New research undertaken by Plumbnation has revealed some of the biggest trends in bathroom design. The research looked at a comprehensive list of bathroom trends, as well as lists of bathroom colours, bath types and shower types and recorded their search volumes for 2021 using Google Keyword Planner, as well as recording the number of posts that each trend has on Instagram. It then ranked them accordingly to reveal the top trends in different categories, such as showers, bathtubs and colours.
The most searched bathroom trend of 2021 is bidets. Bidets are a common fixture in many countries, especially in mainland Europe, but have not historically enjoyed equal popularity in the UK. Could this top result for the overlooked bathroom fixture be a response to the great toilet paper shortage of the early pandemic?
Bathroom wallpaper is the second most searched bathroom trend of the year. Wallpaper seems to have taken a slight dip in popularity in recent years, however, the tide could well be turning.
Terrazzo tiles are one of the most prolific design styles out there at the moment, being hugely popular in bathrooms all over the world. These tiles are highly versatile, adding texture to floors, walls and fixtures, softening the look of any room. Terrazzo tiles are also one of the most durable materials, being resistant to stains and water damage.
The most popular bathroom colour on Instagram is white, with 73,860 posts, while freestanding bathtubs are the most popular type of bath by search volume, with 1,249,333 searches.
Walk-in showers are the most popular shower type by search volume, with 1,420,000 searches and the most popular type of shower on Instagram was outdoor showers, which had 107,357 posts.
