Bathroom Trends

Today’s focus on a sustainable, healthy lifestyle is being mirrored in the bathroom. Earth-friendly functionality and enduring natural materials are creating spa-like ambiance.

Price points are competitive for green products such as low- and dual-flush toilets and low-flow showerheads, designed to use less water with less impact on natural resources.

Switching from a standard to a low- or dual-flush toilet can reduce water consumption from up to 20 litres per flush to between three and six litres per flush, for people serious about water economy.


Natural
The organic trend today is to keep it simple with soft clean lines, natural tones and contemporary appeal. While fixture and material choices are endless, the wild tile patterns are gone toward a more balanced look.

Healthy
Bathroom designs today have a clean look and feel and inspire health. Adding an infra-red sauna or steam room with multiple shower heads into a private en suite can transform functionality into a rejuvenating retreat.

Luxurious
Luxury has also stepped in. Bathroom furniture or vintage vanities can create an elegant powder room feel. Colored wood tones are in when it comes to custom cabinetry. Black and other dark grained high-gloss finished wood products have also gained popularity.

Sustainable
Eco-friendly doesn’t mean boring. Products such as sustainable hand-held shower heads can be digitally controlled with three-spray patterns and a spray dimmer to reduce water flow. The shower head can be used with an adjustable height shower bar for all family members.
