These 2022 Bathroom Customization Trends Turn Your Home Into a Spa
As you design your dream home, incorporate these trends to create a relaxing and beautiful bathroom.
Bathrooms are one of the most overlooked parts of custom home design. Although they might not get as much attention as common areas and kitchens, bathrooms are crucial spaces in the home. Especially as you design your primary bathroom, think through how to make the room feel inviting, relaxing, and luxurious. As you work to create the house you’ve always dreamed of, incorporate these trends to design a bathroom that serves as a relaxing escape from the stresses of everyday life.
Natural Elements
Natural elements like wood and stone are a great way to add an elegant touch to your bathroom space. They bring the outdoors in and create a warm, natural feeling that is both visually appealing and soothing. These materials are warm and inviting, even when they’re wet and cold.
Even in smaller-sized bathrooms, integrating natural elements can yield an elevated, spa-inspired look. With unique textures and plenty of visual interest, plus the opportunity for sustainable sourcing, natural materials are rising in popularity for good reason!
Standalone Tubs
Standalone tubs provide a dramatic focal point in the room while also maximizing space—which is especially important in bathrooms where square footage is limited. Standalone or even footed bathtubs are back in fashion and make a bold and classic statement in bathroom design. Especially if part of your self-care routine involves relaxing in the bath, customizing your brand new bathroom with a large and beautiful tub can take your at-home relaxation to a whole new level!
White Marble
White marble may be the most classic of all bathroom design elements, but that doesn’t mean it’s passe—if anything, it’s seeing a resurgence this year! White marble makes a bathroom feel instantly clean, bright, and luxurious. Plus, it holds up well to age! Pair it with bold tiling or black fixtures to create a striking contrast that will have you feeling like you stepped into your own private spa.
Matte Fixtures
When it comes to tying together each element of your bathroom stylistically, matte fixtures are the way to go. Shiny faucets and hardware can show scale buildup and quickly become hard to clean. Matte fixtures can be surprisingly reminiscent of old-fashioned plumbing hardware, but with an updated edge. They easily fit into any style of bathroom and feel modern without being too trendy.
Heated Floors
Heated floors are one of those touches that feel indulgent even if you only use them occasionally! With so many options for installation—from radiant heating mats to heated tiles—there’s no reason not to treat yourself to this luxurious customization. Even in warm climates, those first few minutes out of the bath or shower, or the early-morning bathroom trips, can feel a bit too chilly. Heated floors might just be the cozy touch you need to improve your whole day!
