Help on the guest bathroom

13 years ago

I'm updating my guest bathroom but got stuck on the color choice. I just put black galaxy granite with two white porcelain square vessel sinks and chrome faucet. I'm adding two Framed mirrors. I'm not sure what tone of tan/brown color I should do the walls?? Any other suggestion of colors?

What color is the adjoining room? You can use similar shades from the same color strip or if this is a guest powder room, take a leap into something more dramatic. Black works with everything.

What about wallpaper? It's a great fit for bathrooms and adds a lot of bang for the buck. I would consider painting the vanity, which would open up a lot of design choices for you, and upgrade the cabinet hardware-- adding pulls to the top panel, even if it's not a functioning drawer.

Mosaic tiles would be very pretty. Maybe around the mirror above the sink than up the wall. I am drawn to vertical.
