We wanted this guest bath to feel bright and a little playful. Glossy teal green tile in a straight grid sets the retro mood, and a white penny floor keeps it crisp. A floating oak vanity brings in warm wood, while chrome fixtures and opal globe sconces add a classic shine. A frosted window keeps things private and full of daylight. Below, we share each piece we chose and the thinking behind it.

Illustrative rendering, not a photograph. A small mid-century bathroom with glossy teal green square tile walls, a white penny tile floor, a floating oak vanity with a chrome two-handle faucet, a round silver mirror between two opal globe sconces, a white alcove tub with a grey shower curtain and chrome shower, a frosted window, a white toilet with a bamboo tissue cover, chrome towel bars with white and ivory towels, a wood ladder, a woven hamper, a teak plant stool and a black trash can. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20
