Designer radiators are becoming an increasingly popular choice in the bathroom as an alternative to traditional white panel radiators, opening up endless and exciting design possibilities for any space and taste. Having a radiator is a necessity, but a designer towel radiator is multi-functional, allowing you to create a personalised and unique focal point that’s not only stylish but also practical and cost-effective.

People are now choosing radiators on their design rather than durability. Whether you go for curves or sharp edges, sleek chrome or bright and bold, a discreet design or a work of art, a designer radiator is a valuable addition to any bathroom, contemporary or traditional. With so much choice and so many possibilities, have a read through our guide to designer radiators to help you understand what’s available and which one is right for you.
Firstly, you need to know how much heat your room requires. We’ve made this super easy and quick with our BTU calculator, this bit is important as the right radiator can reduce your energy bills. If you’re struggling to find space for a horizontal designer radiator, our range of vertical designer towel radiators could solve your problem. Vertically orientated, this type of designer radiator not only offers something a little different to a traditional horizontal radiator, it’s also a practical solution for bathrooms, which are often the smallest room in the house. This allows you to use your space more efficiently to suit your lifestyle.

This vertical Stelrad Designer Radiator makes effective use of wall space, freeing up space on the floor for other furniture whilst providing a stylish focal point as well as warmth in the bathroom.

In addition to popular white, chrome and black finishes, designer radiators are widely available in custom colours and finishes, so you can get the exact shade you want to complement your home. The possibilities are endless with a wide choice of patterns, metallic and matt finishes. Some models even allow you to have a photograph of your choice printed onto the radiator for a truly personalised and unique creation that you won’t find anywhere else.

A lot of designer radiators feature traditional aspects such as panels and vertical rails but presented in a more contemporary fashion, whilst some
models completely break the mould and look more like artwork than a radiator. More eccentric designer radiators feature smooth glass finishes,
asymmetric lines, integrated mirrors and can even double up as a seat.

Designer radiators are suitable for all interiors, even traditional-style bathrooms. Popular choices for traditional interiors include column style designer radiators or traditionally-styled towel warmers that ooze opulence and luxury. Column radiators are available in horizontal or vertical and can often be custom made to any RAL shade, so choosing a traditional style designer radiator does not mean you have to sacrifice design. You don’t have to have a super contemporary bathroom to benefit from all the advantages that designer radiators offer.
