Bathroom Design 2023: A Waterhouse Year in Review

Posted on December 15, 2023

Bathroom Design 2023:  A Year in Review

As Waterhouse bids farewell to 2023, it's time to take a stroll through bathrooms of the past year and explore the trends that made a splash (and a few that fizzled out, too.)

From shower doors to tile choices, wall colors to vanity styles, the world of bathroom design saw some exciting shifts.  Let’s check out the highs and lows of bathroom trends we saw in 2023.

In with the New:  Shower Door Elegance

Goodbye, textured glass:  Hello, clear!

While textured glass options remain a top choice for homeowners who are looking for an elegant, yet private, shower space, the trend has certainly been going toward Clear glass. Textured glass options took a backseat, making room for the sleek look of clear glass shower doors. Homeowners embraced the minimalist aesthetic, creating a sense of openness and spaciousness in their bathrooms. It's all about letting the light in and making a statement with the simplicity of design!

Black is the new Oil Rubbed Bronze

Move over, traditional Oil Rubbed Bronze finishes! 2023 saw the rise of Matte Black hardware and accessories, adding a touch of modern luxury to bathroom spaces. The bold contrast against light tiles or white walls became the go-to choice for those seeking a contemporary and edgy look. Matte Black complements many design styles and colors and is a great choice for a modern and sleek bathroom.

Tile Tales:  Patterns and Textures

Terrazzo takes center stage.

Terrazzo, the composite material consisting of chips of marble, quartz, granite, and glass, emerged as the darling of tile choices in 2023. From floors to shower walls, the playful and eclectic patterns of terrazzo injected personality and a touch of nostalgia into bathroom designs. It's the perfect blend of classic and contemporary. With the variety of color and pattern options, Terrazzo can virtually fit in any bathroom and can blend with nearly any design style, making it a delightfully versatile choice! Many Terrazzo tiles and surfaces are not just beautiful, but also sustainable, as they can be created with upcycled materials. Even more so a reason to keep this trend going!

Hexagons, hexagons…as far as the eye can see!

Say goodbye to traditional square tiles, and hello to hexagons! Hexagonal tiles stole the spotlight, creating visually stunning patterns and adding a dynamic element to bathroom floors and walls. The versatility of hexagons allowed for endless design possibilities, making them a favorite among those looking to make a bold statement.

Color Chronicles:  Bold Choices and Serene Retreats

Back to Nature:  Earthy Tones Reign

2023 embraced nature-inspired color palettes, with earthy tones like warm greens, soothing browns, and deep blues, as well as the popular “millennial beige” dominating bathroom walls. These colors not only create a calming atmosphere but also seamlessly connect the indoor space with the outside world. A trend that is truly “Down to Earth”!

Matte is Marvelous

Glossy finishes took a step back as matte surfaces took the lead. Matte tiles, matte paint, matte vanities – the lack of shine added a touch of sophistication and muted elegance to bathroom designs.

Maximalism Redefined

In the dynamic landscape of bathroom design, 2023 ushered in a new era of modern maximalism, which stands in complete contrast to the also trending earthy tones and natural designs. Modern maximalism is bold and wild, but also balanced. Statement walls, unique designs, colorful artwork, and mixed textures and patterns are turning bathrooms into vibrant works of art without overwhelming the senses. Strategic color blocking became the artful technique of the year, allowing for harmonious contrasts and intentional design choices. The luxurious metallic accents in gold and brass fixtures added opulence, while bold geometric patterns injected visual interest without compromising the overall sense of a retreat. Modern maximalism in the bathroom is all about making a purposeful statement with finesse, proving that bold choices can coexist seamlessly with tranquility.

Going, going…. GONE: Paint colors to say Adios to in 2024

Say goodbye to all those neutral shades of gray.  They’ve been the go-to neutrals for so long that they’re becoming tired.  Clients are ready for a change.  More color, more texture, just MORE EVERYTHING!

Also on their way out? Red, orange, pink, and stark white.

Some good swaps?

