The bathroom is one of the most frequently used rooms in the house, so you want it to be functional and aesthetically pleasing. If you’re considering a bathroom remodel or an upgrade of the residential plumbing fixtures, think about the following hot trends for 2019. 

Top Bathroom Remodeling Trends of the Year

1. Upgraded Residential Plumbing Fixtures

Getting new fixtures can completely change the look of the room. Replace those ‘80s faucets with modern designs or opt for an elegant and efficient low-flow toilet. Residential plumbing now incorporates options that were previously only available to hotels and other commercial enterprises. Heated toilet seats, automatic sinks, and smart showers that have programmable time and temperature settings are chic examples of “smart” upgrades.

2. Industrial Vanities

The industrial look is trending, which means rustic wood, metal, and tile are materials to feature in a bathroom remodel. A sink and vanity combination is the perfect way to showcase this look. Visible plumbing, antique shapes and finishes, and dark brass or metal faucets give the decor an edgy and rustic look while also remaining completely modern.

3. Bold Accent Colors

Neutral-toned paint and flooring are brought to life with a pop of vibrant accent color. Consider a blue or yellow freestanding bathtub, orange towels, or a green cabinet. Keep it to a maximum of two colors with a grey or off-white background. A central tile design can provide a pop of color, as well.

4. Brass & Gold

These metals are making a comeback for the sink, shower, and other fixtures, such as towel bars and lighting. Both lend a warm, opulent feeling to the decor and can be used with many different styles, from antique to classic. Brass and gold finishes don’t show water spots as easily as chrome or nickel, giving a cleaner feel.

5. Walk-In Showers & Spa Tubs

Spacious and luxurious walk-in showers and free-standing tubs in modern shapes make any bathroom remodel a showstopper. Large showers with benches and multiple faucet levels have the benefit of accessibility for those who need assistance or even for washing the family dog. Big tubs bring the spa right into your bathroom.
