Transform Overlooked Guest Spaces with Fired Earth’s Bold Colours
Guest spaces are often overlooked, but they hold so much potential. Whether it’s the guest bathroom or spare bedroom, these spaces offer the perfect canvas for a little creativity and colour. With Fired Earth’s range of paints, even the smallest updates can make a world of difference.
Guest Bathrooms: Warm, Welcoming, and Far from Boring
Bathrooms are no longer the purely functional spaces they once were. The goal? Create cohesion with the rest of your home while adding warmth and personality.
Here’s how:
- Work with what you have: Use existing features like flooring, tiles, or fittings as a starting point for your colour palette. This creates a sense of cohesion and makes your design feel intentional.
- Go bold but balanced: If you’re introducing rich, saturated colours, balance them with lighter tones (like crisp white ceilings or upper walls) to maintain a sense of space and brightness.
- Choose the right paint for the job: Opt for a durable, easy-to-apply enamel like Fired Earth Non-Drip Enamel for walls and even tiles. Just make sure surfaces are properly cleaned and primed before painting for the best results. Remember to clean walls and tiles with sugar soap before painting – it’s key to a flawless finish.
- Layer in texture and detail: Think golden towel hooks, a textured non-slip mat, wicker baskets, and colour-coordinated hand towels. Small touches go a long way.
Guest Bedrooms: Spaces to Play with Personality
The guest bedroom is your chance to explore. Since you don’t live in it every day, you can be a little braver with your choices.
- Dial up the colour: Fired Earth’s range of bold hues adds instant drama and depth.
- Lean into mood: Go floral and feminine or rich and masculine – whatever reflects your style.
- Let your imagination lead; Bold walls, layered textiles, and statement art can turn a spare room into a standout retreat.With a few key updates, Fired Earth makes it easy to create spaces your guests will remember.
