Do you want to renovate your bathroom? Do you want it to look and feel more expensive? If your answer is "Yes" then you absolutely must take the pulse of the latest bathroom trends.
Most people spend the first and the last minutes of their days in the bathroom, and they want to feel comfortable in them. That means that the feel of a bathroom is important – no one likes spending their time in a room that feels outdated. That’s not a way to start your day unless you really like starting your day off on the wrong foot.
Last year chic bathrooms were all the rage, and that was obvious to anyone who used Pinterest. Marble counters and brass fixtures were incredibly popular, and 2018’s trends will indubitably be just as stunning.
It can be said that minimal and modern bathrooms are still popular, but prepare for something new in 2018. This year will bring tons of texture and personality into your bathroom.

Ceramics
Ceramic tiles are popular for floors and showers, and that comes as no surprise. After all, they are often praised for their durability and variety. No matter if you’re drawn to color or texture, this material can undoubtedly deliver on both fronts. New designs feature various geometric patterns, multi-colored or tone on tone.
There are many ceramic tiles that imitate high-end materials like wood, marble or concrete, and that’s why they’re the best choice, especially if you want to renovate your bathroom on a budget. Break the monotony by playing with patterns on the floors and walls, and see what works for you!

Concrete
If you’re not a fan of ceramics, don’t worry, concrete is set to be a huge trend in 2018 too! A concrete wall finishing will add that industrial feel to your bathroom when paired with organic materials such as wood.
The concrete finish complements a wide range of colors so don’t be afraid to go crazy with patterned tiles or wooden cabinets, especially if you want to give your bathroom that “New York loft” feel.

Marble
Marble was very popular back in 2016. It was also popular in 2017. And guess what? It will continue being popular in 2018! Decking your bathroom with marble can be notoriously expensive, but the end product is always worth it. If you’re going for that “Hilton Hotel bathroom” feel, using marble is a must.
Since marble is obviously a trend that simply won’t go away, you probably won’t have to renovate your bathroom in the future, so it can be said that spending money on it is actually a wise investment.

Showers with French doors
Shower curtains are finally becoming a thing of the past, and good riddance to them. They never looked good anyway. Steel-frame French shower doors are going to be a big thing in 2018 simply because they can bring the timeless look even into the smallest of bathrooms.
French doors are chic, functional, and most importantly, they provide plenty of natural light. The best thing about these doors is that they can fit almost any style. They can be styled to look rustic, or more modern or industrial, depending on the other materials you decided to use in your bathroom.
Bonus tip: Rustic and industrial elements, like exposed copper pipes, for example, are a great way to bring in texture, and they blend perfectly with French shower doors.
Minimalist cabinets
Since bold tile patterns and colorful wallpapers are going to be the next big thing in 2018, it’s of the utmost importance to keep things in balance, and you can do that with minimalist cabinet shapes. Simple, small, and clean cabinets with barely visible knobs and handles will ensure that your bathroom doesn’t feel too crowded, no matter how small it is.

Bathtubs
Creating a fabulous focal point for your bathroom while also adding just a touch of class and excellence is only possible with the right tub. Where you position your bathtub can make or break a room, as they say. The difference between a relaxing and stylish bathroom and the one that looks cramped is the position of your tub.
Those with large enough bathrooms should take a look at bold and luxurious freestanding bath because these tubs can act as a statement piece, and those with smaller bathrooms should opt for installing a concealed tub.

Round vanity mirrors
Giving your bathroom a makeover without spending too much money has never been easier. Mirrors with round shape instantly make a statement, and they are especially great when paired with a rectangular sink or a minimalistic cabinet.
Design a bathroom that will make you feel great in the morning and even better in the evening. These are the trends that will be popular in 2018, but don’t follow them blindly. Always add a personal touch to your bathroom. After all, it’s your bathroom, and you should feel like a million dollars in it
