Modern Design Trends
Modern design tends to be used when you want a mid-century look. Modern styles tend to deal a lot with darker color tones like grays, blacks, browns and even blacks, but they also deal a lot with natural, high quality or synthetic materials. A person that like modern design styles probably won’t like other styles like art centric or traditional, since these tend to deal with bland colors or overly bold colors. Modern is sort of right in the middle of the two. You are going to see a lot of aesthetically pleasing products and features, as well as features that are functional and yet very efficient in what they need to be used for. Modern bathrooms are also a great option because you can either have a smaller room or a larger room and it can work in both instances. Other features to consider when it comes to bathroom remodeling are things like angular or architectural designs, curvy lines, stainless steel, porcelain tiles and to put it mildly - lots of organization to keep it looking clean and clutter free. If you really love the modern look, but you need a few ideas on how to go about this, continue reading below.
Free Standing Tubs
One of the best ways to showcase a modern bathroom is by offering a room that has really clean lines, looks crisp and brand new, and luxurious. One way to go about this is by designing a bathroom that is open in design. You should be using one of your walls, preferably a back wall as a background to showcase the best feature in the bathroom; the freestanding tub. Freestanding tubs are becoming more and more popular these days. They primarily come in a white porcelain color and style and they are very clean looking. The back wall in which the tub is standing in front of should be considered the focal point of the room or the accent wall if you will. Consider painting it a very bold, but modern color such as charcoal black. Add in a few other modern features such as a wood vanity in oak or walnut, and a freestanding white sink, alongside a clean large format tile floor in white and you have created an amazing using modern style and class.
Making a Small Bathroom Larger

Modern Meets Industrial
Modern and Industrial go really well together, because they both deal with about the same color hues, about the same types of materials, and it’s all about creating clean lines, being organized, and adding in a sense of style that almost anyone could enjoy. For a modern meets industrial bath, consider creating a custom vanity made from Birchwood - you can even find some wood builders that will create the bottom of the vanity out of a tree trunk from the wood. Add in a copper basin that is freestanding, black metal freestanding knobs that come out of the wall above the basin and add in a few features like coppery wood on the wall behind the vanity, a black wooden floor, stainless steel framed shower with clear glass and a bathtub freestanding and you have the perfect match!
