Watermark Designs Identifies Core Bathroom Trends of 2024.

Watermark Designs has been redefining bathroom design for more than 50 years. With residential design continually progressing, Watermark Designs identifies the core bathroom trends of 2024. 

Vanity Fair

Be it a powder room, guest bath or primary suite, the vanity has always been the focal point of the bathroom. As the most used feature in the washroom, vanities serve as a reflection of the growing importance of establishing the bathroom as a sanctuary and space of wellness. Adding lavish design elements such as statement fixtures or faucets to the vanity instantly draws the eye in and elevates the aesthetics of the entire room.

Grounding Connection 

As the biophilic movement continues to thrive, homeowners and designers are increasingly seeking ways to invite nature indoors. A subtle shift in how organic influences are incorporated in bathroom design has emerged this year, with most opting for gradual details, in contrast to the overuse of natural elements that has prevailed in past years. Notes of verdant hues, natural reliefs and geological accessories set the foundation for a serene atmosphere, while offering a connection to nature.

Variegated Metal 

Opulent metallics and radiant polishes are summoning an enigmatic sense of enchantment in bathrooms. Standard black, gold and nickel finishes have given way to a new class of variegated fixtures. Alternative metal finishes such as Gun Metal, Oil Rubbed Bronze, Satin Gold, and Vintage Copper introduce a nuanced tonal range to bath handles, faucets, shower heads and plumbing components, leading to a saturated chromatic range for infinite design possibilities.

Dual Relaxation

 The evolution of the bathroom is a declaration to the ever-changing needs and wants of homeowners. In this era of bathroom design, luxury and comfort are the prevailing themes. The most effective way to achieve these concepts is through the incorporation of lifestyle-enhancing features. Double shower heads, ceiling-mounted rain shower heads, hand showers and body sprays establish a relaxing environment that brings the spa experience into residential bathrooms.

In Free Form

Curved accents and voluminous silhouettes are back in vogue with the resurgence of mid-century modern decor. One way to seamlessly drape bathrooms in rounded geometries is with cylindrical fixtures. Bath and sink fittings with flowing spouts and contoured necks add a layer of dimension, creating the illusion of increased space.
