Bathroom Trends For 2022 – What to Watch Out For

>As the Autumn months draw in and look to 2022, we take a peek at the exciting bathroom trends emerging in the new year and what you should look out for. Japandi Bathrooms Trend There’s a new trend on its way, Japandi – and it’s got some serious staying power. Japandi is an interior hybrid that blends Japanese and Scandinavian styles.Photo Credit: @Homesandgardens.com Influenced by the ancient Japanese idea of wasbi-sabi, an aesthetic that appreciates beauty is ‘imperfect, impermanent and incomplete’, Japandi also inherits the comfort and cosiness of Nordic interior design. Together, forming a gorgeous, simplistic bathroom interior style we can’t get enough of. This new interior fusion creates the perfect combination of form and function, focusing on neutral hues, bright spaces, and plenty of texture. To achieve the most perfect Japandi space we recommend 5 features:Earthy HuesLavish TexturesLow Key lightingMinimal AccessoriesPlenty of Natural Elements 50 Shades of Green Photo Credit: @@seasonsincolour.com Expect to see a lot more of green hues in 2022. Pastels, tinted shades, emerald, green, sage greens and more. Green is a brilliant way to refresh a bathroom without overpowering, additionally it’s really nice hue to introduce that can encourage positive wellbeing. Bringing you back to nature with pops of colour. We love the versatility of this colour, a wonderful fit for modern and traditional bathrooms alike. So, whether you’re looking to totally revamp, a subway tile splash back or adding a new lick of paint, here’s some inspiration that will make you love every shade of green. Three of our go-to shades we recommend for your 2022 bathroomEmerald Green Sage Green Breakfast Room Green How To Incorporate Green Into Your Bathroom In 2022 Green Tiles Photo Credit: @dykeanddean.com Photo Credit: @elledecoration.co.ukGreen Bathroom WallsPhoto Credit: @homedeco.nl Introduce Terracotta to Your BathroomPhoto Credit: @Tileflair Ltd Terracotta is one of the up-and-coming shades for bathrooms in 2022. The earthy hues are coming through, highlighting our newfound love for positive wellbeing interiors. Since the 2020 pandemic, there has been a huge increase of people remote working and for many, this will be a permanent arrangement. Meaning, now more than ever, our homes should be light, calming, and a positive place for us to exist. Whichever way you choose to introduce terracotta, from wall paint to tile options to towels or bathmats, feel free to discover deep burnt orange hues to soft apricot shades until you find your ideal terracotta shade. When introducing terracotta into your 2022 bathroom think about how you want your bathroom to feel. You can create a luxury Spanish villa vibe, traditional Moroccan theme, or rustic rural elements with this beautiful colour.Photo Credit: @idsico.caPhoto Credit: @interiortwin.com Soho London BathroomsPhoto Credit: @studioham.co.uk Another big trend to watch out for as we head towards 2022 is SOHO London designs. The best way to describe this beautiful interior is cosy luxury. If that doesn’t quite sum it up, think artsy, bohemian, urban elegance with an edgy flair – sounds divine, we know! So, what would a SOHO bathroom look like? To achieve the soho look in your bathroom you need to throw out any ideas of the clean, clinical look when shopping for tiles, paint, or wall design. Think patterned prints that will add extra style to your bathroom space. From geometric to striped or even Turkish cement tiles for a truly bespoke look. Soho décor adopts a masculine colour palette with a focus on rich tones. There’s no place for minimalism here. The more dramatic, the better. You want your decorative elements to be emotive, passionate with an element of comfort. If you’re still unsure, we have some Soho London Bathroom design inspiration to die for.Photo Credit: @1stdibs.com What Paint Colours Are in for 2022? Over the last few months, we have seen the big paint brands announce their ‘colour of the year’ for 2022 and we couldn’t be more excited about these fresh concepts. Kick starting with the wonderful Farrow & Ball… Ok, get ready because this is going to be a mouthful, Babouche, School House White, Breakfast Room Green, Stone Blue and Incarnadine have been named as the hues that will define 2022. The overall feel of these shades is to offer comfort and simplicity with a mix of folk and craftsmanship. Joa Studholme, Farrow & Ball’s colour curator, predicts that ‘simple and familiar colours in clever combinations will be experience a revival in the home in 2022.’ Let’s break down each colour for some clarity: Babouche Babouche is a hue designed to bring joy to your interior, a soft yellow shade that offers a simple yet bold aesthetic.Photo Credit: @planete-deco.fr School House White A Silky white without the cool undertone to ensure it still holds a warm feel to your bathroom.Photo Credit: @stylebyemilyhenderson.com Breakfast Room Green Breakfast Room Green offers a lively and comforting feel.

