If you are looking to renovate your home, either to list it or just for pleasure, consider these trending features for this year and the coming 2017 for bathrooms only.

It's all about relaxation and comfort.

Bathroom trends:

  • Tile patterns and geometric shapes - the use of contrasting colors, hexagonal shapes, look alike wood tiles
  • Anti fog mirrors
  • Custom vanities 
  • Open shelves
  • Floating vanities also called "wall hung"
  • Low flow toilets - not the old kind that was a problem with homeowners years ago, this is a new toilet called HET (High Efficiency Toilet) allowed to use 1.1 gallons of water
  • Color Gray is the new neutral
  • Free standing tubs
  • Multiple head showers
  • Zero entry showers (no curbing, water doesn't go everywhere it is pulled by gravity to the drain)
  • Spa like bathrooms - This may include piped music and strategically placed wall speakers, heated floors, spa towels, candles, massage oil , lots of glass tile, potted plants, wood accents (looked alike wood tiles are waterproof)

    You can look for pictures and design ideas in Pinterest.

Here are some pics taken from Pinterest.
