Are you thinking of redoing your bathroom this year? You do not have to completely renovate your space. Try adding  some of these features to your bathroom this year to create a new look and feel. We’ll take you through some options to incorporate into your space.

Warm Metals

Bring brushed metals into your bathroom space. Add the shine of brass or gold to incorporate warmer tones. Adding earthy tones to warm metals can offer contemporary designs and contrasting tones. You can add dimension to your bathroom by mixing the metals of your faucets, hardware, lighting, and shower handles. By changing these, you can bring a modern and expensive look to your bathroom without going past your budget. 

Tile Wall Design

While paint and wallpaper are the first things that come to mind for our walls, tiles can be added to your bathroom instead to create a different look. Something being carried into 2023 is the growing trend of vintage designs and what is more vintage than checkerboard? Adding checkerboard tiles to your walls can create that gorgeous old school feel, bringing back all of the 70’s nostalgia. 

By adding tiles to your bathroom you bring in a variety of designs, durability, style and water resistance. Add this retro design to your bathroom this year. 

Earthy colours

All white bathrooms had their time for quite a while, but 2023 is the year where they are out. Bring in neutral, earth-toned vibes. Incorporating colours like chocolate brown, caramel, green, and creamy off-white to your bathroom can take it to the next level. Earth tones are considered friendly, contemporary and inviting. They also bring in a feeling of relaxation and calmness. If this sounds like the personality you’re aiming for, give earthy tones a try this year.

Add wood

Add the feeling of warmth to your bathroom space by adding timber and wood accessories. The European wood flooring look is on the watch list for bathroom trends in 2023. 

It may not be the sleek look of marble and painted walls that you are used to seeing in traditional bathrooms, but it provides the feeling of coziness and is inviting. Throw out that painted cabinetry and add the look of warmer wood back in. There are various different shades and textures of wood that you can add to your space. White oak and cedar are some pieces you can bring to your bathroom this year.

Freestanding tubs

Custom and freestanding tubs are nothing new and the trend is here to stay. Round or square flat-bottomed tubs have been one of the top-selling features in homes and increase the value of the home. They are the perfect, beautiful focal point to your space. These tubs create a spa-like feeling and make it the perfect space to practise self-care. Pair the tub with metal accents, such as gold faucets to enhance the look even more and create that luxurious feel in your bathroom. Don’t forget the amazing relaxation you’ll feel, unwinding with a nice bath at the end of the day in such a beautiful tub.

Natural Stone

Having a natural stone vanity can change the tone of your space. This unique look will make your bathroom stand out from the rest. Adding a marble look to your space brings a chic and aesthetically pleasing atmosphere to your space. 

Natural stone is also heat resistant which is a huge pro to be used in a bathroom setting. Here are some types of countertops you can add to your bathroom:

Marble, Quartzite, Travertine, Granite, Soapstone, and Limestone. 

Mix and Match

Opposites still attract. Bring the drama into your space!

With highly contrasting colours you are able to create a modern look in your bathroom space, while allowing your personality to shine through.

Some contrasting colours that make the perfect pair include:

• Black and white

• Green and magenta

• Blue and yellow

Incorporate these colours by adding them into your paint, towels, shower curtains, floor mats and bathroom accessories. 

Colourful Sinks

As many traditional styles are leaving, so are the traditional white sinks. 2023 is the year of colourful sinks and we’re all for it. They can be used in any size bathroom to create a pop of colour, but are even more perfect for elevating the look of a small washroom. Pair the colourful sink with a bold wall paint for an even more beautiful look and let your sink be the focal point. Want to take it even further? Swap out the faucet for a gold or brass toned metal, making the colours pop out even more. One combination we’re loving is a jewel-toned blue with gold accents.  

In Summary…

There are many ways you can change your bathroom look in 2023. From the economical option of changing out the hardware, towels, and lighting in your bathroom, to the addition of a freestanding tub and wood. Bathrooms have become a beautiful feature of your home and can easily be modified to suit your personal style.
