If you want to beautify your home this year to get a better price on sale or to make it more beautiful, practical and enjoyable for you, it is advisable to keep an eye on the latest trends in interior design.
Especially if you are planning to renovate your bathroom, there are all sorts of tips and ideas you can get by looking at the trends that will affect wet room design in 2021.
Statement lighting
One of the essential elements of any bathroom is high quality lighting. In 2021 we will see this in no time as the focus is more on getting the bathroom lighting right. The trend is growing, especially for backlit mirrors and medicine cabinets. Instead of relying on ceiling lights that may not be adequately lit for many needs like makeup applying and shaving, today's bathrooms use backlighting for better results. Illuminated models provide household members with helpful ambient lighting that avoids additional glare or reflections on mirrors. The new products with backlighting have integrated lighting functions that can also be used as night lights when the light is dimmed. There is currently also a trend towards luxurious lighting on the ceiling. Wall lamps are no longer enough; More and more designers are creating bathrooms with eye-catching pendant lights or, in some cases, even great chandeliers.
Back to bathing
In recent years, the main emphasis in bathrooms has been on creating large walk-in showers with multiple shower heads, built-in storage spaces, and sometimes even bench seats. In 2021, however, the focus will be much more on bathing. Perhaps after a rough year, many of us try to hide our worries in the bubbles of a deep, hot bath. If you love relaxing with a long bath, you will love this trend of bathtubs taking center stage.
If you're looking to do a colon cleanse in your bathroom, this is the perfect time to redesign the space for a bathtub. Even if you don't have the largest space to work, space-saving bathtubs are becoming more readily available and don't require as much time or water to fill up, which is a bonus. Search for “construction companies near me” or “bathroom builders” to find contractors in your area who can make your vision a reality. While claw foot models and more decorative plinths always have their place, we'll see a lot more freestanding tubs in 2021, especially those with flat bottoms or marble ones.
Tiles in wood look
Choosing the tiles in a bathroom can be a challenge with so many products to choose from. If you want to be on trend in the design of your wet room this year, consider tiles that look like wood. Many manufacturers offer ceramic and porcelain tile products that mimic natural hardwood surfaces. This option gives you the versatility, durability and ease of care of ceramic or porcelain materials combined with the organic, warm styles that pay homage to nature.
Nods to nature
Speaking of nature: the bathroom trends of 2021 continue to give preference to nature, as people integrate botanical elements into their wet rooms. You can follow this example by adding plants to your bathroom, whether they are real potted plants or artificial plants. You can also choose tiles or wallpaper adorned with flowers, trees, or other nature-inspired motifs to create a sunny atmosphere. Perhaps you choose room materials made of stone, terracotta, wood, and other earthy textures with tactile surfaces that are anything but clinical and cold. When it comes to furniture, think of nature-based shades such as eye-catching greens, calming blues and warm bronze, rust, biscuit and caramel. Green hues add depth and boldness to a bathroom.
Smart devices
With smart home devices growing in popularity, it's no wonder that innovative technologies are making their way into the bathroom. There are many options to check out these days, especially when it comes to smart toilets. Look for products with hands-free components like self-closing lids and no-touch flush, as well as self-cleaning technology that will reduce all germs and make bathrooms cleaner and healthier. There are also automatic hand wipe sensors, defog mirrors, and increased use of built-in LED temperature indicators, as well as charging and USB ports for external devices. Some other bathroom trends to discover include graphic wallpaper designs, retreat vibes when people turn their wet rooms into peaceful spa sanctuaries, and a lot more color, not to mention the use of whimsy black. Use one or more of these 2021 trends to design a bathroom for your home that has an impressive “wow” effect.
