As interior design trends continuously evolve, bathrooms are areas of the home that often see updated displays of creativity. From vanities, mirrors and tubs to tile, fixtures and finishes, designing a trend-forward bathroom means incorporating elements of personality and modern manufacturing. Fleurco proudly stands at the forefront of curated style, setting the standard for beautiful, functional and safe spaces at home. Read on to explore design trends shaping contemporary bathrooms.
Consumers are leaning more heavily toward personalization in the bathroom, now more than ever treating this space as a sanctuary of self. With that shift has come a greater emphasis on color. Gone are the days of all-white bathrooms with plain subway tile and matching plumbing fixtures. Life has been breathed back into the home through patterned wallpaper and tile, warm hardware finishes and uniquely elegant statement pieces.
At this crossroads of performance and aesthetic is the Solfege freestanding acrylic bathtub. Its harmonious duo-tone design features a glossy white interior that is easy to clean and shines with sophistication. It is complemented by a choice between three soft exterior finishes: Matte Champagne, Matte Rosemary Green or Glossy White. Solfege brings back the classic aesthetic of colored porcelain tubs but in fresh hues and durable materials.
Glass shower doors continue to dominate the market, serving as a focal point in high-end bathrooms. They are popular for their ability to make bathrooms appear brighter, larger and more luxurious. Trending glass types include clear, frosted, smoked and fluted.
Those with smaller layouts need not sacrifice style for space with Closiq. The Closiq shower door is a refined solution for compact bathrooms. Designed to open inward with a unique 0- to 90-degree glide, this innovative shower door eliminates the need for clearance outside the space. With clean lines and a minimalist profile, Closiq blends effortlessly into a contemporary interior. Options include clear or smoked grey tempered glass; Chrome, Brushed Nickel, Matte Black and Gun Metal finishes; and 2-sided or cube configurations.
Wet rooms and showers are often areas that require constant upkeep. Homeowners and designers are prioritizing durability and low-maintenance materials to combat the struggle of continuous cleaning. Traditional tiled walls, though beautiful, demand maintenance to preserve their impressive appearance. Residue buildup occurs after every shower and can become unhygienic without frequent scrubbing.
Fibo by Fleurco Wall Systems offer a refined alternative: the elevated look of natural materials without the work. Designed for modern living, each panel features the patented Aqualock click system that creates a fully waterproof surface when paired with Fibo sealant. Specifically designed kits are pre-measured to accommodate all standard shower enclosures for alcove, two-sided and corner configurations. Fibo by Fleurco Wall Systems are available in nine luxurious patterns to complement a wide range of bathroom aesthetics.
Safety transcends trends and is paramount in any residential project. Keeping families secure and comfortable in their homes is top of mind for anyone taking on a new build or renovation. When selecting materials that deliver on style, be sure to factor in safety. Glass shower doors, for example, are stunning but could pose risk of injury if not carefully manufactured or installed.
FleurcoSEKUR+ Safety Protection is a transparent film bonded directly onto the shower door glass panel by means of an adhesive to improve safety, retaining the pieces together in the event of glass breakage. The film holds the glass together, similar to a car windshield, providing an extra layer of protection for your home. It is durable, having been tested for long-term usage against chemicals and normal wear.
