What Are Some Of The Biggest Bathroom Trends Right Now?

There’s something about a great bathroom that can make us feel truly at home. Maybe it’s that spa-at-home feeling that makes us feel like home can be just as luxurious, or that a nice, relaxing bath at the end of the day is the epitome of cozy. Whatever it is, bathroom trends can actually increase the value of your home by up to 5%. Here are some of the most popular bathroom features that you might want to consider adding to your own home.

Bathroom Trends

Popular Fixture: Bidet

While bidets have been quite commonplace in other parts of the world, most American homes do not usually have bathrooms that come with a bidet. According to Google, bidet searches reached 1.68 million, likely because they are eco-friendly as they help cut down on toilet paper and wipes use. Smart toilets have also been a popular search.

Also popular were vintage bathrooms, terrazzo style, spa-style, and minimalistic bathrooms. As fashion comes in cycles, vintage style pink tiles have come back and experienced a 19% increase in popularity.
