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

Roman style blind and a canvas photo/artwork on the wall. Shelf with luxurious smellies and soft fluffy bath mat

The wall colour is wrong. W have skylight and light blue by farrow and ball in our bathroom and it looks lovely.

I haven’t read others opinions so as to be honest in mine. I think it needs a bit of colour somehow. Doesn’t feel very cosy. So nice towels, colourful blind, maybe some art or photos on the wall where the loo sits. I think it needs to be made a bit more yours.

What's wrong? Looks very swerve.

Bath mats
Pictures or something on walls behind toilet
Blind

Magnolia walls and dark floor

Looking again, I think the room would look more complete if that one wall was all tile, up to the ceiling.

It's a bit cold and souless. My bathrooms don't have decoration but I think yours does require some. a rug, some interesting towels. You could do an interesting single stripe (mid or 3/4 way up the wall) going around the room to bring it together.

It feels a bit unbalanced the way it's laid out, especially with the loo in the middle of a long wall. I'd add a couple of tall plants, some wooden accessories, a shelf with towels. The shower cubicle looks a bit squashed, how about a mirror next to it to open up the space? And a chair to fill in the gaps.

I'm sure it will grow on you in time

I would have had more tiles, it looks like a rental or a hotel bathroom and you didn’t want to spend much money on it. Maybe get a big plant on the window sill and put something on the walls

The tiles neither match nor contrast against the wall paint. A feature wall could be nice. And a large plant in a beautiful pot (or even hanging plants) will give the bathroom life.

I would put a big pot plant where the bin is and put the bin the other side of the toilet

Possibly change the paint colour - I'm not sure the creamy white does with the white white of the tiles?

Definitely paint the walls a different colour. Teal would be nice.

The ‘bath gap’ isn’t ‘odd’. It isn’t a gap, it’s a freestanding bath & it’s lovely.

What is it that YOU don’t like?

What’s different than YOU pictured?

It's gorgeous! Some nice towels, matching colour rug to break up the white, but it's really lovely.
I know how your feeling though, we spent thousands on a new fitted kitchen that I had longed for and when it was done all I wanted was to change the colours of the doors and worktop etc. I love it now though, with personalised bits it finally feels like mine

Bath is a D shape one so same gap either end. I don't like the wall colour at all I wanted a warm honey type colour but didn't get a tester (grrr) and it looks magnolia to me! Dh doesn't agree! He likes it but he would say that as he does the decorating.
I think we should have tiled all the way up the window wall do you agree? Not too late to change stuff at the moment.. Just inconvenient and money we don't have really!

I would have gone for coloured or mosaic tiles in a contrasting colour, like black, gold and silver, or a blue theme. I think that would have lifted the whole bathroom. Having said that, it still looks lush and lovely and if you simply accessorise with striking contrast colours for towels, the blind, shelf unit etc it will be gorgeous!

You don't like it because it's new and not cosy yet. Get some pictures on the wall and some colourful towels in and I'm sure you'll like it

It's fine, it's just "fresh from the showroom" and lifeless. If it were mine I would:

paint over the builder's magnolia with either fresh white (for a clean backdrop for all the ~stuff that ends up cluttering a bathroom), or a bold colour, if that's your jam – dark, moody green, or a v pale pink (not sugary, more like dusty rose).

Add some open shelving on the loo/bath wall and fill with plants.

Put up framed poster print (nothing you won't mind binning in a decade when it's all moulds)

Nice towels, bathmat, products, scented candle, etc.

I just had the exact same reaction to my new bathroom, but a big green fern on the windowsill, a scented candle and a jaunty shower curtain on a tension rod brought it all to life.

I think it's the colour of the floor - it's very stark in contrast to the white ceramic ware. Put some colour in - something bright like mustard, lime, turquoise or cerise. Bath mats, towels and a blind?

Floor is wooden vinyl click stuff

Freestanding wasn’t the right word. I can’t think what they’re called. But they’re designed to have space around each end like that

It looks like any hotel bathroom tbh.

But it has lovely clean lines, so all you need is some personalisation I reckon. It'll look stunning then.

I wouldn't go changing any colours on the walls until you've put your own touch in there. Then if you need something else I'd suggest some kind of mural maybe, rather than a picture.

It looks really nice, I'd say the floor or wall colour need changing

i’d suggest plants and more tiles especially at the sink for splashes, maybe with dark grout?
