Los Angeles Bathroom Remodeling Design Trends

If there’s a consensus among bathroom designers, it’s that 2013 is the year of the spa. New and remodeled bathrooms are geared toward the spa’s clean look and functionality, with the accent on individual taste. A quick poll among professionals shows these trends dominating:

Spa appointments. Besides the major fixtures such as whirlpool tubs or steam showers, other spa-like appointments are increasingly popular, such as double vanities, vessel sinks, and bidets.

Cool colors. Wall and ceiling colors in subdued earth tones, creams, pale greens and blues are demonstrably relaxing, especially combined with live plants and natural wood, such as bamboo blinds or shutters.

Handmade tiles. This is where the homeowners assert their individuality—beautiful tiles that coordinate or accent the main color scheme are a staple in designer baths that shows no sign of going away.
