Houzz Inc., a platform for home remodeling and design, has released their 2023 U.S. Houzz Bathroom Trends Study. This report is comprised of nearly 2,000 homeowners who are amid, are planning or recently completed a bathroom renovation.
Here are the trends homeowners have been following this year:
Wood Replaces White
Wood is becoming the color of choice for vanities and cabinets in bathrooms. This option was chosen by 33% of participants, followed by white (29%), gray (13%) and blue (8%). However, white continues to be the most popular color for countertops and walls, both inside and outside of the shower.
Safe Flooring Options
An overwhelming number of owners replace their floors during a bathroom remodel (83%), and 33% of them chose nonslip floors outside of the shower. This is up 6 percentage points from last year. Other premium flooring options were waterproof material and radiant heating (31% and 29%, respectively).
Hidden Features
Medicine cabinets are working double-duty as storage and hiding utility features such as mirrors (37%), plugs (24%) and lighting (23%). The vast majority opted for a clean look, with 67% choosing a recessed mounting style.
Working with Professionals
Most homeowners chose to work with a professional during their bathroom renovation projects (86%). Cabinetmakers, interior designers, bathroom designers and architects were all hired more frequently this year (23%, 14%, 14% and 10%, respectively), while general contractors saw the most significant increase (53%, compared with 48% last year).
