Current Trends
Here are the current bathroom design trends.
-The spa shower: Homeowners love the feel of a spa shower which includes elements like a rain shower head, hand showers, and body sprays. The shower frame is also gaining footage and becoming more of a shower room with benches to sit on and hooks for soaps.
-Smart storage: Storage is becoming more and more popular in bathroom remodels. Double vanities with built-in wall to floor cabinetry is a smart and practical decision homeowners are currently making.
-Heated floors: Wouldn't it be nice to get out of the shower with your bare feet and feel the warmth? Well, now that's an option. Heated floors will warm up any area of the flooring that you wish to choose.
-Classic whites: The classic white subway tile will never go out of style. People love this look for its clean lines and charm. It can be paired with a lot of different paint and flooring options. Also, the latest trend with subway tile is its pairing with dark grout like gray or black. It is such a timeless look.
-Cabinets that look like furniture: A basic vanity is now overhauled with furniture characteristics like sculpted legs and paneling.
-Vessel sinks: Vessel sinks are sinks that sit on top of the vanity. Homeowners love the focal point and design it adds to the space. Vessel sinks are available in a range of materials like clear glass or stone.
-Media and music: Technology is definitely a priority in today's society, so why not install music and media in your bathroom as well. Increase the relaxation of taking a bath by binge watching your favorite show. Or kick off your day with upbeat music to get you in the right mood.
-Lighting: Go ahead and embrace your style with bold lighting options. Hang a chandelier, place backlighting around mirrors, toe-kick lighting underneath vanity, or add a dimmer on your overall lighting for ideal relaxation.
