Australian bathroom & laundry trends: May 2023 edition

By Amy Collins-Walker โ€ข 2 Comments

FacebookPinEmailTweet

From a fabulous line-up of metallic basins to the latest in laundry must-haves, there are plenty of great new products on the market for our bathrooms and laundries.

Meir: Available in four fabulous finishes including tiger bronze (brass), champagne, brushed nickel and shadow (gunmetal), the Lavello round basins are made from stainless steel and are coated in environmentally friendly PVD coating which ensures they are beautiful, durable and easy to clean. From $799.

Hisense: Minimalist in design, the latest Hisense washing machines (Series 5 and Series 7) not only look sharp but they’ve got eco-credentials too. Both product lines offer strong sustainability credentials when it comes to energy and water usage and we love the charcoal black finish.

Agape Memory collecction: Available locally at Artedomus, the latest Agape collection of tapware and bathroom accessories have a clean, timeless and versatile aesthetic. Made and designed in Italy, the brand is renowned for its beautiful craftmanship and contemporary interpretation of traditional bathroom fixtures and fittings and this range is no exception. Finishes include chrome, brushed burnished brass and natural brushed brass.ย

Hills Aluminium A-Frame Airer: It’s not often that we get excited about a clothes airer but this rose pink design caught our eye. Not only is air drying gentler on your clothing but it reduces energy bills and your environmental footprint too. To maximise drying efficiency, make sure to position your airer in a warm, breezy spot which could be under an open window, over an air vent or by an open door. $99.

Beaumont Tiles: Inspired by traditional Japanese screening, the Textile range of tiles comes in four trending colours – white, ecru, coral and terra. “The luxe furrowed surface of the Textile range will mean you canโ€™t help but touch the tiles!โ€ says Beaumont Tiles design specialist Christie Wood. From $39.95 per square metre.

Electrolux 9kg UltimateCare 900 heat pump dryer with 3D Sense: This dryer features technology that measures the humidity and dampness of the load and adjusts the drying time according to the fabrics being washed. Even silk and wool can be dried and special sensors also work to avoid over drying which can be harmful to fabrics. In addition, the fast drum movement on the wool cycle ensures wools are kept flat to reduce shrinkage. $2249.

Domenica Formulations laundry liquid: Made in Australia, this laundry liquid is not only housed in super chic packaging but it’s a rather luxe formulation. The product is cruelty free, gentle, non-toxic and free from parabens and artificial colours and dyes. And it smells amazing! $45.

Scarabeo Etra basin: Available locally through Paco Jaanson, this basin takes the shape of an arched window, with sharp lines complementing gentle curves. Available as either a wall-mounted basin, or paired with the Etra console, the white ceramic basins of Etra are sleek and minimalist.

Waken: An antidote to the traditional white dental care aesthetic, leading UK naturally-led mouthcare brand Waken has just hit Australian shelves. The brand’s sustainable packaging features pretty on-trend pastel shades that are perfect for leaving permanently on the bathroom bench top. The range features eight products in four flavours across toothpaste and mouthwash, including whitening, peppermint, mint and strawberry, and spearmint. From $13.

When her styling business took a hit, @vaultinteri When her styling business took a hit, @vaultinteriors decided to reduce her outgoings by moving to a tiny house. And we're not sure we've ever seen a more stylish one!

Although the move to a container home was motivated by financial pressures, Justine Wilson is loving her new simpler way of life.

Read her refreshingly honest, positive interview on the blog now, via link in bio.

It'll make you want to downsize too!

Appliance colour trends: They've certainly change Appliance colour trends:

They've certainly changed over the years. Remember when ALL fridges were white?! I remember the original BROWN wall oven in our 60s kitchen here pre-reno! I think the dishwasher was brown and beige (and it tripped the electrics every time we used it!) ๐Ÿ˜œ

What do you think of this new dark stainless steel option (pictured) from Westinghouse as seen in @dnaofdesign_'s latest reno? Yay or nay? 

What colour do you like your appliances?

See the rest of this home and kitchen and laundry design tips from the ex Blockheads on the blog now via link in bio.

A door to door continuous curved stone ledge in th A door to door continuous curved stone ledge in this bathroom is one of the cleverest designs we've seen in a while!

This mega ledge, made of Corian, even incorporates a sink, seamlessly.

Combined with venetian plaster on the walls, it's no wonder this Illawarra bathroom by @birdblackdesign feels like a day spa!

Come check it out via link bio.

Lead designer Stuart Gibson says: "One smooth curve, right around the room, from either side of the door opening. As it moves around, it creates a ledge for the bath: for bath oils, lotions, a book and a champagne glass. The ledge continues around and becomes the vanity, widening out to create a custom seamless basin."

Play room goals!๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿป This is just one room fr Play room goals!๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿป

This is just one room from today's real house tour which I really love because in employing interior designer @issyandhcreative the owners weren't looking for a complete rip out and re-do but rather to work with what they had in their new suburban home (including a dated kitchen) and give it a largely cosmetic glow up with styling and new furniture (some of which was upcycled). 

The brief was to create a family friendly home. "They weren't looking for perfection but rather a warm and relaxing retreat for their busy young family." This playroom though? Pretty close to perfect! And the mum did the colour coded books herself. Love that๐Ÿ˜
