Need help choosing bathroom paint?

Question

Adjoining bedroom is painted pine needle green with pure white trim and woodwork. Need a color for the bathroom that wont clash with the bedroom paint. Any ideas would be helpful. No reds tho.

Answer 1

Find your pine needle green color on a color palet and look at the complimentary colors that they suggest using with it. You can find these at any paint store or store that sells paint. Good luck.

Answer 2

I wouldn't go very green in the bathroom, because that will make your skin tone appear greenish when you use the mirror. It has to do with the way the light is reflected off the wall color and into the mirror. In the bathroom, you have to think about the space being somewhat "isolated" -- and it depends on your light sources (whether you have windows in there, or just artificial light, and how much of each one). It almost sounds like you should switch the colors -- do the beige in the bathroom and the green in the kitchen. (You can still add some nice color to your bathroom using accessories like towels, artwork, etc.) Kitchens can usually take more lively or vivid colors, if that is your style. Make sure the color in the kitchen doesn't clash with the dining room; it should "flow" together nicely (usually, unless you have a flair for the dramatic). You can also try some "virtual samples" on any of the major paint brand websites like Behr, etc. Good luck! :)

Answer 3

How about another shade of green that would compliment the bedroom, like a olive or mossy green. Also a light brown might look nice. Like a coffee with cream color.

Answer 4

to make it flow, go ahead and pull the same green into the bathroom, you can use different decor.
You could even do 3 walls in the pine green, one in white and accent the white wall with pine green/brown/taupe colors.

Answer 5

i was going to suggest a pastel green but the bedroom is already green.

what about burnt umber colour? or winter cloud colour?

or what about a very light apricot going on pink colour with a cherrywood trim?

tricky question

Answer 6

not sure the bedroom color but maybe a lite blue or a light green. more soothing colors.

Answer 7

for the sophisticated look, go for textured black tiles, clean white walls (not tiles, use water-proof paint), and brown-black counter cabinets...i have visited a lot of showrooms and this is the best color theme that really stands out! clean lines, fresh-looking and crisp. goodluck!

Answer 8

Taupe

Answer 9

you could go with a lighter green or a very light almost white blue would be pretty

Answer 10

A pale turquoise is beautiful in a bathroom. Not only is it relaxing, it is also very clean and cheerful.
