Bathroom windows bring a lot of natural light into your space, but finding new ways to keep the space bright while maintaining privacy can be challenging. Whether you’re looking to adorn your existing windows or are in the process of building some windows in your bathroom, there are seriously endless options that will suit any style you like.
Some bathroom window options include:
Floor-to-ceiling windows
If you want to showcase an incredible view and make your bathroom feel as open as possible, then floor-to-ceiling windows are a great way to go!
Narrow windows
Slit or narrow windows in a bathroom are a good idea as they still bring in so much light but also give you lots of privacy.
If you want to take your bathroom windows to the next level, read on to discover more bathroom window ideas.
1. Lacy curtains
First up is utilising beautiful lace curtains. This fabric brings a soft, feminine vibe to your space while helping diffuse harsh light filtering into your bathroom.
2. Slit window
Slit windows are a great idea in bathrooms that are close to neighbours as you can only see out of them when you are standing in the shower. Anyone seeing you from outside would only ever see your head!
3. Slanted skylight
Looking for a clever way to let natural light in without any covers? Opt for slanted skylights. Even better if you can position it over the best spot in the space — the bathtub!
4. Let nature in
Give your bathroom that tropical hotel feel by adding a pocket garden shaded with timber. It’s a great way to add natural ventilation and light.
5. High windows
Keep it simple with high windows that give you enough sunlight without worrying about your privacy as you move throughout your space.
6. Sheer curtains
Have floor-to-ceiling windows? Opt for sheer curtains that are thick enough to keep your space private. You can add a liner for that extra layer of protection, too.
7. Floor-to-ceiling window doors
If you love letting in as much light as possible in your home, then floor-to-ceiling window doors are a fabulous idea. Situating your bathroom with bigger windows by the balcony will help maintain privacy without adding curtains.
8. Blinds by the bath
Enjoy the view while you bathe by keeping blinds within reach. An easy switch can make sure you get privacy or natural light.
9. Frosted windows
Choosing fully frosted windows or doors takes that extra step of switching out curtains or cleaning blinds regularly. It’s also a great way to keep colour coming into your space, especially if you have plants just outside.
10. Roll-up blinds
Looking for something more secure? Opt for a thick fabric like canvas for a roll-up blind.
11. Roller blinds
Opt for roller blinds as an alternative to the standard Venetian blinds by your bath. They’re a great way to control your privacy level, especially in the tub.
12. Awning
Want to try something unique? Install colourful awning right outside your window for that extra layer of shade and protection.
13. Double-layered covers
Can’t decide on how much coverage you want for your windows? Mix and match! You can add Venetian blinds with sheer curtains to get more control over how much light you let in.
14. A seat with a view
If your view is masked by trees or out of sight from your neighbours, open up your space with a window next to your bathroom seat.
15. Stunning skylight
Want a luxurious approach to natural light with windows? Try positioning your skylight just above your tub or shower.
16. Wooden blinds
If you’re looking for a darker shade to contrast light filtering in? Bring warmth into your space with wooden blinds.
17. White shutters
If you’re ever wondering what window covering you should use to suit a light bathroom, white shutters are always a great idea!
18. Plants by the window
When in doubt, cover with foliage. That extra layer of greenery is a great way to add colour, fresh air, and privacy to your bathroom.
19. Outdoor garden and shower
Take your bathroom even closer to nature. Add an outdoor shower for instant natural light and a skylight.
20. Elegant divider
Lastly, you can use a divider to open and close the window when you need privacy. There are many options to choose from these days. Plus, you can use it to hang any towels or clothes you need to dry.
