When I lived in very cold cities, I found warm colors make me feel more comfortable in areas such as bathrooms and colors such as pure white made me feel colder, the opposite occurred when I have lived in very hot cities, I didn't prefer very warm colors but preferred cool colors such as pure white as it gave me a more cooling feeling
The word dated is a very much over used word. The bottom line is choosing colors where the owners feel comfortable with their choices as they will be spending far more time living there than visitors usually.

I loved how you produced this video! It was succinct, practical, and not snobbish!! The only trend I disagree with using is the free standing tub. We just did a remodel and were shocked at the cost of those tubs, along with the additional fussy plumbing fixtures, plumber labor, tile costs around the tub, and they need so much water to even fill them halfway. I have also tried to bathe little kids in a friend’s tub and they are super impractical for that! We opted for a simple, more typical tub that we enclosed on the outside with tile. No regrets! 🛀🏼 😊

Oooh, perfect timing! The bathroom tear-out of an extremely sturdy installation in my 1954 home is happening now. It's like a bunker; no hurricane could budge this house! ❤ I adore the "timeless" perspective, so neutral tones seem best. Gotta love a pop of color, though & fun to switch that around for an easy, fresh look. Your video is such a welcome addition to my research. Thank you & all the best to you from Virginia Beach, Virginia 🎉

I have had a Wall Hung Vanity in my master bathroom for 12 years. I love it and have had dozens of compliments on it. I also have a linen closet in my bathroom as most folks! So I don't rely of just my vanity for storage, even though it gives me a very good amount. I am getting ready to do an update of paint, a new floor and I will paint my Wall Hung Vanity a new deep color to contrast my light color walls. In addition, you say "Don't install a wall hung vanity, you'll regret it. It's just a trend." Well, I've had mine for 12 years with a beautiful 6-inch-thick white ceramic top that cleans so well and easy. I included a beautiful single hole chrome faucet, which I will replace with another chrome faucet. I DO NOT agree that wall hung vanities are a trend. Another point, do you even realize after you tell everyone do not install wall hung vanities, at least 1/2 of all the photos of bathrooms you were kind enough to share with us were All Wall Hung Vanities! At the end, with your 3 tips, also FULL of Wall Hung Vanities!!! I think you should review all of your content before advising the WRONG ADVICE to the public!

I feel like timeless is just a fancy work for boring. Who actually wants to live in a boring greyge (grey beige) bathroom with boring vanities and boring counters? Following trends is a bad idea, but design can be creative and elegant without being dull.

thanks for the video. i always learn something when i watch various content providers. i just remodeled my small windowless bathroom. i went with neutrals, but decided to use light green ceramic vertical tiles in the walk in shower. looks great! i also went with a floating vanity and so far, so good!!

Also, listen to your house. We live in an 1892 Dutch Colonial. I wanted pale, pale, pale because that is what I like. My house did not. It looked awful. She demands more drama than I am normally comfortable with but now I'm listening to her, she's gorgeous.

My favorite thing to put into a homeowner designed bathroom is a wall mounted toilet. Cleaning around a floor mounted toilet is the hardest and least rewarding job of maintaining a bathroom.

[LisaSchaefer]

I actually agree with you. We did the research on tubs before we installed and good thing we did. We would have put in a jetted tub, but realized the ongoing maintenance was an issue. I got rid of open shelving the previous owner did because it was cheap and it looked terrible. We put in lovely cabinets and have no regrets. We were careful to stay away from slick bathroom tiles on the floors - my father broke his tail bone in a slip and fall accident because of that stupid design.

This is actually a pretty useful video. If you are remodeling, def follow her advice.

[anjea]

You offer wonderful information! Thank you so much. For me, I use my jetted tub nearly everyday. Never had any problems with it.

I agree 100% on the hanging cabinets.... it's less space to store items AND it's more floor to clean. same with those 'open shelves' underneath a sink - just more to dust. I will likely have a shiny floor (we are preparing to renovate the master bath) .... hubby and I always wear house shoes so slipping is very unlikely.... and, I want shiny (porcelain - yes) walls in the shower to match. I will consider a duller floor, but we are likely to go shiny to match. our guest bathroom has a nice non-slip floor for guests. :-)

Grey is trite and outdated. Every renovation on tv has used grey!!!! I hate grey floors, walls and accessories.

[carolinejohnson]

Every bathroom in the video was bigger than my living room! I think people go over the top with everything. You don't need two sinks or more than one showerhead. I can't think of anything worse than someone brushing their teeth and spitting next to me! 😝 I like to keep everything hidden in cupboards and just have bubble bath in a posh bottle and shower gel on the bath and hand soap on the sink. Neutral and classic is best, not gimmicky. 😊

Several good ideas here, but I wish there was some discussion about colors that are flattering to skin tones, rather than show trendy colors and modern lines. I saw a few examples of warmer whites, but no discussion on how a paint color can make you feel better about who you see in your mirror every morning! Gray isn’t one of them!

[CB-vgwq]

Very good advice. I have polished nickel and LOVE it. But, it is not inexpensive (unfortunately). Personally, if on a budget. I would go for chrome. The plating process is much better then in the past and the fixtures are much less expensive. Be careful with large format tiles, they can have a commercial appearance. I prefer 8x10, 10x12 etc sizes. They are large enough to make cleaning easy but still create a personal feel. I agree with other commenters about grey colored bathrooms. Opt instead for a warm griege tone. The mix of grey and beige is a modern look without the cold look of a true grey.

[hejiranyc]

Chrome is an absolute PASS for me. It screams "cheap" and "basic" to me.

All gray floors with gray tile and gray walls are out, and always were ugly all together! But a white and gray bathroom is timeless!
