Colourful bathrooms are the number one trend for 2022 and will continue into 2023, that’s what Easy Bathrooms say.
Using in-house data and market research, Easy Bathrooms has noted that customers are increasingly looking for bold colours, patterns and textures in their bathrooms, via tiles, sanitaryware, and even painted baths.
Searches for colourful bathroom products have increased by 478% on Easy Bathrooms’ own site, whilst Google Trends data shows that people are looking for more colourful bathrooms than ever before. In fact, the data has prompted the firm to launch a number of new products and offerings, such as a painting service on freestanding baths.
“There are several ways to achieve colour in a bathroom”, explains Lee Reed, Head of Marketing at Easy Bathrooms. “Tiles, ceramics, paint, and vanity units typically lend themselves to being able to take plenty of colour. You can either stick to the mantra of opposites attract, so, for example, plain tiles and colourful fixtures or bold tiles and paired back accessories. Or you can be brave and go for colourful everything! If you do decide on this option, carefully consider the colour wheel if you are wanting to inject several different colours as this will make sure they work in harmony with each other.”
I love the idea of being brave. What are my options?
“While we may have previously dismissed retro coloured bathroom suites as a deal breaker when it came to bathrooms, things have changed, and coloured ceramics have re-emerged as a design-led bathroom product,” continued Lee.
Easy Bathrooms sells a selection of both traditional and contemporary-coloured ceramics, depending on the period and style a homeowner is going for. The Burlington range in either Confetti Pink or Alaska Blue marries colour with traditional style, though both shades are a rather contemporary twist.
Their new collection comprises a wall hung basin, toilet and two bidet options, each of which can be purchased in four shades of black, matt navy, matt grey and white. This range is great for people who want to add colour and be eco-conscious – as the bidet actually saves water. While the bidet itself uses water, it uses significantly less than required in the production of even recycled toilet paper, and a fraction of the amount consumed by virgin pulp.
Do I have to use bright colour for my bathroom to be colourful?
“Colour can be achieved in subtle ways including using metallics. You have probably noticed that brass and rose gold hues are dominating interiors at the moment and bathrooms are no different.” said Lee.
