jonathan scott's spanish-style bathroom essentials

while nearly every part of jonathan scott’s bathroom in “brother showdown” gave us modern spanish spa vibes, two elements of this renovation stood out for their striking appeal and impressed scott, jasmine rose, and us. on his blog, jonathan scott writes, “modern spanish flair has been a theme throughout this house, and i brought it into the master bathroom with even more stunning tile and a signature piece: a clawfoot tub.” scott used stunning gray and white dolomite marble mosaic tile in the large shower and throughout the bathroom floor. the star of the show is a massive 72-inch clawfoot tub with a black and copper exterior. these two design choices set the stage for a look that is completely spanish-inspired, paying homage to traditional elements while being completely modern with their neutral, natural color palette and minimalist appeal.

if your bathroom isn’t big enough for a clawfoot tub, we suggest you take a page from jonathan scott’s mosaic marble tile look and use a similar tile style on the floor and shower. to tap into this modern element of spanish style, follow this property brother’s lead and opt for a modern neutral color palette of white and gray. no matter the size of your bathroom, follow scott’s lead with crisp white walls, white stone countertops, and light gray cabinets. to create that spanish european feel, take a page from scott’s elegant, simple, mixed-metal hardware, including brass, black, and gold.

other ways to get sophisticated spanish style

chances are, you don’t have a $2 million home renovation budget like jonathan scott did. but the good news is that there are cheap and creative ways to update your bathroom on a budget that still allow you to channel jonathan scott’s modern spanish bathroom style. we recommend going with jonathan scott’s neutral color scheme of gray and white, and start by looking for mosaic tile on sale or wholesale. if you have the time, you can save even more money by diy-ing the shower tile. second, the benefit of using mixed metal hardware is that you don’t have to make everything match, and you can save even more money by finding discounted, used, or mismatched hardware. just make sure that the pieces you choose are simple and coordinated in the same room to keep the look modern. the same goes for bathroom mirrors, decor, and artwork.

jonathan scott used gold-framed mirrors, copper accents, mismatched stoneware, greenery, and photos on the wall to decorate his bathroom. we recommend trying flea market finds and thrift store bargains to round out the effect. finding the perfect combination of traditional, old-world elements and modern, minimalist pieces will help you strike a balance between modern and spanish style for a timeless, elevated vibe. like scott, keep the color scheme and overall style neutral and minimal to avoid overcrowding the space and allow the mosaic tiles to shine.
