Top trends for a bathroom makeover

Posted on: Tuesday, February 20, 2024


If you’re looking to enhance the value of your home, a modernised kitchen or bathroom is the way to go. However, a full kitchen renovation isn’t always an affordable option, so you might want to focus on the small yet dynamic space of your bathroom. Here are some of the top current trends for a fresh bathroom makeover. 

Spa aesthetics 

Modern bathrooms are much like personal spas, with soothing design elements and plenty of space for self-care essentials. Luxury finishes like thick glass doors, detailed mosaic tile, and quartz countertops create a room that offers an experience rather than just utility.  

Colour schemes 

Your bathroom is the perfect canvas to experiment with bright colours and pull together an interesting scheme. While the rest of the home may call for calm neutrals, the bathroom might benefit from a splash of vibrancy – so take advantage!

Quirky hardware 

Make your bathroom space feel personal with some quirky hardware adjustments and unique fixtures. From vintage faucets to handmade doorknobs, embellishing your bathroom with original, eye-catching pieces is a great way to break up a monotonous space.

Showers with power 

Upgrading your home’s shower could be as simple and cost-effective as swapping out the shower head. There are hundreds of models online to choose from, each offering a completely different shower experience by altering the water pressure. From atmospheric rainfall showers to powerful flow-adapting handsets, there’s no reason to settle for poor water pressure.

Floating vanities 

Elevate your vanity area for a refined, modern appeal that won’t go out of style. Not only do floating vanities look great, but they also make room for extra floor space, storage, and strips of ambient lighting to tie the whole look together. 

Wallpaper 

A wallpapered bathroom might sound like an oxymoron, but with thousands of water-resistant options available today, you can safely style up your bathroom without fear of water damage. Waterproof wallpaper can be installed anywhere in the bathroom, even in the shower or behind a bath! This is an easy way to integrate a pop of colour and an eye-catching pattern while skipping the fuss of paint and tiles.

Freestanding bathtubs 

Give your bathroom a luxurious, sculptural feel with a freestanding tub. This is a design choice geared towards self-care and relaxation, often making the tub the central focus of the room. It also frees up some space along the walls for a vanity or storage drawers, so make the most of this trend by utilising every inch of floor space with leafy plants, hanging baskets and fluffy bathmats. 

Geometric patterns 

Geometric tile arrangements have surged in popularity due to their minimalistic yet impactful presence. Think soothing, symmetrical patterns such as herringbone, chevron and basketweave to create a subtle yet eye-catching feature wall or flooring. 

Natural materials 

Natural materials such as wood, marble, and ceramic aren’t likely to go out of style any time soon. These textures add a touch of nature to the bathroom, ideal for a space intended to refresh and invigorate.

I would highly recommend Hardings Estate Agents. They have excellent knowledge of Windsor and the surrounding areas, and are extremely professional, responsive and courteous. I would not hesitate to using them again the future. I recently dealt with Milica who was instrumental in securing us our new home in Windsor as well as the sale of our existing property. She was a fab negotiator and a real pleasure to work with from beginning to end. Thank you!

Hardings of Windsor managed our purchase with complete professionalism and went over and above in my opinion to manage the transaction and chain, resulting in a really smooth purchase. Milica at Hardings constantly provided timely updates and managed respective solicitors and the chain effectively, always responding quickly to queries. The whole transaction would not have happened without Milicas' focus on making all parties comfortable and satisfying all queries, not only professional but a delightful and welcoming personal approach that was a constant throughout. Thanks Hardings! Thanks Milica!

I would recommend using Hardings estate agents when buying or selling your property. Dominic (Scully) was always available, helpful and genuinely interested in my purchase and always calm and compassionate. If I ever move again my first choice will be Hardings.

Dom and the team at Hardings were so helpful and efficient when I purchased my flat - friendly and professional service and kept us up-to-date the whole way through the process. It was my first time buying and so was very nervous but they helped me feel at ease.

We recently purchased our new home with Hardings Estate Agents. The whole team there were very helpful and flexible with us, arranging viewings quickly on the same day. They were always quick to respond and if ever our point of contact was not there, the service did not change as they work well together as a team. We received a personalised service, which allowed the sale to proceed quickly. Thank you all and we recommend Hardings Estate Agents without hesitation.

What a pleasure it was to deal with Milica from Hardings. She sourced the perfect property for me and my family (while we were still abroad) and worked endlessly to put the deal together. I would give more than 5 stars if at all possible!
