A well designed bathroom is a thing of beauty, but it’s made up of a mix of elements. Take inspiration from these updates if you are dreaming of tackling a reno next year, or just want a preview of the coming attractions, these bathroom trends will lead the way in 2021.
Dark Fixtures Dark fixtures really pop when contrasted by a snowy expanse of marble, as seen by these classic wall-mounted cross taps in this bathroom. The sharp matte fixtures act as punctuation points and accent the shower frame and windows.

In this artful bathroom, illumination is used behind the mirror to highlight the heavily-veined stone, and makes the floating vanity appear even more weightless and spectral.

The rationale for the glassed-in space was simple: it stays warm and cozy, so getting out of the tub is never jarring. This wet room also offers double showers, meaning there is never any waiting.

Soft pink Moroccan tiles seem to melt into the Scandi-style wood flooring.

This moody hue also makes brass fixtures and wood accents really pop. Source:House & Home December 2019 No Handles Consider this design move a truly clean slate. Skipping handles makes millwork look sleeker and svelte, putting the emphasis on the beautiful wood grain in this minimalist family home’s bathroom.

In this petite Parisian bathroom, the tub is painted black to match the glossy walls for a seamless effect (but one that’s also unabashedly romantic.)

Here, a cool metal faucet lives happily besides warm finishes on the sconces, hooks and mirror frame. Photographer:Alex Lukey Source:House & Home September 2020 Designer:Orsi Panos