Red becomes a burgundy accent.

Orange becomes a creamy peach (like Pantone’s Color of the Year for 2024:  Peach Fuzz.)

Pink might work in a small powder room as an accent but should probably be left to more youthful spaces (like your kid’s bedroom!)

Stark white morphs into more natural tones and warm earthy hues.

New for 2024?

Deep earth tones like terracotta and moody forest core-inspired picks that include rich, deep greens.  We’re also looking forward to an influx of coastal-inspired blues, from light pastels to bold teals.

Mirror, Mirror on the wall:  Unique Reflections

Custom shapes and sizes

The era of cookie-cutter rectangular mirrors and bulky medicine cabinet mirrors is officially over. Homeowners in 2023 opted for custom-shaped mirrors, embracing circles, ovals, arches, and asymmetrical designs to add a touch of individuality and artistic flair to their bathrooms.

Smart Mirrors reflect the Future.

Say hello to mirrors with a brain! Smart mirrors featuring built-in LED lighting, temperature displays, and even integrated music systems became the ultimate bathroom accessory for those who wanted a touch of tech in their daily routines.

Vanity Visions:  Styles and Storage Solutions

Floating Vanities elevate the space.

The floor is no longer the limit for vanities. Floating vanities not only provide a contemporary aesthetic but also create a sense of openness, making even the smallest bathrooms feel more spacious. Depending on the interior design style, this trend is often paired with beautiful and elaborate woven baskets, wire baskets or other open storage solutions below the vanity. It adds texture and personality to the bathroom, making it a top choice for homeowners in 2023!

Open Shelving Takes Over

Closed cabinets are so last year. If you have the space, open shelves with minimal clutter are the new go-to. Open shelving gained popularity by offering a stylish solution for displaying towels, decorative items, and even a touch of greenery. It's the perfect way to combine form and function in your bathroom.

In the ever-evolving world of bathroom design, 2023 was a year of embracing individuality, exploring unique textures, and breaking free from traditional norms. As we step into the future, let's carry forward the lessons of the past year and continue to transform our bathrooms into personal sanctuaries that reflect our style and personality.

Here's to a year of innovation and endless possibilities in bathroom design!

The Waterhouse team will be here whenever you are ready to create your new spaces for the New Year!

Waterhouse bath & kitchen studio is proud to announce that it has been awarded the Greater Toledo Choice Award for Best Charitable Event

Posted on December 06, 2023

Waterhouse bath & kitchen studio is proud to announce that it has been awarded the Greater Toledo Choice Award for Best Charitable Event for its innovative and impactful World Toilet Day Painted Toilets 2023 initiative. The award was accepted on behalf of Julie Williams, Senior Showroom Sales Specialist, and Maren Tregillis, Showroom Sales Specialist, at the Home Builders Association (HBA) of Greater Toledo Casino Night Annual Banquet on Thursday November 30th, 2023.

World Toilet Day, celebrated annually on November 19th, aims to raise awareness about the global sanitation crisis and inspire action towards achieving universal access to safe and sustainable sanitation. In line with this mission, Waterhouse organized a unique and engaging event that not only brought attention to the critical issue of sanitation but also showcased the community's creativity and commitment to making a difference.

The World Toilet Day Painted Toilets 2023 event invited local artists, schools, and community members to transform ordinary toilets into vibrant works of art. These creatively decorated toilets were then displayed at our showroom where the community could vote in-person or via Venmo @waterhousebks for $1 per vote. All proceeds raised are donated to Water.org, a non-profit organization dedicated to solving the global water crisis through innovative solutions and access to safe water and sanitation, empowering communities to build a sustainable and water-secure future.

"We are truly honored to receive the Greater Toledo Choice Award for Best Charitable Event," said Amy Siders, Waterhouse bath & kitchen studio’s Showroom Manager. "I love that a seemingly silly and inconsequential idea – painting toilets – has become the little project that could!  The outpouring of support that we have received from our vendors, our artists, our local schools, our customers, and our community has been overwhelming.  It’s humbling to think that the Waterhouse team has been able to bring national attention to this global issue, armed with only our imaginations, 25 donated toilets, and the generosity of our artists – with their time, their materials, and their talent.  I am already planning for Waterhouse World Toilet Day 2024 – it can’t come soon enough!”

The Greater Toledo Choice Awards, organized by the HBA of Greater Toledo, celebrate outstanding contributions to the community across various categories. Waterhouse's World Toilet Day Painted Toilets 2023 event stood out for its unique approach to advocacy and its ability to engage the community in a meaningful dialogue about sanitation and hygiene.

This Affordable Swap Instantly Upgrades Your Bathroom (Even if You Rent)

Posted on September 18, 2023

This Affordable Swap Instantly Upgrades Your Bathroom (Even if You Rent)

It's a total myth that you have to spend a lot to change the look of your space.

Not quite ready for a full bathroom re-model? 

Start with your bathroom faucet!

You might be dealing with something like this...

Or this...

Wouldn't it be SO much better if you could swap that out for THIS???

With the right fixture and a bit of know-how, you can replace your bathroom faucet for an instant upgrade. If a new faucet is the DIY project you never knew you needed, Waterhouse bath & kitchen studio can help with that!

First, you should know some basic tips for choosing the right faucet.

You'll need to determine whether your sink or countertop has one, two, or three holes.

That will help you understand which type of faucet to buy.

Here's what you'll need to check...

Do you have a single hole?

Or a 4-inch center set?  That's just a fancy way of saying three holes that are close together.

Or you might need an 8-inch widespread faucet.

Once you've figured out what kind of faucet you NEED, now it's time to figure out what style you WANT.

Waterhouse has an entire section of faucets at varying price points, ranging in style from modern and sleek to traditional. The more refined styles look great in bathrooms with a contemporary, minimal aesthetic, and the models with soft curves look amazing in bathrooms with a farmhouse or rustic look. And don't even get us STARTED on the number of finish choices...

Here’s how the Kohler RIFF collection can change your bathroom’s look in Matte Black:

Single-handle

Center set

Widespread

Or a more modern look? In Vibrant Brushed Moderne Brass, perhaps?

Kohler Taut Single-handle

Kohler Taut Center set

Kohler Taut Widespread

Need even MORE inspiration?

How about this?

Or this?

Or even this?

This weekend DIY project might seem daunting, but if you take it slow and read the directions, it’s super-easy!

And if you rent and are worried about your landlord making a fuss, simply keep the old faucet and reinstall it when you leave. Renting shouldn’t stand in the way of enjoying the bathroom you have always dreamed of. 

Even if it’s temporary.

Let Waterhouse help you make your home (and a rental CAN be your home) a Waterhouse.

Mirror, mirror on the wall...

Posted on September 22, 2023

Mirror, Mirror on the wall…

You may think you know the rest of the storybook line, but this sentence can actually be completed in a few different ways:

Who’s the most functional of them all?

Who’s the prettiest of them all?

Who offers the most storage of all?

Waterhouse offers mirrors and medicine cabinets that offer task lighting, hidden outlets and USB charging ports, magnification mirrors, shelves and organizers, beauty, and some really big “wow” factors.

A medicine cabinet plays a leading role in your daily routine while adding style to your space. 

Choosing a medicine cabinet doesn’t always get the same thoughtful consideration that other bathroom components might.

Let Waterhouse guide you through the process of planning for, choosing, purchasing, and installing a medicine cabinet (or mirror.) We’ll help you find the right cabinet, with the right style and function for your bathroom space.

Before:  Pendants casting shadows in a too-dark bathroom.

After:  Lighted, mirrored cabinets cast an even glow, uncluttering the space physically and visually.

