Free Standing Baths

Free standing baths are predicted to be big in 2017 and they look great! They are perfect for adding a luxurious feel to your bathroom and available in a variety of styles from the traditional period look to modern incarnations.

A stand out focal point for your bathroom, freestanding baths set the tone for the rest of the décor. A carefully considered tile choice creates a look and feel that wouldn’t be out of place in a stately home. Looking for someone to install your new free standing bath?

Victorian Style Tiles

Staying with the period theme, traditional Victorian style tiles are predicted to be big this year and it’s clear to see why. They look great, with a style range featuring circles, squares and stars and a selection of colours from brown and pastel blue to deep reds, perfect for matching your existing or proposed bathroom style. Often spotted in Victorian homes, they make for an excellent talking point. 

Brass

Move aside, chrome. Brass is back on trend! Maybe you’ve already got your freestanding bath, you’ve picked some encaustic-effect tiles and now you want to keep your traditional look moving forward. If so then brass is definitely worth considering. Aside from their appearance, brass has a feel of luxury that when carefully colour coordinated against your décor, can create a modern and contemporary look.

From brass bath taps to the more inventive uses such as shelving, showerheads and mirrors, there is so much potential. Pinterest is ideal for finding inspiration and great ideas. A quick search for ‘brass bathroom’ returns plenty of excellent uses.

Heated Floors

Next up, a trend which we think will be at the top of every home owners’ bathroom wish list. We all know the feeling of stepping out of the warm bath or shower onto a cold floor, and it isn’t a nice one.

This year, however, that may all change. Heated floors are predicted to be more popular than ever. Add luxury to your bathroom and make the icy cold bathroom floor a thing of the past. Enlist the help of a local bathroom services company to get the ball moving.

Marble

From freestanding baths to brass taps, it seems that luxury is the reoccurring theme for 2017.

And what better way to achieve a luxurious look than with marble? Don’t worry if covering your home in marble is out of your price bracket, marble effect tiles are an affordable alternative to the real thing.

If you fancy something different still, why not consider marble wallpaper? It sounds strange, but according to Pinterest, searches for marble wallpaper have increased by 303%! Marbleous!
