Designing a Luxury Bathroom Retreat in Your Custom Home

Your bathroom should be more than just functional; it should be a personal retreat. When building a custom home, Maryland homeowners are prioritizing luxury bathrooms that feel like a spa.

Here’s how to design a bathroom that balances beauty, function, and relaxation.

1. Start with the Layout

Think about how you’ll use the space every day. Key elements include:

Dual vanities for shared spaces

A private water closet for added privacy

Spacious walk-in showers with glass enclosures

Freestanding tubs as a focal point

2. Choose Timeless Materials

Natural stone & porcelain tile for durability and elegance

Quartz or marble vanities for easy maintenance

Warm woods or sleek matte cabinetry to fit your design style
