Bathroom Design Trends
Did you know that bathroom design is becoming grander and more sumptuous? “The bathroom has become a sanctuary for all the senses,” says designer Nelson Costa. Top design trends include: Natural leanings – More wood, often of exotic origin, is being used in bathroom furnishings while tubs and fixtures are appearing in softer more organic shapes. Baroque influences – Ornate patterns, elegant florals, embossed and hammered surfaces and even the odd chandelier are adding interest and depth. Faux textures – New tiles have the capacity to mimic lace, linen and even leather surfaces. Showy showers - Huge, walk-in showers feature grand waterworks and unlimited accessories.
