Is it time for a Bathroom Remodel?
Here are a few current trends and ideas to consider:
Showers
Large showers have been really growing in popularity in the last few years. And it continues taking the place of the traditional tub and smaller stand-up shower, larger showers are practical and make better use of the space. When planning your bathroom remodel, consider an accessible shower with a barrier-free entry and slip-resistant tiles. To add more function, safety, and comfort, add a handheld shower, rain shower, and corner bench seat.
Tile
The new bathroom trends includes larger uncomplicated tiles as they provide an open feeling to the bathroom area and make the room seem larger.
Low-maintenance quartz
Although granite is still a common choice for bathroom counters, low-maintenance quartz composites are rapidly gaining popularity. They require the minimal effort to clean and maintain (which is excellent in a wet space) and look great.
A Touch of Luxury
While it is quite a bit more than a touch of luxury, the biggest trend in bathroom designs, and one that encompasses various other trends, is the home spa. Bathrooms are no longer stark places used only for basic use. They can be luxurious sanctuaries. They are, in essence, whatever you want them to be. There are a number of trends that make up the home spa, ranging from bathroom size, fixtures, furniture, materials and more.
Small bathrooms
When incorporating small bathroom ideas, it is very important to decorate with lighter colors that makes the room feel brighter and even larger than it really is. Always be liberal in your use of mirrors, as they tend to increase the look and achieve the illusion of a larger room. The type of lighting that you choose will also make the difference between a dark and dreary room and a light and sunny one. If there is no way to add a window or even a skylight to the room, consider your choice of illumination. Incandescent or fluorescent lighting will achieve completely different looks.
