May 13, 2026These Spring Kitchen & Bath Designs Make the Most of Your Home This Season
This spring, more homeowners are stepping away from safe, minimalist spaces and embracing something with a little more personality. Maximalist design is taking over, and kitchens and bathrooms are favorite spaces to play with layered colors, textures, and décor. From bold kitchens full of character to spa-inspired bathrooms with layered detail, these spring mood boards are designed to inspire your home design this spring.
What is Maximalism?
Maximalism is having a major moment in home design after several years of ultra minimalist, all-white design aesthetics. Perfect for a spring home refresh, maximalist design creates spaces that are expressive, layered, personal, and fully of life. Instead of stripping a space down to its bare essentials, maximalist design embraces color, texture, pattern, and meaningful details to create your perfectly curated home.
Start your spring home refresh with these maximalist looks in the bath or kitchen – two great spaces to play with color, texture, and pattern.
Maximalist Looks for the Kitchen
Rattan & Never Bland:
Start your maximalist kitchen design with two-tone cabinetry, anchoring the kitchen with a warm wood tone like Cinnamon, while lightening the space with uppers in a warm white Calacatta Elysio quartz countertops offer movement with eye-catching veining, while accessories like rattan baskets and lampshades, floral dinnerware, and quilted potholders bring in texture and pattern. Don’t be afraid to mix and match metals with your faucet and cabinet door knobs!
Mossy River:
This design takes its cues from the banks of your favorite a tree-lined river. The right combination of wood, foliage, and shine lifts the space with a feeling so alive you can almost hear the frogs quietly croaking. Replicate this look with detailed Georgetown base cabinets in blueberry, and topped with Minuet quartz countertops. A neutral-toned quartz sink vibes with the warm wood furniture, while faucets, door handles, and accessories bring in a warm golden shine.
Maximalist Bathroom Designs for Spring
Strawberry Matcha:
This popular flavor combination has spring color profile that translates perfectly to a fun and funky bathroom design. Start with an Alden vanity in sage green, top it with soft pink paint, and let the Grayline Roman Stone shower walls be the ice cubes! Brushed nickel fixtures, fresh foliage, and soft linens are the perfect accessories to remind you of that perfect taste where matcha and strawberry cold foam blend.
The Mud Room:
Forget the entryway where everyone leaves their shoes and clutter. This “Mud Room” is just for you, and lets you indulge in a maximalist spa experience. Start with Evo shower walls for the look of pebbled stone, and a clean white pedestal sink and cabinetry. A rich, relaxing wall color brings in the soothing mud tone, while resilient wood-look flooring keeps the natural feel, along with fresh ferns, soft green linens, and eucalyptus accents.
Creamy Florals:
Maximalist design doesn’t have to mean bright color combinations. Monochromatic layered looks can achieve the same effect, and a pop of color is a great way to give the eye a place to rest. This creamy maximalist bathroom design starts with marble-look Tuscany shower walls, and echoes additional natural stone movement in the Tiramisu vanity top and tone-on-tone bath towel accessories. A natural wood vanity and creamy wall color keep the calm feel, while a rich blue shower curtain and oil-rubbed bronze accents complete the look.
Accessorizing Your Spring Mood Boards
The best part about these maximalist looks is that there are no rules for coming up with a design that’s right for your home! Whether you’re drawn to bold colors, natural textures, vintage-inspired details, or layered monochromatic looks, maximalism gives you endless ways to make your kitchen or bathroom feel fresh for spring.
