Shereen Lurie shares basin and bath trends currently shaping modern bathrooms

he bath and basin play a central role in balancing practicality, comfort and design as the defining features of all bathrooms. Choosing the right combination helps set the tone for the entire bathroom, bringing together style, comfort and everyday practicality. Discover which materials are proving most popular for baths and basins, how colour choices are evolving beyond traditional white finishes, and what home owners should consider when selecting pieces that balance aesthetics with practicality.

THE LATEST TRENDS Bathrooms are evolving beyond purely functional spaces to become personal sanctuaries for rest and rejuvenation.

Africa, notes that this shift is deeply rooted in the traditional bathing rituals of Japan and Scandinavia. “Bringing the trending Japandi aesthetic into this space seamlessly merges Japanese minimalism with Scandinavian cosiness, creating a peaceful oasis.”

This sense of calm is increasingly reflected in the design details. Nicole Russell, Italtile marketing manager, says that they’re seeing a strong shift to freestanding baths with soft, organic curves that anchor the space in quiet luxury, like the Victoria + Albert Lussari range, alongside space-savvy back-to-wall designs for more compact layouts. “Basins are equally expressive, with countertop and freestanding styles in matt black, gloss white, and natural textures such as cement bringing depth and individuality, while minimalist lines and integrated forms keep the aesthetic clean and contemporary.”

For basins, countertop and vessel basins continue to dominate contemporary spaces, especially in matt finishes and textured surfaces. Shazeen Jooma, director of Classic Luxury Bathrooms & Tiles, observes that floating vanities paired with minimalist basins are also popular as they create a clean, spacious look. “Overall, there is a noticeable shift toward timeless, understated elegance rather than overly ornate styling.”

FORWARD-THINKING MATERIAL “DuroCast® is a sustainably produced solid surface material that combines high-end design, durability, slip resistance and easy maintenance, making it ideal for luxurious bathtubs and bathroom spaces.” – Angelique Pillay, Duravit

POPULAR MATERIALS Bath and basin design is increasingly defined by materials that balance longevity, texture and understated luxury. One such product, says Russell, is Victoria + Albert’s premium bathroom collection, made from 100% QUARRYCAST™, offering exceptional durability, superior heat retention and a luxurious finish. Available in a range of sculptural basins and freestanding baths, the Victoria + Albert collection blends timeless design with everyday comfort. Its elegant aesthetic and lasting performance make it a worthwhile investment, backed by a 25-year warranty.

Similarly, André Wynand Van Niekerk, owner and managing director of TT Stone, says quartz continues to appeal to consumers for its lasting quality, everyday practicality and long-term value, with its versatility across a range of colours, textures and finishes making it well-suited to both contemporary and classic bathroom spaces.

BALANCING AESTHETICS AND PRACTICALITY Pillay believes imperfection in bathroom design helps create a space with interest and character. “Historically, the element of AXOR Suite bathtub.

imperfection has been a hallmark of Japanese design styles. This concept is known as wabi-sabi. It can be easily applied to the bathroom as well by avoiding symmetry and opting for natural imperfection in shapes rather than artificial perfection. Be careful not to overcrowd the space and let individual elements speak for themselves to create the right atmosphere.” This emphasis on organic form reflects a broader move towards bathrooms that feel both considered and lived-in.

That same desire for warmth and individuality is also influencing colour and material choices in the bathroom space.

While white remains timeless, there is a clear move towards

layered, tonal palettes and warmer neutrals. Michaela Nobre, marketing communications manager at hansgrohe, says that matt finishes, earthy hues and metallic accents are increasingly used to add depth and personality. “This is where AXOR FinishPlus surfaces come into play, offering an extensive range of finishes such as brushed bronze, matt black and polished gold optic, allowing home owners to customise basin fittings and co-ordinate seamlessly with broader colour schemes.”

oilets, taps and shower systems form the backbone of your bathroom. More than practical necessities, they help define the look, feel and functionality of the space. The right fittings are products ideal for a fully functional and aesthetically pleasing space, bringing together performance, comfort and timeless style.

METALLIC FINISHES When designing a bathroom, the details matter just as much as the overall style. Gaongalelwe More, digital marketing administrator at Geberit, has found that home owners are placing greater emphasis on quality materials, reliable functionality and ease of maintenance when designing their bathrooms. Metallic finishes have also become increasingly popular. “Brushed metal and stainless steel remain on trend, offering a timeless look while adding texture, durability and a refined contemporary feel to the space.”

HUMAN-CENTRIC SPACES

GOOD TO KNOW “Long-term durability is not determined by how a product looks on a shelf; it is determined by how intelligently it has been engineered to perform after years of daily use. The best bathroom fittings are often the ones home owners never have to think about again once installed.” – Tanya De Villiers, On Tap Plumbing & Bathrooms

On Tap Plumbing & Bathrooms

Bathroom design is becoming more human-centred, with innovation focused on how people use the space every day. Tanya De Villiers, marketing and new business development manager at On Tap Plumbing & Bathrooms, believes some of the most interesting developments are incredibly subtle. “For example, Meissen has introduced accessories such as toilet roll holders with integrated shelf space for a cellphone or personal items – a simple idea, but one that acknowledges modern behaviour within the bathroom environment. It sounds minor, yet these small considerations dramatically improve usability and convenience.”

