Bathroom Fusion: Master Monochromatic Design With Bathroom Butler
Single colour interiors are a bold, vibrant choice for any room. Here is how to create a monochromatic bathroom for a dramatic and surprisingly appealing look and feel.
The basics
In a monochromatic bathroom one single colour acts as the primary choice and driver behind the bathroom’s design and overall style. Begin by picking a base colour. The next step is to pick lighter and darker variations of that colour as options. These variations may be used on accent walls, or trim, or in bathroom accessories or accents within the room creating a sophisticated and modern look.
Black and white monochromatic bathrooms
A sure-fire formula for a black and white monochromatic bathroom is starting with a white colour base. Play with tile patterns and tile sizes or the direction the tiles are laid use rectangular subway, hexagonal or square are increasingly popular. Introduce a mix of textures matte black accent finishes i.e. bathroom accessories, tapware and heated towel rails. The matte black finish gives pieces a textured look that practically begs to be touched. This tactile feel is one of the reasons why designers are drawn to it. Other black details can come in through black framed mirrors, lamps, storage cabinets or the décor.
Black beauty
Using black as an accent colour in a monochromatic black and white bathroom adds a sense of sophistication to the design with touches of elegance and timelessness, especially when paired with marble surfaces. Matt black bathroom accessories as accent pieces are exceptionally popular because of their trend appeal, they work well with contemporary styles and are visually interesting.
Single colour monochromatic bathrooms
With single colour monochromatic bathrooms, it is important to bring in differing textures and shades of the colour to add interest and dimension into the space. Go bold and dramatic with a deep shade of blue for example, which helps establish a feeling of serenity. Pair two darker tones for a striking look or balance it out with pops of a lighter shade for a little more playfulness. For added interest try opting for different textures and tiles, varying textures offer sense of depth and sophistication to the space. This prevents the bathroom from coming across as cold and flat.
Finishing touches
When creating a single colour monochromatic bathroom, it is also important to pay attention to the natural elements used, like wood, concrete and metal, as well as the hardware – as these will form part of the colour palette too. For example, select your bathroom accessories and floor tiles together to see how the colours play off each other, keeping in mind that bathroom accessories now come in a variety of finishes such as Brushed Bronze, Matte Black, Brushed Stainless Steel and these new finishes will form part of your colour scheme.
