These are the best colors to renovate the bathroom in 2024
Keys to hit
If you want to give your bathroom a new look, changing the color of the walls can be a great idea. But to choose the tonality you have to take into account some aspects that have some relevance.
– Think about lighting, both natural and artificial light, as both will have an impact on the way the colors you choose for the walls will look. If you don’t have a big window in your bathroom and you usually have the light on, look at the color tests under a lamp to get an idea of how it will look in real space.
– One color or several? Although one of the trends that triumphs in the bathrooms of 2024 is that of single-color spaces, that does not mean that you cannot combine two or three tones. Two neutral colors can work wonders; or you can create contrasts with a light and bright color and another intense and powerful.
– Don’t be afraid of dark tones. You do not always have to opt for light colors, even if your bathroom is not very spacious. Dare yourself!
Black and white, an infallible combination
Although this color duo is not new, it will be a winning option in 2024 as it is elegant and modern. The key is to abandon total white in the bathroom to incorporate black to a greater or lesser extent.
The black color on the walls adds character and sophistication. Combine it with white to prevent the result from being too dark, as in the bathroom proposed by Farrow&Ball.
Another less radical option is to leave the walls white and add black to the floor, the taps (the black ones are still a trend), the accessories and the profiles of the shower screens. It will be a sure hit.
Pink, the new neutral
Choosing pink to decorate the walls of the bathroom is a declaration of intent. If you decide on a pale and dusty pink you can use it as a much-needed neutral color in these small spaces.
Combine it with white and you will get a cozy and bright environment. You can paint the walls pink (use a paint suitable for wet areas), choose wallpaper in this color or tile covering.
Another option is to choose pink for the sink or accessories. If you need other colors to complement pink, besides white, go for gold or black.
Grey, elegant and versatile
It is one of the colors that triumph in 2024 and not only in the bathroom, but in any space in the house, from the living room to the bedroom through the hall or even the kitchen. It brings charm and elegance to the bathroom in all its nuances.
Light grey, bright and neutral, will achieve a greater feeling of spaciousness. Dark greys, such as anthracite, are deeper and more striking, so it is worth taking advantage of their decorative power and enriching a wall with them, for example.
To complete the decoration of the bathroom, combine gray with white, with wooden furniture that provides a warm note and with details in gold.
The thousand shades of blue
There are different versions of the color blue that will help you update the decoration of your bathroom, whether you use it to paint the walls or to add certain touches of color to the accessories and complements.
If you choose a powdery and pale color, it will bring serenity and calm to the space. The most intense and electric tones create dynamic and very attractive spaces. As an example, this space decorated with Annie Sloan painting.
Green, the force of nature
If there is a special color to decorate the bathroom in 2024, that is green. It is the color of nature and acquires great importance thanks to its versatility and the many nuances it can show.
The really complicated thing will be choosing between the different shades. Triumph, among others, the sage green, fresh and bright, and the darker and more powerful greens. You can choose to decorate all the walls in green, or combine different elements as in The Curious Department’s proposal in the photo, where it has been chosen for the wallpaper on the wall, the ceiling, the sink cabinet and the towels.
Imaginative turquoise
Halfway between blue and green, turquoise is an inspiring alternative that can be used in a thousand different ways in the bathroom. If you want to paint the walls, you can make yourself a gradient like the one in the image. According to this idea by Annie Sloan, the darkest color is placed at the top of the wall and gradually varies until it reaches the bottom that exhibits the lightest hue.
Very Peri, the color of the year 2022
It is the color of 2022 according to the prestigious Pantone Institute: a kind of purple that results from combining blue with a purplish red. According to these color experts, the Very Peri exudes optimism. It is a vital and cheerful color that symbolizes change, the deep transformation that our world is experiencing.
In fact, it almost always enhances any space, including the bathroom. To achieve this, you can combine a mosaic covering in purple tones with walls painted in a color from the same range as in the bathroom in the image proposed by the firm Tile Club.
Mustard, a universe of warmth
Mustard yellow is a cheerful and warm colour, super decorative, which looks great in the bathroom. It’s a fantastic way to generate good vibes every morning and to replenish our optimism levels.
In addition, it is modern and chic. You just have to be careful when combining it with other colors, which can sometimes be difficult. Pair it with white or blue and you won’t go wrong. Gray or green can also be good options.
