It’s a space where we begin and end each day, so it’s important that it’s comfortable, functional and luxurious. With that in mind, we’ve put together some of the latest trends in bathroom design to help you create a unique and luxurious space in your home, and we’re always here to help!

Master Baths: A Private Retreat

Master baths are no longer just a place to wash up and get ready for the day. They have evolved into luxurious retreats where homeowners can unwind, relax and rejuvenate. Some of the latest trends in master bath design include:

  1. Spa-Like Features: Homeowners are incorporating spa-like features into their master baths, such as soaking tubs, steam showers and heated floors.
  2. Statement Lighting: Unique lighting fixtures can add a touch of glamour and drama to your master bath. Pendant lights, chandeliers and sconces are all popular choices.
  3. Unique Materials: Incorporating unique materials such as marble, onyx, and quartzite can add a touch of luxury and sophistication to your master bath.
  4. Heated floors: We know you don’t always need this feature in S. Texas, but it’s a wonderful addition on those chilly winter mornings and nights.

Guest Baths: Style and Functionality

Guest baths are an opportunity to showcase your style and hospitality to your guests. Here are some of the latest trends in guest bath design:

  1. Bold Wallpapers: Bold and graphic wallpapers are making a comeback and can add a fun and playful touch to your guest bath.
  2. Vintage Fixtures: Vintage fixtures such as clawfoot tubs, pedestal sinks and brass faucets can add a touch of character and charm to your guest bath.
  3. Floating Vanities: Floating vanities are sleek and modern and can make a small guest bath feel more spacious.

DIY Projects: Personal Touches

If you’re feeling creative and want to add a personal touch to your bathroom design, here are some DIY projects to consider:

  1. Painted Tile: If you have plain white tiles in your bathroom, consider painting them with stencils or patterns for a unique and colorful look.
  2. Custom Shower Curtains: Custom shower curtains can add a personal touch to your bathroom and can be made with a variety of fabrics and trims.
  3. Repurposed Furniture: Repurposing an old dresser or console table as a vanity can add a rustic touch to your bathroom design.

The latest trends in bathroom design are all about luxury, originality and, of course, functionality. Whether you’re designing a master bath or a guest bath, there are plenty of options to help you create a unique and stylish space that’s so much more than just a bathroom. As a Texas custom home builder, we can help you incorporate these trends into your custom home design to create a bathroom that is both beautiful and functional.

Bathroom by Stone Creek Custom Homes

The bathroom is often considered a woman’s domain, but what about the men? This is one room in the house where their requests are sometimes overlooked. We recently conducted an informal poll to find out just what it is men want in their bathroom, and we were surprised by some of the answers and not so surprised by others.

Some men wanted urinals in their home bathrooms. Flat screen TVs were a hit, not to mention accommodations for libations. A bathroom fridge, anyone? Certainly, there were requests for large showers, spa tubs and, oh yes, surround sound. One man dreamt of a basketball hoop. This is where we begin to see why some men don’t get final say as to what goes into the master bath.

Still, whether you’re a bachelor or a family man, maybe it’s time to start imagining your perfect bathroom. Here are some ideas to help you start dreaming.

  1. Full-length Urinals. Yes it’s true! Urinals can be added to your master bath with a touch of class. Imagine a urinal alcove surrounded by beautiful stone work. Designed properly, it doesn’t have to be in the line-of-site of the doorway and can even have a partial door on it to keep the look of the bathroom streamlined.
  2. Shaving Serenity. You can now install dimmable backlit mirrors that will ensure you never miss a hair while you’re shaving again!
  3. Color du Jour. If men had their druthers, would you always go with the traditional black, gray or black and white décor? Certainly not! Modern men aren’t afraid to add a splash of color here and there. The use of dark wood with white accents is clean-looking yet masculine. If you want to amp up the testosterone, consider having a custom-made countertop made out of wood with a live edge. This natural look is raw, sexy, yet still luxurious. Also consider having a mural painted by your favorite local artist – something no one else has, and most people will never see. Sky’s the limit!
  4. Music. Surround sound is a great idea, but if it’s not in your budget, you can easily install a waterproof Bluetooth speaker. Listen to music from your phone that plays through a mini speaker that suctions to the shower wall. It’s time to “wash-n-roll!”
  5. Custom Home Steam Room. Remember this is your dream bathroom, and what better way to dream than in your own private steam room? From minimalist to bamboo bliss, you can truly have it all now. Check out these designs for further inspiration.
