Simple but opulent bathroom decor is one of the top choices you can make to add a timeless, quiet luxury element to your home. This stealth wealth touch instantly brightens everyday routine. Kyle Richards’s understated, gray marble bathroom is a wonderful example of just how impactful this upgrade can be.
The Real Housewife of Beverly Hills took to Instagram to share a get-ready with me video, but the real star of the show was the reveal of her gray and white marble bathroom. Richards’ space is filled with natural light from glass doors to her balcony. The walls and ceilings are painted white. This looks extra bright against her hexagonally tiled gray marble floor, bathtub, and shower. It’s accented with a fluffy white bathmat, a gray ottoman, and a modern silver metallic light fixture.
A is one of the most timeless and classic color schemes. Jennifer Ebert, digital editor at Homes & Gardens states: ‘Gray is such a cool, calming shade, making it perfect for a bathroom. When combined with white, the shade brings a grounding ambiance. Although different neutrals fade in and out of being the most popular shade, gray will always be a classic choice that will never go out of style.’

The benefits of the color are further bolstered by its fabrication: all of the gray in Kyle Richards’s bathroom is on marble tiles. This high-quality material is lauded as versatile and classic by experts everywhere. ‘Marble decor in bathrooms epitomizes luxury and sophistication, creating a spa-like ambiance that promotes relaxation and indulgence,’ says Nina Lichtenstein, Westchester-based interior designer of Richards’ .

Furthermore, Richards has styled the for ultimate comfort. For instance, the ottoman and plush bath rug add a cozy, comforting contrast to the coolness of the tiles. Lichtenstein tells Homes & Gardens: ‘Introducing soft textiles like plush towels, a cozy bath mat, or a fabric shower curtain in complementary colors can enhance the comfort and coziness of the bathroom.’
The presence of greenery visible clearly through the balcony windows adds a touch of the natural world to Richards’ scheme. Lichtenstein says, ‘Incorporating indoor plants or fresh flowers brings life, vibrancy, and pops of color to the bathroom. Greenery against the backdrop of marble creates a striking contrast and establishes a nice indoor-outdoor connection.’
