Want to undertake a bathroom or kitchen renovation but you don’t have the funds to pay a design expert to do the work for you? There is an endless amount of inspiration on the internet that covers more than just which shower taps to choose. Here are the hottest trends right now that designers are using to create their clients’ dream room.

Just because cheap tiles are white and square doesn’t mean that yours have to be. Your tiling choice can change the whole look and feel of your bathroom or kitchen. Mosaic tiles are really popular right now – be inspired by Mediterranean countries like Spain, Morocco, and Portugal; a colourful accent in the shower of backsplash can add a rich look to the space.

Smaller appliances are increasing in popularity due to their sleeker and space-saving look. A combo microwave/convention oven or a smaller, narrower dishwasher not only looks minimalist but it’s more energy efficient. On the topic of sleek, replace your mixer taps with touch-activated faucets – convenient when your hands are dirty while also saving you water.
