Bathroom Paint Colors & the Moods They Evoke



Whether you’re looking for a tranquil, spa-like ambiance or a design scheme that exudes personality, paint is a vital element that can help you achieve your goals for your bathroom space. But if you’re having a hard time deciding on a color, the bathroom renovation specialists from DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Reno are here to guide you. We highlight some of the best paint colors that can go well in your bathroom.

Neutral Shades

Neutrals are a staple in many bathroom remodeling design plans. These muted, natural colors help create calm, inviting and clean spaces. One notable paint color to consider is gray. It can elevate the look and feel of bathroom spaces as long as you pick the right shade. Saturated shades of gray on the upper half of the walls can be paired with rich wood tones in vanity cabinets to give your bathroom a bold look without using splashy colors. White on the wall’s lower half balances everything out to ensure the space doesn’t feel too drab.

Another neutral hue to consider is taupe. Available in many different shades, this color can evoke many different moods. Taupe that’s more on the brown side offers an earthier look. For a moodier, more modern appearance, use the grayer version.

Elegant Hues

For an airier and more spacious feel in your bathroom, go for the classic white color scheme. However, it is not without its trade-offs, particularly the fact that you need to make a greater effort to clean and maintain a white space. To make it look more vibrant, try breaking down the white elements using different textures and patterns. White with matching wood and neutral tones adds warmth to the space.

If you want white that’s easy on the eyes and not as overpowering, choose creamy white for your bathroom remodel. While more subdued, it remains in sync with the aesthetic of the white bathroom. It pairs well with soft pastel colors and metallic finishes.

Nature-Inspired Tones

The bathroom is a place for relaxation and comfort, which is why it only makes sense to incorporate paint colors that remind you of nature and the outdoors. Light green evokes a lush, refreshing vibe, especially when combined with neutral elements like white and beige. There are plenty of choices for this particular color, including lime, mint, pistachio and chartreuse.

You can’t go wrong with the lighter side of blue as well. One that mimics the color of the sky can be juxtaposed with white accents to achieve an aesthetic that captures the soothing effect you feel when you watch clouds roll by on a bright day.
