Irregular shapes and organic design

This mood board is all about irregular shapes and organic design. From basins and bathtubs to mirrors and wall lights, you won’t find one single straight line here. The exception is the tapware, which has remarkable vertical lines. Regarding the colour for taps and other accessories, we suggest gunmetal, which matches well the earthy tones of the terrazzo floor tile.

The terrazzo itself is marked by irregular shapes and organic design as well. And the combination of greys and light browns is perfect on a white background. On the walls, we suggest accent 3D tiles in sandy tones, with light grey or off-white being another option. For the vanity, we suggest white, the same colour as for the sanitaryware. Plant pots help to create a natural atmosphere, bringing nature to inside this bathroom.

Assisted bathrooms: more and more popular

Assisted living bathrooms are becoming more and more popular. Especially with an increase in the elderly population, allowing people to stay longer in their own homes. These bathrooms provide a few different features, both for safety and accessibility, such as grabrails and overheight toilets.

These overheight toilets can be installed with sensor flush buttons, for example, which are touchless and therefore more hygienic. Electronic bidets are also useful when talking about hygiene. Some brands of bidets can be coupled with existing toilets, depending on the size and shape of the pan. They offer an additional level of comfort for the user, with heated seats and different jets of water.

For wheelchair users, mixers with extended levers are essential, as well as wall-mounted basins and walk-in showers. For low-vision users, matte black tapware offers good contrast with white tiles, making it easy to locate the handles. On the floor, a slip-resistant tile is a great option to prevent accidents. This feature is useful not only for the elderly but for anyone who wants a safer bathroom.
