Subdued shades of white have long-established themselves as a staple in home decor, taking charge within schemes of neutrals and timeless hues. We’re looking to impart the palette with a modern update by opting for shades that come with creamy undertones and stone-inspired accents. These colors work best within a bathroom that skews more towards the contemporary aesthetic, which will allow for the subtle warmth of the shades to offset the rigidness of the decor scheme.

A true blue is about as classic as it gets, especially when it comes to decorating the bathroom – this spot in Charleston is only proof. Elevate the effect of the wall paint by opting for a low key color block featuring two similar shades of a complementary scheme. In this bathroom, black and white floor tiles focalize the finish of the paint setting the tone for the remaining elements of the room.

For those whose color preferences skew towards the warmer tones, here’s one shade you should be seriously considering for the bathroom. This dusty blush pairs well with an off-white palette and invites in the opportunity to layer the look with warm wood accents and rustic details.
