Over the years, the décor in bathrooms has evolved to include both functional and aesthetic pieces that improve the appearance of the room. Currently, various trends are gradually making way into every home, and most people do not want to be left out. If you are renovating this area of your house or finishing up construction, there are specific new trends in British bathroom decoration that you may find appealing for your bathroom. Both classic and contemporary changes such as glass mosaics on shower floor are available, offering a variety of options for homeowners. Here are some of the top trends in bathroom decorations that you can consider:
Wood finishes
Wood is one of the materials that most people tend to avoid in the bathroom as exposure moisture ruins it. In recent times, however, it is possible to find wood finishes that are resistant to the conditions in the bathroom. This type of wood brings tranquillity to the bathroom and gives it the outdoors feel. The natural textures in the bathroom are something that most people yearn for thus propelling the growth of this trend further. To bring the feel of wood into a room, some people choose to use other materials such as ceramic and wallpapers with the print and finish. On the other hand, some people choose to use treated wood for a wholesome experience.
Metallic fixtures and finishes
The bathroom has an array of fixtures that one can explore to improve the beauty of the space. Metallic fixtures such as taps, towel, and cabinet handles give you the chance to upgrade your bathroom and make a statement. Brass is the metal taking the world by storm right now, and interior designers in the UK love the trend. Brass can be paired with other materials such as marble to elevate the look of the room effortlessly. This metal gives the bathroom an elegant look, and it is also easy to clean and maintain. This material can resist the conditions in the bathroom. It weathers well, which explains why it is a trend that most homeowners are willing to explore.
Statement shower heads
Gone are the days when people had a hard time finding the appropriate shower head (for example, a low flow shower head) for their bathroom. There is an assortment of showers in the market currently with the right finishes and colour schemes. This has influenced a decent number of households to replace their existing showerheads with the statement pieces in the market which have better features and improve the general appearance of the bathroom. The colour you pick should complement the existing décor and furnishings in the bathroom.
It is best to work with an interior designer and other professionals to make your bathroom a space to behold. The design of the house and construction will affect the choice of furnishing and fixtures to use, especially for renovations. Before trying out any of the trends we discussed above or others that you may find, it is before to consult an expert to know more about it and the durability of the same.
