
54. Stainless Steel Tub