THINGS TO CONSIDER FIRST:

1. Are you designing a powder room where storage isn’t a major concern? If so, you might opt for a simple mirror instead of a medicine cabinet with storage.
2. Do you need a primary storage space to pair with a pedestal sink or to add extra storage for items you use every day?
3. What will you be storing in your bathroom? Large bottles? Small items that get lost in the clutter?
4. Are you able to cut into your bathroom wall to install a recessed cabinet? If not, the Waterhouse team can help you find the perfect surface mount cabinet or a simple mirror.
5. What is the lighting like in your bathroom? How does lighting affect your room’s aesthetic? What role does it play in the way you use the bathroom for grooming?

Medicine cabinets come in a variety of sizes and installation types to match the scale and structure of your space.

Here’s how to measure the area accurately and ensure the proper fit ahead of your medicine cabinet installation.

MEASURE YOUR SPACE

1. Measure the width of your vanity – your medicine cabinet should be narrower or the same with as the vanity.
2. To determine the height, measure the distance between your lights and faucet. Choose a medicine cabinet size that provides clearance above the faucet and below the lights.

Installation Type

Now you know what size you need, but how do you want to install your new medicine cabinet?

Surface-mount cabinets mount flush with your wall, meaning there is no cutting required. Side kits are available in the color or finish of your choice so you can create a more polished look.

Recessed medicine cabinets install between the studs in your wall, offering a sleek, flattened look. You’ll need to cut into the wall to install and build the cabinet framework.

Other design considerations:

Beveled edges add polished elegance and design interest.

Mirrors with a flat edge offer crisp lines and precise angles to keep things simple.

Kohler's Verdera mirror and medicine cabinet family is a one stop shop for completing the grooming area in the bathroom space. 30 mirror and medicine cabinet options in 12 sizes ranging from 15" to 40" in length is just a glimpse of how versatile the collection is. With elegant design, easy installation, and thoughtful features and functions, the Verdera collection is sure to meet your needs.

Features and Function

Thoughtful storage options: Kohler Verdera non-lighted medicine cabinet

Verdera non-lighted medicine cabinets feature:

• Wall or recessed mounting ability with necessary hardware included.
• Adjustable 3x magnifying or flat mirror on inside of door.
• Two to three (depending on size) adjustable tempered-glass shelves for enhanced storage capability.
• Slow close doors to prevent slamming (non-slow close medicine cabinets also offered).
• Mirrored interior.
• Optional side kits for surface-mount installation (sold separately.)

Verdera Lighted Medicine Cabinets have all the same features of non-lighted Verdera Medicine Cabinets plus pivoting side panels allowing light to be directed exactly where needed.

VERDERA LIGHTED MEDICINE CABINET – available in 4 sizes

MAXSTOW LIGHTED MEDICINE CABINET -- available in 6 sizes

VERDERA LIGHTED MIRROR – available in 4 sizes

Verdera lighted mirrors feature:

• 3 different size options (LxW | 24"x33", 34"x33", and 40"x33".)
• Anodized aluminum construction with a durable rustproof and chip-resistant finish.
• Integrated LED bulbs have an estimated life expectancy of 59,000 hours. That's approximately an 18-year lifespan, or 3 years longer than the average household LED bulb.
• Bulb brightness of 2200 lumens is nearly three times the household LED average and ensures consistent lighting with no hot spots or dark spots.

Have more storage than you need? 

Don't need additional task or ambient lighting?

Are you drawn to a simpler, more versatile mirror?

Kohler’s Essential Collection is available in three silhouettes and a range of dynamic finishes.

Round. Capsule. Rectangle. Arch.

Wood. Metal.

So. Many. Possibilities.

Moderne Brushed Gold. Polished Chrome. Brushed Nickel. Matte Black.

The possibilities are endless!

The best part? 

These framed mirrors can fit anywhere.

Hallways. Entryways. Dining rooms. Bedrooms.

Add a touch of sophistication and character to any part of your home.

Mirrors aren't just household items that propel fairytales forward.

Or just for looking at yourself.

They're for:

Lighting. Storage. Reflection. Magnification. Art. Beauty. Expression.

Let Waterhouse help you express yourself.

Our toilet is smarter than your toilet...

