5 Bathroom Ideas to Inspire Your Next Renovation

Your bathroom is a place where you and your family spend time – every morning, every night, and in between! And of all the rooms in your home, your bathroom knows you the best, and that’s why it should be a place you can ready yourself for the day ahead, or wind down in the evening.

Ready to start your bathroom renovation, or just in need of some inspo to kickstart your journey? We have done the homework for you so you can be inspired when you are renovating one of the busiest rooms in your home!

1. Colour and Texture

In 2023, inspiring colours and tactile textures are making stunning statements in ensuites, powder rooms, and family bathrooms. From pops of colour to covering entire walls, strong and bold shades – from jade to fuchsia are being seen in tile choices. Gloss tiles catch and reflect light, and textured tiles add interest and depth to the eye.

Coloured basins, from olive green to pastel pink, make a standout feature, adding character and playfulness to your bathroom.

2. Built In Bathroom Furniture

Introducing elements usually seen in other rooms adds interest and creativity to your bathroom. Built in floor to ceiling cabinets provide a sleek space for much-needed storage, while open shelving provides a place to display designer soaps and shampoos.

Planter boxes bring greenery to your bathroom space and can be built above windows for hanging vines to drape from, or in front of the window to bring the outside in.

3. Fluted and Smoked Glass

For a sophisticated and chic touch, we’re seeing fluted glass doors and smoked glass shower screens. Adding a little privacy, as well as an eye-catching feature, these treatments bring interest to otherwise expected clear glass options.

Fluted built-in glass screens diffuse light and can be used to obscure direct window views, while smoked glass shower screens bring a dramatic noir feel, creating a stunning feature piece.

4. Simple Shapes and Clean Lines

With a nod to the Art Deco and Mid-Century eras, tapware and shower fitting designs are seeing simple and elegant design trends.

Shower heads are making statements with brushed brass finishes to subtly reflect light and play with the eye. Taps and cabinet door furniture are being matched with other rooms to continue the feel of the entire home.

5. Nature All Round

From natural stone benchtops and splashbacks, to skylights that naturally illuminate your bathroom space, to French doors opening to a courtyard – one thing is for sure: Nature is in!

The benefit of seeing organic shapes and being in natural light is well-known, and when you can incorporate these into your daily morning and night routine, we see why this trend is here to stay.

Cleverly placed high and low windows allow natural light in, and the addition of a door to the outside is a decadent feature that makes your bathroom a standout.

Taking natural stone from the benchtop to the splashback makes a beautiful visual statement, and the continuity makes the space appear more abundant.
