Winter is coming, and with it, a whole new set of bathroom design trends for the new year. We’ve got you covered below for all of our top tips so that you’re ahead of the game!

Wellness

With an increasing move towards remote work, more and more of us are spending time at home at unprecedented rates. Bathrooms are now considered a place of comfort and a sanctuary from the outside world. An ‘at-home’ spa can be achieved by anyone and everyone, and we recommend starting with the basics: ambient lighting, a deep, free-standing bathtub, and a good performance shower. These are all synonymous with luxurious spaces and create a serene environment. Additional extras such as fitting in a sauna or steam room, for example the ‘Touch and Steam’ by Effegibi, also help to emphasise a serene and luxurious atmosphere.

Smart and Sustainable Bathrooms

Advances in smart home integration, and eco-friendly materials have helped to transform sustainable bathroom design and help turn the bathroom into a modern, efficient space. Technology continues to revolutionise our bathrooms. Smart mirrors with integrated LED lighting, temperature control and voice-activated automation and entertainment systems simplifying tasks whilst providing a touch of luxury. We also recommend water-saving showerheads, energy efficient lighting and ventilation as well as dual flush toilets for a smart and sustainable bathroom!

Nature-inspired

Connecting with nature has been a dominant theme in bathroom design for 2023, and will remain as we head into 2024. Homeowners are seeking a tranquil escape in their bathrooms, by incorporating natural elements. Earthy tones are perfect for walls and tiles, whilst flooring and vanities in natural materials like stone and wood adds further depth and warmth to the space. Optional extras such as indoor plants and botanical-themed wallpaper add a sense of peace and harmony.

In conclusion, the bathrooms of 2024 will lean towards being high-tech wellness retreats with the focus on sustainability, a spa-like environment and smart technology to create a hub of health, serenity and relaxation.
