There has never been a better time to undertake a bathroom renovation, thanks to the ever-increasing range of innovative fixtures and fittings.

From freestanding tubs to furniture-style vanities, the latest collections have every base covered for both contemporary and traditional bathrooms.

But it can be confusing co-ordinating all the different elements, which is where your local Harvey Norman Renovations store can help. Each store features display bathrooms showcasing the latest designs, materials and products from the floor tiles to the vanities, showers and tubs.

Sales manager Michael Kalpou says the clean-lined, uncluttered look continues to define modern bathrooms.

"Large mirrors that are set flush with wall tiles enhance the sense of space," he says. "And although homeowners are looking to create a tranquil retreat, they also want their bathrooms to make a statement. Consequently, there is a move towards contrasting textures and colourful tiled feature walls. Many people are choosing to include a designer piece, such as a stone vanity or freestanding tub."

Kalpou says therapeutic spa baths, massage showers, frameless screens and glass splashbacks are also influencing bathroom design.

"Comfort, good design and an element of sophistication are all key components."
