5 ways to add colour to your bathroom renovation

White-on-white everything is on it's way out and we are loving seeing our clients embrace colour for their homes. Colour is a fantastic way to to add a bit more personality and to help create the mood that you want for the space. If you're embarking on a bathroom renovation and considering adding some colour to the space, we've put together 5 different ways in which you can do that:


1 | Tiles

The first way that always comes to mind is through the tiles. It is very popular to include a feature wall in a fun colour or pattern to add a bit of life and personality to the space. This is because there are so many options available and so many fun ways to lay tiles that you can usually find the right one for you!

2 | Grout

This is not as popular but can look amazing if done right! Instead of adding colour in your tiles, you can go with a white or neutral tile then add a coloured grout. This looks best with smaller tiles like mosaics or with 100x100 tiles, as it can enhance the tile shapes. You can also try it with subways, especially if laying them in a fun pattern like herringbone or box weave.


3 | Vanity

If you're not tiling to the ceiling and/or your layout is not conductive to a feature wall, then your vanity could be a good place to add some colour! If you opt for a 2pac finish on your vanity, then you will have endless choices for colour as you can select almost any paint finish as a 2pac colour. However, if you want something more durable for kids and/or more budget friendly, both Polytec and Laminex have some wonderful colour laminates available as well.

4 | Basin

If you are just after a small pop of colour, then an above-mount basin could be the place to do it. Coloured basins have grown in popularity and are available in a range of colours, textures and materials. My go-to's are Nood Co's concrete basins, Marble Hub's natural stone basins and Robert Gordon's cermaic basin range.


5 | Paint

This one is a good option if you're not 100% sure how long you'll want to keep the colour for, as it's easier to change later on. You can pair this with some moisture resistant VJ panels or wainscotting to add a bit more texture as well. If you want to take it one step further and add some pattern, you can cover the wall with moisture resistant wallpaper instead.


I hope these ideas have been helpful! If you want to find out more about how we can help you with your project, get in contact with us below:
