Whether the latest design fads interest you or not, finding your personal style is necessary for any major home project. Your remodeler or contractor will guide you through their process. However, deciding what you like is ultimately still your job. So, how do you decipher your kitchen, living room, or bathroom style? There are a lot of simple ways to get started; we recommend doing a little good old-fashioned research! You might begin by browsing magazines, showrooms, Houzz, Pinterest, or blogs like our own. If you’re embarking on a bathroom remodel soon, we’ve pulled together some of our favorite recent client projects! Take a look at their takes on the latest bathroom design trends below. [![11406-Louisiana-Ave-S-large-003-5-05-1500x1000-72dpi-1024x683.jpg](https://homecareincremodeling.com/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/11406-Louisiana-Ave-S-large-003-5-05-1500x1000-72dpi-1024x683.jpg)](https://homecareincremodeling.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/11406-Louisiana-Ave-S-large-003-5-05-1500x1000-72dpi.jpg) **Statement Soaking Tubs** Nothing makes an impression like a big beautiful bathtub. If you’re hoping to create a relaxing bathroom oasis, then an over-sized soaking tub is a design must! [![4528-Ewing-Ave-S-Minneapolis-large-001-5-01-1500x1000-72dpi-1024x682.jpg](https://homecareincremodeling.com/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/4528-Ewing-Ave-S-Minneapolis-large-001-5-01-1500x1000-72dpi-1024x682.jpg)](https://homecareincremodeling.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/4528-Ewing-Ave-S-Minneapolis-large-001-5-01-1500x1000-72dpi.jpg) **Over-sized Walk-In Showers** Another popular bathroom trend of the moment is over-sized tile walk-in showers. Short on space or not a bath lover? Then we suggest investing in a stunning spacious shower you’ll actually enjoy. [![8311-W-109th-St-Bloomington-MN-large-003-4-03-1500x1000-72dpi-1024x683.jpg](https://homecareincremodeling.com/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/8311-W-109th-St-Bloomington-MN-large-003-4-03-1500x1000-72dpi-1024x683.jpg)](https://homecareincremodeling.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/8311-W-109th-St-Bloomington-MN-large-003-4-03-1500x1000-72dpi.jpg) **Playful Tile Patterns** Bathroom design is all about tile right now. From classic subway tile to bright colors to big bold patterns, it’s a fantastic way to express your style. After all, tile is a foundational bathroom element – have fun with it! [![11406-Louisiana-Ave-S-large-005-1-07-1500x1000-72dpi-1024x683.jpg](https://homecareincremodeling.com/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/11406-Louisiana-Ave-S-large-005-1-07-1500x1000-72dpi-1024x683.jpg)](https://homecareincremodeling.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/11406-Louisiana-Ave-S-large-005-1-07-1500x1000-72dpi.jpg) **His and Hers Sinks** Double vanities and sinks seem to be an evergreen bathroom trend. We get it; they’re pretty and practical. Not only do they double counter space and storage, but they also look gorgeous and pulled together. [![9029-Windsor-Ave-Savage-MN-large-001-3-01-1500x1000-72dpi-1024x683.jpg](https://homecareincremodeling.com/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/9029-Windsor-Ave-Savage-MN-large-001-3-01-1500x1000-72dpi-1024x683.jpg)](https://homecareincremodeling.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/9029-Windsor-Ave-Savage-MN-large-001-3-01-1500x1000-72dpi.jpg) **Accessibility and Universal Design** The last bathroom concern we’re helping our clients with more and more is accessibility. If you’re planning to age in place, then making your home safe and easy to navigate matters, and is worth investing in. **Want More Help?** Looking for more advice or want to start the remodeling process?

Unlike paint colors or décor, many bathroom design decisions aren't easy to change later. Vanity dimensions, plumbing locations, shower layouts, lighting, storage, and electrical placement all become part of the room itself. When those details don't receive enough attention during planning, even high-quality materials and beautiful finishes can't compensate for a bathroom that doesn't function well.](https://homecareincremodeling.com/news/common-bathroom-design-regrets) [![Bathroom Features Worth Investing In](https://homecareincremodeling.com/hs-fs/hubfs/8.7-Bathroom-scaled.webp?width=500&height=500&name=8.7-Bathroom-scaled.webp) August 7, 2026 Bathroom Features Worth Investing In A bathroom remodel is about much more than replacing outdated finishes. The decisions you make during the design process influence how the space functions every morning, every evening, and long after construction is complete. While tile, cabinetry, and fixtures shape the appearance of the room, the features you incorporate into the design often have the greatest impact on comfort, convenience, and long-term satisfaction. The best investments don’t simply make the bathroom look more luxurious. They improve the way you experience the space every single day.](https://homecareincremodeling.com/news/bathroom-features-worth-investing-in) [![How to Create the Perfect Master Bathroom](https://homecareincremodeling.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/6_26_26-main-photo.jpg?width=500&height=500&name=6_26_26-main-photo.jpg) June 25, 2026 How to Create the Perfect Master Bathroom A master bathroom should feel like more than just another room in the home.

They also require the most cleaning and maintenance. Yet even with regular cleaning, many homeowners still feel like their bathroom never looks or feels as clean as it should. You may clean the countertops, scrub the shower, wipe down fixtures, and mop the floor, only to wonder why the bathroom still feels worn, cluttered, or less fresh than expected. While regular cleaning is important, the issue is not always related to cleaning habits. In many cases, the condition, design, and age of the bathroom itself can make it increasingly difficult to maintain a clean appearance.](https://homecareincremodeling.com/news/why-your-bathroom-never-truly-feels-clean) [![This transparent Logo](https://homecareincremodeling.com/hs-fs/hubfs/This%20transparent%20Logo.png?width=264&height=140&name=This%20transparent%20Logo.png)](https://homecareincremodeling.com) Clear Process.
