The Types Of Towels Nate Berkus Always Recommends For The Bathroom

Picking the right towels for your home can feel like a challenge. There are so many options available at a wide range of retailers, including dollar stores and grocery stores. Plus, it's not just about picking the right fabrics — you need to choose the right color that suits you and your space as well. Considering Nate Berkus is not only an interior decorator but also has his own home collections available, he understands how to choose bathroom towels that work for you, whatever style of bathroom you have. As such, Berkus is all about quality pieces in colors that can easily be swapped out, specifically neutrals.

The designer believes that when it comes to home essentials worth buying, you should invest wisely. One of his suggestions for textiles in general is to consider neutral colors with texture. "I tend to reach for a neutral color scheme and things that have a patina and texture," as per Livingetc. Specifically when talking about towels, the key is to buy ones made from quality materials, especially cotton, as they will last longer while also feeling good to the touch. As Berkus explains, "...it all starts with the basics... Nothing feels more luxe than a fresh set of fluffy towels." Additionally, choosing neutral colors for your towels means that you can easily change them out as needed because of how versatile they are. Not to mention, they have a clean, versatile look that fits in any bathroom.

When choosing towels for your bathroom, nothing beats easily interchangeable pieces. You don't necessarily want people to notice when you make the switch — and luckily, neutral towels blend right in the space instead of drawing attention. Towels in white, beige, gray, and taupe also bring a bathroom design together by complementing everything from the color of the walls to any tiles or curtains being used. The cherry on top? Neutral-toned towels always look sophisticated because they don't clash with other bold prints. It's a big reason why so many people (and even businesses) choose white towels for their bathrooms, given their ability to feel timeless while pairing easily with other elements in the room. 

If you are trying to determine which neutrals to choose from, Nate Berkus' own line of towels features five colors that suit any bathroom. His collection includes navy blue, dark gray, light blue, beige, and white. While navy blue might not seem like a neutral shade, it is actually a rather versatile color that works similarly to a classic neutral. Even light blue works as a neutral, blending well with other colors you might find in a bathroom. Having both light and dark colors allows you to also swap out your towels based on the season, bringing in darker tones for fall and winter and lighter tones for spring and summer. No matter what color you have on your walls, these towels will complement your design, making them a great choice for adding a touch of luxury to your space.
