Start with what colors are in the ensuite room? The rest of the home? What is your style? Are you looking for dark and moody or do you want to keep it lighter? Neutrals or color?

i love a dark and moody vibe and lean more modern with a classic element. we have 2 large windows and a skylight in the bathroom, so lots of natural light that wont make it feel small with a darker wallpaper.

No to wallpaper , please? Unnecessary and when you get the remainder done, it will be .."Together"

I would lose the robes and hooks near the tub, no matter the convenience : ) and add some art on those walls

IMO enough stuff going on already so no wallpaper the space is busy with tile , should have been slab doors on cabinets and that great view by the tub is all you need IMO. In this case less is definately more.

If you really want wallpaper and its a dream you can't let go.....choose one that is tonal without a lot of contrast or color variation

do you have a chandelier going in? Just curious as you have quite the dramatic ceiling there and it calls for one.

I love, love, love, love, love wallpaper, and I would not paper that bathroom. To my eye, there is enough visual interest in the finishes you have already.

The robe/towel hooks are practical. It's all very well for you to say "no matter the convenience," Jan, but you won't be the one stepping out of that tub, wet and cold in your birthday suit. If you eighty-six the hooks, what would you use to make sure that towels, tub mat, and robes were handy to the tub?

EDITED TO ADD: Okay, I'm a less-is-more person, but Design Interior South's renderings are growing on me. Are those real wallpaper patterns? What are they called and where are they from?

I know little about wallpaper but agree that more is more in this room. With all the movement in the floor, the busy ceiling and cabinetry, the walls seem naked in contrast. Wallpaper makes sense. I'd go with something masculine and moody, even a woven grasscloth if they make on that withstands humidity. @Design Interior South's renderings are spot on, though I'd go as far as to paint the ceiling darker too, perhaps the same grey as the lightest tone in the wallpaper.

Bathroom is lovely and once you accessorize/add mirrors it will be enough…sometimes less is more.

Beautiful bathroom. No need for wallpaper. It shines all on its own.

If you do install wallpaper make sure it is suitable for a steamy, high humidity environment.

I was in the no wallpaper camp until I saw Design Interior South’s renderings. WOW. Gorgeous looks, and takes the room to a whole other level. And any of those would be perfect for the aesthetic you like.

DIS, fantastic job showing how beautiful this room could be! Great choices in wallpaper and accessories.

Thank you all for the feedback! DIS these renderings are exactly what I was hoping for! Appreciate you all for helping me make this space better.

Also we have a skylight in the center of the ceiling so unfortunately no opportunity for a chandelier in the middle of the room.

Ahh got it. I couldn't tell it was a skylight , but how nice to have that natural light.

Either one would work for me.

The Fernwood Forest paper is stunning!

I love wallpaper, and think that more is more. Less is usually....more boring.

Uss i agree i love the fernwood forest paper! would anyone be able to mock this up for me?

This is such a beautiful space already the tub + window moment is stunning

With champagne bronze finishes, I’d lean into something soft and refined rather than too busy. A subtle textured wallpaper (like linen, grasscloth, or a very soft organic pattern) would add depth without competing with the architecture.

If you want a bit more personality, a tone-on-tone botanical or abstract pattern in warm neutrals could work beautifully with the bronze and keep everything cohesive.

To pull it all together, I’d keep accessories minimal and warm — think soft towels, a small stool or tray near the tub, and maybe a touch of greenery to echo the view outside.

I design bathrooms like this often happy to suggest a few specific wallpaper directions if you’d like

yes, vesta look, i welcome any suggestions/links you have.

Keep in mind that with this wallpaper youre looking at an almost mural like pattern, Above your vanity area you will only be seeing the top of the paper. Still beatiful just something to take into account when you are planning the layout. In otherwards hire a hanger that knows what they are doing. You will want to start your pattern on your largest blank wall and go from there.

Do not ever hang grasscloth or natural fiber papers in a bathroom. The moisture will ruin them. You can get a faux grasscloth in vinyl. They have some convincing ones out there. If you like the variation a natural fiber sisal, grasscloth etc wallpaper provides you will not get this with the faux vinyl ones. Something to keep in mind.

You have an opportunity to do something striking with the tray ceiling. If you like dark and moody, you could paint the walls in such a color. And you could do some creative styling with wallpaper and paint on the ceiling area.

Without wallpaper this room looks like an abandoned McMansion bathroom. With wallpaper it looks rich and complete. I can't wait to seewhat paper you select.

That’s a beautiful direction 🤍 this one has a very similar soft fern feel and would work really nicely in your space:

I like that it has movement but still feels calm and not too busy, which will pair really well with your champagne bronze finishes

Update: i ordered a sample that DIS recommeded and it ties everything in beautifully! thank you all-this forum has been immensely helpful!

Just wanted to say bravo to DIS! You are one of the reasons I follow Houzz. Thank you for your time and talent!

@Jennifer awe thank you for that! It made my whole day. I don't often get to come on and do this for people, even though i love to, because of my real life work schedule but i have been on bed rest for the past couple of weeks (knee injury) so I have been able to dive in. It is so nice for you to say this. ;-)
