Smart Saving Tip

A new coat of paint is a quick and affordable way to transform a room. Note that by choosing a paint specially designed for moist areas such as bathrooms, your wall surfaces will look like new for longer. 2023’s top colours for the bathroom? Shades of green and earthy tones continue to trend, but peachy pinks and terra cotta are also very sought after.

Vanities: The Star of Every Bathroom

Sleek, white cabinets continue to be a great choice for making bathrooms feel light and airy. However, it’s natural materials that are currently all the rage. Indeed, we’re seeing more and more light and dark wood vanities, which bring a warm, organic tone to the decor.

Pro Tip

In small bathrooms, opting for a more compact vanity is the key to saving space. If your bathroom doubles as a laundry room, go for stacked laundry appliances.

Faucets: An Important Change You Can DIY

Chrome and brushed nickel remain timeless faucet finishes, but you can also experiment with different finishes such as matte white, copper, or gold (brass, rose gold, etc.). You can even mix and match finishes to add a unique touch to your decor! But with its versatility and bold look, matte black is a trend that’s still going strong in 2023.

Shower or Bathtub: What to Choose for Your Space?

Elevating the shower routine is one of the main bathroom trends in 2023. We’re talking walk-in showers (also called “Italian showers”), comfortable shower seats, shower windows, and multiple showerheads for extra luxury. In addition to style, we’re looking for ways to make the space seem bigger while improving comfort. For example, glass showers give the impression of a larger, brighter bathroom. On the other hand, a freestanding or built-in white tub will age well regardless of the style of the space.

Lighting: A Small Change That Makes a Big Impact

Mirrors: An Instant Breath of Fresh Air

Sometimes, replacing your mirror is enough to give a bathroom an instant facelift. Mirrors with gold metallic frames, which are very much on-trend at the moment, will bring sparkle and refinement to any space. On the other hand, frameless mirrors are making a comeback!

Bathroom Accessories: Swap Out to Shake Up!

Swapping out your bathroom accessories—such as towel bars, soap dispensers, and toilet paper holders—can make a big impact on the overall look and feel of the space. With a wide range of styles, finishes, and materials to choose from, you can easily find accessories that match your personal taste and complement the overall design of your bathroom.

Sustainability rhymes with wellness, and 2023 is all about feeling good at home! There are many ways to make eco-friendly home decor choices: bidets, energy-efficient LED lights, electric floor heating, recycled and VOC-free paints, FSC-certified cabinetry, Energy Star and WaterSense-rated appliances and fixtures, smart products, and more.

3 Bathroom Trends to Avoid in Your Renovation

Don’t get us wrong: these additions look great. But we suggest you think twice before following these trends during your bathroom renovation project:

Statement patterns and wallpapers: Patterns can elevate a room and give it a unique twist. However, large or overly intricate designs can quickly become outdated or overwhelming.
Open shelves: We LOVE open shelves. However, they can also lead to clutter, especially for large households, if not organized right.
Large, freestanding bathtubs: While luxurious, they can be impractical. Create a bathroom space with an open floor plan that feels more serene by simply removing a tub and replacing it with a shower.
