nterior design trends mirror what we idealise in our home life. So, it’s no surprise that after two years of uncertainty and more time spent at home, we’re all craving a calm haven that supports our wellbeing. We can all appreciate the calming influence of nature, and this strong trend is set to continue. Natural textural materials, such as wood, stone and marble, have an easy affinity with kitchens and bathrooms. Add the pairing of plants and a natural earth-toned colour palette to really make these spaces shine. There is a colour to suit every taste here. From cool stone greys, warm neutrals, earthy pinks and caramels through to a spectrum of terracotta tones, olive and deep greens. Organic curves are another trend that sits comfortably alongside a natural look as they echo nature and unify spaces with a welcoming softness. In bathrooms, curves are appearing in basins, mirrors, tapware and accessories. Kitchens islands with rounded edges and cabinetry with curved hardware create a relaxed and cosy vibe. Corinthian columns are inspiring kitchen islands and bathroom vanities alike, while the subdued glamour of brushed brass tapware continues to shine. Now, more than ever, kitchens and bathrooms are designed for serenity, with uncluttered simplicity and clever storage solutions combining form and function. In these pages we explore some of the latest trends in kitchen and bathroom style and design. We hope you find some ideas to inspire your next project.
