Green building materials are all the rage in the home remodeling industry, and one flooring option that is gaining traction in design circles is cork flooring. This low-impact floor covering is ideal for bathrooms and can handle moisture far better than other options. However, decorating around this surface will provide unique challenges.

A bathroom vanity should be one of your first purchases, and since cork flooring is typically light brown, you should opt for a wooden piece of furniture. You can then add wooden blinds to your windows and a few other decorative accents to streamline the look of your space.

Of course, you'll also want to infuse a bit of color into your bathroom, so use your shower curtain, bath mats and a few scented candles to provide a pop of color for the area. You can switch these items out each season to give your bathroom a refreshing vibe.

Lastly, use a few metallic bathroom accessories like soap dishes, towel hangers and shelving to add a modern touch to your washroom. What decorative additions do you suggest for a homeowner with cork flooring?
