Want to know what’ll be hot in 2021? Join eTrade, as we reveal the must-have big bathroom trends for the year ahead.

For those of you who love keeping up with the latest fashions, you’re in for a real treat! One of our favourite things is keeping an eye out for new and upcoming trends in interior design, especially where they have a direct influence on bathrooms. Many of these trends flow and overlap into others, which is great news if you're new to interior design.

So, sit back and read on, as we share 5 big bathroom trends for 2021.

1. New Metallics

Still sticking with chrome? It's time to tap into this latest trend and move away from the mainstream. Why not freshen up with different metallic finishes like gold, nickel and antique bronze (like these gorgeous bath taps pictured below).

2. Modern Vintage Mix

Going to prove that you needn’t stick with one single style, the Modern Vintage Mix is a growing interior trend, combining traditional statement pieces, like roll top baths, with contemporary elements.

3. Fully Accessorised Bathrooms

From the soap dish to the toilet brush holder, bathrooms which are fully accessorised from top to toe are a growing trend for 2021 and here at eTrade we're happy to provide the widest range of bathroom accessories around.

4. Block Bold Colours

Single shades or a complementary combination of colours, from skirting boards to ceilings

If there are 1 or 2 colours you really love, why not just go for it with block bold colours? Homeowners are now being bolder with their colour choices, cranking the volume right up to maximum with a single, all-over colour, which includes matching furniture and other products like basins or taps. Slight tonal changes will help to add definition, like a blush basin against a hot pink wall. Click on one of our links below to browse a selection of our premium branded paints.

By painting your cladding, walls and skirting boards in one single colour, it'll feel like all your surfaces are merging. However, slight textural changes allow for differentiation.

Popular contemporary colour combinations for this bathroom trend include pink & blue, green & orange and blue & white.

5. Dark Accents

Like a well-oiled machine, the soft industrial theme rumbles on. In 2021, the trend for thin, black metal frames, especially when used to frame glass, plus black taps and accessories, help deliver genuine urban appeal.
