Top 7 Bathroom Design Trends

Texture on the wall is a hot trend. Tile is the best way to accomplish the look. Whether a raised geometric shape or rustic, split face stone, texture will add richness to the space that is difficult to achieve in other ways. The shower is the number one place to put textured tile as it invokes a luxurious, spa feel.

Free-standing tubs with wall-mounted faucets are perfect companions to a tiled feature wall. Large-format tile in a stone look or sleek concrete look is on-trend. (Bookmatched slab is sure to WOW!) Or try a unique mosaic to add a little bling to the space.

Another leading trend is unique lighting. Chandeliers or sconces over the vanity or tub set the tone for a spectacular, upscale bathroom.

Tile is stunning in any light. If your design incorporates extraordinary lighting, we suggest a neutral-color stone or tile to provide a subdued supporting role so your lighting remains the main focal point.

Patterns are a hit in bathroom design right now and generate a high contrast look that still exudes fresh style. Or create patterns like herringbone or checkerboard with your tile for an eye-catching design.

If your budget allows, take it to the next level by choosing opulent natural stone subway tile.

 

Wood look tile is another gorgeous option for patterning. It adds personality without overwhelming the room.

Richer colors, on the whole, are in vogue. And the darker the color, the more neutral it becomes. Look for dark green, purple, and blue making an appearance in bathroom design-especially the powder room.

Natural stone-inspired porcelain slab in a dark color is an alluring option. Darker wood look tones or beautiful fabric-inspired looks in darker colors are other exquisite alternatives. Whether on the walls or floor, dark tile enriches the bathroom space.

Vintage motif has been mainstream for several years but has been growing in popularity exponentially over the last couple of years. While tile has been around for hundreds of years, many of its original styles - encaustic tile, black and white hex, glossy ceramic, Turkish or Moroccan mosaic shapes - are prominent again today.
