Interiors Need Energy? Look to Mondrian's Paintings for Inspiration (13 photos)

Highlight functional areas. The clients for this small bathroom project asked Alloy Workshop to create a space based on the work of one of their favorite abstract painters: Mondrian!

Not only does the bathroom resemble the artist’s work, but it channels the modernist tenet “form follows function.” This means the shape of something should be based on its use. Here, there are colored tile fields at many functional locations.

The red above the sink delineates a shallow inset shelf. Blue tile covers a shower seat and surrounds a grab bar on the wall. The yellow stripe depicts the shower controls and drain.