LIXIL IMEA (GROHE)

BACTERIA REDUCING CO-ORDINATING COLOURS “While chrome remains a timeless choice, there is growing interest in warmer and more expressive finishes such as brushed cool sunrise, matt black and brushed hard graphite. Collections such as GROHE Colours allow home owners to co-ordinate taps, showers and accessories in matching finishes, creating a more personalised and cohesive bathroom design. Natural tones and textured materials continue to complement these finishes, reflecting the growing preference for spa-inspired spaces.”

– Corrie Stride, South East Africa leader at LIXIL IMEA

The latest Duravit ME by Starck Hero Edition toilet masterfully combines an iconic, outstanding design with cutting-edge technology and everyday practicality to deliver the ultimate in comfort. Angelique Pillay, sales and marketing manager at Duravit, says this premium toilet features the innovative, permanent DuraShield® glaze, which visibly reduces deposits and eliminates 99.99% of all bacteria without requiring any additional cleaning effort. “Engineered for both comfort and efficiency, its quiet, rotational flushing technology thoroughly cleans the ceramic bowl while using only a minimum amount of water. Additionally, the unit includes an ergonomically shaped toilet seat that offers a high level of seated comfort and is simple to remove for quick, effortless cleaning.”

PURPOSEFUL DESIGN “Architectural styling, user experience and sustainability are currently shaping modern tapware and shower fittings.

Minimalistic aesthetics that use clean, geometric forms continue to dominate contemporary interior spaces, while functionality, such as the precision water flow control that is supplied with all of Blutide’s mixers, enhances everyday usability.” – Lauren Beer, marketing manager at Vortex Sanitaryware

“Today’s most forward-thinking bathroom design is where intelligent innovation meets effortless style. Think rimless, water-saving toilets with enhanced hygiene and soft-close functionality; sculptural touchless or precision-mixer taps in bold finishes like matt black and brushed gold, paired with sustainability-focused flow control; spa-inspired shower systems featuring rainfall heads, dual-flow functionality; and immersive wellness add-ons such as chromotherapy and steam. Together, these elements are designed to elevate everyday living and transform the bathroom into a personalised sanctuary.”

FLOW-RATE RESTRICTORS “Combining flow-rate restrictors at the basin taps and shower heads and thermostatic valves at the shower and bath gives you full control over the amount of water you use in your bathroom. Flow-rate restrictors restrict the amount of water at your taps, and thermostatic controls ensure you don’t waste any water trying to find the perfect temperature. Thermostatic controls are set at a specific temperature, such as 38°C, and warms to that temperature every time. No need to fuss with the mixer handle to find that temperature.” – Kirsten Stigling, interior design and sales consultant at LAVO Bathroom Concepts

ECO SMART Contemporary fittings are proving that high-performance and sustainability can go hand in hand. Advanced technologies ensure consistent water flow, air-enriched sprays, and temperature control, all while reducing consumption. Michaela Nobre, marketing communications manager at hansgrohe, explains that “hansgrohe’s EcoSmart technology, for example, limits water usage without compromising comfort, while sleek tap and shower designs maintain a strong architectural presence, proving that efficiency and elegance can coexist effortlessly.” Q

LUXE LIVING BATHROOMS DURAVIT

Symbiosis: for Christian Werner, a design is timeless if it meets its clear, practical objective while also retaining an aesthetic purity.

Wellness with a wow factor With sanitaryware from Duravit, your bathroom becomes a place of warmth and cosiness “Each element of the Vitrium bathroom range has a clear, practical purpose while also retaining an aesthetic purity.

Consequently, the design is more than simply functional; it’s also sensual and timeless,” says Christian Werner, describing his design philosophy. The Vitrium bathtub, which rounds off the bathroom range, is a logical continuation of this approach, and its sleek design language transforms the bathroom into a feel-good room.

Available in two variants made from DuroCast® (cast mineral material): • Freestanding bathtub, 1850mm x 950mm.

• Back-to-wall version, 1850mm x 950 mm; optionally available with Air System.

Optional addition to both baths: a wooden shelf made of real wood (natural oak).

VITRIUM’S DESIGN IS TIMELESS What is special about Werner’s design is the slightly offset, all-round edge of the bathtub that encloses it like a gentle frame and mirrors Vitrium’s timeless, formal aesthetic concept. Alongside the decorative aspect, this frame also fulfils a functional role and transforms precious moments in

the bathtub into a sensual ritual. This is the ideal space for bathroom accessories such as essential oils, care products, candles and a relaxing drink. The exquisite-looking satinmatt mineral material DuroCast®, also found in the matching washbasins of the range, creates an elegant overall picture.

