Freestanding baths, heated towel rails and customisable bathroom furniture are the top three Australian bathroom trends predicted by Reece for the year ahead.
Freestanding baths

With so many captivating freestandingΒ options available, this is fast becoming the must-have item for anyΒ modern bathroom. Designers and consumers alike have embracedΒ the trend, with nearly every finalist in the annual Reece BeautifulΒ Bathroom Competition showcasing a freestanding bath.
Luxury heated towel rails
Heated towel rails have more than doubled in growth over the lastΒ three years and are one of the most popular categories, especially in winter. βAustralian homeowners enjoy the instant touch of luxuryΒ a heated towel rail offers,”Β says Reece Bathroom marketing manager Belinda Geels.
Customisable bathroom furniture
Studies show that Australians are making more considered decisionsΒ about the types of products they put into their bathroom space,Β including furniture and high quality items. Reece has seen significantΒ growth in the βbathroom furnitureβ category, with a wide variety ofΒ fully customisable options now readily available. The most popularΒ ranges include unique options that cater to the trend of increasedΒ personalisation in the bathroom. βMany vanity units now incorporateΒ hidden compartments and additional storage options,”Β says Geels. βThere has been aΒ distinct move from simple cabinetry to elegant pieces of furniture.β

Wow! The bathroom is perfect. It really looks amazing.
How is having a bathroom with a timber floor allowable in Australia with regulations on wetsealing everything? Looks absolutely beautiful though. A photo at night with the fire alight and lights low would be nice to see and perhaps a fluffy rug next to the bath??
Are these the timber-look tiles? they look fabulous! I’m loving the fireplace too. Bathrooms have come a long way – you could almost sleep in them now!
