To begin, draw inspiration from the serene atmosphere of a spa. We instinctively seek relaxation in natural environments, as it is deeply ingrained in our nature. Thus, integrating natural materials is essential for crafting a spa-like bathroom. These materials not only imbue the space with elegance but also establish a profound connection to nature, fostering harmony within the room.

Consider incorporating the following materials:

You can also include green plants to complement the color of the towels, thus enhancing the overall ambiance of the room.
