It also maintains the bathroom’s modernity.

The floor and walls in this Fire Island bath are clad in Carrara marble (by Ann Sacks) tile to resist trapped moisture and tracked-in beach sand. The cool, monochromatic color scheme gives the room a soothing, spa-like feel.

Use this clever concealed storage spot to hold extra towels and linens.

This one fits perfectly into a window alcove, making it useful without taking up precious floor space.

It’s out of the way but still accessible for things you may need from time to time.
