Make 2015 the year you tackle all of your remodeling projects, including your bathroom. You spend a lot of time in your Kansas City home’s bathroom, so why not be more comfortable in a space you enjoy. Plus, an updated bathroom can increase the value of your home. To bring your restroom up to date, try including one (or all) of these remodeling trends for 2015.
Tile Everywhere
Wallpaper and paint are out, tile is in. Tiles are so versatile when it comes to bathrooms. Not only can they be beautiful and creative, but they are durable and easy to keep clean. Whether you use tile on the floor, in the shower, or as a backsplash by the sink, it makes sense. Shiny subway tiles have been gaining momentum, as well as wood-look tile. But don’t limit your tile to one area. Use tile from the shower or floor, and extend it up to the ceiling. This can have an awe inspiring effect that actually enlarges the space in the room.
Spacious Glass Showers
Another popular trend we predict for 2015 is expansive showers with a streamlined look using heavy glass shower doors. This type of shower is luxurious and non-obtrusive to the eye. Large, walk-in showers are easy and relaxing. Showering is not just a way to get clean, but an experience, a way to relax and unwind before or after a rough day. See Janssen Glass & Door’s heavy glass shower door portfolio for some great ideas.
Unique Sinks
Your bathroom’s vanity is an opportunity to show off some personality. We are seeing a departure from the traditional oval ceramic sinks, and a venture into the bold. Different shapes, colors, and materials are making their way into bathrooms across the country. Large copper or glass basins are becoming popular. If you have a smaller bathroom to work with, we’ve been seeing an increase in rectangular sinks that are long and thin, sitting closer to the wall saving space.
Mirror Tricks
Reflect your personality in the bathroom with great mirror design. Take your mirror floor to ceiling and make the room appear larger. We’ve even seen mirrored subway tiles that look both luxurious and modern.
