Bathroom Colour Schemes
It is important that you choose a colour scheme that you really like for your bathroom. If you want a simple colour scheme, then you may wish to stick to white. White is also a good colour for giving your bathroom a clean and formal look, especially when used alongside colours such as black.
If you wish to achieve a cosier look, then it may be a good idea to use warm colours such as red or orange. For a relaxed look, cool colours such as blues and greens are the best to use. Blue is also a good colour to use if you are trying to stick to an aquatic theme for your bathroom.
Red is a good colour to use if you wish to achieve a luxurious designer look for your bathroom. For a sophisticated look, try using a mixture of cream, brown, black and white. These colours will also give your bathroom a French flair.
The best way to decide on a suitable colour scheme for your bathroom is to perhaps take a look at existing bathrooms to see which colours work best. If you are struggling to get an idea of the look you wish to achieve, then it is a good idea to pay a visit to some bathroom showrooms, where you will be able to see which colours compliment different types of bathrooms.
Another idea is to research different colour schemes. Try looking around on the internet. There may be websites that allow you to test out different colours on an example bathroom or sites that provide advice on which colours compliment each other the best.

Choosing appropriate color for bathroom design is very important and it really varies person to person. In fact, I believe the color scheme depends largely on personality traits. If someone is extravagant by nature, he or she may like to paint his bathroom with bright colors, however, an introvert may want some light but illuminating colors.

Our bathroom is pretty much tiled all the way round to shoulder height and then just one shade of a Aqua green.
I am so tempted to paint the ceiling white but on one side of the room the ceiling curves down to the wall, painting it all white would look strange since the tiles are white and we need something to break that colour up.
Any Ideas ?

try adding a feature border between the tiles and the celing – try an appropriate thickness rope this will add depth and be a unique feature!

We are redoing our bathroom from scratch. We have all white fittings and dont have clue as to what colour to do the room. We were looking at a dark slate grey floor and beige wall tiles, then we changed to all beige so it all ties up.
We are open to suggestions, can you help please.
Many thanks.
