Choosing bathroom accessories isn’t a difficult task at all. However, there are some crucial decisions to make to ensure you select the best fittings for your needs and fittings to complement your bathroom design.
When selecting bathroom accessories, simply consider the functionality, the style and the finish. If you pay attention to these three things, you’re sure to make the right decision.
Bathroom Accessory Functionality
Bathroom accessories add essential functionality to your space. Each accessory serves a specific purpose based on your fixtures and daily needs.
Start by assessing your bathroom. Toilets require a toilet roll holder and toilet brush holder. Showers and baths need towel rails, towel rings, or towel ladders for hanging towels and soap holders. Showers without built-in storage benefit from wall-mounted shelves. Basin areas work well with toothbrush holders, while empty wall space suits robe hooks.
Consider who uses the bathroom. Family bathrooms need multiple towel storage options. Ensuites might require fewer pieces but prioritise quality. Guest bathrooms benefit from accessible towel rings and organized surfaces.
Choose accessories that solve real problems in your space. Match your selections to actual usage patterns rather than buying items you won’t use.
Bathroom Accessory Style
Bathroom accessories come in two main design styles: round and square. Both offer minimalist, modern aesthetics that suit contemporary bathrooms. Traditional styles with decorative embellishments are also available but less common in modern renovations.
Match your accessory style to your bathroom tapware. Round tapware pairs with round accessories. Square tapware coordinates with square accessories. This consistency creates a cohesive look throughout your bathroom.

Bathroom Accessory Finish
Lastly, consider the finish. Bathroom accessories generally come in the same finishes, including brushed gold, brushed nickel, gunmetal, chrome and matte black, and should match your tapware. If you have chrome tapware, opt for bathroom accessories with a chrome finish. If you have black tapware, you guested it; choose black bathroom accessories.
