1. Black is Upstaging Gray

Gray may soon be passed over for the bolder, darker, classic style of black. Stay with stylish gray if you love it, but watch out for black. This is mostly in fixtures and hardware like mirrors, lighting and even vanities, predominately using soft matte finishes. 

2. Bathroom Designs that Think

Bathrooms are becoming smarter with high-tech upgrades. There are seat warmers, adjustable air dryers, automatic lid openers, and built-in deodorizers. While not exactly necessities, items like smart showers and built-in blue tooth speaker systems are getting traction. Voice activated features for lighting and temperature control, smart mirrors that talk back, and TV installments are also trending to give a luxurious spa experience.

3. Brass and Gold with a Vintage Twist

With farmhouse style being popular, brass and gold fixtures are to be found everywhere in the latest bathroom designs. The new era of gold and brass are warm toned, rich and luxurious in silk and matte finishes and not cool, sleek and modern like polished chrome.

Add them using lighting fixtures, mirrors, faucets and railing. These latest fixtures will not rust, show water marks or fingerprints like previous models, dramatically reducing cleaning and that tired look gold and brass can get.

4. Industrial Vanities and Sinks

Lovers of everything industrial will be pleased, industrial is trending high, so expect to see more of it in bathroom designs this year.
