Bathroom trend 2026: Less but better – Design your bathroom your way
Design your bathroom your way
Where bathrooms once consisted mainly of standard products with fixed dimensions, today’s focus is on flexibility. More and more manufacturers allow you to create a bathroom that suits your needs. While not everything is fully bespoke, you can choose from a wide range of materials, colours and layouts.
The Pura collection by Antonio Lupi is a great example. Choose a vanity unit with one, two or three drawers, a single or double basin, an integrated basin or one of six countertop basins. The possibilities are almost endless.
The Luxus vanity, featuring a handcrafted Dzignstone® Solid Surface surround, is equally customisable. In addition to white, it is now also available in a soft, warm Pergamon finish. Select the number and position of your basins and personalise the drawer fronts with melamine, matt lacquer, wood veneer or the same finish as the surround.
Create the perfect shower
The same trend is visible in the shower. Vigour shower collections give you complete freedom to create the shower that suits you best. With or without a rain shower, round or square, black or chrome – the choice is yours.
IXMO by Keuco also fits perfectly into this trend. This modular shower system starts with a thermostat or single-lever mixer, which you can then expand with the functions you need, such as a hand shower, overhead shower, diverter or shut-off valve. The result is a shower that perfectly matches both your preferences and the available space. IXMO showers are available exclusively at FACQ.
Smart solutions that make the most of every centimetre
Some products go even further and are truly made to measure, such as the First hand wash basin by Clou. It can be produced to fit perfectly between two walls, making it ideal for a compact guest toilet or a small bathroom where every centimeter matters.
The finishing touches also influence how spacious a bathroom feels. The Invisible Disco and Quattro shower drains by Carrodrain are tiled with the same material as the floor, keeping technical elements completely out of sight. The result is a sleek, seamless look that makes the room appear larger.
Less space, more possibilities
As you can see, Less but Better isn’t about compromising on comfort or luxury. It’s about making smarter use of the space you have. Thanks to extensive configuration options and intelligent solutions that adapt to your home, a smaller bathroom no longer means making compromises. With the right choices, you can create a bathroom that is comfortable, practical and perfectly suited to both your home and your personal style.
