2025 Bathroom Design Trends: What’s In—and What Lasts
If you're planning a bathroom renovation in 2025, you're in luck—this year’s design trends are all about comfort, wellness, and personality. But while trends come and go, your renovation should feel good today and ten years from now.
Here’s what we’re seeing in Ontario homes this year—and how to balance style with staying power.
Earthy, Warm Tones Are In
Say goodbye to sterile all-white bathrooms. In 2025, we're seeing more earthy greens, soft terracottas, and warm taupes. These tones add a natural, spa-like feel that’s especially welcome in long Canadian winters.
Texture & Natural Materials
From slatted wood vanities to tumbled stone floors, texture is everywhere. Matte finishes, handmade tiles, and brushed metals give spaces more soul. And the good news? These materials tend to age beautifully—especially when balanced with simple layouts.
Showers Steal the Spotlight
Walk-in showers continue to dominate. In fact, many clients are choosing to remove tubs altogether in favor of spacious, curbless showers with:
Frameless glass
Niche shelving
Rainfall or dual-head systems
Pairing these with linear drains and large-format tile adds that modern, clean-lined look without overwhelming the space.
Tubs as Sculptural Centerpieces
Freestanding tubs are still in—especially in larger ensuites. But the focus has shifted from clawfoot nostalgia to sleek, minimalist forms that act as both function and focal point.
Timeless vs. Trendy: Can You Have Both?
Absolutely. The best bathrooms borrow from both. Use timeless foundations—like neutral tile, classic plumbing lines, or simple cabinetry—and layer in trendy touches with lighting, mirrors, colors, or hardware.
This gives you the freedom to evolve your space without needing a full remodel five years down the road.
Final Thoughts
The best bathroom designs in 2025 feel clean, calming, and customized. Whether you're dreaming of a retreat or a refresh, the key is finding a style that works for your life—not just your Pinterest board.
