Please show me your modern bathroom wall/floor baseboard design

I need some serious advice - the bathroom will be small - 5x9, floating walnut vanity - only shower/tub area tiled.
The floors will be pretty dark grey graphite color tile.
What do you do for baseboards? Do you do a modern one or use tile ( not sure how it will look with a dark tile piece )? Most of the modern bathrooms don't use anything?
Please help - thank you!
Attaching the space for visual reference. The walls where the toilet hangs and sink won't be tiled.

Comments (18)Weedyacres...here you go. I wish that I put a cupboard below, but originally the toilet was going in that nook and it wouldn't have worked. The other bookcase is on the other side in our bedroom. This was empty space because we pushed the tub up to give the toilet more room. I hate dead space, so I put the shelves in. It ended up that there still wasn't enough room for the toilet...bad measuring on the part of the plans. This room was done in two parts, so it was hard to get a good feel for the space until all the plumbing had been roughed in and walls of the old space were taken down. I guess this is more than you need to know. I haven't figured out what will go in the shelves yet....See MorePlease show me your DRAMATIC bathrooms
Comments (6)Oh my...there are SO many spectacular bathrooms in this forum! You've come to the right place for inspiration :) But, when you said "bold and sparkly", pharaoh's bathroom came to mind. Hope he doesn't mind me linking to his bathroom :) I've got some sparkle in mine but I get the impression you're looking for a more modern look.

Comments (11)Your bathroom is lovely. And I agree it looks very clean and crisp. The look I am going for is traditional or old world elegant. Again, I am only replacing the vanity, counter and sinks, and lighting as well as wall color and window treatments. I am also considering replacing the shower doors with new, borderless ones. The colors shown (gold and burgundy) are in the adjoining master bedroom. I would prefer NOT to match the bedroom paint but of course need to compliment. Any ideas are appreciated....See MoreShow me your double-bowl sink in your bathroom
Comments (35)jewel, I think it might be the lighting, because our Mannered Gold "in real life" appears a bit darker and richer than the Blonde, but still complementary to the Blonde. The photographer who took these shots was taking pics for a homebuilder's competition and was using all kinds of lenses and things, so color might appear a bit off, or "pea colored." That being said, I initially purchased a sample can of Mannered Gold to try in the front guest bedroom and did not like it all. However, love it in the bathrooms and foyer....See MoreMark G

8 years agoMy daughter's bathroom is the reverse color scheme of yours with the walls a dark grey color and the floors mostly white. For the baseboard she used bullnose tiles that matched the floor and tub surround tiles.
Maybe this picture will help if you can imagine it reversed. At least you can see how the contrast looks.
