Our houses have evolved into more than simply a haven over the past two years. They have offered a place to work, a place to reconnect with family, and a getaway from the pressures of the outside world. Our homes are places of tranquility and rejuvenation – and nowhere is this more apparent than in the bathroom. Currently, designers are seeking inspiration from spas. Modern bathroom trends for 2022 include calming colours, handcrafted tiles, and antique details which will set your space apart and make it the warm, restorative retreat you deserve.
Statement Lighting
Refrain from sconces and create a statement with large, striking lighting options. Consider crystal, metallics, vivid hues or large sizes to make a statement. Unusual placements for chandeliers (such as in the bathroom) are surprising and fascinating.
Colour and Texture
Skip the all-white spa and go for something with a bit more colour. Cream, rose, seafoam, and mint, as well as jewel tones and darker, more muted colours, are all back in style. Give up perfection for character, and look for Moroccan tiles with rough edges which look like they were made by hand. Textured rattan, sea grass, or woven cotton can be used to cover the walls. Don’t be afraid to mix things up and do something different.
Green and Growing
Nature is back in a big way thanks to prints, wallpaper, colours, and styles that are all based on plants. With white linens, look for deep greens like hunter, forest, emerald and tidewater. Add living plants like pothos, fern, and other species which like to be wet to a bathroom to make it more neutral. Plants have the power to clean the air and your mind.
Floating Sinks
With a floating sink, you can show off your floors and make a bold statement. With hardware and cabinets on the wall, your bathroom will not only feel bigger, but it will also be a great way to make the most of the space you have. Exposed plumbing gives you a chance to show off unique pipes or finishes which would be hidden otherwise.
Freestanding Tubs
Tubs can be pulled out to stand on their own, just like sinks that float. Designers are really getting into the spa-like look by creating round, oval, and uniquely curved models with iron, copper and porcelain finishes, as well as unique shapes and mounting hardware. A beautiful tub with clean lines can be the real focal point of your bathroom’s design.
Living Metals
Swap perfect finishes for ones that look a little more lived-in. Use patina to make things look older and worn. Look for copper, brass that hasn’t been finished, bronze, or pewter to change and age over time. A little bit of vintage, mixed with clean lines and modern design, strikes the perfect balance between old and new.
Upgraded Vanities
Upgrade from a simple pedestal to make your vanity stand out. To make a bold statement in the bathroom, look for repurposed furniture, large sideboards and mid-mod style. Dressers and tables from the past are also a fun way to add something unique to the bathroom. They may have intricate carvings, bright colours, or wood that has been aged in a creative way.
Unique Tile Installations
Lastly, we usually use tile in bathrooms, but today’s designers aren’t just using simple, high-gloss colours. For a futuristic look, buy encaustic or cement tiles with eccentric shapes and patterns, buy handmade Moroccan zellige, or try out different layouts and installations. This year, there will be a lot of floor-to-ceiling tiles; ceramic and porcelain tiles will be the most popular.
