Home improvement styles and trends may come and go, but if you have a bathroom that’s stuck in the ‘90s, it’s time to bring it into the 21st century with a fresh new look. Whether you're seeking a complete bathroom renovation or minor updates, a modern refresh will enhance your home's aesthetic and add value to your property. Here at Lyons & Island TIMBER MART, we’ve compiled a guide to help you transform your bathroom into a contemporary, comfortable space to relax and unwind. 1. Update Your Bathroom Fixtures A modern bathroom is characterized by a sleek, minimalist design. Replace old faucets, tapware, and showerheads with matching brushed nickel, matte black, or chrome finishes. For added practicality, swap out your dated showerhead with a luxurious rainfall shower or handheld combination. 2. Install New Lighting Switch out old light fixtures with contemporary sconces or an LED mirror. Choose energy-efficient bulbs, and consider going the extra mile with sleek rocker light switches and dimmable bulbs. 3. Introduce Modern Tile If you are replacing tiles, choose contemporary materials and patterns to modernize your space. Subway tiles, large-format tiles, and geometric patterns will achieve this look. Lean into neutral tile colours like whites, greys and soft beige. 4. Upgrade Your Vanity To save money, give your existing vanity a facelift with a coat of paint, new door hardware, and a new vanity top. Alternatively, replace it with a floating vanity with an integrated sink and ample storage. Soft-close drawers and cabinet doors will add a nice touch while reducing wear and tear over time. 5. Refresh the Walls Nothing will modernize your bathroom faster than a fresh coat of white paint. Brighten the room with a neutral base colour, and add bold accents like navy blue, sage green, or charcoal grey for an accent wall or vanity colour. Wall panelling, shiplap, and decorative wainscotting can add interest to a blank wall. Modernizing your bathroom doesn’t have to be overwhelming. Whether you plan to start with small updates like new fixtures and paint or complete a full remodel, you can create a stylish and functional space that reflects contemporary design.
