It’s here and don’t we all know it – 2025, the year of the three following big bathroom trends as dictated by our Head of Creative, Grazzie Wilson. One all about tone, the other about material and the final contender focusing on shape, here’s how you go about creating the coolest bathroom on the block. 

1. BATHROOMS BUT MAKE THEM DARK AND MAKE THEM EARTHY

“Neutral bathrooms are a forever trend, let’s be honest here, but in 2025 earthy goes dark, moody and mysterious,” opens Grazzie. 

Lean into this look in early 2025 and you’ll get to enjoy your dark and earthy bathroom in all its winter glory, but don’t go thinking it’ll be out of place come summer. A bathroom decked out in the darkest terrazzo, smoky marble or charcoal limestone will only give you a grounding and cooling place of retreat.



The Tiles to Do it With

Silk Screen Ceramic in Willow Cottage Tobacco: this colourway has depth to it without being too dark and is earthy in tone as much as its leafy motif. Go head to toe for a wallpapered look or take it halfway with a line of fine beading and then a complementary tile on top – white to lighten or stick with a rusted hue or mossy green for mood. 

Rialto Terrazzo Ca’Doro Honed: a true terrazzo and the darkest finish in the Rialto collection, this one can be laid on walls and floors if you want that all-over look (mega glamorous FYI). Or pair it with a rich burnt orange and your bathroom will feel seriously decadent. 

East Village Porcelain Quadrant Mosaic Oro: this newcomer to the collection for AW24 is a great one if you want the look and feel of a stone from the earth but prefer the practicality of porcelain. Echoing marble’s mottling and playing with light and shade, East Village gives you the dark side but the opportunity to retreat further into the shadows with a blackened wall tile – be brave because trust us, it’ll be beautiful. 

2. FORGET COLOUR-DRENCHING, 2025'S ABOUT STONE-DRENCHING

A few seasons back, the worlds of fashion and interiors were all about colour drenching but now the look and lingo has evolved. Instead of flooding your bathroom (not literally) with one sole colour, do it with one stone instead to make sure your material choice is seen and felt, big time. 

“We saw this trend coming a while back so have been gradually increasing tile sizes across our collections and adding to our finishes to make achieving this look all the easier,” explains Grazzie. “Whether you go with one tile all over, or one tile collection but in different scales and orientations, you can create a space that’s as minimalist or as maximalist as your heart desires. It’s got real legs this one.”



The Tiles to Do it With

Long Island: bringing this look to life was tastemaker Philippa Ross who took our Long Island marble tiles and ran wild in her zen bathroom. Hexagon mosaic for her floors, mini squares for her walls and then larger format marble slabs for the shower enclosure – yes, yes and yes. 

Palazzo Oro: upping the luxe factor is this bathroom by Simply Bathrooms who tiled up the walls and floor in the Palazzo Oro Marble but mixing things up with the Picket Mosaic elsewhere. Proof that there’s no such thing as too much of a good thing. 

East Village: East Village strikes again in the stone-drenching look too, only this time in a porcelain material, to give you the look of stone but without the upkeep. Win-win. This caramel-coloured bathroom will leave you drooling. Basketweave down low and then the heavily veined larger slabs running up the walls makes us long for them on the ceiling too. 

3. CREATE CURVES & MAKE WAVES

“Hear waves, think scallops? Me too,” says Grazzie. “But the trend for 2025 brings together the elements of curved edges and scalloped shapes, and when it’s done right, it looks so swish. 

This look creates such movement and added dimension, especially if you do it on the same surface. Break it up if that feels like too much by tiling a section of your bathroom in a tile that has a rise and fall pattern to it, and then bring in ribbed or matchstick tiles elsewhere – better still if they run over a curved wall.

The Tiles to Do it With

Bamboo (behind a bath): Designer @amyhuntinteriordesign used our Bamboo collection to create this gorgeously soothing bathroom. Amy chose our Bamboo Lustre Porcelain Mosaic in Avocado for the large curved feature wall behind the bath, extending all the way across from one side to the other. 

Bamboo (in a shower): if green isn’t your thing, but blush pink is, then this show-stopper designed by Caz Myers could be right up your street. Elevated with brass accents, this compact shower shows you that curves work even in the tiniest of spaces. 

Zen Reed (in a shower): if you want to lose the scalloped shape or any other rounded motif to create your curves, referencing instead the subtle look of a rounded matchstick tile and applying it to a curved surface, do as interior stylist Amy Adams of @no_ordinary_space did with our Zen Marble Reed Mosaic tiles that she’s flexed around her dreamy curved shower wall.

Zen Reed (around a bath): this monochromatic bathroom, also features our Zen Marble Reed Mosaic. The curved bath panel with the rounded contours of the mosaic is what this look is all about.

2025? It’s looking pretty peachy indeed…
