In this article, we will give you a series of ideas to update your bathroom and achieve a truly modern style.
How to decorate a bathroom
Interior design trends also influence bathrooms as well as other rooms in the house. In any renovation or new construction, it is very important to assess the functionality of its elements, as well as the décor.
Decorative style
The pandemic and its many lessons gave us an appreciation of the importance of spaces that generate well-being, comfort and calm.
There are numerous decorative styles for the bathroom: Nordic, rustic, minimalist, urban, stately, boho, vintage and retro, among others. To get the décor you are looking for, it is important to make a good choice of the tiles that are going to clad and floor the bathroom. At Apavisa, we have various models of porcelain tile and ceramic claddings, which recreate different styles.
One of the trends for modern bathroom décor in 2022 is to use white tiles. You can learn more at this link, where we share several bathroom ideas for white tiles.

Order and elements of the bathroom
To generate a feeling of comfort and well-being in the bathroom, it is essential to keep it clean and tidy.
The use of drawers, hangers or baskets will be essential for this personal space in the house to be a place of calm. Accessories and decoration for the bathroom, in general, are essential to creating the desired atmosphere.
Likewise, how modern shower tiles, the bathroom wall tiles or the type of bathroom flooring are combined are an important choice to also determine the order of your bathroom.
In this article, we would like to share several ideas on how to combine tiles in the toilet to get a bathroom fit for the pages of a magazine → Tile combinations for bathrooms; creativity without limits.
Bathroom color and lighting
Depending on the color you want to use in your bathroom, you will be able to create a type of climate. For example, a trend this year in bathroom decoration is to use small special mirrors with creative shapes that focus attention. Also, for modern small bathrooms, you can use a colorful or hydraulic-style cladding on one of the walls or in the shower.

Porcelain tiles and their types of finishes for the bathroom
As we have mentioned before, the bathroom is a space for rest and relaxation and an area we use a lot. It is also essential to know the technical specifications of the tiles in terms of cleaning and types of anti-slip since it is one of the most humid areas of the house.
At Apavisa, we have many models that are ideal for use in the bathroom due to their technical characteristics and non-slip finishes.
Decoration ideas for modern bathrooms
We present some 2022 tile trends for modern bathrooms with bath-tubs, showers, with combinations in grey, white and black tones; and above all, many inspiring modern bathroom images to make your bathroom renovation or new construction a success.
Small bathrooms with modern designs
Getting a modern designer bathroom is not a matter of dimensions, but style. Ceramic material is the best choice for flooring and cladding a bathroom due to its technical and functional characteristics.
We have already commented on the use of white ceramic tiles as the protagonist in small bathrooms due to the feeling of spaciousness they convey. However, the mix of materials, finishes and colors in small bathrooms can also create a unique and personal style.
