From unwinding with an inviting hot bath after a long day’s work to the first place you go to begin your day – the bathroom should be a place where you can feel calm and relaxed. Renovating your bathroom might be a hassle with changing design trends, but we’ve got you covered with the trends you can expect in 2021.
From fluted glass shower screens to clawfoot baths, here’s what to embrace when designing or revamping a bathroom in 2021.
With limitations on travel and a growth in the wellness sector, everyone wants a luxury spa/hotel bathroom experience at home. All-white bathrooms continue to be extremely popular and create a spa-like feel that is serene and clean. Steam rooms and saunas are also becoming regular fixtures in bathrooms of the 2020s.
Freestanding baths are the ultimate luxury in a bathroom. They make a wonderful focal point and are the perfect way to unwind at the end of a long day. Clawfoot baths in particular are becoming increasingly popular and offer a nod to the simpler times of the past.
Bathrooms can often be left feeling a little sterile and cold but rustic touches in timber can add warmth and depth. They also allow for the reuse or repurpose of pieces, which is pleasingly sustainable. Whether you prefer a look that’s dark and moody, or white and minimalist, adding a timber accent piece such as a vanity or wall feature – even something as small as a stool – is a fantastic way to create texture and dimension in your bathroom.
The newest trend to hit bathrooms is ribbed-glass shower screens and dividers. Chic without obscuring views nor sacrificing light, they provide subtle texture. Another new take on the shower screen is the black-gridded shower panel suitable for both contemporary and traditional bathing spaces.
Walk-in showers have become an increasingly popular choice in modern bathrooms as they seamlessly blend form and function. Slimline and functional, walk-in showers look fantastic because they don’t obstruct the flow in a bathroom. They are great for any size bathroom and are easy to clean.