EPITOMISING SENSUAL RITUALS The new bathtub range blends seamlessly into the overall concept of the range: Vitrium epitomises the sensual rituals that take place in the bathroom and sets the ambitious framework for sophisticated and contemporary bathroom culture. Combining the sleek Vitrium washbasins and the matching geometric bathroom furniture creates a bathroom that exudes warmth and cosiness. Q True to nature: the exquisite vanity surface made from quality oak extends an invitation to relax in the bathtub and enjoy an immersive bathing experience.

LUXE LIVING BATHROOMS ON TAP

Design before products On Tap helps you create curated spaces with intention Ask any interior designer where they start, and it won’t be with a bath or a tap. It starts with a design language. The most beautiful homes are rarely remembered for individual products. They’re remembered for spaces that feel effortless, balanced and timeless. hansgrohe, Vernis bathroom collection.

SETTING A CLEAR VISION That’s because professional designers don’t approach a bathroom or kitchen as a collection of purchases. Before selecting a single fitting, they establish the overall design language – a clear vision that guides every decision that follows. Only then do they begin curating products. Every bath, basin, tap, tile and accessory is selected because it contributes to the same architectural story. The result is a space where nothing feels out of place.

Home owners, however, often renovate differently. They fall in love with individual products, mixing styles, finishes and brands without considering how they’ll work together. Even premium products can lose their impact when they don’t belong to the same design vision.

On Tap has adopted the same philosophy as the world’s leading designers. The company’s curated collections bring together trusted local and international brands that complement one another, making it easier to create bathrooms and kitchens that feel cohesive, refined and built to last.

LUXE LIVING BATHROOMS VITRUVIUS DESIGN

Water considered Vitruvius’ Danube range brings

sophisticated detail into your spaces Some objects simply perform a function. Others shape the way a space feels. The Danube collection by Vitruvius is designed for the latter. Refined, architectural and quietly confident, its tapware and bathroom accessories bring a sense of order through clean lines, considered proportions and a restrained contemporary aesthetic. Nothing is added without purpose; nothing competes for attention.

IDEAL FOR ANY STYLE Named after one of Europe’s great rivers, Danube reflects movement with control: water guided through forms that are precise, balanced and intuitive to use. Contemporary without being driven by passing trends, the collection sits comfortably within a wide range of interiors, from minimal urban bathrooms to more layered and expressive spaces.

REFINED DETAILS A bathroom is experienced at close range. It is in the weight of a handle, the movement of water, the finish of a surface and the relationship between the tapware, accessories and surrounding materials. These details determine whether a room simply looks good or feels genuinely considered.

Danube has been created with this daily experience in mind, bringing visual clarity, dependable function and lasting relevance to one of the home’s most personal spaces. It is a collection for home owners, architects and interior designers who understand that good design does not need to announce itself loudly. It earns its place through proportion, performance and longevity.

WHERE ARCHITECTURE MEETS WATER Rooted in the design philosophy of Vitruvius Design, the Vitruvius Range captures the essence of form, function and beauty. Danube, Nemi, Tiber and Rubicon each reflect the Vitruvian principles of stability, utility and beauty. Designed and engineered to European standards, the tapware and accessories unite precise craftsmanship with timeless design – where architecture meets water.

LUXE LIVING BATHROOMS WOMAG

Golden Viola. Sculptural stone with dramatic character.

Rain Forest Green. Nature’s artistry, reimagined indoors.

Crimson Venato is a bold expression of colour, texture and timeless craftsmanship.

Statement bathrooms on the rise Elevate your bathroom with WOMAG The bathroom has evolved far beyond its purely functional roots. Today, it is one of the most considered spaces in the home – a place to unwind, recharge and reconnect. As home owners place greater emphasis on wellness and thoughtful design, materials have become central to creating spaces that feel both luxurious and enduring.

A SANCTUARY TO RESTORE BALANCE Natural stone and porcelain are increasingly being used to transform bathrooms into personal sanctuaries. Whether the dramatic movement of richly veined marble, the calming influence of nature-inspired tones, or the subtle texture of contemporary porcelain surfaces, these materials bring depth, character and permanence to a space.

Designers are moving away from overly decorative schemes in favour of material-led interiors, where surfaces become the focal point. Statement vanities, seamless wall cladding, textured finishes and sculptural forms create bathrooms that feel curated rather than fitted. The result? A space that not only performs beautifully, but also delivers a sense of atmosphere and escape.

Colour also plays a big role in bathroom design. While timeless whites and soft neutrals remain popular, deeper greens, warm earth tones and dramatic burgundy hues are emerging as favourites for those seeking individuality and impact. When paired with natural materials, these tones create interiors that feel both sophisticated and deeply personal.

BEAUTY AND BLISS WOMAG believes that great design begins with exceptional materials. From striking marble and quartzite to innovative porcelain surfaces, the company’s carefully curated collection allows home owners, architects and designers to create bathrooms that balance beauty, functionality and longevity.

The most memorable bathrooms are not defined by trends alone – they are defined by the materials that bring them to life. Q
