Choosing Paint Colors for Bathrooms
Paint Colors for Bathrooms
? Cool and muted colors send a soothing message. A room dressed in pale blue with gray undertones, for instance, will have a calming effect. Create a spa-like retreat by using moss and sea greens. Colors from earth and nature convey a peaceful, tranquil feeling. To break out of the norm, try periwinkle blue; because it is within the cool spectrum of the color wheel, it maintains a calm mood while adding a color pop. Rich, deep colors will make your bathroom feel warm and cozy. Look for hues in the warm spectrum of the color wheel, such as ruby, aubergine, and gold. Envision the colors of wines and Tuscan friezes. Warm colors also support an elegant decorating style.
Neutral colors never go out of style. To create a sophisticated look, choose medium-value browns and creams, such as bisque and ivory, that are warm but not overpowering. You can always add color to a neutral palette with linens, accessories, and decorative items.
Create a Visual Effect
Do you want to make your tiny bathroom feel larger or bring down a tall ceiling? Use paint colors to visually change the perceived size and shape of your bathroom.
Paint an accent color on the ceiling to draw the eye upward, making a room feel taller. Coat the walls of a large bathroom with a dark hue to add cozy depth. This effect is especially warm and inviting in a spacious master bath. If you hesitate to paint the walls too dark, add a darker value to the ceiling to create the illusion that the room is smaller.