Posted on September 18, 2023

Our toilet is smarter than your toilet…

Usually, Waterhouse tends to avoid bragging – we’re VERY modest – but this new addition to our showroom is worthy of at least a few bragging rights.

The NUMI 2.0 from Kohler.

This smart toilet combines unmatched design and technology to bring you the finest in personal comfort and cleansing.  Kohler’s most advanced toilet now offers personalized settings that let you fine-tune every option to your exact preferences:

Ambient colored lighting

Built-in audio speaker system

Heated seat

Hands-free opening and closing

And SO MUCH MORE!

A design that rivals any sculpture…

With technology that seems like magic, the Numi 2.0 smart toilet is the ultimate expression of personalized comfort and cleanliness.

Wireless Connectivity

With an integrated speaker and wireless connectivity, the Numi 2.0 lets you play your favorite music, listen to podcasts, or play the preprogrammed theme music.

You read that right.

Theme music.

Your bathroom trips now have a theme song.

Didn’t see THAT coming, did you?!

Customizable cleansing

Fully adjustable bidet functionality includes options for spray shape and position, water pressure and temperature, and pulsating or oscillating functionality.

This intuitive wall remote complements the Kohler Konnect app, bringing advanced control, efficiency, and convenience to your daily routine.  And with built-in Amazon Alexa, you can create your ideal environment using only your voice!

Self-Cleaning

Numi 2.0 uses UV light and electrolyzed water to automatically sanitize the stainless steel cleansing wand for unparalleled hygiene.

Not only is our toilet smarter than your toilet, but our toilet is also BRIGHTER, too…

So does your toilet do this?

Or this?

Or especially this?

Numi 2.0 is artfully crafted with five preset colored lighting and sound scenes. 

LED illumination lights your way for late night bathroom trips.

State-of-the-art, high-fidelity speakers provide premium sound to further enhance your bathroom experience.

Our toilet is GREENER than your toilet…

Numi 2.0 offers two flush options – 1.0 gpf or .80 gpf and has a power-save mode that monitors usage and adjusts heated seat settings to save energy.

And if THAT isn’t enough…

You may have thought that Waterhouse was the only showroom creative enough to paint toilets…

Remember our First World Toilet Day?

And our second World Toilet Day?

Kohler didn’t want to be left out of the fun, so there are now limited quantities of the Numi 2.0 available through the Kohler Artists Editions program.

I think we can all agree that not everyone needs a smart toilet.

Not everyone needs a painted toilet.

And not everyone needs a smart AND painted toilet.

The beauty of all this?

Waterhouse has simply beautiful white manual toilets.

We have gorgeous commodes in so many colors, with so many features – too many to list here.

It’s worth a trip into the Waterhouse showroom to check them all out.

It’s been said that you spend up to 7 years of your life on a toilet.

Shouldn’t those 7 years be comfortable, beautiful, AND smart?

Waterhouse thinks so.

9 Tips for a Quick Bathroom Refresh in a Weekend

Posted on September 12, 2023

Waterhouse knows that you’re busy.

Really busy.

You want everything to be beautiful, functional, easy, and fun.

We want that for you, too!

While we’re always on board to assist you with a new build or a major renovation, we also recognize that sometimes you just need a little change that brings a major “WOW” factor with it.

We’ve come up with nine easy things you can tackle (because ten things sounded like too much work!) – some in a few minutes, some in a few hours – to up the WOW without the cost and the stress that comes with a major reno.

1. Paint or Wallpaper

A fresh coat of paint can breathe new life into any room, and your bathroom is no exception. White and bright is a quick and easy choice to give your bathroom a classic, clean look, but it’s certainly not the only choice. White makes a great blank canvas for other updates and gives the bathroom a lighter, airy feel. Deeper shades like black, charcoal, or even jewel tones can bring an elegant flair to any bathroom. Wall color changes the entire mood of the bathroom with just a few strokes – it’s easy, inexpensive, and impactful!

