Bathroom Tiling Trends of 2018

Renovations are about 90% preparation as my father would say and the other 10% should be an easier execution. Researching your bathroom is all about that preparation so it is crucial to follow the latest trends and see if they are right for you.

With trends that’s what they are trends they come and go but this is not to say they don’t make the most out of the space. Below I will show you three latest bathroom tiling trends that I personally think work in modern bathrooms and won’t age your bathroom a year from now.

1. Get Creative With Encaustic Pattern Tiles

Patterned designs are another trend that isn’t going anywhere. Starting with colourful designs a few years ago, the pattern trend has very much settled down in terms of colour and has become more of a vintage style, with the encaustic look becoming evermore popular.  With this be careful what you pick you to need to love it with all your heart as this style is very hit and miss. Most people we have done this for have loved it but others who see the pictures don’t so much. Have conviction in what you choose.

2. Eye-Popping Feature Walls

If you’re looking to make a bold statement with your bathroom update, then why not experiment with feature walls with a wow. Whether you want wall-to-wall luxury or an eye-catching feature wall, incorporating metallic accents, marble and wood with bathroom tiles is a fantastic way to transform and personalise a typically functional room. I am personally like i have many a time big on feature walls and i encourage everyone to have them done right.

 

3. 50 Shades Of Grey 

People don’t like cream in 2018 as they feel it looks yellow. White feels to stark and gets dirty so we are left with grey. Grey’s popularity has gained some serious momentum in the latter part of 2017, and this looks set to continue into 2018. As a neutral colour, grey can be paired with almost any shade – and depending on the choice of finish, it can be used to pull off a number of different aesthetics. From edgy and industrial concrete and rustic wood-effect tiles to classic natural stone and shiny metro tiles, grey bathroom tiles are going to be a trend worth trying out in 2018 – offering numerous ways to create an impactful bathroom design. Paired with a nice wood grain vanity it really finishes off a bathroom.

I picked these three because they are practical and won’t date as quick as others bathroom tiling trends.

When doing patterned tiles be careful to overdo the colour and grey tiles try not to go too dark. Its about being practical in your choices without having to nail a home run for every item in the room. The combination of light walls, darker floor and one feature are my keys to all bathroom planning, especially with tiles.

Mind the gap: Fit IKEA MALM over a tall baseboard

I forgot one thing when I ordered the MALM dresser : The baseboards in my apartment are very tall and very wide. So, when I installed it, I had a 4 cm gap between the wall and the back of the cabinet which was not aesthetically possible for me. As it is not possible to cut the back of dresser at the bottom to leave room for the tall baseboard, I decided that MALM should be raised. And it was much simpler than I had imagined. You’ll need: A MALM dresser (mine is a 6-drawer chest) Six oak bed legs (I think five would have been enough, but while I was there …) 6 mounting plates A piece of plywood the size of the bottom of the cabinet (I went to the hardware store next door, it cost me less than 5€) Screws White adhesive edging tape How to raise the MALM dresser above a tall baseboard Place the MALM upside down. Fix the plywood onto the underside of the MALM with screws. Predrill holes for the leg screws (if you have the same baseboard problem as me, make sure you measur...

IKEA KALLAX Queen Storage Bed

I built this prior to knowing this website existed, this probably would have saved some contemplation. For difficulty reference, I am no carpenter (electrician actually) and I built it with my right hand in a cast. We bought an old house with original hardwood flooring from the 40s so we were very concerned about damaging it. The casters on a normal bed frame put a lot of pressure on a small surface and we didn’t want it dented or damaged if things started a rockin …. Plus, a 40′s house has virtually no storage as you only needed 3 pairs of pants back then. IKEA material : 3 x KALLAX shelf units (4) 4 x KALLAX drawer kits 8 x KALLAX fabric boxes Non-IKEA material : 4 x 2×4 A grade (saves time) 2 x 2×6 2 x sheets 1/2″ plywood (what ever grade you want) 25ft x iron-on edge trim 100 x 3″ #8 wood screws 20 x 1-1/4″ #8 wood screws satin white paint Tools (I used) : Tape measure Drill w/ 1/8″ bit for piloting holes Impact driver for screws Table saw Miter saw Ass...
