Bathroom Color Ideas

 
Cream, Gray, and Red Bathroom

The mod wallpaper provides the cue for this bathroom color scheme of gray, cream, tan, and red. With a light-reflecting cream-color tile on the floor and a similar cream as the background color of the wallpaper, the room's overall color tone is light and neutral.

A neutral room is likely to be boring unless you add a dark value to ground it. That's what the dark gray tiles do here, covering the backsplash and tub surround and striping the floor. The black marble vanity top adds emphasis and weight, while shots of red in the wallpaper and accessories enliven the scheme.

Natural wood warms up a room, but pay attention to the color tones of the wood to make sure it blends with your color scheme. The furniture-style vanity and shelving here have red undertones that relate to the wallpaper and accessories and add richness to the space.

If you have a small bathroom should you paint it a dark color or a neutral color?
