The bathroom as a modern sanctuary

The bathroom is no longer just a functional place. Today it is more of a space for retreat, calm and self-care. This change in the way we inhabit our homes has led the bathroom to become one of the most important environments when it comes to design. Aesthetics, layout and materials are designed to create a relaxing, durable and visually harmonious environment.
At Ascale, we believe that design starts at the surface. That’s why we offer large format sintered stone slabs that create bathrooms with visual continuity, uninterrupted, water, stain and age resistant. The perfect foundation for a modern sanctuary.

Warm colours that invite calm

One of the big trends for 2025 are warm tones: stone beige, earth, light greys. These colours, inspired by nature, bring serenity and light, ideal for starting and ending the day in a harmonious environment.
Combined with continuous surfaces such as those of our porcelain tiles, these tones make it possible to design timeless and elegant bathrooms. They also create the perfect canvas for incorporating other more contrasting decorative elements.

Contrasts with character: wood, black and gold

The play of contrasts is another of the pillars of modern design. The mixture of natural textures such as wood with modern touches -such as matt black or brushed gold taps- adds personality to the space without saturating it.
These combinations make it possible to maintain a minimalist aesthetic but with visual strength. Ascale’s finishes that imitate wood or natural stone in large format are perfect for achieving that balance between warmth and modernity.

Marble: a classic that reinvents itself

Marble never goes out of fashion. It is synonymous with luxury, elegance and timelessness. In 2025 we will see it combined with contemporary elements: minimalist taps, warm lighting and metallic profiles that update it without taking away its prominence.
Ascale offers a wide range of finishes inspired by iconic marbles such as Calacatta or Marquina, with the advantage of being lighter, more resistant and sustainable than natural stone.
Marble, besides being an elegant and timeless material, stands out for its versatility. Its application is not only limited to floors or walls: nowadays it is also used to cover wardrobes, worktops, washbasin furniture and even in decorative details such as niches or built-in shelves. This ability to adapt to different surfaces makes it possible to create coherent and sophisticated spaces, where each element forms part of the same aesthetic narrative.

Space management: functionality without compromising on design

Designing a modern bathroom is not only about choosing good materials, but also about optimising space for comfort, flow and clean visual style. Here are some of the trend-setting solutions that completely transform the bathroom experience:

Built-in niches
Recessed niches have become a key solution for maintaining the aesthetics of the bathroom without sacrificing practicality. Recessed into the wall, they allow you to store everyday products – such as gels, shampoos or creams – in a discreet and accessible way, eliminating the need for bulky furniture or external shelves. Moreover, as they are covered with the same material as the rest of the bathroom, they provide visual continuity.

Two washbasins: shared comfort
Including two washbasins in the same vanity unit is an increasingly popular choice in shared bathrooms, especially in master suites. It allows two people to use the space at the same time without interference, which improves functionality and everyday comfort. It also visually creates symmetry and structure, reinforcing a sense of order.

Floor-level fixed partitions
The current trend is away from screens with frames or hinged doors to fixed screens, without bottom profiles and fully integrated into the floor. This solution eliminates visual barriers, favours easier cleaning and provides an image of elegant minimalism, very much associated with high-end hotel design. Combined with a sintered stone cladding, these screens stand out for their sobriety and sophistication.

Open and connected layouts
An increasingly common proposal in contemporary interior design projects is the integration of the bathroom with the bedroom or dressing room, creating a single fluid and connected environment. This type of layout, in addition to being on trend, enhances the feeling of spaciousness, improves natural lighting and favours a more practical and enveloping experience. The large format of Ascale is ideal for visually unifying both spaces with the same materials, reinforcing this aesthetic continuity without cuts.
