Bathrooms International’s New Style – Glam-Chic

Bathrooms International’s New Style - Glam-Chic

Key trends in bathrooms by Cheryl Gurner, Creative Director, Bathrooms International:

“I sense a new style coming in, which I’m calling Glam-Chic! It’s a culmination of glamour and elegance, but with a new contemporary sophistication.
It’s been growing underground for some time; it started with the vintage revival in fashion and has gone on to advocate and re-appreciate great design in the home from decades past.

At the same time, we’ve been living in a market flooded with minimalism, which has lacked a degree of femininity; this new mood is softer, it allows the different issues to work more comfortably together.

Bathrooms International’s Trends For 2007

Bathrooms International’s Up-Coming Trends For 2007

With over 30 years experience, Bathrooms International is proud of its global reputation as a leading bathrooms company, selecting and sourcing the most exclusive range of baths, sanitary ware, fittings and accessories from Europe and America.

Cheryl Gurner, head of creative design at Bathrooms International, is a leading authority in the bathroom industry and predicts the trends for 2007: There is a definite movement towards quality in terms of design and material, people are prepared to pay more for something of lasting value, looks and performance, preferably from the UK or Europe. Pure white crystal is going to be big in 2007 – in our case it will be taps, and in a wide range of finishing touches; Bronze and Nickel will continue to be the most popular metals. Stone and wood and any natural ecological material will be in favour and recycling and the use of organic principles and materials will become the norm. Personal style and preference will be much stronger than what’s new or by the latest designer.– Individual and `made in small batches’ will be the key message. Bathrooms will continue to be the focal and private place for peace and quiet where nothing can intrude!

The bathroom featured here is a luxurious Tessa Kennedy design.

As this is the season of New Year’s Resolutions, Ripples have some great ideas for a healthier lifestyle, and to relax after the excesses of the festive season.

One of their suggestions is to steam away those toxins in a steam shower – either installing a custom made steam shower enclosure or by adding a steam generator to transform your existing shower.

Alternatively, you can create a relaxing haven in your bathroom using aromatherapy candles, essential oils and chromatherapy lighting. Ripples can install this colourful lighting in any bathroom – choose from greens and blues to restore, yellows to cheer and invigorate or reds to stimulate.
