Every year the bathroom becomes more of an area to escape and relax with time alone. 2010 has become no exception to the current trend of getting away with new concepts and designs of bathroom remodeling and smaller upgrades to furniture, tub fixtures, and vanities.
Wood and Bamboo in the Bathroom Everyone enjoys a relaxing day at the spa and homeowners are beginning to recreate the experience in their own bathroom. Wooden furniture, mirror frames, tub encasements, and wall paneling have become more popular. Wood helps dampen the cold echoing effect bathrooms can create to make it more inviting and relaxing. Vertical Spas Vertical spas use water jets to massage and focus on muscle groups in your body. Paired with rainwater showeheads, vertical spas offer one of the most relaxing showering experiences you can have at home.
Filtered Shower HeadsFiltered showerheads are becoming very popular after users claim to have softer, healthier hair. 
Bathroom TVs In the past if you wanted entertainment in the bathroom, your only choice was a waterproof AM/FM radio. Flat screen bathroom tvs have become a huge trend in 2010. Heated FlooringRadiant floor heating is a pleasing feature after stepping out of a bath on a cold day. Floor heating has a greater initial cost but the effects of the installation will not only warm your bare feet, the heated tiles will continue to emit heat long after the heating elements have been turned off. Nickel Faucets The most popular finish for faucets and fixtures this year has been nickel. It adds an incredibly elegent touch to any bathroom and its very resistant to scractches and showing fingerprints.
Antibacterial Tile2009 was a big year for combating communicable diseases and soon after we began to see technological advances in the bathroom. A brand new self-disinfecting, antibacterial tile reacts when sunlight or artificial UVA rays hit the titanium dioxide coating to kill bacteria found in bathrooms. Bathroom Color Trends Previous bathroom trends involved neutral shades like cream, beige, and taupe, creating a safe color sceme and a bland environment. In 2010 bolder paletts that create moods are being implemented to give you the feeling you want when you take your morning shower. You can envoke any mood using indirect lighting and cool colors to create a relaxing place to unwind after a long day.
If you want your bathroom to induce energy to wake you up in the morning, choose bolder primary colors that will give your mind and body a jump start.
