Bathrooms are becoming functional sanctuaries

PINTEREST'S HEAD OF HOME MATT SIBERRY SHARES THE TOP THREE BATHROOM TRENDS THAT PEOPLE ARE 'PINNING' THE MOST THIS SEASON

- 

The bathroom is one of the rooms we often escape to, especially if we're looking to relax and have some me-time. Parents will know this all too well, but aside from peace and quiet from children, the room also gives us a place for pampering, sanctuary, ideation and of course, utility. Many of us will be looking for small moments of self-care, and our bathrooms sit at the heart of this.

Admittedly, as the owner of a small apartment with a small bathroom, I have a lack of options, which is a total blessing most of the time. When I’m not showering down my dog, I’m ensuring my bathroom is used for personal rituals, with smaller details making it feel like micro indulgence. Whether that’s with a powerful rainfall showerhead, fluffy soft towels, or stylish storage units – these all add to a feeling of escapism and relaxation.

Regardless of a bathroom’s size, we all have the power to create a functional sanctuary in our homes. Our latest Pinterest Predicts report has captured what Pinners are searching for and saving on their boards, so here are the major trends that will break out in the bathroom.
