Travertine is one of the most celebrated materials in interior design, featured in iconic structures such as the Trevi Fountain and the Roman Colosseum. Its soft, neutral tones and natural texture create a serene, refined ambiance, making it ideal for both contemporary and classic interiors. Here’s how to style travertine in your home.
ADD METALLIC ACCENTS
Pair Travertine with warm metallic finishes for a luxurious touch. Brushed gold or aged bronze complements its soft, earthy tones beautifully with an added warmth. Consider using metallic bathroom taps, hardware, or accessories to create contrast and elevate the natural elegance of travertine.
NEUTRAL COLOUR PALETTE
Travertine thrives in tranquil, neutral settings. Its muted amber, cream, white, and beige tones work seamlessly with minimalist, Scandi, or Japandi aesthetics. Style a Travertine basin or freestanding bath against microcement walls or pair with soft textiles like boucle rugs and woven accents to enhance its texture and calming effect.
KEEP IT MINIMAL
Travertine is striking on its own, so often times less is more. Let the stone take centre stages with minimal styling, such as adding a basin tap, in a brushed gold, matte black or aged bronze finish. Small touches such as a simple soap dispenser can add the finishing touches to your space, complemented further by a statement mirror. When pairing with baths, accent the bathroom further by styling with a floorstanding tap and plush towels to contrast textures.
Travertine’s natural texture and versatility make it a perfect choice for neutral, sophisticated interiors, offering both timeless beauty and effortless style.
