7 Ideas for Modern Style Bathrooms: the Year 2020
Modern Style Bathrooms
If you’re one of the people who like to keep track of what’s new in the field of bathroom design, you’ve come to the right place. Trends come and go and it isn’t always easy to keep up with them, but every once in a while a nice trend comes up and it’s impossible to ignore it. We’ve put together a list of contemporary trends for modern bathrooms you’re going to love.
Living plants
Because bathrooms are places with a lot of moisture and the air is warm, they’re perfect for different kinds of plants. This is especially important if you live in drier climates, and you will be able to grow different exotic plants if you keep them in your bathroom. Orchids are gentle but will thrive in your bathroom, as will spider plants and grape ivy. Philodendron also likes ‘bathroom conditions’ but it’s toxic to children and pets, so you might want to keep it on high shelves just in case.
Declutter it all
The most important thing about any room in your home is to make it nice, clean and tidy. Decor plays a great role here, but also you have to get rid of all the
Open shelves
Speaking of shelves, people usually choose different cabinets for their bathrooms, but this year it’s all about open shelves instead. Not only is this a great solution for people who have small bathrooms, but it can also make the room look more elegant. This will allow you to display all of your wonderful towels and you’ll be able to keep your makeup and hair brushes in little decorative boxes and cans like small works of art.
Hidden tanks
Hidden-tank toilets have many benefits and people are falling in love with them for several reasons. This is particularly important if your bathroom is small – the tank will not ‘steal’ any of the valuable space you have and the room will look more spacious and open. Hidden-tank toilets also come in low-flow models that help you save not only space but water too. They are a smart choice and installing them will increase the value of your home if you ever decide to sell it.

Bidet seats
Bidets are an antique invention that’s been making a comeback recently. They are convenient and versatile, and they help you save money and protect the planet. If you use bidets, you don’t have to spend money on toilet paper, and you’ll be saving a lot of trees in the process. For those who struggle with lack of space in bathrooms, there are so-called smart toilets that can be installed on to your existing toilet. This way, you will be able to use your toilet as a bidet and won’t have to think about adding additional plumbing or pipes.
Natural elements
Bringing nature in is the latest craze and we’re in love with it! Think about getting a bathroom mat made of real moss – every time you step out of the shower onto the mat, you’ll be watering the moss and it will thrive. If you don’t like the idea of standing on a moss mat, you can try getting your hands on a mat made of real pebbles instead. The best thing is that you can actually make this mat yourself – all you need is a non-slip rubber, plenty of pebbles, and a hot glue gun. You will feel like you’re standing on a beach and it will look great on your floor too.
Rustic chic
If you’re a fan of antique pieces and vintage designs, feel free to step into the Victorian era and draw inspiration from there. Paint a wall with dark paint, hang a mirror in an intricately decorated frame, and add a shapely freestanding tub that has ball-and-claw feet to complete the look. If you have enough money, you could try changing your fixtures and install new ones made of brass because its soft color will add warmth to the room. You could also try replacing handles on your cabinets and use luxurious ones that look like they’re made of crystals and faux jewels.
Interesting curtains
We often don’t have a chance to experiment with different designs in our bathrooms because they’re supposed to be convenient and practical. This is where shower curtains step in – they are necessary for a bathroom and lately you can find incredible designs that will completely transform your bathroom into an oasis of fun. Simple white curtain with what looks like bloody handprints, curtains with real-size lions and tigers, cute superhero kitties, or a curtain that depicts a peaceful corner of the woods will look great in any bathroom.
Just like all the other rooms in a house, bathrooms happen to be sensitive when it comes to design trends, and it’s good to update your bathrooms from time to time and keep up with current trends. Fortunately, the novelties in this area come slowly and you have to consider them carefully before you decide to change something because the investments in bathroom redecoration can be quite substantial.
