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.

There are numerous ways to design your kitchen and bathroom to achieve a fresh look. One increasingly popular option is to implement a seamless design. A seamless design focuses on reducing the number of elements that detract from the style of a fixture, appliance, or foundational element in the home. This style is a blend of modern and minimalistic while allowing for a wide breadth of personal customization.

A bathroom is more than a place to get ready for work and wash off the day. It’s a space where you can relax and recharge right in the comfort of your home. Whether you’re shaking off sleep or getting ready for slumber, the bathroom is the perfect room in the house for creating the rituals that help you transition through the day.

Over the years, kitchen and bathroom faucets have taken on many styles and forms. While much of the focus has been on the design of the faucet body, there is a new trend making waves in the home design scene. Increasingly, decorative handles are becoming the focal point of faucet style.

Of all the challenges homeowners have to contend with, water is perhaps the greatest. Though it gives us life, it also works nonstop to wear our houses down and return them to the soil — and your bathroom is one of the spots in your home that takes the hardest hit!
