Polished nickel and chrome reigned for decades but now unlacquered brass is having a moment in the sun. This finish develops a nice patina over time, which adds to the richness of this warm metal.

We called out the penny-round tile in our January 2017 trends issue because it’s a look with legs. penny tiles have been a design staple for 100 years, but tiling the walls and floor for a cohesive look makes them feel fresh all over again.

The popularity of iron window frames and doors has naturally spilled over into the bathroom. The graphic contrast of the iron pops against pale marble. In this Calgary bathroom, a huge metal-framed shower mimics the dark window casements and has incredible architectural presence.

Artful floors are having a major moment in just about any room in the house, but in the bathroom high-impact tiles are practical, and a fun way to inject high-octane (waterproof) pattern.

Sometimes it’s the little things that have major impact. Whether they are tiled or backed by a contrasting stone (in this example Carrara marble), shower niches are getting a custom treatment so they stand out, in a good way.

The richness of wood grain is exactly the thing to warm up a bathroom. This floating vanity’s continuous grain is uninterrupted by panelling, or hardware — just simple finger pulls — for a luxury effect that highlights the beauty of this natural material.

Clean-lined, sculptural freestanding tubs in varying shapes offer a more modern look than drop-in tubs. once considered a luxury splurge, they have become more accessible and their simplicity brings a spa-like serenity to bathrooms.

Book-matching (the practice of adjoining stone surfaces so they mirror each other, giving the impression of an opened book) gives the shower enclosure’s honed marble slabs a pleasing symmetry and fluid look, and makes the space look more expansive.

Designer: Colette Van den ThillartTenk på denne trenden som en forlengelse av garderoben. Å skaffe hovedbadet med et sofistikert tapet (i dette tilfellet, en håndmalt Gracie-vegg som vanligvis sees i mer formelle rom) gjør et bad til et overbærende prep-sted. Hvis du er nølende med tapet på badet, kan du styre unna stoffbasert tapet, som gressklut, hold rommet godt ventilert og bruk et godt lim (for eksempel Roman’s Pro-880).

En ny rase av betongfliser fra Marokko dukker vanligvis opp på gulv, men de er inspirerende designere til å gå litt dristigere. I dette tilfellet hadde H&H Senior Design Editor Sally Armstrong øye med Diamond-mønsteret i Ikat-stil og kunne ikke vente med å prøve det på sitt eget hovedbad, og bemerket at det ikke er for trendy til å tåle tidens prøve.
