MAKE VINTAGE COOL
Let’s be clear, traditional does not mean old. While traditional style has roots in particular movements, places and time periods, like Federalist or Dutch Colonial, antiques themselves are not an essential part of the equation. Nothing that’s been hanging out with mothballs for the last 100 years is required for a space to be traditional.
Vintage elements can thus be used in any bathroom design style to provide a charming and elegant feel. To help achieve this look, one can start with the right sink and faucet.
The Artifacts® bathroom faucet combines quality craftsmanship with artisan design to lend character and authenticity to your space. Pair Artifacts with the Artist Editions™ Lilies Lore® sink for a timeless look. Derived from the rich and highly stylized plant motifs of Art Nouveau, the Lilies Lore castbronze sink takes on a modern shape through an intricate floral pattern.
Each piece from Kohler’s Artist Editions range is inspired by a different culture, country and artistic tradition, thus allowing you to introduce a masterpiece of craft to your bath space.
Once you’ve discovered the right faucet and sink, you can select other pieces to tie the room together. With the right bathroom furniture, and a great bath tub you could curate a look which is elegant and timeless.
