The top bathroom colour choices of 2023

  1. White bathrooms
  2. Pink bathrooms
  3. Black bathrooms
  4. Green bathrooms
  5. Blue bathrooms

Graeme Borchard MD of UK Bathrooms commented “Bathroom colour can have a huge impact on the atmosphere of your bathroom, and by extension, your mood. Neutral bathroom colours are perfect for providing a calming environment. If you wanted to brighten up the bathroom and produce a more energizing atmosphere, incorporating brighter colours such as reds, oranges and yellows can be an effective way to achieve this.” Graeme continues: “Clearer blues and aqua greens offer a fresh look in any bathroom and can help evoke a sense of calmness.”

White for tranquility

A white bathroom is a perfect choice to create a clean, calm atmosphere, think of white doves representing peace, white will help to relax a busy mind and also boost mood.

Design a clean, elegant space by using white high gloss tiles or marble, the look will be spa-like and will give the illusion of a lighter, brighter, spacious room.

Pink for warmth

To get this right opt for a blush or old rose pink for a subtle introduction of this uplifting colour into your bathroom space. It will create a warm, comfy feeling that will definitely then help to boost your mood. The more intense, brighter hues of pink may make you feel overwhelmed, uneasy and agitated.

Pair your rose pink with colours such as navy blue or sage green.

Black for empowerment

Use this strong hue correctly to achieve a feeling of empowerment, use just enough so the space still feels open. Black epitomises luxury and sophistication, paired with brushed brass brassware. Or use Matt Black brassware against a neutral setting for an industrial modern look.

Green for wellbeing

Green is a colour that is the closest to nature and makes us feel more connected to ourselves as well as giving us a feeling of relief after a long day with its feeling of freshness. A green bathroom will help us relax, help promote our self-care and enable us to feel grounded. Shades of sage green and forest green work so well with brushed brass, as well as matt black.

Blue for relaxation

Blue is associated with relaxation, think of the ocean. Use lighter shades or rich jewel blues to create a relaxing space. These shades are ideal used to create as an accent colour around a shower area.

So whether you want to create an oasis of calm or energizing space, bathroom colour is key to setting the right tone in the bathroom – so take some time to think about which colours will suit you best.
