‘Tis the season to be jolly and with it a new year approaches. As the theme of change hangs in the air, many homeowners start to consider possible upgrades to their home.
A nice bathroom is on everyone’s wish list, making it hardly surprising that many home improvements in Atlanta and the rest of the country center on this room. So if you’re one of those homeowners thinking of pursuing a bathroom remodeling project in early 2024, here are the trends of which you want to take note.
Home Spas
The home spa trend is not new, but experts predict that it will continue to be a common request from clients in 2024. Converting a primary bathroom into a personal spa is achieved mainly through installing spa-like features such as steam showers, towel heaters, hydrotherapy tubs, heated floors, aromatherapy dispensers, and more. As for the interior design, homeowners opt for soft and relaxing tones coupled with warm lighting to achieve that spa atmosphere. With these changes, the bathroom becomes another space for relaxation inside the home—an invaluable asset in a post-pandemic world.
Smart Bathrooms
Voice-activated lighting and temperature features? Smart mirrors that can play the news? Toilets with automatic lids and self-heating seats? These used to be things only seen in futuristic movies but are now fixtures in modern-day bathrooms. Many homeowners also install water-saving technology like touch-free faucets and automatic showers for sustainability purposes.
Space-Saving Features
Even small bathrooms deserve a glow up! By being creative with the layout, plus using floating vanities, wall-mounted sinks, multi-purpose furniture, and other economic elements, you can still achieve style and function even if the allotted space is small.
Aesthetic Tiles
The verdict is in: goodbye boring tiles, hello artistic tiles. Patterned tile installations like chevron, herringbone, and hex will become increasingly in demand in 2024. Textured tiles such as ceramic and porcelain will still be popular choices as well. There is also a continuing shift towards tile options with small or no grout lines to minimize the upkeep. Designers and homeowners will heavily rely on tiles to make a visual statement, whether it’s for a backsplash, an accent wall, or a highlighted shower area.
Ambient and Decorative Lighting
Lighting can make or break a room’s aesthetic, which is why there is a push to make more thoughtful lighting choices during bathroom remodels. Customizable mood lights are a great addition to any bathroom, especially if you want your space to have a home spa quality to it. The use of more decorative lighting pieces like wall-mounted lamps and ornate chandeliers are also going to be more prevalent in the coming year.
