Choose one of so many ways to imbue a splash of color into your bathroom remodel!
Blue is as good an option as any for the bathroom! From royal blue to turquoise blue, there are endless shades and various application methods that can work together to create an atmosphere that's right for you. Blue can create a fresh and calming environment, or a funky and fun one! With many of our clients gravitating towards blue to bring life to their bathroom remodel, we are sharing a few ways to incorporate this versatile color into your bathroom:
1. Bathroom Vanity
Bathroom vanities are the statement piece and focal point of most bathroom remodels. The design of the bathroom vanity sets the tone for the entire room. For a bold statement, consider blue vanity and cabinets or shelving units. They can be an eye catching focal point in the bathroom when paired with brass fixtures to create interest and contrast.
2. Bathroom
Tiles
Add blue accents through elements like decorative tiles or mosaic patterns, and add it to the shower, as a backsplash, or even on the floor to draw emphasis to the space. Tiles come in many shapes like the ever popular traditional subway tiles for clean lines, to hexagon tile patterns for an edgier but still classic look. You can also play with textures, finishes, or materials to create anything from a high gloss to matte surface. Tile shapes and patterns can truly make a design statement and make your room look like a work of art. Just make sure, with a color as bold as blue, to use colors and tiles for other areas of the space that compliment rather than compete with the statement piece.
Shower Tiles
Shower tiles promise to be eye-grabbing and the trick comes with balancing it out with complementary hardware. And beyond the shape itself, you can also play with orientation, pattern, and material.
Floor Tiles
Introduce blue tiles for the bathroom floor. This can create a beautiful and durable impact on your space. The continuity and flow of blue tiles from the floor to wall draws your eyes up to create a sense of spaciousness as well. And to note, the more grout lines, the more grip you have.
Backsplash Tiles
Tile is a tried and true backsplash material and for good reason. It’s clear that a well-executed backsplash can change the look of any room. A backsplash can go anywhere from behind the vanity, on an accent wall, to shower niches and tubs.
3. Bathroom Wall Paint
With the right shade, blue can create a serene and coastal feel. Paint the bathroom walls in shades of blue for a beachy feel or deep navy for a more dramatic look. Use a waterproof and mildew-resistant paint to ensure longevity.
Turquoise
And lastly, for those who favor the bold, turquoise is a shade of blue too! This can be a bold design choice that anchors the room's color scheme and creates a fun and funky space for those who don’t want to take life too seriously!
