Are you considering a bathroom update or renovation? Check out these design trends that experts predict will dominate in 2024. Although you may not spend as much time in the bathroom as other areas of your home, it is still a great place to experiment with new design ideas.
1. Bold Countertops
It has been observed that homeowners with minimalist and neutral homes are willing to take more risks with bathroom countertops than with kitchen ones. Homeowners are opting for colored marble, waterfall edges, and extra-thick slabs to add a pop of color and texture to their bathrooms.
2. Fancy Lighting
According to Leigh Spicher, National Director of Design Studios for Ashton Woods Homes, more homeowners are requesting mini chandeliers and decorative sconces to light up their powder rooms. This attention to detail ensures that even the smallest areas of the home are well-accessorized and no longer an afterthought.
3. Playful Wallpaper
Playful wallpaper can create an elevated mood just as much as dramatic prints. Whimsical patterns are making a comeback, and homeowners are using them to add a cheerful touch to their powder rooms.
4. Under-Cabinet Lighting
Installing ambient lighting under bathroom cabinets creates a soft, gentle glow that makes the space more inviting. Lighting is also an excellent way to highlight beautiful tile work. Under-cabinet lighting adds a touch of sophistication to any bathroom, making it look more elevated and custom.
5. Mixed Metals
In 2024, expect to see more mixed metals in bathroom design. Although this style has gone in and out of fashion, it will make a comeback. A pewter mirror looks fantastic with a bronze faucet, adding visual interest to the space.
6. An Unexpected Statement
While spa-like bathrooms are always on-trend, people will want to add a hint of unexpected character to their bathroom design. One way to achieve this is to use a geometric floor tile with neutral tones or a geometric design with a blue and white palette.
The combination of patterns with a soft color palette is a great way to add personality to a streamlined, serene bathroom design.
