The viewer is abruptly drawn to the beautiful view of a sunrise over a calm ocean. The photograph is equally minimalistic and that is why it decorates so well.

In addition, this panorama has great symmetry, which is another component that compliments the bathroom style so well. It is center-aligned with the bathtub and its water fixture. Thus the main bathroom piece and the wall decor complement each other.

BLACK & WHITE FLOWING WATER PHOTO PRINT IN A WHITE-WALL BATHROOM

Nature-inspired photography wall decor in a bright bathroom where natural light abounds. This is another example of a fairly monochrome interior. However, in this case the subtle colors are added by plants and furniture. The artwork on the wall is monochrome (black and white) and that way integrates itself seamlessly with the interior. The white water matches the white walls. The dark rock matches the carpet. The overall effect is a blended symmetry with the power of nature photography. The slow-motion foaming water creates calm and relaxation. The rock and the streams over it bring a sense of a private spa, ready to remove any stress.

PAIRED PHOTOGRAPHY WALL DECOR IN A CONTEMPORARY BATHROOM

A chic and contemporary bathroom is elevated with paired photography wall decor of two matching images. The two art pieces are not exact images. One is a panorama and the other a vertical rendition of the same landscape. The colors, tones, and mood reflect the beauty of the ocean in an abstract genre. Both prints are bright colors which makes them a gentle addition to the bright and well-lit bathroom. Their clean and contemporary look flows effortlessly with this modern interior.

MODERN BATHROOM WITH PANORAMIC ABSTRACT OCEAN PHOTO WALL DECOR

An abstract photo panorama elegantly decorates this high-style bathroom. Its architecture is complex, while very simple at the same time. This is the exact same dynamic observed in the print on the wall. Only three elements: clouds, ocean water, and beach sand. The landscape is intricately simple with very clean lines and deep blue tones, which bring the coolness of the ocean. The earth-toned sand matches the bathroom floor well and creates the connection between architecture and art.

LUXURY PHOTOGRAPHY WALL DECOR FOR A LOW-LIGHT BATHROOM

The sunset behind an ocean pier, along with the slow motion water, inspire a tranquil atmosphere. Another example of symmetry between the art and the bathtub fixture. This is a gorgeous interior setting enhanced by the vibrant colors of high quality photography decor.

BLENDING NATURE PHOTOGRAPHY WALL DECOR IN ELEGANT BATHROOM

An earthly paradise created through bringing nature indoors. An intimate nature photo scene from the forest brings life and freshness to a cozy and modern bathroom. The wall decor photograph has only 3 colors: green, white, and black. Although in different proportions, all of these colors are represented in the interior design of the room. White is the dominant color in this bathroom, while it is the smallest representation in the picture on the wall. Green is the dominant color in the artwork, yet rather small in the room. Finally, black takes a good amount of space in the photo print, and is sparingly used in the room design. However, regardless of the mismatched proportions, these three colors complement each other and design an effortlessly cool bathroom.

OCEAN SHORE PHOTO ART FOR A SPACIOUS BATHROOM

A private eden bathroom designed to soothe through skillful architecture and photography wall decor. Both the interior space and the fine art represent a minimalist style. A bright bathtub acts as the jewel of the room. Similarly, a lonely rock on the sand of a beach shore resembles a sea pearl in a natural spa environment. A touch of white in the receding waves matches the predominantly white colors of the room. The beach sand blends well with the floor design. Finally, a splash of turquoise ocean water brings a new tone of freshness in this modern space.

ITALIAN SEA CHARM WALL PRINT DECOR IN EARTH-TONE BATHROOM

Bring the Italian charm of a small and colorful village, perched on the edge of the rocky shore to your bathroom. This type of decor can have multiple positive effects. It brings vibrancy to this earth-tone interior. It brings the coolness of the sea and the summer breeze, associated with vacation. Finally, it inspires curiosity for travel and experience of another culture. It may even evoke memories of a fun family trip that is etched in your mind forever. Soak, relax, and travel in your mind through the view of this gorgeous panoramic view.

WATERFALL PHOTOGRAPHY ARTWORK DECORATING CHIC BATHROOM

It jumps out and creates an immediate art focal point. The lush sides, covered with soul-nourishing bright-green moss, bring a feeling of life and match the plant in the room. This is an inviting setting that mixes the natural and architectural designs. Who would not want to dip into a bathtub full of fresh and pristine water, coming from a mountain stream on a remote island?

MOUNTAIN WILDFLOWERS PHOTOGRAPHY DECORATION FOR BATHROOM

While photography wall decor with water in it works really well in a bathroom interior, this is an example of something different. In this case we are bringing the abundance of summer inside this space. How refreshing to look at a field of lupine wildflowers and a distant mountain while bathing. In a sea of violette lupine a small patch stands out with its bright white colors. They match the tub and plant pot on the floor. The lush greens match the plant itself. Finally, this large-scale print stands out with its mostly cool colors against a wall with earth tones.

COLORFUL ASPEN PANORAMA WALL DECOR FOR BEDROOM BATH TUB

A mixed interior combining a bedroom and a bathroom decorated with a fall colors panoramic photograph. This is another example of how photography wall decor, other than images of water, can elevate the space. Not a lot of color matching, between art and room interior, is incorporated here. Nevertheless, there is evenness of color strength between the two, where both color schemes are with pastel tones. This allows the wall decor to blend and stand out in the room at the same time.

REJUVENATION HOME SPA BATHROOM DECORATED WITH TWIN PHOTO ART

Private spa galore is the theme in this spacious bathroom adorned with twin photography wall decor. The two art pieces match in format and theme. Nothing like bringing the turquoise ocean water of a peaceful beach right inside your private space of rejuvenation. The matching photo prints’ colors bring uniformity throughout this interior, just like its architectural design. The room flows seamlessly in the same way that a high class resort spa would. A classic example of how large format nature photography art can completely transform the look and feel of a room.

THE RIGHT PHOTOGRAPHY PRINT MEDIUM FOR BATHROOM

When using photography wall decor in your bathroom it is important to understand that you need a print medium which is waterproof. The reason for this is that moisture will ruin most photographic art. Therefore, it is crucial that you use waterproof photo art. My recommendation for this purpose is metal prints.

Metal prints are most suitable for your bathroom wall decor for two reasons. First, they are a very high quality fine art with vibrant colors, which look great on a wall. Second, and more important, they are waterproof. Metal prints do not have paper in them but the inks are infused onto the aluminum plate under high heat and pressure.

How do I know that metal prints are waterproof? For one, they are advertised that way by manufacturers. The second reason is that I have personally experimented with that. I submerged a metal print, entirely, in very hot water and held it there for a little while. When I pulled it out, I just wiped it dry with a towel and the print was undamaged.
