Future Trends For 2020

As 2019 draws to a close, bathroom trend predictions for 2020 are springing from left, right and centre.  If you’re thinking of giving your bathroom a revamp in the new year, check out these 2020 bathroom trends.

Minimalism

Minimalism is a timeless style that has been popular for many years. It’s classic features of basic colour, shapes and textures making the contents the focal point to create a sleek, stylish and modern feel. It’s also a very practical use for compact living, without compromising luxury over size. Minimalist style mimics a spa and therefore creates a calming and tranquil mood for your bathroom.

Woodworking

Woodworking in bathrooms is inspired by the traditional style Japanese woodwork. The wood replaces ceramic to exude a warmer tone in the bathroom, enabling a smoother transition between rooms, which is especially useful for houses with ensuites. A wooden theme is clean, modern and a more unique change from the slightly more popular minimalism. This trend gains momentum as earth-tone colours become trendier and homeowners seek a warmer tone in their family bathrooms.

Marble

Marble is a timeless trend that has been popular for years, much like minimalism. It is a beautiful stone which exudes luxury and is an artistic statement in itself. It is fresh and decorative, useful when trying to save money on decorations during a renovation.

Colour and material trends

Earth tones like beige, blond, forest green and charcoal are beginning to replace pinks and coppers. Brass, black and white metals are used more frequently to create a dynamic and trendy expression, whilst traditional Moroccan concrete tiles continue to gain momentum, specifically in peach and blush colours.

Functional trends: Elevated tapware

Elevated tap-ware comes back into fashion for 2020, creating simple silhouettes and elegant, clean and classy tones. Many opt for chrome, brushed nickel and matte black tap-ware to enhance this effect.

 Free standing vanities

A smart way to add storage, especially in compact bathrooms, free standing vanities are useful and sleek. They effortlessly blend into the rest of the bathroom without being clunky or in the way and are an easy way to save money during renovation. When paired with a bold colour choice, they can easily be made the focal point of the room.

Task lighting

 Lighting is important in creating the right mood in a bathroom, but it is equally as important to ensure there is enough light to function effectively. In 2020, trends suggest that feature lighting, retro styles and playful shades will be a popular choice in many UK bathrooms.
