• Renovating your bathroom can be both an exciting
  and challenging project. Bathroom remodels are
  one of the largest investments homeowners make
  after their kitchens and getting it right can
  seem stressful since most people update their
  bathrooms every 15-20 years and dont want to
  feel stuck with the finishes they chose. It is
  important to consider the balance between
  creating a space that is timeless but also in
  style. Here are some bathroom trends to consider
  adding to your space that you are sure to love
  for years to come.

• Nothing is more luxurious than a large shower! If
  you have a small space to work with, consider
  removing your bathtub and creating a larger
  shower instead. This is a great option if you
  have another bathtub in your home already. You
  can consider adding floor to ceiling glass and
  making it a steam sauna, or add a rain shower
  head to the center of the ceiling for the
  ultimate in luxury.

• You have probably heard of a double vanity but
  have not considered double water closets. If
  space is not an issue, this is an upgrade many
  homeowners seek out for their master bathroom. In
  order to not make your space feel like a public
  bathroom, do not place them side by side.
  Instead, separate the spaces, making one side of
  the room her water closet and vanity, and the
  other side his.

• Another trend to consider in your bathroom design
  is mixing metallic finishes. Do not be shy about
  choosing a faucet in one color and lighting or
  cabinet hardware in another. Adding a light
  fixture in a different finish makes it more of a
  statement piece, and hardware that does not match
  the rest of the space makes your vanity more
  interesting. You can also try this trend on your
  mirror as well. If you have a basic, builder
  grade frameless mirror, try framing it with a
  frame from MirrorMate. They offer stunning
  metallic styles such as the Kelso Gold Washed
  Silver, the Venetian Silver Wave, and the popular
  Pemaquid Dark Bronze. Your MirrorMate frame will
  give your space a completed look and create a
  beautiful focal point.

• Instead of thin bands of accent tile, or accent
  tile in a wall niche, the new trend in bathroom
  design is adding a larger scale accent tile to an
  entire wall of your shower or behind the sink.
  This creates a bolder design statement or a
  feature wall. You can achieve this look by using
  a contrasting color tile to the other walls,
  featuring a bold geometric pattern, or by simply
  running the main field tile in a different
  direction than the rest of the space. Experiment
  with layouts such as running your tile vertically
  on one wall, or creating a herringbone pattern.

• Vanities can be anything but basic! The new trend
  in bathroom cabinetry is experimenting with color
  in your bathroom. Choose a rich navy, a deep
  charcoal or a Kelly green for a pop of color.
  Experiment with rustic, ceruse wood tones for a
  reclaimed, modern farmhouse look. Select a
  lacquered white or black floating style for a
  sleek contemporary feel.
