Grange Design, leading UK-based designers, manufacturers and specialist distributers for the bathroom industry explore how curvaceous design is creating new opportunities for the classic and contemporary bathroom space.
Clive Griffiths, Manager at Grange Design says, “Exuding comfort and a softer style aesthetic, curved and rounded bathroom products are contributing to several new trends in 2025, which all centre around flow and ambience. From shapely basin and bath taps with swan-neck spouts through to double-ended and corner bathtubs, circular hardware and accessories, products that offset the straight lines typically found in a bathroom are now top choices when embracing the curve.”
Here are some top tips from Grange Design, to help inspire your next curvy bathroom project:
BRASSWARE – The interplay between linear forms and curves is a key part of today’s bathroom schemes, so selecting the right brassware to anchor the overall scheme has never been more important. Given the range of options available for introducing curves across the basin, bath and shower area, be sure to consider the following product features so all design elements are in proportion:
1) Silhouette – Look out for ornate basin taps with strong curves to elevate plain white sanitaryware
2) Spout – Decide between a solitary spout on the wall or deck mounted mono mixer with sleek contours
3) Handles/controls – Pin wheel, capstan-style handles or solid brass levers with or without ceramic handles
SANITARYWARE – From elliptical basins and bathtubs to classic pedestal basins, rounded WCs and bidets, sanitaryware with rounded edges and soft lines continue to answer the trend for curvy bathroom interiors. When paired with the right choice of brassware, you’ll create a wash zone with enhanced flow and movement.
FURNITURE – Complement your choice of curvy basin and bath taps with round bathroom furniture and create a consistent look from brassware to unit! Whether you prefer the pared back contemporary look that you get from wall-mounted designs or more opulent classic feel with floor-standing options, bathroom vanities are now available in a wide range of styles, materials and finishes so you can ensure your curvy taps never look out of place.
ACCESSORIES – From circular mirrors and towel rings to rounded soap dishes and statement robe hooks, bathroom accessories will add an extra layer of form and function, and naturally emphasise your curvy interior. For something a little different, why not consider a curved tiled wall to make a feature of your shower area or round porthole window to introduce a quirky architectural feature!
For traditionally styled curvy bathrooms, Grange Design recommend either its Leonardo or Brunel Collection. Leonardo is a classic brassware collection known for its timeless qualities, which has remained popular for the last five decades due to its quirky yet classic design and heritage style proportions. The exclusive range of Brunel basin taps and bath/shower mixers are original by design and present a strong silhouette with distinct six spoke hand wheels and elegantly curved or low profile spout.
If you prefer the look of contemporary curves, then consider the Atlantic Collection by Grange Design, able to suit any style and size of bathroom space, and compatible with modern styles of bathtub, wash basin and shower. Take your pick from a range of curvaceous basin taps, bath/shower mixers, and complementary shower valves.
