White Kohler toilet vs biscuit

13 years ago

I am building a new home and most of the bathrooms have beige/tan color tiles. Would you match the toilet to that and go witha biscuit color or would you go with white everywhere to match the baseboards? What is the more modern way to do it? I guess it also is not just toilets it goes for the sink and bathtubs also. Thank you

Personally I am a white fixture or nothing person - you don't need to match your tiles. Browse the houzz bathrooms its pretty rare you see anything other than white.

(The exception for me would be something like a vessel sink or an interesting tub, but as a general matter white)

I think it depends on your intended style. White is more stark, and if you're going very modern you might want that. Bisque is softer and blends more easily with many other colors. Sounds like bisque would blend better with your beige tiles............

I like white. It's classic and 10 years from now you won't be wanting to change it.

I would go with white. It will definitely enhance the modern feel that you are going for. It's clean and simple.
