Undeniably, a jungle style bathroom is an eccentric, unorthodox and exotic choice that reveals the daring and inquisitive mindset of those who love to travel and recreate in their homes the atmospheres of distant countries. The aim to be kept in mind is to obtain a naturalistic effect, like an immersion in untamed nature.
A bathroom in the jungle
The jungle style bathroom has definite characteristics when it comes to materials, colours, and cladding, and, needless to say, sanitary wares are no exception.
The predominant colour is green in all its nuances, combined with gaudy colours in the most intense shades, such as red, yellow, black, and purple, that evoke the colours of exotic flowers and animals. Also essential is brown, for its association with earth and wood. Similarly, blue should not be overlooked on account of its association with the colour of water and the sky. Muted and pastel shades, on the other hand, are to be banned.
For the floor, parquet is to be preferred over other materials. If porcelain stoneware is chosen instead, it is better to opt for a wood effect or, alternatively, choose shades of brown or blue that will evoke natural elements. For the walls, mosaic tiles in vibrant but also decorative tones may be used. Among the elements you do not want to do without in the wall cladding of a jungle style bathroom are leaves. Choosing bathroom tiles or wallpaper with leaves, flowers and exotic animals is the absolute best you can do.
Even jungle style furniture must fall back on wood. Among the solutions proposed by Flaminia, the new Cubika furniture line in Greek Walnut or Eucalyptus finishes is just perfect for this style. For those who do not want to overdo it with wood, the alternatives include lacquered finishes in green or brown shades that bring to mind vegetation and the earth.
All clear, then, for coloured sanitary ware in the nuances of green, such as: those in the App collection in their Petroleum and Mint or Mud and Clay coloured versions; the sanitary ware and washbasins in the Fluo line with opaque Clay finish, whose organic shapes seem smoothed by water. Another option is the Spire+ washbasins with the decoration in relief inspired by the coils of a shell.
And while it is true that details make all the difference, the presence of exotic tropical-style objects and plants are the icing on the cake. Abounding with plants is never wrong in urban jungle style furnishings.
