Are you remodeling or adding a bathroom to your home this year? Before embarking on a new look for a powder room, family or master bath, check out this year’s Bucks County bath design trends to give your bathroom remodel the edge.

Showers

2020 has seen a rise in shower upgrades in Bucks County bath designs. Many homeowners are not including a tub in bath renovations and focusing on larger showers and increased storage. At Lang’s Kitchen & Bath, thresholdless showers account for 65% of our installations. These are an excellent choice for a universal bath design, being both stylish and accessible. 85% of our bath designs are including showerheads plus hand showers. As well as being ideal for all bathroom users, regardless of ability, hand showers make cleaning the walls and shower doors much easier.  It’s clear that multiple shower heads and luxury features such as steam are becoming huge in Buck’s County bathroom design. This thresholdless shower enclosure in Yardley has storage, seating, a hand and large rainfall shower for the ultimate in luxury.

White and Gray

White and gray color schemes are still very strong in Buck’s County bath design trends. White on white is popular this year for a clean, fresh choice that gives a nod to the current minimalism look. If white is your preferred color scheme, you don’t have to go completely white. Add a pop of color with blue or coral pink or introduce a Gothic vibe with black accessories, faucets, or light fittings. Metallics and wood add interest or warmth to an all-white or gray bath design. Go for as much or as little as you want and still be on trend with your classic base color. This bathroom remodel in Doylestown embraces white and grey with an accent of navy.

Walls and Floors

Floating vanities and toilets give more space to show off tiling. Glossy, large tiles are the ideal choice for a spa-style bath design. Vinyl is an option for a more textured look that can mimic wood and other materials, while being waterproof. You can try mosaic or patterned tiles as backsplashes or within a shower enclosure. Regardless of the material you choose, Buck’s County bath design trends are leaning towards the elegant simplicity of white and gray tones.

Smart Technology

Technology has arrived to enhance more aspects of your bath design than you can dream of.  Bucks County residents are looking for more than just music streamed into their bath remodels. Concealed USB and charging ports are becoming a staple in bath design. Voice commands work to control water temperature and flow in showers. Self-cleaning toilets, sensor faucets and lighting, touch screen mirrors and de-misters are all becoming popular choices in Bucks Country bath design. Don’t dismiss smart technology as purely for gadgets as it can play a huge part in aging-in-place bath design, enhancing our lives into the future.

Metallics

Bucks County bath design has seen a decrease in the traditional or farmhouse look. Modern metallics such as brushed or stainless steel, brass and hammered copper are just some exciting trends to include in your bath remodel. Try open shelving in metal instead of wood. Cabinet hardware or light fixtures in an interesting metallic finish can become a feature in an otherwise neutral bath design. Faucets can really add to a remodel if you think about their style and material. As well as going for a different finish, embrace the latest trend we’ve seen at Lang’s where high-end single lever faucets have replaced separate faucets and center spouts. This single lever gold faucet adds sleek sophistication to a Yardley bath design.

Lighting

2020 is all about statement lighting in bath design. Chandeliers, sconces and uplighting bathtubs are all on trend in Bucks County this year, as are dimmers for ceiling lights in strategic locations. Chromotherapy is another trend on the rise and uses colored lighting to change the look and feel of your bath design at a moment’s notice, with voice control technology. The sky's the limit for what you can do with lighting this year in your Bucks County bath design.