2. Replace Light Fixtures

Task Lighting. Statement lighting. Accent Lighting. Safety lighting. There’s only so much space in a bathroom, so your lighting choices must be multi-taskers. You need to be able to set the mood for a romantic bubble bath, create a surgical space for precise splinter removal, illuminate the way through the dark for midnight bathroom visits – all with the same fixtures!

Lighted mirrors, lighted and mirrored medicine cabinets, sconces on either side of your vanity or hanging above, ceiling fixtures – the options are endless.

Let the lighting experts at Waterhouse help you “see the light.”

3. Deep Clean

Since you’re moving everything out of your bathroom to give those walls a facelift, now is the perfect time to give it a much-needed scrub. We know you’ve been watching those reels and TikToks about the bathroom deep cleans – try out your favorite tips and get your Mr. (or Mrs.) Clean on! Organize the beauty products, fold the towels, stock the cotton balls and swabs. Toss the frayed towels and anything else you don’t want or need.

Spring cleaning can happen in summer. And fall. And winter.

4. Change the Mirror

Small change = Huge impact! Mirrors add dimension and light to even the smallest spaces, so don’t be scared to add multiple mirrors.

Switching up the bathroom mirror, whether it be a huge, builder-installed wall-to-wall number with those little acrylic clips, an aging medicine cabinet, or anything that doesn’t bring you joy when you see it should be a top priority.

 Lighted mirrors? Metal-framed round, oval, capsule, or rectangular mirrors in finishes to match your fixtures? A wood frame with a beveled edge to match your painted vanity?

Waterhouse has hundreds of options, from basic to extraordinary!

5. Upgrade Storage Options

You don’t need a major renovation to add more storage to your space. Hang open shelves to display some pretty towels, unique perfume, or skincare bottles, cannisters of cotton swabs, or plants. Tired of the hand towel being wadded up on the counter? Add a towel ring. We can’t guarantee that the towel will get hung up, but at least the option has been made available. Nowhere to put a drinking glass or your toothbrush? We have accessories for that (some in up to 35 different finishes!)

 Towel bars (even heated ones!) and robe hooks, storage caddies for vanity drawers, flush mount or recessed medicine cabinets (some up to eight inches deep!), linen towers to match your vanity, over johns, and more.

We have storage options for every space, for every budget.

6. Change Bathroom Fixtures

This one is a no brainer. This is what Waterhouse was born to do!

Faucets, showerheads, hand showers, tub spouts, trim, drains, sinks, accessories – in every finish from Polished Chrome to Titanium to Moderne Brushed Bronze. The options are endless.

Let the Waterhouse team help you find the perfect jewelry for your space.

7. New Linens

Fresh, fluffy white towels never go out of style.

Small white washcloths rolled elegantly on a tray to replace that single hand towel shared by all?

A new shower curtain rod in any finish you desire.

A new bathmat – you know you need one…

There are a LOT of hard surfaces in a bathroom. Here’s where you add the texture, soften the edges, and up the luxury quotient. 

8. Add Plants

Even if you don’t have a green thumb, you can bring plants into your bathroom! Plants are an easy way to bring life and color to a small (or big) space. Some plants thrive in a room with artificial light, low light, and lots of bathroom humidity. Snake plants, ferns, and Chinese Evergreen can handle the ever-changing bathroom temperatures and low light. If your bathroom has bright indirect light, you can get a Begonia, Peace lily, or philodendron.

Bring life into your space. Literally.

Bring living things into your space.

9. Artwork

Who likes a blank, boring wall? Definitely not us!

Whether it’s a fun collage of small prints to add color and dimension or a dramatic large print that serves as a focal point for the entire space, this is where you add the personality to your bathroom.

Make tasteful and thoughtful choices – you spend at least seven years of your life in a bathroom, so you could be admiring this artwork for a LONG time…

OR you could let your new sink be the art…

The Waterhouse team can help you through 1, 2, 3, or all these steps.

Whether you’re planning a sledgehammer moment, or you just need a quick freshen, we’re here to help you check everything off your to do list.
