6 His and Hers Bathroom Ideas for Sustained Marital Bliss
We line up our favourite fixes to imagine His and Hers wash spaces that afford plenty of room for 'me' time
It is no secret that bathrooms provide their share of grounds for marital strife. Jostling for space and freedom in this smallest part of the house is a problem all couples can relate to. A His and Her bathroom, on the other hand, can offer just the right solution for partners to prep, primp and rejuvenate. It allows for thoughtful provisions that can accommodate individual habits and preferences to help partners cohabit better. To get you started, here are some ways, ranging from style suggestions to clever and fashionable storage solutions, to set up a space that is shared with panache.
2. Storage shared is a problem halved
When it comes to storage, men usually complain that their significant other monopolises it. Obviously, splitting storage down the middle is the most sensible approach. Amicably and honestly segregate what you have into His and Her zones and don’t cross the line.
Tip: If you are challenged for spaces to stash stuff, consider these simple yet ingenious tricks to elevate your organisation quotient. Baskets and boxes are your friends – slip these inside your cabinets for hiding everything from hair-styling tools to makeup and in-betweens. Over and above the archetypical cabinetry and shelving that your sink area may offer, a chic and clutter-free way to advance storage is with a repurposed bookshelf. Yes, this smart solution will not only make your bathroom appear more spacious but also present a place to store towels and tuck away toiletries.

3. A His and Her double vanity is a boon
Two sinks look fantastic for sure but their functionality is clearly the reason to celebrate in the context of a shared space. A double vanity provides a separate space for each partner to get on with what they need to do without imposing their will and hogging the space. The best part? Most prefabricated two-sink vanities are relatively easy to install.

4. Separate zones
If you have space like this for your bathroom then we are so envious. Though in smaller, mid-sized bathrooms too, the bathing and the WC zones can be separated so both partners can use the space without coming in each other’s way. See here how frosted glass is used to add privacy to the two areas.

5. Add personal touches, and a bit of luxury
Be it a grand or a modest space, it is the little details that can make all the difference in creating a bathroom that you’ll both appreciate. Put your own unique ‘you’ stamp on the accoutrements around the bath to create a sense of pride and personalisation. Punctuate corners with accessories. Don’t hold back in bringing in a bit of luxury too – this is your very own private shared space, celebrate it with knick knacks, and lush materials and finishes that pamper the senses.

6. Bring in some fun
Go a step further and turn your bath into a retreat. Introduce a perk or two that you can both savour together. Perhaps a TV over the sink for the morning rituals? Or consider a bigger tub or shower area, if you have the space, for those shared soaks.

While she may like frills, he may not be too keen on them. Similarly, a contemporary look may work for him but won’t float her boat. This is why it is imperative to opt for a theme that works for both. Whether you prefer luxury with flair, an au naturel look, modern minimalism or a country vibe, we suggest you zero down on a common point of agreement and get started on designing the space.
