1 Choose interesting textures
This advice is always relevant. But when it comes to the design of the bathroom in gray-white color, it literally becomes the rule.
In itself, gray shades in combination with white may look pretty dimly and flat. And if you do not like such an effect, interesting textures come to the rescue.
What materials should be used
- One of the most pressing materials today is a stone. This is marble, and granite, and, of course, their artificial analogues. In the bathroom, the texture of the stone is easy to reproduce with porcelain stoneware or tiles with a corresponding print. And in the monochrome gamma they look very organic.
- Concrete is another fashion finish. Such material is not suitable for each bathroom. But if the bathroom is spacious, consider a spectacular accent for the wall.
- The tree is a wonderful material for softening the monochrome base palette. In combination of gray, white and wood can not be mistaken. It is not always possible to use natural material in the bathroom, so porcelain tags comes to the rescue. Sometimes it is impossible to distinguish it in the photo from the present.
2 Use prints in the bathroom in gray-white colors
Pattern tile is a great reception to create an accent. Active contrast patterns are suitable, and more neutral.
The main advantage of the material is its versatility. Tile can be used to decorate small planes of the type of screen of the bathroom or one zone, for example, in the shower. And you can fasten the floor or the whole wall.
The most relevant geometric prints and abstract. Patchwork performed without color also looks good.
3 Combine finish
One of the key principles of modern finishing is a combination of materials. Registration with one type of tile looks not only at the same time, but flat and quite boring. The combination allows you to profitably change the proportions of the room if they are incorrect. A narrow room is visually done wider, and close - spacious. And in general, it looks like the interior of such a gray-white bathroom is more dynamic.
Actual combinations
- The simplest solution is an accent wall. The choice of the side depends on the room: most often thus make up the space near the bath or in the shower. More modest option - screen.
- The combination of verticals is a professional designer reception. Thus, the room is often zonied: the wall near the bath is finished with one type of tile, near the toilet - another, the storage system is highlighted in color and so on. Zones may differ, but the principle is one. If you decide to use such a finish, be sure to count the combination of materials before buying, make the layout to understand how the textures will look together.
You can combine different types of tiles: for example, a neat boar and a pedestal mosaic along with a large stonework under a tree or stone. And you can combine materials: painted walls, decoration under concrete and tile.
How to combine different materials in small and large bathrooms
When choosing basic building materials, be sure to consider the area of the room, consider the lighting system. From this, the color transitions and contrast of the finish are dependent.
- If the bathroom is small, it is better to use the most close shades: white and very light gray.
- In the dark execution, the base will perform a voyage or, for example, asphalt, necessarily a few shades. From white it is better to refuse to finish the walls, maximum - to use in accents.
- In spacious rooms from 6 square meters. Meters can be taste more bold contrasting techniques: combine dark and light tones, alternate them with prints.
4 Add color
The bathroom in gray and white is the most neutral base. It can actually add any tone to it, and it will look harmonious. We have only a few recommendations.
- Soft pastel today is more relevant to clean shades. Such interior looks more good and calmer. Lemon, gentle pink, light blue, mint green - choose any muffled complex tone.
- The same principle applies to the dark shades. Instead of cobalt, it is better to choose a dark blue, purple replace eggplant, and a green bottle.
- You should not be limited to one tone, try the combination of two-three shades. But in this case, as a base, it is better to use white or light gray, that is, it should be at least 60% design.
- Tones can be selected with the help of a circle of yttn: a triad, a contrast couple and so on.
5 Do not be afraid of bold solutions
Non-obvious solutions are often becoming a business card of the interior decorated in neutral tones. Especially if we are talking about minimalism.
One of these techniques is a white tile with a gray or colored grout in the bathroom. But the seams should be dark, the most contrasting. Otherwise, they will look dirty, and the whole picture is spoiled. The tone of the grout must be duplicated in finishing, furniture or decor - it concerns color options.
Another interesting reception is a set of black plumbing. In monochrome interiors, the dark bowl, sink and toilet look as elegant and stylish as possible. But note that it is more difficult to care for them: lime raids and traces from droplets on such surfaces is clearly noticeable, especially on matte. The choice of models should not be called wide. Yes, and the price of such a plumbing is higher than on standard white or dairy.
6 Do not forget about the details.
Unless you are a fan of minimalism. It is the details that create comfort, and sometimes they are necessary in the design, devoid of paints.What accessories can be used
- Supplement the texture of the tree wicker baskets and boxes: for linen, for example, or just as decor.
- Greens - good monochrome decoration. Without natural light, the drazes, Hovy, Philadandron, Ivy and some other plants will certainly live.
- Stylish cosmetics bottles placed on open shelves can also be considered a decor as a towel. Follow the order.
