To ask you to look at this pic of my new bathroom and tell me why I hate it!

[Canyoutellwhoiamyet]

Name changed as outing.

We have saved so hard for this new bathroom. We have reconfigured it and had everything new. Stripped to bare brick.

I really don't like it :-(

We still want to put a shelf up behind the toilet with some nice things on, and a towel storer where 3 towels will be rolled up at once in there.

Please be honest. Be as brutal as needed. I want to change the paint I think but no idea what to. We need to get a blind. What else can I do to make this the dream bathroom I envisaged

I think the problem may be that the floor and the tiles don’t go. I would have gone with a more natural toned tile not grey to match the floor or if you wanted grey tiles I would have gone with a slate coloured floor.

I definitely wouldn’t go with a bold wall colour as that brings another colour into the bathroom which along with the floor and wall tiles would be too much. I would paint the walls white and then try and bring interest into it with accessories, a large plant like a few have suggested and wooden accessories would look good.

I agree with others. The window in particular is what is spoiling it

I completely understand why you dont like it. It needs colour. The light is too bright over the mirror. The bath is strange. Can you box the gap or something. Needsdifferent tiles and floor. However its white clean and fresh so can be sorted! Does need a strong colour!

I would be happy with a white bathroom, it means you can change the colour scheme easily when you are tired of it, by replacing towels, blind etc.

However, the style is not to my taste, too modern and doesn't have the character of a traditional style, but that is what everyone seems to be buying these days and you obviously wanted it that way so what I would be wondering is could you put something at the end of the bath where the gap is because it looks a bit odd. In our house there would be water cascading over the end onto the floor.

I like blues in a bathroom, as well as white. Are the tiles thick or is it the photo? Maybe more tiles, they seem to just - stop, but not so many that you have no wall to paint.

As many have already said its just a bit bare with no personality. Its crying out for colour.
I'd have a look at bathroom decoration/theme ideas and see what you like from that.
Personally I would get plants - a peace lily in the window, a tall palm between the loo and the bath.
A blind in the window.
Maybe some wall sconces for candles, maybe with mirror backs to reflect light.
A tall wooden open storage cube would look great too with bright towels rolled up on a shelf etc
As its quite bright (what direction does it face?) you could get away with a rich green or blue paint.
As it is, I would be very happy if it were my bathroom (although we need a bog standard bath for medical kit).

Also to add, I definitely think you need to tile to the ceiling on the bath wall.

It's very bare and neutral I think.

It’s beautiful! A plant and some towels is all that’s needed.
I’m envious!

Two things:

1. The layout is wrong. I would have put the bath along the wall with the shower (where the toilet is), and the toilet in the corner behind the sink. It would have looked better and you would have avoided the strange aesthetic of tiling only part way up the window.

1. There's no "colour scheme" - I dislike that phrase, but there doesn't seem to have been any thought put into making sure the colours complement each other.

Lastly, I'm sorry but I think the floor is awful and I suggest you change that if you can. Change the floor and repaint the walls and it could be much better, provided you choose the colours carefully. Personally I'd go for grey tones to complement the white, or you could use a bit of colour on the walls but I wouldn't use cream or bright tones.

I can't find anything to pick at, obviously it's a blank canvas- exciting! I'm as envious as I can possibly bring myself to be in regards to bathrooms.

If I’m being brutally honest it’s just abit boring .
There’s nothing wrong with it but it needs some colour .
I don’t really like the unit under the sink either
Get a nice blind up , paint it a nice colour and maybe a nice bath mat

Bathroom looks lovely, just needs a colour on the walls, maybe a wall mirror, a blind and bath mats, enjoy your new bathroom

It''s very bland. Agree with others - bright roller or roman blind on the window. Bit of art work.

Don't dare get nasty, yukky, unhygenic mats around the basin and loo. So 1970s.

Just read the front page. Its nice, new and modern. Its just a bit cold and stark at the moment. It just needs some finishing touches. Maybe a colour change but im not even sure about that.

THe problem is: grey tiles, brown floor, cream walls - did you not choose a colour scheme?

-Magnolia walls are wrong with a white bathroom, I don't think Magnolia walls have a place in any bathroom actually.

-just tiling round the bath looks a bit cheap, I would have gone for wall to ceiling times with feature tiles near the bath and shower maybe.

Yes I like the back lit mirror too.

The main issue is the walls, the bath, shower, toilet themselves are all nice.

Overall it's nice, it just doesn't have a luxurious feel. If I was buying your house it wouldn't put me off but it wouldn't be a massive selling point either.

Look on Pintrest, there's loads of examples of more dramatic colour schemes for bathrooms on there.

It's just a bit bare that's all. It needs 'staging' . I'd do wooden white blinds, a towel rack to the right of the loo & a narrow picture ledge type shelf over loo. If you like a pop of colour do that with towels etc. If you prefer the You Tuber white everything decor do that.

Also I don’t think the floor is right.
Tiled floor would’ve looked better .
I’m am very picky though !

I'd continue the sink tiles up to the mirror, it'll be more practical, you could use the shower/bath tiles and just do a border or line at the top of the ones you've already used.

The gap at the top of the shower is neither use nor ornament. Tile up to the ceiling, you could add a row of the sink tiles to pull in together a bit.

Same with the bath add a border of the sink tiles.

I don't think the floor goes, it's too dark but might work with different paint. I'd try Crown Smoked Glass.

The walls are too cream, I’d paint them white. A blind for the window. A few plants in terracotta pots on the window ledge and maybe a fab scented candle. A wooden bath shelf/holder that fits across the bath.

A set of prints on the wall. Maybe a shelf for a few bits.

Bet you wish you had never asked!

What’s going on with the shower cubicle? Is the door missing or is that the new style? Or am I blind.

Personally if you really don’t like it then pay an interior designer to completely jazz it up. They are brilliant at this.

The walls need to be white or grey but not cream. I'm not too keen on the floor.

The thing is that people are saying "grey" but grey is very now. Grey floor and grey tiles and grey towels and grey everything will look very avocado in a few years.

I think the window is the elephant in the room; a wooden-look venetian blind would look better than a roller, I think (although hopeless if you have children/ham-fisted dh tugging at it).

It's fine, just plain and bit bland. Jazz it up with bright colours, blind, towels and accessories.
