Minimalism may have reigned supreme in interior design for the past few years, but the tides are turning. In its place, maximalism is making a splash, and this trend is particularly exciting when applied to bathrooms. Gone are the days of plain white walls and subtle accents – the maximalist bathroom embraces bold colours, eye-catching patterns, and rich textures. And there’s no better way to dive into this trend than with Showerwall’s Acrylic Wall Panelling.
Here’s how you can create a striking maximalist bathroom with our vibrant, high-gloss acrylic panels that bring colour and character to life.
Bold, Vivid Colours
Maximalism thrives on rich, daring colour choices, and Showerwall’s Acrylic Collection is perfect for adding that much-needed pop of vibrancy to your bathroom. Think striking hues that instantly catch the eye, like the deep tones of Midnight Blue or the bright, energetic Fushia Pink. These bold shades make a powerful statement and are ideal for a bathroom that refuses to fade into the background.
Pair these colours with matching accessories or contrasting tones for an eclectic, yet harmonious, look. In a maximalist bathroom, the key is to embrace colour and have fun with it.
Eye-Catching Patterns
While maximalist design is often associated with loud colours, patterns are equally important in bringing the trend to life. Acrylic wall panels allow you to incorporate large-scale designs without overwhelming the space with tiles or wallpaper. Showerwall’s White Gloss finish, for example, can act as a sleek backdrop for bold patterned flooring or statement-making décor, while our Aqua Ice panels can create a shimmering, iridescent feature wall that adds depth and character to the room.
To truly embrace maximalism, experiment with mixing patterns. Whether it’s combining geometric tiles with floral wallpaper or pairing different textures, a maximalist bathroom thrives on visual interest.
High-Gloss for High Impact
Maximalism is all about drama, and nothing delivers impact like the high-gloss finish of Showerwall’s acrylic panels. Our range reflects light beautifully, making small bathrooms feel larger and more luxurious. Panels like Onyx Crystal or Onyx Sand bring a sense of opulence to your space while keeping the design modern and fresh.
Not only does the high-gloss finish offer a striking visual element, but it also amplifies the room’s lighting, enhancing the overall sense of grandeur and flair that’s essential in a maximalist bathroom.
Layered Textures
The richness of maximalism comes from the layering of textures, and your walls play a vital role in this. Showerwall’s acrylic panels offer a smooth, glossy finish that contrasts beautifully with more tactile materials like plush towels, velvet bath mats, or brass fittings. Mixing different textures – shiny surfaces, soft fabrics, and rougher materials like stone or wood – adds depth and luxury to your bathroom.
For a maximalist look, don’t shy away from mixing materials. The juxtaposition of smooth acrylic panels with textured décor creates a bathroom that’s both dynamic and inviting.
Statement Features
In maximalist design, every room needs a focal point. With Showerwall’s Acrylic Collection, you can turn your bathroom’s shower enclosure, bath area, or even a single wall into a statement piece. Opt for a striking colour like Crimson Red or Ocean Blue for one wall, and let it be the star of the room. Alternatively, create a feature wall with Mint Green for a fresh yet bold look.
Complement these statement walls with oversized mirrors, gold or brass accents, and unique lighting fixtures to create a space that’s both functional and visually stunning.
Personalised Design
Maximalism is about embracing individuality and creating a space that’s a true reflection of your personality. With Showerwall’s acrylic panels, you have the flexibility to mix and match colours, finishes, and textures to build a bathroom that’s completely unique to you and; even print your own designs on our Acrylic panels to make it totally bespoke. Whether you choose to combine Bold colours for a modern twist or keep it classic with Artic White paired with rich accessories, the options are endless.
Maximalist design encourages creativity, so feel free to personalise your space with artwork, vibrant towels, and unique decorative items that complement the boldness of your Showerwall panels.
Practical Elegance
Maximalism may look elaborate, but it doesn’t have to mean high maintenance. Showerwall acrylic panels offer the best of both worlds – striking design combined with easy upkeep. The smooth surface of our panels is not only resistant to stains and water but also incredibly easy to clean. Say goodbye to grout lines and complicated maintenance routines; a quick wipe-down is all that’s needed to keep your bathroom looking immaculate.
