How to recreate Maude Apatow's small bathroom
Interior designers are loving Maude Apatow's colorful small bathroom and I can see why. To recreate the look, you'll want to start by picking out some floral wallpaper that adds a subtle feminine touch. "Maude Apatow's bathroom gives off a fresh and modern vibe with its use of flower-patterned wallpaper," says Ricky Allen, interior designer and director at Ever Wallpaper.
"This trend can be seen across many interior design spaces, where floral prints are making a comeback. Peel and stick wallpaper is a great way to add texture and personality to any room, and Maude has chosen the perfect print for her bathroom."
Next, you'll have to add a contrasting mirror and some ambient lighting. "Mirrors aren't just simple shapes anymore," says Ryan Fitzgerald, realtor and the owner of Raleigh Realty.
"There are lots of different and sometimes old-fashioned styles that look like artwork. Lighting, meanwhile, is all about layering ambient, task, and accent lighting."
