Statement Stone

Natural stone is always popular because it is easy to maintain. The design of the stone is diverse, including ceramic, porcelain, and marble.

The vast majority of homeowners are selecting ceramic or porcelain for their showers, with 82 percent using it for walls and 61 percent using the material for flooring.

Ceramic

Ceramic tiles are porous and absorb a lot of water, but they’re more affordable than porcelain alternatives. Each tile will also have multiple colors across its surface. This means that you can create a textured and layered look, especially when you use it on shower walls.

Porcelain

On the other hand, porcelain tiles absorb little water because of their non-porous surface. They last longer, but porcelain has a smoother finish and only displays one color throughout its design. This means that it’s more even than ceramic alternatives, which is ideal for some vintage look or minimalistic bathrooms but a worse fit for contemporary textured spaces.

Porcelain tiles have a low water absorption, a smooth finish, a single color, longer lasting, and are suitable for vintage or minimal bathrooms.

Marble

1 in 10 homeowners are also using marble in these spaces for a more luxurious shower. All-marble bathrooms are sophisticated and elegant, and they have a high-end classic look that never goes out of style. Other people are using quartzite, granite, and slate for showers.

Classic Elegance

A classically elegant space that is minimalistic and sophisticated. These contemporary designs frequently feature a lot of glass and polished lighting that reflects off all surfaces.

You can also use other bathroom design elements to create a sophisticated, high-end space.

Retro

Retro or vintage designs feature fixtures like circular pedestal sinks, honeycomb tiles, and iconic pastel hues. Mix and match various bold shapes and colors to create geometric tile configurations. Mixing and matching various textures and patterns on shower curtains and rugs can also add some vintage eye-grabbing appeal.

Antique

Checkerboard porcelain tile flooring, wood vanities, wood-framed mirrors, and brass light fixtures are elegant and classy.

Using a wood bath vanity in a contemporary bathroom is an awesome way to blend multiple styles. It’s eye-grabbing and has a bold style that can’t be emulated.

Black and White

Finding and using a black-and-white bathroom tiles idea will keep your space classy and simple. Black and white are neutral tones that go well with all other colors, so you can make yellow or blue trim pop.

But black and white is a great color combination in its own right. This bold color scheme makes a statement.

Dark Finishes

Dark finishes like Carbo Brushed VIATERA quartz countertops and black porcelain accent walls are sleek and simple. Black countertops also tend to have white veining. This provides a lot of contrast and visual appeal.

All White Walls and Cabinetry

You can pair these design elements with all-white walls and cabinetry for a lot of color and texture contrast.

This scheme is powerful and heavy-handed while having several psychological connotations. It’s invigorating, mentally stimulating, and can make us feel more awake on slow mornings.

Embrace Elegance

Elegance and refinement are the essence of luxury, so you’ll need to create a space that celebrates sophistication.

Embrace Elegance

Bold tile is a great way to do this regardless of what material you use. You can also use vinyl bathroom flooring in a wide range of colors. Blue, green, and yellow are great options.

Colorful Sinks

Colorful sinks are another great way to add a pop of color to your space. While pastel hues are vintage classics, bright colors also can add some style to an otherwise black-and-white space. Navy is also great for those who want simple designs.

Floating Shelves

Floating shelves that don’t have a top or bottom also are great additions to any bathroom. You can get them in clear colors of shining high-class metals. These shelves can effectively hold towels, creams, and other products as well as natural accents like small plants.

Unique Ideas

Unique design is also in vogue right now. This makes sense since personalizing your space can help you feel more individualistic. This individuality will likely make you more comfortable.

One-of-a-Kind Bathtubs

One-of-a-kind baths that you custom-design can come in a wide range of shapes and sizes. You can also choose the exact tile and materials you want. This makes it look perfect.

Geometric Tilework

Geometric tilework works wonders on floors, walls, and finishes. Whether you like honeycomb styles or checkerboard-looking squares, the possibilities are limitless. Bold lines make your space look more modern, too.

Exposed Pipes and Industrial Design

Exposed pipes and industrial design elements are also extremely unique. Exposed ductwork and piping make the house look big-city and sophisticated. They’re rustic and visually appealing.

Mix and Match

The latest bathroom tile trends frequently involve mixing and matching tiles. You can use multiple different shapes that fit together like stained glass.

Mix and Match Tiles

Differently-colored tiles also work well. This is especially true if you get multiple shades of the same hue and create a monochromatic design. When you do this and choose various shapes and textures, you get a lot of variety.

Blending Styles

Blending styles is another great way to mix and match in bathroom design. You can have some antique features like a vanity and pair them with contemporary floating shelves and a seamless glass shower surround.

Natural Comfort: Wood Bath Vanity Options and Beyond

A wood bathroom vanity top is strong, durable, and long-lasting when you care for and maintain it appropriately.

Wood Vanities

You can get these wood vanities in heavy oak, cedar, pine, or maple. It depends on whether you want warm or cool shades to match other decor.

Just make sure to use a veneer or sealant on the top to avoid changing temperatures warping it!

Natural Materials

You may also want to add natural materials like:

  • Granite and marble
  • Other wood varieties
  • Clay tiles and accents
  • Potted plants as decor

This will give your room a holistic, natural look.

Give a Sense of Space

Research shows that those living in cluttered spaces have decreased mental health. Clutter causes stress and anxiety. It also makes your mind prone to wander, decreases your working memory capabilities, and increases the risk of depression.

Storage Solutions

Making your bathroom feel larger with quality storage solutions is critical. Consider closed-shelf bathroom vanities and drawers underneath your countertops. Space-saving organizers are also important so you don’t have all your hair or shaving products sitting out and causing clutter.

Recessed Lighting

Bright recessed lighting also adds a sense of open space. You also won’t need to have big lamps and other light fixtures sitting around and taking up space.

Fundamental and Simple Shapes

Beyond recessed vanity lighting, using simple and fundamental shapes throughout your bathroom can help your space feel bigger. This gives it a contemporary feel and stops you from feeling cramped.

Minimalist Wall Sconces

Minimalist wall sconces that illuminate certain areas of your room add interesting shape and texture. You can put them above your vanity to add more light to the place where you’ll be doing your hair and applying makeup. This will make it easier for you to see and focus on tasks.

Seamless Glass Showers

A seamless shower wall made from glass is also simple and elegant. The sleek surface won’t make your room look cluttered and the shower fog will provide a sense of natural privacy.

Bathroom Color Trends

Regardless of how much color you want in your bathroom, you’ll need to know what hues are in vogue in 2024.

Rich Earthy Hues

If you want an all-natural look, consider rich earthy hues like green and brown. These contemporary colors always work well together because they pair in nature, so your bathroom will make you feel refreshed.

Olive Green

Olive green is a top choice for those who want cooler hues. It’s dark and goes well with brighter greens for a holistic monochromatic color palette. Consider olive green shower walls with lime bathroom trim and forest-green finishes.

Seaside Blues

Seaside blues are also ideal because blue is the most calming color out there. It can help you relax and unwind in the bath or shower, and it goes with other popular hues like stark black and bright white. Pairing blue with yellow also invokes feelings of brightness, cheer, and joy.

Gold

Gold is another popular color to use in bathrooms, and it’s easy to incorporate in faucets and light fixtures. It gives a great contrast with seaside colors for a perfect look. Consider getting quartz or marble countertops with gold flecks in them, too.

Pretty Peachy

Those looking for something soft will also enjoy pretty peachy colors. They go well with high-contrast hues like gold and dark blue.
