HOW TO CHOOSE A SHOWER IN 2020
If you’re planning a bathroom remodel or adding a brand new shower to your current bathroom or your second home, there are some key shower trends for 2020 that would definitely be worth keeping up with.
Shower designers are creating some stunning new shower solutions, not only in terms of the look and the finish of the shower heads and accessories but more importantly the flow of the water and the ecologically friendly aspect of your water supply.
Here are five shower trends to keep an eye on, all beautiful and suiting any taste.
For even more inspiration, please feel free to pop into our Petersfield showroom and head to our dedicated shower zone where you can sample the different water flows for yourself.
1] Powder Rain
Think velvety soft droplets, the perfect intensity, powerful yet powderlike. PowderRain is the newest type of shower flow that not only gives you the most wonderful shower but it also reduces energy and water consumption. In place of one single spray outlet for each nozzle, PowderRain has six super fine openings so the result is thousands of incredibly light micro droplets that gently fall onto the skin without bouncing off. Which means less splashing and also a much quieter shower.
The Hansgrohe Raindance overhead shower collection all feature PowderRain at the touch of a button and come in a variety of shapes and sizes. Circular, square or rectangular overhead shower heads, surface mounted or concealed, all beautifully stylish with a clean, classic, chrome finish, along with a glorious powder rain shower experience all mean that your bathroom is going to become your most favourite room in the house.
The Axor 350 Air overhead jet plate is another PowderRain option for a shower, with its beautiful brass finish on a modern contemporary design.
For an instant bathroom uplift, if you were to change just one thing, the addition of a PowderRain shower would be a real statement piece for any bathroom.

With the perfect ‘rain’ water flow and warm light, you can warm up for the day in your own time.
