Lady Gaga is a formidable presence in both music and film, so it is only natural that her residence – and her bathroom – reflects her iconic status. Her Malibu estate provides exactly that level of grandeur.
As the crisp February air lingers, the warmth of her design serves as the perfect inspiration for a late-winter home refresh, setting a high bar for luxury bathroom ideas far beyond the California coast. With its white and gold-veined marble, chandeliers, and abundance of brass accents, it’s a masterclass in loud luxury – but in a way that doesn’t feel audacious. I often think this aesthetic is too bold, but in her space, it’s oddly chic.

Lady Gaga frequently shares glimpses of her life via bathroom selfies. Given the surroundings, her penchant for these photos is understandable. Her space features stunning swirled golden and white marble, a spa-style shower, and a signature chandelier. While the entire home radiates luxury, the marble surfaces remain the true centerpiece.
‘Marble is a classic material that always looks expensive and is available in many variations,’ notes Chicago-based designer Molly McGinness. To replicate this look in your own home, Molly suggests considering the tone of the stone.
‘Which white [marble] you choose depends on what kind of veining you like, warm or cold – or if you are trying to select something with minimal veining. So, you combine a beautiful and timeless material like white marble with a trendier finish like gold, and suddenly you have a new popular combination.’
Molly further explains that ‘Celebrity or not, most people want to keep up with trends, and when they renovate their home, they are going to choose an updated look. Gold, of course, exudes a more luxe look, so combining it with marble is a natural choice.’
Phoenix-based designer Emily Yeates agrees, noting that this bathroom color combination offers a perfect balance of cleanliness and elegance. ‘White and gold are often used in bathrooms as a sign of luxury because they create a clean, elegant, and timeless look that exudes sophistication and class,’ she says. ‘White is a classic color that creates a sense of purity, cleanliness, and freshness, while gold represents wealth, elegance, and luxury.’
To capture this aesthetic, Emily recommends using white as the primary shade for walls, floors, and fixtures, then layering in gold accents through towel racks, soap dishes, and hardware. Swapping out faucets, showerheads, and drawer pulls for gold versions adds immediate glamour, as do reflective surfaces.

‘Choose high-end materials like marble or quartzite for countertops and floors to create a luxurious feel,’ Emily advises. ‘[Also], Incorporate gold-framed mirrors [like this one from Wayfair] or artwork to add dimension and depth to the space while elevating the overall design.’
For a budget-friendly winter pick-me-up, Emily suggests adding indoor plants. These ‘bring life and freshness to the bathroom while also providing a nice contrast to the white and gold color scheme.’
Whether you are hiding out for the remaining cold weeks or prepping for a spring update, following Gaga’s lead is a guaranteed way to elevate your daily routine.
