Many of the bathrooms I come across as an editor are inspiring in so many ways, whether that be through colour, layout or pattern, but they still feel like bathrooms. I know you might be thinking, that's the point! But in 2026, bathroom trends are centred around making the space feel as cosy as your living areas, rather than a practical spot to wash.
The founder of Bert and May, Lee Thornley, has achieved just that. As the founder of a tile company, I was expecting big things in terms of how bathroom tile ideas are used around his home, but I wasn't expecting to find a warm, inviting space that feels more like a living room than a wash space.
