7 Bathroom Trends for 2022

Top Bathroom Design Ideas


With most of us spending more time at home in the past year, 44% of Australians are now allocating their holiday money to home renovations, creating a luxurious space to enjoy all-year-round.

We love nothing more than seeing a beautiful bathroom renovation come to life, so we’ve identified the top 7 bathroom design trends for 2022 to help you on your way.

1. Hampton bathroom style

It’s all in the detail when it comes to a Hamptons design. The Hampton bathroom style embraces classic white shaker door cabinetry, accentuated with chrome or brushed nickel tapware. The Phoenix Nostalgia tapware and accessories collection was made for the modern Hamptons bathroom featuring a detailed design for timeless elegance.

2. Coastal bathroom

A coastal bathroom is a relaxed style inspired by the ocean. To create a modern coastal bathroom, incorporate natural materials and neutral tones. Solid surface stone basins and baths in round or oval shapes, timber vanities with white benchtops and stainless steel or brushed nickel tapware are the perfect choice for a coastal bathroom style.

3. Simple and small

Off the back of the tiny home movement, we are seeing so many simple and small bathroom ideas with BIG impact. It’s all about making your bathroom appear bigger than it is through the use of white walls, a light floor colour, plenty of natural light and wall hung vanities. We’re a huge fan of having a statement in the space, such as matte black tapware.

4. Minimalist bathroom

A minimalist bathroom is very calming with a simple bathroom design that brings you pure joy. Minimalist doesn’t mean plain and boring, opt for a neutral tone overall, no clutter and one beautifully striking feature that draws the eye, such as a unique mirror shape, or gold tapware.

5. Concrete Basins

Looking for a bathroom design statement? You can’t go past concrete basins in pastel finishes. Handcrafted right here in Australia, the Nood Co Concrete basins offer raw beauty, perfect for a luxurious resort inspired bathroom design.

6. Timber

Add warmth and depth to your bathroom with timber finishes. Solid timber vanities are a premium choice and made here in Australia. Choose from wall hung or freestanding designs that are sure to make you swoon every time you walk in the room. If you’re looking to only add smaller timber elements to your space, opt for the Caroma Elvire Collection, incorporating timber into bathroom accessories and tap handles.

7. In Wall Toilets

In wall toilets have become an increasingly popular choice in modern bathrooms as they look seamless and take up less room, great for any size bathroom. Featuring the latest in Cleanflush technology and a rimless design, it has never been easier to keep your toilet clean.
