Green bathroom: how to decorate

Green is nature's own colour — calming, restful and one of the few hues almost no one tires of. From sage to deep forest green, it works in nearly every home.

How green works in the bathroom

In the bathroom, green works best via towels, a plant and perhaps green tile in a niche — natural materials soften the hard surfaces.

Keep in mind what's specific to this room: that tile and porcelain are fixed, so colour comes via textiles and detail. That decides how much colour can show and where it does the most good.

Colours that pair well with green

Green loves warm wood, off-white, beige and brass. For more contrast, deep terracotta or navy work beautifully.

Materials and details

Natural materials lift green: oak and rattan, linen and wool, with brass or antique gold in the details.

The most common mistake

Choosing too yellow or neon a shade — muted, dusty greens age better and read as more expensive.

See green in the bathroom — before you paint

The hard thing about colour is that it looks completely different in different light and rooms. Instead of gambling on a tin of paint: upload a photo of the bathroom and type "repaint the bathroom in green". In a minute you'll see the result in your own light — and can try several shades before deciding.
