According to the experts at Realtor.com, black bathrooms are emerging as a popular trend this year. This trend began as a counter to the classic all-white interior design. Many homeowners like a dark color scheme because it can make a home feel chic and modern. In today’s post, DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of Orland Park, one of the top bathroom remodeling contractors in our area, gives tips to help you design a black bathroom.
Use Metal Accents
Metal finishes can add a luxe look to any black bathroom and make it appear more sophisticated and beautiful. For instance, gold finishes add some much-needed warmth. Copper, pewter and gunmetal finishes are a good choice as well. Consider using these finishes for wall sconces, waste cans, faucets and showerheads.
Use a Variety of Finishes
Black bathrooms can appear monochromatic so you need to incorporate finishes and fixtures that add visual interest. One idea is to use a matte tile on the floor while using a glossy finish on the shower wall tiles. This texture variation will make your black bathroom look and feel more dramatic. You should also remember that black comes in many different shades and depths. Use these different shades to add some visual variety to your bathroom.
Make Good Lighting a Priority
You must have good lighting to make a black bathroom look fantastic. Poor lighting will make a black bathroom look dark, stuffy and uncomfortable. Consider using overhead lights and wall sconces, particularly if the surfaces in the bathroom are nonreflective. You should also use light bulbs with a warm light to avoid creating stark shadows.
