Between calm and radiance: the silver look makes a comeback in the bathroom

Iserlohn, 16 September 2025

The comeback of a classic: silver-look finishes are currently experiencing a revival. Versatile and elegant, they represent a countermovement to the warm and dark finishes that have characterised bathroom design for several years. Fittings manufacturer Dornbracht offers a wide range of variants, from shiny Chrome to rough Brushed Platinum.

Timeless modern look
The return to silver finishes in the bathroom is more than just a reaction to an ongoing design trend. Their familiar appearance can also be understood as a desire for calm and security: In an increasingly complex, confusing world, the timeless classics convey consistency, order, and reliability.

As a discreet stylistic device with an extraordinary spatial effect, light-coloured metal surfaces can be used universally and are convincing in both minimalist and expressive settings. In modern interiors in particular, the shimmering finishes develop a strong visual presence thanks to their striking light reflections. Their versatile look is particularly style-defining in combination with minimalist architecture or cool tech aesthetics, whereby they form bold combinations with wood, natural stone, glass, or exposed concrete.

Inspiring variety at Dornbracht
Dornbracht's portfolio includes metallic finishes in Chrome and Platinum, which are available in brushed and glossy versions. Like all of the manufacturer's finishes, they are characterised by perfection in all dimensions and enrich a wide variety of bathroom architectures with their depth of colour, intensity, and brilliance. At the same time, precise manufacturing with a high degree of manual craftsmanship guarantees their durability and resistance. The colour families range from metallic to gold tones. Individual finishes can even be realised starting at one piece. This wide range of available finishes opens great freedom in realising personal visions for your own bathroom.
