White bathroom? Make a splash with cool colours

Whether your style is classic or modern, a white bathroom provides the perfect clean slate from which to start decorating. A feature panel of colour in a cool, light-reflecting hue like aquamarine or sea green will warm up the white surfaces while still evoking a sense of serenity. If tiles dominate the room, try adding colour in unexpected ways. You could paint the inside of your bathroom shelves or cabinets, replace current fixtures with colourful taps and door knobs or even paint your ceiling a crisp shade of emerald green or teal. Even if you prefer a white bathroom, it’s worth introducing neutral accents and textured accessories, such as pot plants, a wooden bath mat or a mosaic mirror to soften the look. If your bathroom is well ventilated, you could also replace your blinds with billowy curtains for a sense of old-world glam.
