5 Popular Styles for Modern Bathrooms

Chrome has always been a popular choice in bathroom design, offering a clean, conventional look. However, in recent times, this high-shine finish has been swapped out for a more muted look. Brushed Nickel brings the long-standing appeal of Chrome into the bathroom while creating a soft, warm and matte-like alternative that results in less reflective surfaces and a more relaxing aesthetic that is desirable in modern bathroom spaces. Our Brushed Nickel finish can be found across all categories, from brassware and showering to accessories and lighting.

As the desire for soothing natural aesthetics in the home continues to grow, wooden finishes have become a trending feature. With natural colours, beautiful wood grain aesthetics and stunning textures, wooden furniture is the perfect way to bring a touch of the outside into your bathroom space. Wooden furniture also offers a variety of shades to suit your bathroom design. Lighter woods, such as oak, are becoming popular for modern designs, while darker woods, such as walnut, are trending for more transitional designs.

Bathroom storage has also seen a shift towards hidden furniture, with people moving away from open shelves to concealed storage and wall-hung vanity units to remove clutter. The vanity unit is the perfect way to bring in wooden finishes.

The idea of a spa-inspired bathroom has grown in appeal, with more and more people seeking a bathroom full of tranquillity and relaxation. With this in mind, freestanding baths remain a popular focal point in modern bathroom design. Creating a welcoming and soothing bathing experience, a freestanding bath is the epitome of mindful relaxation and wellness rituals. As a focal point within the bathroom, they also offer a luxurious and sophisticated appeal. Our freestanding baths offer a variety of shapes and sizes for different bathroom types.

In modern times, a bathroom is no longer just a functional space. This room is now seen as a sanctuary of peace and relaxation, a safe space of wellness. The atmosphere achieved within the design is now a very important consideration. One way to create a specific mood or atmosphere is through lighting. Lighting is now being considered more closely within bathroom design, with the focus moving away from functionality to instead placing more consideration on mood and highlighting features. Our Tranquil lighting collection offers a range of modern lighting options that are perfect for creating different moods and highlighting different spaces within the bathroom.

The herringbone pattern remains an increasingly popular choice when it comes to tiles. While tiles are a common choice for bathroom walls, wall panels offer an alternative that is cost-effective, more hygienic and easier to install. Our tile-effect laminate wall panel collection gives the best of both worlds – the look and feel of tiles with all the benefits of wall panels. The Herringbone Tile Wall Panel presents this popular style in both sophisticated black and neutral white colourings to bring style and pattern into your modern bathroom.
