April 12, 2016 Bathroom

The design of a bathroom can either add or detract from the value of a home, which is why it’s important to keep your bathrooms updated and on-trend. Need a little inspiration to help you get started? Take a look at our list of the top bathroom trends for 2016!

Wood

In the past many homeowners and builders have shied away from using wooden materials in the bathroom, but that is all now changing. In fact, sustainable woods such as bamboo, pine and cedar have been becoming popular choices for the floors, ceilings and walls of bathrooms.

Greenery

Another bathroom trend for 2016 is the addition of greenery. Adding plants or flowers to a bathroom is known to promote calmness and grounding. For added benefits, you may want to consider adding a couple of air-purifying plants, such as palms and ferns, to your bathroom space in order to improve the overall air quality in your home.

Freestanding Bathtubs

These days built-in bathtubs are becoming a thing of the past. Homeowners and designers are instead choosing to install freestanding bathtubs in the bathroom because they add drama to a space and they can be easily replaced when needed.

Water Efficient Appliances

Thanks to modern day technology, various household appliances and fixtures are becoming more affordable and more efficient. Most of the major household brands now offer inexpensive shower heads, faucets and toilets which conserve water and save money without compromising the user experience.

Steam Showers

Steam showers are also becoming a norm in new builds as many home buyers are putting them at the top of their priority list. It’s no wonder why so many people prefer to purchase a home with a steam shower because they provide detoxing benefits as well as a steamy escape from our ever-increasingly busy lives.

Heated Floors

Modern homes are designed around the comfort of the inhabitants, which is why heated floors in the bathroom have been gaining in popularity. There’s just nothing like stepping out of a warm bath or shower and placing your feet on a heated floor instead of a frigidly cold one.

All White

White on white designs provide bathrooms with a chic and clean quality in accordance with today’s trends. If you decide to go with an all white bathroom, just be sure to keep it squeaky clean as messes will be immediately noticeable.

Sculptured Tile

Traditional bathroom tile is flat and smooth, but textured tile is expected to become a thing in 2016 and beyond. Tile designers have been putting together sculptured tile that gives bathrooms a touch of custom luxuriousness.

Marble

Marble is a trendy material choice for the bathroom because it looks glamorous, it’s easy to maintain and it is extremely durable.

Stone

Many modern home designs incorporate a great deal of stone and timber in order to bring a bit of rustic flair to the home. Stone walls in the bathroom add earthiness to any style of décor, which is why it is looking like it will be one of the favorite bathroom trends for 2016.

Bathroom design has never looked so good. If you are planning to build or remodel sometime soon, don’t forget to be on the lookout for these bathroom trends of 2016!
