bathroom design has traveled to.
"In recent times there has been a proliferation of
large-format porcelain tiles," said Palumbo. "These have had a huge
impact on the overall aesthetic of modern bathrooms. The large square,
rectangular and plank-shaped porcelain tiles are very cost effective and
provide a sleek, clean-lined look. They are often paired with natural stone
tiles that help to warm up the space."
"Bathrooms in the older homes reflect a more
international influence, compared to a decade ago. The owners are often young
and well-traveled, and interested in transitional styling, rather than
replicating original bathrooms of the era. Designs are a lot more streamlined,
but also soft and respectful of the architecture."
"However, we are seeing a move
away from looks that are too clinical," added Palumbo. "A bathroom
needs to be an inviting retreat and this often translates to warm tones and
organic forms, materials and textures. There may even be a tile that mimics
wood – maybe bleached wood for a summer house."
