A modern bathroom isn't just about aesthetics , but also about functionality . The combination of thoughtful design , quality materials , and smart solutions can transform any space into a comfortable, practical, and visually appealing space.

At Merkimarket, we'll tell you five keys to achieving this, based on current trends and top-brand products that you'll find in our online store.

1. Strategic lighting

Lighting is one of the most important elements in the design of a modern bathroom .

  • General lighting: recessed or ceiling-mounted LED ceiling lights, low consumption and warm neutral tone (3000K-4000K).
  • Focal light: mirrors with integrated lighting for an elegant and functional effect.
  • Ambient lighting: LED strips hidden in furniture or under countertops for a sophisticated touch.

At Merkimarket, we have backlit mirrors and bathroom lamps that combine style and practicality.

2. Choosing screens: design and practicality

Modern screens emphasize transparency and clean lines, allowing the space to feel larger.

  • 6 to 8 mm tempered glass .
  • Anti-limescale treatment for easy cleaning.
  • Sliding or folding systems depending on the space available.

In our store, you'll find screens from renowned brands, with premium finishes and details that make a difference.

3. Sanitary ware: functionality with style

A modern toilet should be efficient, comfortable and easy to maintain.

  • Wall-hung toilets: save space and make cleaning easier.
  • Compact models: perfect for small bathrooms.
  • Ecological flushing systems: reduce water consumption.

At Merkimarket we work with leading brands such as Roca , Fossil Natura , Nashi and Unisan , which guarantee quality and design.

4. Smart furniture and storage


Floating furniture is a trend:

  • It provides lightness and visual spaciousness.
  • Makes floor cleaning easier .
  • It includes hidden drawers and compartments to keep things organized.

Natural wood finishes , matte lacquers or combinations with stone elevate bathroom design .

5. Details and accessories that make the difference

Choosing the right accessories elevates the overall bathroom design :

  • Single-lever faucets in black, gold or chrome finishes.
  • Coordinated accessories: soap dishes, toothbrush holders, dispensers.
  • Soft, quality textiles in neutral or contrasting colors.

At Merkimarket, we have complete collections to maintain a coherent aesthetic throughout the bathroom.
