The new year is the perfect opportunity for you inject some new life into your bathroom so we’ve put together some bathroom inspiration to help get you started. We’ve found some of the best new looks and designs for your space – from modern little details to going all out on a brand-new bathtub. These are the latest bathroom fittings and designs that we expect will dominate 2019.
Black bathrooms
Black bathroom designs have been very desirable during 2018 and this is no different in 2019. The key to including black into your bathroom design is to use it intelligently. You may not want an all-black bathroom and in that case, if black is used sparingly it can be used to section off and highlight certain areas of the room.

Shades of pink
After the resurgence of vintage bathroom trends, pink is a colour that will also continue to demand the spotlight throughout 2019 as it did in 2018. Pink is one of the most popular colour options in both modern and traditional bathrooms with very good reason. When choosing a colour scheme, a pop of colour makes a space feel vibrant and lively. Pink exudes a bright and fun ambience that is certain to brighten your mood. There are many shades of pink that can be selected from muted blush pinks (view the Moods Amyris Toilet and Basin Suite) to bold bubblegum pink too.
Another notable trend showcasing pink is rose gold. Rose gold is less common in bathrooms when compared to fixtures with silver chrome finishes making it all the more unique and appealing. A good example of a beautifully designed rose gold fixture would be the Heritage Hemsby Limited Edition Floor Standing Bath Shower Mixer.
Technology
Modern day bathrooms are transforming into a spa within our own homes. Changes in technologies make the experience more relaxing and convenient than ever before. The Grohe Sensia Shower Toilet sets the standard for personal care and cleaning as it is equipped with a variety of outstanding functions. These functions include two self-cleaning spray options that can be adjusted in terms of temperature and position with ease.
Another more common trend is the built-in blue tooth speaker system. Now you can easily jam out or wind down with the sounds of your shower. And it isn’t only showers that have Bluetooth connectivity, the Beatz Bluetooth LED Mirror integrated speaker will allow you play all of your favourite songs whenever you like.
Touch screen mirrors, music, and increased TV installments are just a few other trends we have seen grow during 2018. If you’re impressed by the technology we have now, we believe that there is even more to look forward to this year.
Statement mirrors
Mirrors are both an essential and a statement piece in modern bathroom design. The styles of mirrors available seem to be never ending. Unique shapes and features are gaining more attention. Mirrors, just like the rest of the bathroom are becoming smarter. Mirrors can have anti-fog technologies, smart touch abilities, shaving sockets, and more! With shaped frame options taking over, you have the ability to get as creative as possible when it comes to picking out the exact style.
And we have not forgotten about the most important detail of bathroom mirrors- lighting. It’s all about the lighting. While we all love the idea of fun shapes and gadgets, functionality is at the top of our list. This is why we are seeing contemporary back lit mirrors as well a front light increasing in popularity. Back lit mirrors are a subtler option that will allow for optimal lighting. Mosca LED mirror this mirror is sleek, modern, and a stylish addition to any bathroom. It is equipped with features such as an integrated shaving socket and built in demister pad which helps resolve steam clouding up your mirror.
Victorian design
Victorian bathrooms have never really gone out of style but as we head into 2019, we expect to see many more Victorian inspired bathrooms. At the heart of many traditional bathrooms is a freestanding bath tub. Whilst there are several variations of freestanding baths, one of the most popular is the slipper bath, which is has one higher end for the ultimate relaxing experience.
The taps will usually be situated at the lower end of the bath, allowing you to bath with space to stretch out and unwind. Traditional models often come with a classic claw-foot design whereas modern versions tend to come with ball feet. The Heritage Holywell Gold Freestanding Slipper bath balances traditional design with a contemporary twist. It has a distinctive gold finish that resembles gold leaf that is certain to draw attention.
Art in the bathroom
Art work shouldn’t just be placed in a bedroom or living room. Art can also be added to bathrooms (given that they are framed correctly) and can liven up an entire design scheme. At Bathshack, we love the upcoming trend of art being used in bathrooms. That is why we have a collection of art available to purchase in our showrooms. Our art selection has been curated to accommodate a variety of style preferences.
As you can see, you don’t have to completely redo your bathroom in order to follow the latest trends. Simply switching up a mirror, adding some new gadgets, or playing with your colour palette can turn your bathroom into a stylish, comfortable haven. We hope to have gotten your creative thoughts flowing so that you can replicate the trends that have caught your attention.
