4 new trends for bathrooms

Trend 1: Blurring Borders. Use warm grey tones in graduating shades of brightness - HIMACS Santa Ana, Terrazzo Grigio, Alpine White and Maui.

Solid surface material brand HIMACS and the Dutch furniture and product designer Marike Andeweg have joined forces to create a new bathroom brochure for architects, designers and specifiers.

The brochure provides a useful guide to creating inspirational designer bathrooms using Himacs.

The collaboration is a long-standing one. For several years, Andeweg has used the solid surface material to design basins and bathroom accessories for her design label Not Only White, which is based in Amsterdam.

The brochure identifies 4 up-and-coming trends designers will want to bring to their bathroom projects:

Blurring Borders Inspired by the harmony of nature.
Barefoot Luxury An ode to 'slow living'.
Japandi A fusion of Zen style and Scandinavian design.
Emotional Shades An essential look, full of light.

Durability, aesthetic appeal, a silky texture and high standards of hygiene make Himacs an ideal material for any bathroom environment.

Trend 4: Japandi. Harness the harmony between Japanese and Scandinavian architecture, focusing on calm and personal care with warm tones of Himacs.
