Q. Should I make my bathroom darker in colour/shade?
2 Answers
Dark shades in a bathroom can feel surprisingly cozy and luxurious, especially with good lighting and the right finishes. We went with matte charcoal tiles and warm LED mirrors, and it gave the whole room a modern hotel vibe. The bathroom renovation company we worked with helped balance the darker tones with lighter wood accents so it didn’t feel too heavy. If you’re going that route, it’s all about contrast and texture. Definitely worth discussing with your fitter before committing.

One of the biggest trends I see at the moment is a love of darker bathrooms. In the past, everyone just went with the brightest colour scheme possible. Today, though, it is quite common to find bathrooms that are darker in tone. Even small accents like a black shower screen frame can add a bit of difference to the look of the room.
Do not feel like you need to go with a light bathroom. This is actually quite an antiquated choice, with many people going for a more muted tone. This is easier to clean, and you can usually find that getting colours to blend with darker accents is easier than lighter ones. For that reason, you should not discount the choice of going for a darker all-around colour scheme for your bathroom – right down to the shower screen framing.answered by caylachamplin
