And if you are here reading this post, you have probably realized that it is worth betting on this trend. But why, anyway?
We will tell you next, come and see.
Why you should have a gray bathroom
Trend that is here to stay
It is not all about passing fads. The gray bathroom is a great example. That’s because color inspires modernity, style and sophistication, everything we always look for in an environment, right?
This, in fact, is a great alternative to the classic white and beige, colors that hitherto prevailed in bathrooms. Therefore, if you want to bring a modern and elegant touch to your bathroom, but without running away from calm and neutrality, gray is one of the best options.
Modern
We already said, but it doesn’t hurt to repeat. The gray bathroom is modern in nature. It is impossible not to associate color with this decorative style.
Gray is the color of modern materials, such as stainless steel and metal, in addition to being the color of concrete and burnt cement. In fact, color can and should be incorporated into the project from these materials, but we will talk about that later.
Small bathroom friendly
Gray, in its medium and light shades, is a perfect color for small bathrooms, since it tends to visually enlarge the environments when receiving and diffusing light.
Versatile
The gray color touches any project, from classic and rustic to modern, although the latter receives greater prominence.
Gray can be used as a main color in modern bathrooms, for example, but it can also appear as a supporting color in more classic proposals.
The gray bathroom is also very popular in projects that follow the minimalist and industrial style. That is, there are plenty of options for this type of bathroom.
Not everything needs to be gray
The gray bathroom does not have to be completely gray. The color harmonizes very well with other colors and this is great, after all, it allows you to create different color palettes for the bathroom decoration.
A good example is the use of gray with white and black or gray with woody elements. But the color can go further and mix with warm and vibrant colors, such as yellow and even pink.
Or, if you prefer, you can bet on cooler tones, but still very interesting, like blue and green.
Gray bathroom: tips and ideas to make yours
You don’t need to renovate your entire bathroom to add color to your decor, unless you want to. There are other (much simpler) options for bringing gray to the bathroom. Check out all the tips:
Painting
One of the easiest ways to insert gray in the bathroom is by painting the walls.
If they are covered with tiles, the tip is to use epoxy paint to cover the ceramics. If the wall is made of masonry, then just apply a good quality acrylic paint and that’s it.
Ceramic tiles
But if you do not mind breaking the break, then the tip is to invest in gray ceramic tiles, both on the floor and on the walls.
Nowadays there are dozens of different options that fit all tastes and pockets.
Simple ceramics of rectangular pieces are included in the list, as well as inserts and ceramics with a different design, such as subway tiles and hydraulic tiles.
Porcelain tiles are also a great option, especially if you want to invest in different textures, such as those similar to wood or stones.
Crockery
The tub and sanitary ware can also bring the shade of gray into the bathroom, forming a harmonious composition with the coverings and furniture.
Furniture
And speaking of furniture, already know that nowadays it is possible to choose cabinets, cabinets, niches and bathroom shelves in gray.
If you opt for a bespoke project, made in planned joinery, you get more options of tones and finishes.
Accessories
But if what you really want is an express makeover, then the tip is to renovate the bathroom with details and accessories.
Take the gray to the environment by means of towels, rugs, hygiene kits and other elements that can be both decorative and functional.
