As the deadline for Dezeen Awards 2025 approaches, we’ve focused on colourful bathroom products with smart technologies and innovative materials to inspire your entries for our new bathroom product design category.
Bathroom brands, designers and manufacturers continue to integrate new technologies and finishes into designs for baths, showers, toilets, sinks, taps and built-in furniture, to balance practicality and comfort in wet rooms.
Ranging from a bright orange centrepiece smart toilet to an egg-shaped bath made for two, these products feature high-quality, easy-to-clean finishes such as composite resin, waterproof cork and corrosion-resistant stainless steel that would make a statement in any bathroom.
Read on to see which products would make a stand-out entry into Dezeen Awards.

Designer and Dezeen Awards 2025 judge Samuel Ross designed this asymmetrical bright-orange smart toilet for bathroom brand Kohler from composite resin.
