Homes & Garden: Colors to Transform Your Bathroom

Soft, nearly neutral shades can bring you just as much joy as a brilliant yellow. And if you are after more of a spa bathroom feel, sticking with these gentler shades would be the best option. Super pale, barely there blues and greens mix with warm neutrals like cream and beige creating a serene color scheme that's so relaxing it's guaranteed to make you feel happy. 

'We look at light in each space, and let that guide us in terms of color choices. We tend to prioritize variations in texture, too, all of which act as a starting point for bathroom color schemes,' explains TANYA SELWAY, co-principal of STELLY SELWAY. 'In this project, we used Zellige tiles in blues across a range of tonal finishes, mixed with slightly different shades to create a subtle sense of depth along the wall and in nooks. It offered a dose of calm, and remained bright and sunny.'
