Love the black tile wall

4 years ago

With a black wall on one side , what colour would you use to balance the other side of the bathroom . A heavy vanity with a black wall looks great but don't want it to look unbalanced . Any suggestions?

We used a light marble that had some gray in it to play off the black/white wall.

Don't forget that towel colors and other furnishings can make a big impact, too. Doesn't have to just be the wall/floor materials.
