Think Outside The Bowl With Themed Bathrooms
by: Pete Bird
When it comes to designing a bathroom, most people stick to the safe choices: neutral tiles, classic fixtures and understated décor. But what if your bathroom could be more than just functional? What if it could tell a story, showcase your personality, or even give you a smile every time you step in?
At Pete Bird Kitchens & Bathrooms, our goal is to ensure that every one of our customers gets the kitchen and bathroom they want. It’s all about your dream home and we’re here to make that happen.
Whether your dream is white simplicity or an explosion of colour, the problem today isn’t whether it can be done. The problem is how big do you want to dream?
Have you ever thought about pushing the boundaries and embracing creativity? If the answer is yes, then a themed bathroom is for you. If you’re even just slightly curious, then we encourage you to read on.
From subtle nods to bold statements, a themed bathroom can completely transform your space into something memorable, and we find that most people out there don’t know that such a thing is possible.
Bringing It To Life
If you’ve been to our showroom, then you might have seen our beautiful octopus shower display. In October we celebrated World Octopus Day, and it reminded us that even the ocean can inspire your home.
Imagine stepping into a bathroom with marine-inspired tiles, fun aquatic motifs, or even a statement wall featuring your favourite sea creature. It’s playful, unexpected, and utterly unique.

It doesn’t have to be nautical to be a themed bathroom. Here are some other ideas that might pique your interest:
- Botanical Retreat – bring the outdoors in with lush green tiles, natural wood accents and leafy patterns
- Retro Revival – think 70s style tiles, coloured sinks and funky fixtures for a throwback vibe
- Minimalist Zen – clean lines, soft tones and natural textures for ultimate relaxation
- Vintage Glam – marble, brass taps and vintage mirrors for a luxurious, old world feel
- Bold and Bright – play with colourful tiles, statement walls or quirky art pieces to make every visit an experience
Themed bathrooms don’t have to be over the top to make a big impact. Even small touches, such as patterned tiles, unusual fixtures or art prints can give a bathroom personality without overwhelming the space.
Something Different
Whether you’re inspired by the ocean, nature or your favourite era, we encourage you to dream big. After all, it’s your home and where you spent a lot of your time, so why settle for ordinary when you could create a bathroom that’s truly unforgettable.
