As winter approaches UK Bathrooms, the UK’s leading online retailer of premium branded bathrooms, takes a look at the exciting bathroom trends we can look forward to in 2022.
Let’s Go Green
Green will be seen in our 2022 bathrooms. From pastels to sage green, emerald green to forest green – it’s a great colour to ensure your space looks fresh and encourages your positive wellbeing. Try green tiling to your walls and floor, or a bold wallpaper with green hues to bring your bathroom completely up to date.
Farrow and Ball recently unveiled their top 5 colours for 2022 – Breakfast Room Green, Babouche, School House White, Stone Blue and Incarnadine being named. These wonderful hues offer a great mix of form, function and comfort and evoke the warmth of living. Breakfast Room Green is most definitely the cheeriest of all the F & B greens to date. Use on all 4 walls in your bathroom to make the space look bigger.
Biophilia
Says Graeme Borchard, MD of UK Bathrooms ‘I’ve been an avid fan of biophilia for some time now and I’m pleased to say that the trend for biophilic bathrooms is going to continue in 2022. Our bathrooms are busy places, we start and end each day in the room but whilst busy there is also a growing need for our bathroom to be a safe haven, a place to relax and reduce our stress levels.”
A biophilic bathroom uses plants to introduce nature, not only do they help to de-stress they also help to purify the air. Continues Graeme “It’s not all about plants though, look to introduce natural materials into your new bathroom design, wood, stone, cork and bamboo can all be used on floors and furniture. Or just add wooden accessories to add a pure, simple and natural aesthetic.”
Wooden Floor Tiles
Beautiful natural wooden floors as a finish for the bathroom is definitely a growing trend. Wood effect tiles are practical yet bring the instant warmth and coziness of a wooden floor.
Black Bathroom
We’ve seen a huge trend for black in our bathrooms over the last few years and it will dominate in 2022. Use black furniture or accessories or even make a real statement with a freestanding black bath. Add black tiles to your shower wall to create a stunning contrast.
Leading traditional bathroom brands such as Burlington and Imperial have recently launched their black bathroom collections which includes bathroom basins, wc’s and furniture. These pair exceptionally well with gold finished brassware and accessories – if you’re aiming for an opulent, luxurious style.
Overall
In 2022 we will definitely see a trend for earthy natural colours and finishes, stick to one hue and create that nature-inspired zone where you and your loved ones can relax and de-stress.