Japandi Bathroom Ideas and Inspiration

>In this article, we talk about the latest trend to hit the world of bathroom interiors and all the Japandi bathroom ideas and inspiration you’ll ever need. If you’re new to Japandi interiors, then get ready, because after reading this article you will be fully converted to Japan’s and Scandi’s new love child. *Disclaimer* We can not be held responsible for the overwhelming feeling of needing to re-decorate. Photo credit: @japandi.interior What is Japandi? Japandi is an interior hybrid that blends Japanese and Scandinavian styles. Influenced by the ancient Japanese idea of Wasbi-sabi, an aesthetic that appreciates beauty is ‘imperfect, impermanent and incomplete’. Japandi also inherits the comfort and cosiness of ‘Hygge’ from Danish culture. Together, forming a gorgeous yet minimal bathroom interior style we can’t get enough of, with an emphasis on finding beauty in simplicity.Photo credit: @liliinwonderland.fr Japandi Wasbi-sabi aesthetic Photo credit: @www-momooze-com.cdn. Scandinavian Hygge Bathroom How Do I Create a Japandi Inspired Bathrooms? In order to create this new interior fusion, there are some key elements you need to consider. Form and function are a must when designing your new Japandi space. To achieve a Japandi bathroom you need these six key elements:Lavish texturesLow key lightingMinimal accessoriesNatural material particularly rustic elementsEarthy colour paletteClean and clear design Now we know what ingredients we need to create the most perfect Japandi space, let’s take a look at the different concepts for your bathroom, cloakroom or en-suite. Dark Japandi Bathroom In this Japandi inspired bathroom, they have used their space expertly. Using dark textured walls and floor to create a natural stone like base. Pair your dark walls with a touch of rusticity to achieve a stark contrast, with a parting panel wall. This will nicely spilt the room whilst maintaining a beautiful open space. Photo credit: @archilovers Opting for clean lines and minimal accessories is two of the many components that makes this a beautiful Japandi space. When it comes to creating a dark Japandi style, including dark wood /oak vanity units is a great way to introduce a variety of textures. Light and Minimal Japandi Bathroom Light and minimal allows you to layer textures whilst keeping the room super simple and airy. Use crisp white walls to keep things looking clean, just as a Danish designer would. Add interest to your space with natural textures, and floating furniture. Remember less is ALWAYS more. Photo credit: @Grohe The key here is to avoid over cluttering with too many accessories, keep everything as minimal as possible. Your space should be as light as possible, try your best to keep as much natural light as possible. If this isn’t a do-able, opt for sleek lighting. Something that will keep your bathroom looking simple and soft, if you really want to emphasis the Japanese aesthetic, opt for symmetrical lights on either side of your mirror. Monochrome Japandi Bathroom Suite Not a fan of colour, no matter how subtle? Don’t worry, you can always go for a monochrome Japandi space. One of the staple features of Japandi design is contrast; therefore, choosing this yin and yang colour scheme will maintain the perfect balance. Photo credit: @dotandpop If you’re lacking colour, remember plants are your friend and should be used in large quantities to add biophilic touches. Remember, texture is everything! – mix marble with fluted tiles, matt walls with textured floors. Go the extra monochrome mile with black brassware instead of chrome. Bright and Open Japandi En-suite Keep things calm and open with a neutral colours, for a calming tranquil space. Windows are a brilliant way to allow natural light to flow – so the bigger the better! When it comes to your bathroom layout think minimal and open. This particularly applies to the shower. Try to avoid enclosures and welcome walk-in showers or any frameless structure. This will create the illusion of more space and avoid the feeling of being ‘caged in’. Photo credit: @houselovelife Bright and open Japandi spaces are all about exposure. Exposing as much light as you can whether that’s natural light or artificial is a great way to boost mood and set the scene for a calm atmosphere. Again, use rustic elements to add warmth and a natural touch. Paneling and wooden shelves work well for the basin area and don’t forget about keeping your furniture soft and round, for true Japanese style. We recommend a countertop basin to finish off the look. Colourful Japandi Bathroom One for the colour lovers – if you need that pop of vibrance, feel free to introduce soft soothing pastels. To achieve Japanese minimalism, keep furniture minimal, accents black and add your colour through paint, fluted tiles or on your minimal accessories. If that isn’t enough, introduce colour through your ceramics. Soft pinks, blues and greens look fabulous in countertops basins or vanity units. Photo credit: @archdaily Industrial Japandi Use a round freestanding bathtub as your focal point, pair with contrasting black taps in a beautiful matt black for an extra luxury touch. Photo credit: @nothernstyling Incorporate the industrial vibes through raw and unkept walls. Limewash paint is a great way to achieve an imperfect look, ideal for an industrial feel. Accompanied by pendant lighting and a floor standing ladder heated towel rail, that lets out warmth and enriches the style of your bathroom. And that’s a wrap, we hope you enjoyed this Japanese and Scandinavian style guide and we have given you enough Japandi bathroom ideas and inspiration to turn you into an Japandi interior expert.

