Bathroom ~ what colour(s)?

9 replies

I need a little help deciding what colour to use in my bathroom.
I have a Victorian property decorated mainly with browns beiges and metallic colours.
The main feature of the bathroom is a Burlington claw footed bath with chrome fittings and i have also purchased some brown cement tiles.
The room itself is quite large and light.
I'd like to make it cosy and luxurious but i'm unsure how to tie in the tiles with the bath.
Any ideas?

Mmm I'd probably go for some kind of warm browny green colour with brown tiles. Like an olive leaf type colour.

Olive sounds nice. More relaxing than orange.

F & B Hague Blue.

I don't think chrome claws would go with the orange. I'd go for the olive green or the blue. Blue and brown are lovely together, but blue is cold and maybe a bit predictable for a bathroom. My bathroom is dark cream, slightly peachy!

F & B Hague blue looks a bit too dark but lovely colour!
F & B olive however might just be THE colour.
I have pine doors and the room itself has a sloping ceiling,this will be white....
Nice combination don't you think??
Thanks for your help!!
