UPDATING YOUR BATHROOM IN 2015

Five Trends in Bathroom Design

As a bathroom supply professional, bathroom designer, or home improvement enthusiast, you are constantly faced with design dilemmas.

Your family members or customers want you to help them choose the hottest design trends, best brand equipment and lowest cost. The current trends focus on specific technological changes, color changes, and ease of access features. To meet your client’s wishes, you need to know which trends are really hot and which are not.

Zen Peace

One main trend is to make the home bathroom be more like a spa. There are associated designs features including muted colors, easy access hand-less faucets and sophisticated sound systems. The goal is to create a calm refuge in a busy world that permits luxuriating in a warm tub, relaxing in a surround shower with variable nozzle positions and visuals that create a deep Zen like peace of mind.

The Greening of the Bathroom

Another important trend is the greening of the bathroom. The recent drought on the west coast has made people aware of how much bathrooms consume and waste water, which degrades the environment. People are beginning to experiment with green walls and oxygen producing plants in the bathroom. This opens up new product lines for vendors. Likewise, there are high tech controls of shower functions including water pressure and temperature. These technologies are attractive to modern customers in that they support personal choice and give a sense of good citizenship in saving water and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

An Entertainment Space

Another new trend is to make your customer’s bathroom an entertainment space. More marketable new equipment is available, which provides state of the art audio technology including wireless connections. In a world where music streaming is universal, it is a reasonable prediction that speakers and control sound systems will become a standard part of bathroom technology.

Extreme Linear Design

Another new trend is to maintain clean lines including natural wood lines and to make key features of the bathroom like the toilet disappear under cabinets and wood covers. Clutter is reduced and extreme linear design and functionality are enhanced.

Combining Disparate Elements

A final trend is the individualized combination of disparate elements. The customer may want a free standing Victorian ball and claw tub with a stained glass window and an ornate mirror. Of course, this could be coupled with a water less bath tub and a steam shower. The customer can combine the antique elegance of Victorian visuals with state-of-the-art colors and sound ambiance as well as innovative technology.
