The year is quickly coming to an end and this means it’s time to embrace what’s new and good.

We all see the new year as a fresh start, but a fresh start requires making some changes.  Whether they’re big or small, changes can bring a fresh new feel to your home.

It’s important to review your past designs and reflect on them, to make way for new ones.

Renovating your house to feel brand-new is the mission and the bathroom is a great place to start:

 1. Small space, big impact

Not every bathroom needs to be turned into an extravagant and lush oasis.

You can create an air of luxury with a relatively small space as long as you know how to organize it.

If you have a downstairs bathroom, you can test your chops by turning it into an attractive and compact powder room. Use it as a canvas to paint an interesting and impactful bathroom design.

High-contrast and dark colors are all the rage nowadays. Create a dark, club-like atmosphere in a compact bathroom setting. Coat it with black tiles from floor to ceiling to give it a dark contemporary vibe.

This also makes it much easier to clean, especially with stains being a lot harder to notice.

 2. Bathroom lighting musts

Lighting is especially important for your bathroom.

With the right choice, you can get your bathroom lights to be both aesthetically pleasing and practical. 2020 is the year of linear lighting systems. 

If you want to remodel your entire bathroom, go for a mirror with integrated lighting. Another good idea would be to install light strips in the corners of your bathroom. This will give you a lovely, dimmed atmosphere you’ll certainly enjoy. 

3. Extension of bathroom floors

If your bathroom is small in size, there is a way to make it feel a lot bigger.

Match the design of your tiles with the front wall, and you’ll instantly see the difference. This way, you won’t have to remove certain elements from the bathroom to make it look bigger.

Dark vinyl floor tiles that match the bathroom wall are an exquisite choice. 

4. Mirror, mirror on the wall

Say goodbye to the old-fashioned rectangular bathroom mirrors because 2020 is a year of dynamic mirror shapes and sizes.

We can all agree that traditional mirrors are very practical, but they’re also very dull. Find a suitable mirror to fit the bathroom design. 

You can change the whole bathroom mood just by replacing an old mirror with a modern one. Nowadays, a large selection of mirror designs is available to you, from asymmetrical to bold geometrical shapes.

You can upgrade your search and opt for fogless, full-length or concave mirrors. 

5. Back to nature

Decorating your living room with plants is a common way of adding a touch of freshness to your home. People are starting to improve on this idea by placing flower pots into their bathrooms.

A nature-loving design will change the aesthetics completely. Whether you’ll place a few flowerpots on your windowsill, or nurture a complex indoor garden, it’s up to you.  

Either way, natural touches are certainly trending in 2020. Make sure to research what plants are suitable for indoor gardens before purchasing them.

Do not forget that South Africa has several different climate zones, and some plants may not be suitable for specific areas, even when they’re indoors.

6. Eastern aesthetics

If you want to make your bathroom the ideal place for relaxation, you should consider adding spa-inspired elements.

Scented candles are a great touch that helps add an air of sophistication. Your bathroom will smell good, and you’ll be able to take relaxation after work to a higher level. 

Place a mixture of bath salts on one of the shelves and add decoration made of natural materials. Wooden holder for shower gels or perfumes is a next year trend. Match the colour of towels with the colours of other bathroom elements and design.

Place a small decorative rug next to the bathtub, and voila, your perfect bathroom is ready for use. 

7. The centre of attention

Freestanding baths will never go out of style. They’re practical and bathing in them provides you with a spa-like experience. Many new homes are incorporating them in their bathroom designs. 

It’s crucial that you find a bathtub that will fit perfectly into your bathroom. Luckily, finding attractive freestanding baths in Sydney isn’t too difficult. With the potential to choose between different creative designs that vary in colour, shape, and size, you will quickly be able to find one that suits you.

Modern options tend to favour curvy shapes that will fit well into the surrounding clear-cut design.

Conclusion

2020 is a year of great changes in design and aesthetics.

Whether you want to keep it minimalistic or prefer a luxurious bathroom, you’ll certainly be able to find something that matches your taste.

You don’t have to invest a lot of money in renovating your bathroom. Start by making small changes, and you’ll be pretty quickly satisfied with the results.
