9 luxurious, modern bathroom design ideas for 2024/25

If you’re renovating your bathroom you’ll want as much inspiration as you can get. To get you started we’ve rounded up 9 of our favourite luxurious, modern bathroom trends that we’ve seen at industry shows and in high-end homes around the world.

1. Freestanding tubs

Nothing says luxury quite like a freestanding bath tub. They’re usually roomier than standard tubs, perfect for long luxurious soaks and they’re a great way to add an interesting sculptural feature to your space. Browse Abey’s range of freestanding baths.

2. Incorporate texture

Modern bathroom renovations can have a tendency to look and feel a little cold and characterless. But yours doesn’t need to. Simply take this chance to incorporate texture into your space. You could, for example, choose live-edge wood for your vanity, use imperfect tiles throughout your bathroom or bring your space to life with plants. It’s all about adding personality.

3. Frameless mirror walls

A trend we’ve increasingly seen in small bathrooms is the frameless mirror wall. To achieve this look you’ll need to have a mirror custom fitted to the entire wall space above your vanity. This creates the illusion of space, which feels super luxurious in small bathrooms.

4. Double showers

Sick of queuing for the shower in the morning? Why not install a double shower. We’ve been seeing these in several luxury bathrooms recently – they’re great for busy couples and feel like the height of luxury. Browse Abey’s range of shower heads.

5. Embrace wood

Incorporating wood is a great way to add a little warmth and life to your bathroom. We’ve seen open wooden shelving, polished wood vanities, and even sinks carefully carved out of a large block of oak. These natural touches will add personality to any bathroom space.

6. Go terrazzo

Terrazzo is an Italian technique of shattering colourful stone then binding it together into a tile with cement or other binding materials. This creates a tile that bursts with colour and random patterns, which we think is the ultimate modern, luxurious bathroom look.

7. Bring the outside in

Nothing turns a bathroom into a luxurious spa-like space better than a huge window bringing the outside in. This is especially true if your bathroom looks out into greenery or water. If you install a window just make sure you think about privacy and how it’ll complement your space.

8. Get artsy

Modern bathrooms often have a few unexpected elements. We’ve seen carpeted areas, occasional chairs, rugs and hanging art. So don’t be afraid to get a little creative when you’re finishing off your bathroom – you may not have space for furniture, but most bathrooms can be livened up with colourful artwork.

9. Go Australian

Timeless quality and supporting local businesses never goes out of style. That’s why it’s worth considering sticking to Australian brands that you can trust when completing your next bathroom renovation.
