1. Keep it Cute

This adorable bathroom, designed by @semihandmade, embraces color and playful patterns to bring fun to everyday routines—while still maintaining a clean, orderly appearance. The Track Stack Navy Blue mosaic tile adds depth to the tub surround, a striking contrast to the pale pink walls. On the floor, the White Hex tile offers a neutral base in a classic shape. The confetti wallpaper accent wall–with its charming pattern–ties the space together. The tile is sophisticated enough that a new coat of paint or a more mature wallpaper could easily update the room for a teen.

2. Add Interest With a Custom Layout

This shower—designed by Craven Haven for her two young sons—is deceptively simple. The top half features Verano White tile in a vertical straight stack, while the bottom half showcases Verano Anthracite tile arranged in a horizontal stack. The handmade-look glossy tile has a subtly undulating surface that playfully catches and reflects the light, adding depth to the fun color-block design. The result is a space perfectly suited for children yet grown-up enough to remain appropriate when the showerhead is raised to accommodate teenage boys.

3. Add Cheer with Sunny Yellow

Think beyond blue and pink—this cheerful, gender-neutral bathroom is a delight for all ages! The Color Market Lima Da Persia subway tile creates an invigorating tub surround, while the use of a more muted patterned wallpaper keeps the space from feeling oversaturated. A cute shower curtain adds a personal touch–and offers an easy update as your child’s personality evolves. Shop yellow tile for more sunny hues.

4. Pick a Pretty Pattern

A delicate floral pattern can create a fanciful space to inspire imagination—as is evident in this beautiful bathroom featuring Laura Ashley Sunflower Charcoal with Cloud Blue floor tile. Its geometric flower pattern is both whimsical and refined—just as suitable for a teen as it is for a younger child. Note how the Laura Ashley Leaf Cloud Blue tile in the shower niche further elevates the design with fun shapes. Shop our wide selection of patterned tile to find a design that matches your child’s style.

5. Choose Black-and-White Tile

As stately as it is simple, a black-and-white tile lends itself to a wide range of designs, from elementary to elegant. This charming bathroom features the Cloth Black and White floor tile. Its gingham-inspired pattern grounds the space, while the uneven, hand-drawn-style lines set a tone of self-expression that continues in the bright yellow sink vanity and vibrant butterfly wallpaper.

6. Use Trim to Elevate the Space

If you want your kids’ bathroom to grow with them—or transition into a guest bathroom once they leave the nest—investing in details now will help the space evolve with ease. This playful bathroom, designed by Jessica Brigham, features classic white subway tile, elevated with a black pencil trim and bullnose. These finishing pieces create a smooth transition between the tile and the exuberant jungle wallpaper.

7. Stick to a Simple Color Palette

This bright and enchanting bathroom, designed by Zig and Co., sparks joy in both the young and young at heart. With an expressive blue and green floral wallpaper and the whimsical Laura Ashley Mr Jones Midnight floor tile, the space pops with pattern! The key to maintaining order in such an energetic design is a limited color palette; despite the many elements, only three colors—green, blue and white—are in play.

8. Use Marble Subway Tile for Simple Sophistication

This chic, feminine bathroom was designed by Julie Howard for Timber Trails with her teenage daughter in mind. The Hampton Carrara marble subway tile, installed in a brick-lay pattern, elevates the space, while the Black Marquina marble Barnes and Somerset trim pieces add a timeless elegance. The soft blush-painted walls are sophisticated yet still girlish–perfect for a young lady.

The burnt orange tile makes this space feel cozy and inviting. For more relaxed and rustic shades, shop our wide selection of orange tile.

Infuse your space with the softer tones that make up the edges of the sunset. The pretty pastels–think pinks, purples and softer yellows–will give your space a chic, understated feminine look. This bathroom features The Tile Shop-exclusive Brick x Brick by Alison Victoria Petal tile. We love how the soft color pairs with the hard brick look for a charming space that’s a little edgy.

6. Alabaster Glow

The soft pinkish-white tones of the authentically handmade Zellige Alabaster Gloss tile lends this space a gorgeously peaceful glow. Each Zellige tile is crafted, painted and glazed by hand giving them unique character. The subtle color shifts, from a greyish white to pink to a lush beige, create a wondrous neutral palette, like the one found in nature.

7. Lovely Lavender

A lavender haze settles where the sun sets in the sky, and you can capture this greyish, purplish tint in your space with tile and paint. This gorgeous room designed by I SPY DIY features the Silver Hex tile. The silver-grey hue perfectly picks up the lavender tones of this pretty modern farmhouse bathroom.

8. Sky Blue

Don’t forget about the blue skies that proceed the sunset. The brilliant blue hue of the Laura Ashley Wicker Sea Spray tile fills this bright and airy mudroom with good bright-day vibes. We love how the simple white, wood and wicker fixtures in the room bring out the blue in the tile.
