If you're looking for a simple, stylish and cost-effective way to update your bathroom this Autumn, refreshing your hardware is a great place to start. Matt black might be everywhere at the moment, but brushed brass is set to be a key trend in bathrooms this season. 

Whether your taps are looking tired, or your shower is looking sad, brass could be just the thing to take your bathroom from drab to fab. You can update everything from your accessories and bathroom fixtures with this glorious metal, here’s how to make it work in your home. 

How to work the brass bathroom trend

We all dream of that spa-like bathroom to unwind in at the end of the day with brushed brass accessories, that dream can be a reality. While matt black is still a big trend in bathrooms, opting for a brushed brass shower system is a surefire way to deliver an elegant yet contemporary style that echoes those boutique-hotel ensuites that we all hanker after.

When it comes to cabinets and countertop basins it's important not to overlook the small details, these are the finishing touches of your space. Wallmounted taps will provide a streamlined look, however, also consider adding in beautiful brass overflow caps for your basin or even brass flush push plates for your WC to achieve a cohesive and super-slick finish. 

3. Don't forget the accessories
