Last week, we had the pleasure of attending ISH 2025 in Frankfurt, one of the world’s leading trade shows for bathroom design and innovation. It was fantastic to be back, soaking in the latest trends and gathering fresh inspiration for Timberline’s future collections.

Here’s a rundown of what we saw – and how you can bring these trends to life in your space.

Colour: Bold & Beautiful

Colour made a huge impact at ISH this year, with bright hues and strong, deep pastels stealing the show. If you love this look, Timberline’s custom paint options allow for endless possibilities to achieve vibrant, on-trend finishes on your bathroom cabinetry.

Fluting & Ribbed Designs Still Going Strong

Textured surfaces continue to be a standout, and vertical fluting was a big feature across many displays. This detail can be easily introduced with our routed-front vanities like Elwood, Emmett, Henley, Saba, and Santos.

A Shift in Vanity Cabinet Shapes

While soft, curved forms have been popular in recent years, we noticed fewer large-radius corners on vanity cabinets this time around. Instead, clean lines and defined edges are taking centre stage, offering a sleek and modern aesthetic.

All-Drawer Vanities Dominating

Maximising storage and functionality, all-drawer vanities were a strong feature at ISH 2025. This design trend continues to gain traction for its practicality and clean-lined look, providing efficient storage solutions for modern bathrooms. Be sure to check out Timberline’s large range of all-drawer options, including the Nevada Plus, Grange, Oxbow, and many more.

Mirrors: Curves & Asymmetry

Mirrors continued to make a statement, with plenty of curved and asymmetrical designs on display. If you’re looking to embrace this trend, check out our curved mirrors like Church, Jazz Arch, Melody, Oxford, and Portland.

Tapware Trends: Shapes Over Shades

While tapware seemed to dominate much of the show, there wasn’t much movement in terms of new colours. Surprisingly, gunmetal and black finishes were far less prominent than in previous years. Instead, asymmetrical shapes and sustainability-focused designs were the key themes.

What’s Next for Timberline?

ISH is always a great source of inspiration, and we’re excited to take these insights and translate them into new, innovative Timberline products. We’re constantly exploring fresh ideas, refining our designs, and ensuring our collections stay ahead of the curve. Watch this space!
