We\u2019re seeing a number of design trends in the bathroom that you\u2019ll want to consider when remodeling or building new.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Furniture in the Bathroom<\/strong><br \/>\nOne design trend that we\u2019ve seen for a while is bathroom vanities that look like pieces of furniture. We\u2019re seeing smaller designs for powder rooms and larger vanities for master bathrooms. In fact, one large bathroom vanity with a sink on either side is becoming popular for couples who share the space. For older homes, a darker stained wood works well with a light Granite vanity countertop.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Freestanding Cabinetry<\/strong><br \/>\nSometimes the double vanity just looks too bulky in the bathroom. Instead, try two pedestal sinks, for \u201chis and hers\u201d, with a freestanding bathroom vanity in the middle. We\u2019re seeing quartz bathroom countertops used more and more in this design due to the wide array of colors now available.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Escape to the Bathroom<\/strong><br \/>\nToday\u2019s homeowner wants the look and feel of a spa at home.