A DIY Bathroom Makeover Versus a Professional Remodeling Contractor

According to Remodeling Magazine, the average American household’s average remodeling project costs is over six thousand dollars. As such, it seems that any potential homeowner would be wise to invest in improving their homes before they spend all the money required for a complete remodeling job. According to the magazine, a full renovation of a typical bathroom is worth an estimated eight hundred thousand dollars. In other words, a simple remodeling job can turn an outdated bathroom into a valuable piece of real estate. However, the magazine notes that this investment will almost certainly increase the sale value of your property by an average of fourteen thousand dollars. But in the great outdoors, where homes are exposed to all kinds of weather, a full remodeling job may not always translate into big bucks. And where there is less money to spend, there is also less risk. While demolition and extensive remodeling require more materials and a higher initial cost, these options often yield better results and lower costs. For instance, if a homeowner opts for simple caulk and drywall repairs to replace shower and bathtub walls, a bathroom fixtures kit may be the way to go. In fact, most do-it-yourself (DIY) bathroom projects are rather inexpensive. A simple plumbing repair, for example, can cost as little as ten dollars. However, such do-it-yourself projects require a bit more time and effort. If a homeowner does not feel confident about tackling a bathroom remodel on his own, a do-it-yourself handyman can sometimes handle the work in a fraction of the time and save both time and money. This is especially true if the bathroom fixtures and accessories are simple, such as a toilet that has a dual or triple pull-cord release. Another option for modest remodeling is a simple paint job. Although a tile tub is considered a “women’s bathroom remodeling” item, men can also enjoy this kind of makeover. Just like with a tile tub, a simple paint job will add instant sex appeal to a bathroom. This option is less costly than other bathroom remodeling projects. However, it requires the same amount of skill as other more complicated jobs, such as a bathroom remodeling job that involves tearing out and replacing flooring or installing a new shower stall. If this does not sound like a big deal to you, a do-it-yourself project may be just what you need. Most homeowners know how to remove wallpaper, have knowledge of how to install cabinetry and use tools like a jigsaw. Yet a bathroom remodeling process is much different than a typical paint job or wallpaper installation. Bathroom remodeling projects can be complex because the bathroom is used by many people, often multiple persons at a time. A bathroom remodeling process may include replacing fixtures, changing showerheads, installing new flooring, adding new toilets, installing a new tub or replacement showerhead, installing new countertops, new flooring, installing new tile flooring, adding new mirrors, etc. Thus, a bathroom remodeling process can be very time-consuming. A DIY bathroom makeover, on the other hand, would only take a few hours and may include several of the previously mentioned tasks. For instance, replacing a toilet could be done using a plumbing kit, but doing a tile job or installing cabinetry in the bathroom could require a plumber. Replacing a toilet and all the fixtures in the bathroom may be done using only a hardware store screwdriver set while doing a tile job or installing a new tub and showerhead using a tile kit. Furthermore, a bathroom remodeling project can include demolition of an existing bathroom vanity, installation of a new vanity, installation of new plumbing and new tub and shower head, or installation of new flooring, etc. In addition, demolition may also be required in order to bring a bathroom to a current state of disarray. For instance, if a vanity cabinet fell down, a contractor may need to tear it down, remove the contents and relocate them elsewhere in the house. In order to save money on demolition and plumbing expenses, most homeowners hire a contractor who is experienced in remodeling works. A qualified contractor will have a list of companies he deals with on a regular basis. When you contact such a contractor, he will discuss your current situation and see if he can free up some of your time to perform remodeling work. If you are interested in having some of your old, outdated fixtures replaced with newer ones, a contractor can suggest an array of choices. Moreover, if you want to have some electrical work done in your bathroom, an experienced contractor will have everything he needs in order to do the electrical work himself.
