Bathroom Trends for 2023

It’s a new year and that means there are exciting innovations for bathroom decor. Whether you’re looking to completely remodel your bathroom or just give it a quick new year’s update, we’ve put together some of this year’s top trends that can breathe new life into your bathroom’s design.

Smart Bathrooms
Yes, your bathroom should be a retreat from the world, but there are times when you want your technology too. For those times, there’s smart tech specifically designed for the bathroom. Smart mirrors which can feature functionality like a built-in TV and syncing capabilities with Alexa and Google Home Assistant – now you can check your email while you brush your teeth, an option most of us didn’t know we needed. Even the less high-tech mirrors feature dimmable LED lights, Bluetooth speakers and anti-fog functionality.

Easy Cleaning
After 2020, most of us started taking cleanliness much more seriously. Designers and manufacturers searched for ways to make the bathroom safer and more germ-free. Today there are finishes available for toilets and other surfaces that virtually eliminate germs in a matter of hours. Sure you’ll still want to do your usual cleaning, however this technology can give the peace of mind that in between cleanings your family will be protected.

Water-Proof Flooring
Say goodbye to messy bathroom floors and hello to a whole new world of clean. Bathrooms are increasingly becoming one large shower space, with a completely waterproof floor. Not only can this make bath time more fun, but cleaning will be even easier with floors that can quickly be hosed down. Add in a wall mounted vanity and toilet and you’ll find cleaning becomes no-hassle.

Centerpiece Soakers
A freestanding tub has always been a striking element for a bathroom, and that’s still the case in 2023. Now, soaker tubs, with high sides for deeper submersion, are becoming even more popular. This year we’ll be seeing more styles and varieties as the soaker evolves from a plain white to an array of colors and materials. The good news for those that like their bubbles over calm waters – there’s plenty of whirlpool options with a modern, updated profile and even heated soaking tubs.

Self-Care Sauna
A sauna in the bathroom? Yes, it’s actually possible and is becoming a popular addition. While sitting on cedar planks in a hot quiet space can sound super indulgent, it’s more than just a serenity space. The warmth of a sauna can be therapeutic and help support healthy cardiovascular and immune systems as well as improving skin health and stress management.

Let the Sun Shine In
Natural light is an instant mood lifter; it’s no wonder designers are looking for ways to add more sunlight into bathroom spaces. For bathrooms on the top floor, adding a large skylight is a breathtaking addition. Just think of how peaceful and serene it can be to soak in the clouds and sky or stars and moonlight while soaking or showering. It’s an easy upgrade that doesn’t disturb any of your current bathroom’s layout.

Matching Toilets
Yes, you heard that right. This improvement has been hotly debated online, but it’s becoming more common. You’ll need the space to be able to make each water closet private, but it can be a much easier addition than attempting to add a full extra half bath.

Vintage Warmth
For many years cool, sleek modern looks prevailed in the bathroom, but things are warming up. Wood is becoming the material of choice for bathrooms. Minimalism is being traded in for built-in cabinetry, decorative trim and retro touches. That pink bathroom that needed to be gutted a few years ago? Now designers are embracing even the 50s bathroom aesthetic and deep greens, sweet pastels and royals blues are finding their way back into the bathroom space.

If you’re looking to add in an upgrade to your bathroom, the first step is to find a licensed and insured contractor who specializes in the type of bathroom remodel you are looking for. While reviews and online recommendations can be helpful, you’ll also want to see images of past completed work. Having a professional who listens to your ideas and offers suggestions based on your preferences is key to a successful project.
