Futuristic Interior Design: The Latest Design Trend 

 

The need for increasingly unique designs has paved the way for imaginative and distinctive interior design trends. One such trend that is creating interesting interior design is the futuristic style of digital dreamscapes. 

Fusing art, design and technology, the dreamscape aesthetic creates an escape into a futuristic world. Featuring exotic designs and dreamy inspirations, this design trend aims to break the barriers of conventional interior design. Dedicated to creating an escape, futuristic interior designs provide a space where our world stops and an inspirational, fantastical world begins. Seeking to captivate the senses, this design trend is making its way into homes, offices, hotels, and more.

This design trend is characterised by three core features: embracing innovative shapes, integrating technology, prioritising sustainability and focusing on emotional well-being. Exploring these features a little further can help you reimagine your bathroom design and create a space that pushes the boundaries of modern design. 

 

Embracing Innovative Shapes 

 

Emerging from a need to look towards the future, futuristic interior design pushes the boundaries to create an awe-inspiring space. Embracing unconventional spaces, materials and layouts, futuristic interior design creates fluid, dynamic and visually striking environments. 

One way to bring this aesthetic into your bathroom design is through the use of innovative shapes. While modern design features a lot of straight lines and prominent edges, futuristic design uses curvilinear elements to create an immersive environment that can appear otherworldly. 

Take this modern bath design for example. This design embraces the innovative curvilinear style. We see it in the soft curve of the bath, the perfect roundness of the spout and bath filler design, even down to the accompanying table and accessories. This creates an otherworldly aesthetic bringing both artistic and futuristic appeal to the space. 

 

Integrating Technology 

 

Futuristic ideas and visualisations are undeniably intertwined with technology. That’s why this relationship features heavily in futuristic interior design. From smart home systems to interactive surfaces, integrating technology into our spaces brings personalised interaction with our environment. 

One of the best and easiest ways to bring this ideal into our modern bathroom designs is through illuminated mirrors. Adding an additional source of lighting into the bathroom can allow you to adjust the mood and feel of the room with the touch of a button. The wonderful advancement of demisting technology allows this mirror to remain clear at all times, meaning you can use it at your leisure without restriction. 

 

Prioritising Sustainability

 

When we think about the future, we think about sustainability, so it’s no wonder that futuristic interior design also places such a focus on eco-conscious design. Through sustainable materials, energy-efficient solutions and biophilic designs, futuristic interior design is bringing sustainability to the forefront.

The first way to bring sustainable design into the bathroom is by paying close attention to water consumption. All Britton taps are WRAS approved, meaning they provide an efficient use of water. Another way is through the implementation of biophilic design principles. Integrating nature-inspired elements promotes a greater and more fulfilling connection between us and the environment. 

 

Emotional Well-Being 

 

For a beneficial and worthwhile future, happiness and well-being have to be key players. That’s why emotional well-being is heavily factored in futuristic interior design. The chance to create an imaginative, creative and otherworldly space gives us the chance to bring a blissful escape into our homes. The dreamlike nature of futuristic interior design brings with it the relaxation and peacefulness of an escape. 

A space that creates an emotional impact will look different to everyone. But one area of the bathroom where you can easily create a place of mindfulness and revitalisation is the showering space. With the right shower head, enclosure design and brassware styles and colours, you can create a soothing space to give you an emotional boost. Combine this with natural colours and textures throughout the bathroom and you have a dreamy space where relaxation comes naturally.
