Pastel Power

This season’s trends involve bold, vibrant colours, but with spring firmly on our doorstep, why not decorate your bathroom with soft shades?

Pastel Bathroom

Pastel colours instantly create a calming atmosphere. It also creates an everlasting freshness to your bathroom. Creating a space that evokes relaxation will ease you into your day and also help you unwind after a long day.

Check out our ideas for utilising pastels effectively…

Pastel on White

Pairing pastels with crisp white allows them to dazzle. Soft hues, including light pink, mint and lemon, can be featured on walls with sparkling white fixtures. Accents of pastel can be featured in a room comprised of white walls, like in the bathroom below.

Either combination is particularly effective if you’re stuck for space.

Blue Bathroom

A smaller bathroom is enhanced with the soothing colour palette as it opens up a room allowing light to flow through.

Stencil and Stripe Bathroom

Mixing colours with various patterns – such as stripes or stencil work – adds interest to the room, without tarnishing the calming atmosphere. To create a touch of elegance include floral furnishings and accessories, like the image below.

Pastel with Bright

For some drama, combine pastel shades with splashes of bright colour, such as neon. It’s a significant contemporary design trend that allows for pastel to come alive in a room, whilst providing a unique twist.

Off-White Bathroom

A selection of off-whites can create the same impact as colour. It epitomises relaxation with its subtlety. Soft greys can also be effective. The other option is to go all out. Featuring one pastel throughout the area can accomplish a strong statement. The key to this succeeding is using diverse surfaces, such as patterned wallpaper, sleek tiles and textured towels, to create a unified look.

Lavender Bathroom

If you want to feature more than one pastel colour, then provide a concentration in a particular space in your room.
