Bathroom colour schemes are essential for getting the look, feel and design just right your bath or shower room. Creating the right ambience is key for a bathroom especially, because while we use it every day it's the place that at times we need to feel completely indulgent – run a bath and shut the world out kind of vibes.
To inject a touch of personality break free of a staid, safe designs and add pops of colour. Adding a bright hue to your bathroom will really lift your whole home, bringing this functional space into line with the rest of your decor. Or, if you prefer a chic and modern take on interiors, you can choose muted greys to complement your otherwise neutral bathroom colour scheme. The ambience can be left entirely to the right lightning.
The right colour can completely transform a bathroom. Take a look at our bold and bright bathroom colour schemes for all your decorating inspiration..
Bathroom colour schemes
1. Add depth with a blue-green

Keep your bathroom simple with a white suite and chrome brassware, then ring the changes with a deep blue-green wall colour – enabling you to switch up your style by simply re-painting.
Building out a shallow shelf and tiling with plain white tiles not only hides waste pipes but also offers the perfect ledge for fresh foliage, bringing in pops of vibrant green to the scheme. The oval bath cuts corners to enhance a sense of space – a great small bathroom idea.
2. Work with all shades of grey

For a cosy, cocooning fee, grey bathroom ideas literally make the walls feel like they are closing in on you. Painting the bath in a paler grey and adding wooden accessories will give an added dimension and prevent the grey walls becoming overbearing.
Creating a panelled effect in the bathroom will not only add character it will also break up a flat area of painted grey wall – light will hit the panelling at different points and change its shade and tone, therefore adding interest.
3. Mix pebble and stone

Mix greys, off-whites and browns with touches of shell pink to create a neutral scheme with a pretty edge. Pair up opposites for a look thats inspired by nature but sophisticated, too. Team slate floor tiles with pretty polished-stone mosaics; tough concrete-grey walls with soft pink towels; smooth wood with rustic wicker.
Finish the look by adding a floating shelf painted in the same colour as the wall and use to display toiletries together with beachcombing treasures.
4. Choose nautical blues

Evoke a summery image of bright skies and deep sea by teaming Azure blue walls with a fresh white bath. This simple nautical bathroom idea creates a relaxed yet confident scheme by boldly mixing a Mediterranean palette with touches of globally-inspired prints, such as mosaic and trellis designs, on blinds and towels.
Accessorise using texture with the addition of wooden and woven pieces.
5. Pick plaster pink

Give a downstairs cloakroom some pretty vintage touches. Start by choosing a soft pink for the walls, add lace embossed tiles and finish with a flourish of pretty pre-loved accessories to complete the look.
If it is a small cloakroom, paint all walls (including the ceiling) in the same colour for a super immersive feel and choose an off-cut of scalloped edged lace to dress the windows, too.
6. Be bold with black and gold

7. Try lilac and primrose yellow

Team with a clever wall panelling idea – this design is painted in a complementary shade of purple. Finish with painting the bath in a matching lilac. Freshly cut flowers, or cologne filled glass bottles creates a summery mood.
8. Make a statement with neutrals

Black interiors are a trend that shows no signs of ebbing. However, black walls in a bathroom is a big risk as it can darken the space. Instead, dip your toe in the trend with black fittings such as a bath and wall panel. Keep the rest of the room bright and breezy with white tiles.
11. Stick to earthy terracotta and copper

Pink is everywhere at the moment. If you think fluffy candy-floss shades when you hear pink, this strong earthy take on the shade will change on that.

It's an oldie but a goodie, using a stronger colour on the lower part of the wall to stretch the height – an optical illusion of course. This simple trick helps to create to break up the wall and create the feeling of space – ideal for use in smaller bathrooms.
In this stylish example a sophisticated shade of green is used on wood panelling to add definition to the colour break. A brilliant white above helps to elevate the colour contrast. Smart walnut cabinetry and touches of monochrome add a touch of characterful elegance to the look.

15. Go dark and dramatic with grey

Colour has a huge impact on mood, and bathrooms have a tendency to sidestep polarizing hues in favour of pale neutrals and whites, which are refreshing and easy to live with.
At the opposite end of the spectrum, darker shades of grey including slate, are also popular for creating a cocooning effect. Brooding dark shades provide the perfect backdrop for rich metallics, such as gold or brass.

If clean white is working in your space but you wish to add a hint of interest – perhaps it's a budget bathroom idea or update – why not go half and half? This bathroom boasts brilliant white walls above a line, that has been perfectly measured and taped to form the illusion of a dado rail.
The bottom half in complete contrast is a combination of a thing stripe in turquoise blue and a block of rich navy below.
17. Opt for blue in an on-trend ombre

Choosing a monochrome colour scheme always helps to create a striking finish, without overpowering with accent colours. In this sleek bathroom the walls and furniture choices are black while the free-standing bath and Metro tile surround is kept classic in white.
The patterned flooring helps to marry the shades and add further character to the scheme.
22. Add interest with contrasting coloured tiles

For a look that is highly contemporary and original, lay wall tiles in contrasting hues chevron-style to create a bespoke space, as per this bathroom tile idea. A mix of blush pink, teal green and black combines well to enhance the modernity of this bathroom.
Remember, less is more, so think petal pinks as an accent and include no more than three tonal shades in your palette. Use black as the base. Like white, it's the colour that sets off any pink to its best advantage.
23. Keep things natural

Look to the earth for inspiration. This taupe and limestone colour combination has a beautifully grounded feel to it, ideal for a space to relaxing and enjoy some timeout.
The neutral colour palette across all the tiled surfaces and the furniture helps to create a feeling of serenity, like that of a natural spa. The stone and putty colours are perfectly matched with mint green accessories to add a hint of uplifting colour in contrast.
24. Choose complementary colours

Bring a plain white bathroom to life with a feature wallpaper. A sweet coastal-inspired design is all that's needed to add charm and oodles of character. Using a statement bathroom wallpaper in a designated place – around the bath and above dado height only – will make it all the more special.
In this room, the blue and red of the wallpaper has been used on accessories as an easy way to co-ordinate the scheme. Off-white floor tiles, laid with a dark grout, introduce a touch of difference.
25. Make it multicoloured

Add interest to a white scheme with accent tiling. Line recessed shelves with colour-coded tiles to turn them into a design feature in their own right. To create recessed shelving, you'll need to build a false wall, which can also be used to keep plumbing out of sight. Finish of the look with a bold, yellow rubber floor, which is unashamedly loud and proud.
26. Light up in pink

Give a white bathroom a hint of colour with clever bathroom lighting ideas. This walk-in shower has been illuminated with coloured LED lights, which have been embedded into the walls. Great for emphasising architectural features, highlighting wet areas and creating an intimate glow, clever bathroom lighting adds drama to any scheme.
The right lighting can soften a bathroom's hard surfaces, while mood lighting helps the room become a relaxing haven. Glass and high-gloss finishes help to bounce the light around the room. Install a dimmer switch for the best effect.
27. Contrast colours

29. Think (pale) pink

Introduce a dash of blush pink to your scheme for a bold or barely there effect. If you think pink is best suited to country schemes, you'd be wrong. Used in a subtle way, pink can look equally good in a modern setting. A nod to the chevron trend is made with a contrasting zigzag on plain curtains, while sleek fittings ensure that the decoration remains the focus.

The black polished granite countertop and upstand is reflective, glamorous – and even practical, too.
