One of the biggest bathroom trends at the moment are shapely tubs.  Big, curvy tubs are redefining the way bathrooms are made all over the world.  Rectangles are becoming a thing of the past as manufacturers are catching on.  Coming in many different colors and designs, the point of the tub is that it’s big, spacious and attractive to look at.  Everyone wants one these days, and they can really make a bathroom seem bigger than it actually is.

3. Nickels Not Dimes

Okay, so really not talking about money here.  One of the top trends for bathroom renovators these days is the use of nickel fixtures.  This is because Nickel is both attractive to look at and durable.

4. Mount It Up

Faucets that are mounted on the sink or wall are in.  This offers consumers a clean design.  The plumbing for this style is also a lot less problematic, and it saves floor space.  You can combine the mounted faucet with an antique sink bowl and PRESTO, you have a cool bathroom.  Seriously, this is one of most popular remodeling trends.

5. Shimmer

Make it shimmer, make it shine.  Designers have begun incorporating decorative glass into the design of the bathroom.  This glass comes and many different colors and can used to cover a portion of your wall or the entire thing.  This will literally make your bathroom sparkle.

6. Mirror, Mirror On The Wall

Another popular trend is the use of pharmacy cabinets for storage.  This is because they are not only stylish, but allow a lot of storage room.  They also come in many different sizes, allowing you to find a size that works and fits in with the design of your bathroom.

8. Forget The Frame

Frameless glass showers add an elegant beauty to the décor of the bathroom.  At the same time, they make the bath seem larger than it actually is.  The best thing about the lack of frame is that it allows the shower to go with any possible décor you come up with.  The shower never again will stick out like a sore thumb.

9. Classic Is Classy

Classic subway styles are making a comeback.  Shaped like bricks, they are beginning to be seen in bathroom projects everywhere.  Typically designers like to use black and white tiles to give the room a clean and fresh look, but plain white can be used as well allowing for a more elegant feel.
