    Decorative Trim Items Add Function and Style

    Although we often showcase a bathroom's tile work, storage options, or unique features such as a water closet or clawfoot bathtub, we tend to overlook what goes on behind the scenes, namely the plumbing and drains.

    However, according to design experts, exposed plumbing has become a popular trend since 2020. In fact, if you've been concerned about hiding your pipe system behind drywall, don't be afraid to show it off! Manufacturers, such as Kingston Brass, now offer stylized supply lines with industrial-inspired finishes that are meant to be seen and appreciated.

    Adding decorative exposed plumbing can bring personality to an otherwise plain bathroom. Additionally, the finish you choose can either soften the industrial look, enhance it as much as you'd like, or give it a retro feel.

    When incorporating stylized plumbing fixtures, it's essential to coordinate with the bathroom's tiles and other fixtures, such as towel bars, towel rings, grab bars, and robe hooks. Beyond that, don't be afraid to experiment by trying a finish that differs from what you currently have.
