Jen Thompson - Furniture Category Manager at Tavistock Bathrooms - takes BKU through the concept of “New Nostalgia”.

n 2025, the concept of “New Nostalgia” is set to take centre stage in bathroom
design, offering a sophisticated blend of heritage-inspired aesthetics and modern functionality. At Tavistock, this trend has become a key influence in the creation of our latest furniture collections, resonating with consumers who seek comfort, character, and craftsmanship in their interiors. After years of uncertainty, consumers are
turning to design that feels meaningful and grounding. New Nostalgia taps into the emotional power of history and memory, offering furniture that tells a story while enhancing the modern lifestyle. Platforms like Pinterest reflect this growing interest, with searches for terms such as Art Nouveau increasing by 200% year-on-year, proof that today’s customers are drawn to interiors that blend comfort, heritage, and self-expression. The trend represents a broader shift towards
spaces that balance old-world charm with contemporary living. As we move beyond 2025, expect to see even more experimentation with

texture, material contrasts, and intricate detailing that bridges traditional craftsmanship with minimalist sensibilities. This trend speaks to an enduring desire for design that feels personal and timeless.
What is New Nostalgia? New Nostalgia is all about reinterpreting the past with a contemporary twist. Instead of simply recreating traditional designs, it breathes new life into familiar forms, textures, and materials, resulting in pieces that feel timeless yet fresh. This trend draws from various design movements - including Art Deco, Art Nouveau, and Arts & Crafts - but unifies them under a broader ethos of storytelling and authenticity. One of the defining characteristics of New
Nostalgia is the use of rich, evocative colours and striking silhouettes. These colours complement the structured yet inviting forms of our cabinetry, creating a look that is both dramatic and refined. The resurgence of interest in craftsmanship and
quality materials is a cornerstone of New Nostalgia. The Legacy collection, for example,
embraces traditional joinery techniques and tactile finishes that emphasise durability and heritage. Every element is designed to evoke a sense of permanence, appealing to customers who value thoughtful design and enduring quality.
Accessories Soft, organic forms are another hallmark of this trend, taking inspiration from Art Nouveau’s fluid elegance. To complement our furniture collections, we have introduced the Verge Arched Mirror, a perfect example of how decorative yet functional accessories can complete the nostalgic aesthetic. Available in brass, black, and gunmetal finishes, this arched design adds a sense of refinement and balance, making it an ideal focal point for any bathroom. At Tavistock, we are proud to lead the way in
this design movement, offering furniture collections that inspire both retailers and consumers. Our goal is to create bathroom spaces that not only look beautiful but also resonate with the stories and sentiments that make a house a home.
