There’s a quiet revolution happening in the most personal room of the home: the primary bathroom. I’ve always believed that good design goes beyond how something looks—it’s about how it makes you feel. What used to be a practical spot to get ready is now a place to slow down, reset, and indulge—just a little. These days, luxury doesn’t mean over the top. It means creating experiences that feel effortless, restorative, and deeply personal. It’s quiet luxury that is less about excess and more about ease.
That’s one reason Cambria is perfect in bathrooms where maintenance-free materials radiate refinement. And Cambria’s nonporous quartz is not only gorgeous—with an extensive design palette that includes designs that can be backlit. Cambria is also incredibly low maintenance—because no one wants to spend their weekends scrubbing grout. I’m especially excited about Cambria’s new 1cm quartz slab thickness—a lighter-weight option perfect for shower walls. It provides visual continuity and a spa-like look with zero fuss. Clean lines, no grout, just pure calm.
Beyond that, I’m also really drawn to bath spaces that engage the senses. Think sculptural fixtures, atmospheric lighting, and the soft echo of water from a fire-adjacent soaking tub. These moments feel luxurious, not because they’re flashy, but because they’re intentional.
Wellness rituals once reserved for high-end spas—like saunas and cold plunges—are also being thoughtfully integrated into residential spaces. These amenities allow for daily moments of renewal in the comfort of home. For someone like me, who’s fully committed to wellness in my own life, I’ve embraced cold plunges lately—and let me tell you, they’re not easy. They can be downright painful at first! But the benefits are incredible. It’s contrast therapy that shocks your system followed by a grounding calm. It’s a total reset. And being able to build those wellness rituals into our own spaces through intentional design makes it easier to prioritize them daily, and that’s when real transformation happens.
At the end of the day, the new primary bathroom isn’t just where we start or end the day—it’s where we take a breath. And in a world that never stops moving, those moments of stillness are true luxury.
