Grange Design, leading UK-based designers, manufacturers and specialist distributers for the bathroom industry prepare for autumn-winter by sharing the latest 2024 bathroom trends set to make an impact next season.
Predicting two major trends, Clive Griffiths, Manager at Grange Design shares his advice on the latest must-have bathroom products and how you can ‘get the look’ in your home this AW24.
REGENCY CORE: Traditional bathrooms will be inspired by the market’s ongoing love of maximalist décors and the perennial charm of the Regency era, which is bringing a range of bold patterns and darker colour palettes into the bathroom next season.
We’re finding that character is being introduced through the fixtures and fittings, with designer brassware, over the top window dressings, and statement tiles coming out on top. Look out for ornate basin taps with strong curves, solid brass construction and classic capstan-style or ceramic handles. For a superior bathing experience, invest in a deck or floor-mounted bath/shower mixer and enjoy the convenience of combining your bath taps and hand-shower in one fixture.
Geometric patterns and signature design details will therefore become a cornerstone of the regency core bathroom this AW24, and also serve as a great way to elevate your plain white sanitaryware! From bold tiles in your favourite print or pattern through to white glazed basins, and freestanding bathtubs with prominent brassware, more is always better when capturing the look of regency core in your bathroom.
Grange Design recommend Leonardo, a timeless brassware collection known for its classic Italian design and heritage style proportions. Discover the Leonardo Deck Mounted Bath Shower Mixer in Chrome, as pictured, which is available to buy direct and online for £1,048 including vat.
QUIET LUXURY: At the other end of the design spectrum, the quiet luxury trend continues to promote wellness in the home with the contemporary bathroom zeroing in on simplicity. Helping to make everyday a spa day, next season will inspire a range of bathroom products that stand out for their level of restraint and ‘non design’ such as minimalist taps with slim levers, contemporary black accents and quality raw materials like stone and wood.
Ideal for a pared-back yet highly luxurious aesthetic, basin taps will be as simple as a solitary spout fitted to the wall or lone monobloc mixer with sleek contours to make a feature of the basin. The mood is very much ‘quality over quantity’, with a trend towards more atypical finishes such as matt black and polished metals to create that fundamental ‘wow-factor’ and signature design identity.
Grange Design recommend its Atlantic Collection, which is designed with ergonomics in mind to optimise the wash zone. Discover the Atlantic Single Lever Mono Basin Mixer Tap in Matt Black, as pictured, which is priced at £209 including vat, and available to buy direct and online.
