Eco-luxury at home: a guide to designing your sustainable bathroom

Eco-luxury is the new frontier in bathroom design, combining elegance with environmental responsibility. Today, it’s possible to create a sustainable, sophisticated bathroom that not only reduces your carbon footprint but also enhances your home’s comfort and aesthetic appeal. Here’s a guide to achieving eco-luxury in your bathroom.

1. Water-saving fixtures

Choose low-flow faucets, dual-flush toilets, and water-saving showerheads to minimise water use without sacrificing comfort. These fixtures offer both modern aesthetics and significant reductions in water consumption.

2. Sustainable materials

Materials like bamboo, recycled glass and reclaimed wood add natural elegance while reducing environmental impact. Bamboo, for instance, is highly renewable and offers a sleek, warm finish perfect for luxury spaces. Recycled glass tiles bring colour and character and are highly durable.

3. Eco-friendly paints and finishes

Eco-friendly, low-VOC (volatile organic compounds) paints and finishes improve indoor air quality and reduce harmful emissions. They come in a range of colours and textures to match any style, and with minimal environmental impact, they contribute to a healthier space. These finishes are ideal for bathrooms as they resist moisture and mould.

4. Energy-efficient lighting

Lighting can transform a bathroom, and energy-efficient LED options can do so sustainably. LEDs use up to 80% less energy than traditional bulbs and last significantly longer. For an added luxury touch, incorporate smart lighting systems, allowing you to adjust brightness and color, creating the perfect ambiance while saving energy.

5. Smart showers

A smart shower system takes eco-luxury to the next level, giving you control over water temperature, flow, and duration. Many systems even come with timers and remote controls, letting you set preferences for a more personalized experience.

JUST ADD WATER.⁣ Dehydrated/dry toiletries & cleaning products are SO much better environmentally than liquid. According to @ellenmacarthurfoundation , more than 90% of a typical bottle of cleaning product is water. ⁣ ⁣ Dry products have far less volume than their liquid counterparts meaning less space in transport vehicles further reducing fuel used & weigh much less, so have much lower carbon emissions in shipping.⁣ Plus, less volume also means less packaging needed. Approximately 20 percent of global disposable plastic packaging could be replaced by reusable packaging if we only shipped active ingredients. ⁣ ⁣ This lovely soap is by @theprintedpeanut 🌸🧼 Her selection of pretty soaps contain no SLS, parabens or palm oil. They are vegan, not tested on animals, handmade in the UK & come in a 100% recycled card box, printed in the UK using water based, eco-friendly inks. They make wonderful gifts!⁣ ⁣ If anyone isn't sure about shampoo bars, these @beautykubes are an amazing alternative. They are vegan, palm oil & plastic free, UK made in Cornwall in a facility powered by green energy. Plus, they work SO well.⁣ Happy days & hooray for supporting small businesses. 🙌💖⁣ ⁣ Source: Ellen MacArthur Foundation⁣ Not an ad, I just love these products. 🙂⁣ ⁣ #Itsnotashampoobar #solidshampoo #supportlocalbusiness #sustainablebathroom #zerowasteskincare (at Hampstead Village) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAYPXDfHWuq/?igshid=nsztncfuykns
