Fill your home with the vibrant colors of this cheerful time of year and remember that natural tones never go out of style.
Today we would like to talk about three of the hottest colors that will make the bathroom the most popular place among your family members.
Features of turquoise color in bathroom design
Today, such a light color is very often used by designers to decorate rooms. The main rule when choosing it is to know and put into practice the features of the shade. This tone can be used as the main background in decorating a living space. But it is very important to remember that if a dark shade dominates, you can achieve a visual reduction in area, while light shades, on the contrary, increase the square meters.
The turquoise palette contains both light and dark shades
The gamma combines perfectly and harmoniously with other colors. In order for the area in the apartment to be filled with home comfort, it is recommended to combine cold turquoise with warm tones.
Subtleties of choosing colors
As you can see in the photo of the gray bathroom, this color may well be the base color. However, a bathroom decorated exclusively in gray tones will look gloomy and boring. To prevent this from happening, it is necessary to add splashes of other colors to the interior.
Gray is a neutral tone. It is “friendly” with almost all colors, which opens up wide possibilities for flights of fancy.
In addition, this color has the ability to visually expand space. And if you use its gradient, you can hide planning defects.
The gray palette is distinguished by its practicality. Dust and dirt are hardly noticeable on this finish. This tone is also not subject to fading.
The interior of a gray bathroom can be supplemented with metal decorative elements. These could be toothbrush holders, soap dishes, toilet paper holders, etc.
Metallic goes very well with gray trim, adding style and elegance to the whole environment.
Combination of turquoise with other palettes
The color is rightfully considered universal. Combinations with other different tones can demonstrate unusual, sophisticated solutions. For example, a great variation is created by combining this shade with brown.

An excellent solution can be obtained by combining equal proportions of this range with beige paint. This way the interior will be filled with home comfort and lightness, especially if beige is used as a background. An interesting project would be a room where approximate palettes are used, for example, green, blue, blue. The last tone will complement the bathroom with marine notes. When choosing more saturated scales, you will get energetic consonance.
Light turquoise shades combine perfectly with beige tones
Muted purple and turquoise create a unique combination. If you choose bright colors, the area will sparkle with dramatic and colorful emotions. It is important to consider here that a lot of purple accents can be tiring and make a turquoise bathroom less cozy.
It is advisable to use purple color as a few accents
Shades of solid wood perfectly complement the finish; for example, light colors will become even more delicate and airy. For a more exclusive interior design, red, orange and ocher-yellow elements are suitable. The brighter the accessories and furniture, the more unique the bathroom will be.
Wooden furniture will look great against the background of turquoise tiles
The most successful combination is turquoise and snow-white tone. This is considered a classic in design.
On a white background, the turquoise color reveals itself to be truly beautiful and attractive.
By experimenting with the proportions of paints, you can achieve completely different visual perception zones. The base can be either white or turquoise. The overall atmosphere of the room depends on this decision, but the result will still be spectacular and incredibly beautiful.
Furniture selection
The main attribute of this room is the bath. It can be presented in oval, rectangular, angular or round shape. If the dimensions of the room allow, then it is often placed away from the walls.
The furniture is selected to be moisture-resistant; furniture elements include bedside tables, mirror cabinets, pencil cases and shelves for hygiene products and household chemicals. They are selected taking into account the style direction. So, for classics and Provence, wooden products are purchased, for minimalism - plastic and metal, and exquisite bookcases fit well into the vintage style.
Furniture presented in turquoise color should differ from the background by several tones. For example, shelves and cabinets in ultramarine shade go well with snow-white wall trim. For retro style, furniture in rich turquoise color is selected, and for classics, furniture in light turquoise tones is more suitable.
