The Beauty Of White...Bathrooms
We’re drawn to all-white bathrooms because we associate white with purity and things that are healthy and hygienic. It looks so clean, and that's what we do in bathrooms...we get clean. When using whites in the bathroom, you want to look at honed, brushed, tumbled and shiny surfaces. You can combine these textures easily in an all-white bathroom and the variation in finishes adds interest. But if a stark, all white bathroom feels too sterile, white provides the ideal backdrop for sculptural elements and fixtures, as well as black and other colors.
I have a theory, that you can learn almost anything you want to know about a person or culture by what they eat (food) how they adorn their bodies (clothing) and where and how they live (shelter).
I'm a writer, artist, designer, foodie, and urban anthropologist of sorts. To me, life is a fabulous adventure, and this blog is my attempt to observe, curate, and write about the things that I find interesting. Welcome to Planet Carol!
