I'll go first:

Matte black shower sets and kitchen faucets are the shit now. I've installed so many of these during the past year.

Got my bathroom redone last year. Guess which color, lol.

Faucet, sink, tub, shitter, and shower head are all matte black.

To my defense the floor is dark grey and the walls are medium grey. I don't want it to look like a cheap "fancy" hotel with the white/black contrast I see everywhere.

Mind sharing a picture of your new bathroom? Matte black toilet seat is something I've yet to encounter.

Just installed a golden shower though. I'll never forgive myself for not seeing the joke there before my gf of all people pointed it out.

the fact that she thinks of it means shes game.

And if she's not, hell gimme a holler; it's Saturday, which is bath day anyway.

Remember the gloss black fixtures that were very trendy for a brief time in the 80's?

I would show more, but with 4 kids in the household, it's an absolute mess in here right now. But this should give you an idea of the general design.

I used to think white wall and floor are just too basic, but having stayed in my friend's almost-all-black studio apartment made me appreciate how easy it is in white/bright-themed bathroom to see any impending cockroach before it crawls on any of my limbs :(

Haha! We've been scouring the discount bin at the local hardware stores for faucetry (is that a word?). By now most of our stuff is matte black because that's all that gets returned.

Saw them at a hotel not too long ago and immediately talked about how matte black faucets would be awesome at home.

Not true in government housing

lol
