Bathroom suite is similar to the one in the pic and we're having one painted wall. Looking for a 20s/30s vibe and I'm thinking a bit of an off white but not sure whether to go warm or cool. Bathroom faces south so there's plenty of light.

Thanks!

i would say an off-white too.

but it might look too clinical.

a red maybe?

or this purple

Dulux do a nice off-white colour called Timeless that's quite soft. More like a cream but a white-cream rather than a yellow-cream.

If you're going more Art-Deco you could go quite vibrant with a stronger colour such as yellow or orange. Or be really retro and go for black!

Thanks for the tips everyone and for fixing the links nickelbabe! I think I may be a little timid for the bright colours, although they look amazing. Especially that aubergine purple. Timeless looks good as it's warm without being a buttery cream colour.
