Whether you prefer neutral shades or bright tones, discover the best colours to pair with a black bathroom to find your perfect shade combination.

Darker colours are one of the top bathroom trends for 2023, adding a luxurious and modern touch to your home. Black bathrooms are also easier to keep clean than white, meaning you won’t have to redecorate as often, especially in busy family bathrooms where wear and tear is likely. 

Black and neutral bathroom ideas

From eye-catching black and gold designs to minimalist black and grey colour schemes, explore our favourite black and neutral bathroom ideas here.

Black and grey

Grey bathrooms are modern yet timeless, and incorporating black adds depth to your space. Whether you opt for grey walls, flooring or cabinetry, introduce black accents with fixtures, lighting and bathroom accessories. Alternatively, black and grey patterned tiles or wallpaper make a striking feature wall.

Black and white

Black and white bathrooms are an excellent choice for ensuites and family bathrooms. Whether you choose black and white checkerboard tiles, printed wallpaper or black fixtures, there are several ways to create a unique monochrome bathroom.

Black and gold

Black and gold bathrooms are luxurious and add warmth to your space. Gold fixtures and accessories like frames, mirrors and lighting will pop against black walls and flooring. To fully embrace this colour scheme, choose a black bathtub, sink and shower tray, making gold taps and showerheads stand out.

Black and beige

Black and beige bathrooms are a great combination if you prefer a lighter colour scheme. Beige is a warmer alternative to grey or white and pairs perfectly with black in any bathroom. Opt for beige walls, tiles, flooring and soft furnishings, then introduce black accents with taps, showerheads and lighting.

Black and bright bathroom ideas

If bright colours are your favourite, pair them with black to create a unique bathroom design. Since black is neutral, it complements most colours, including pink and green.

Black and pink

Pink and black bathrooms are stylish and modern, with many ways to utilize this colour scheme throughout your space. Soft pink shades pair best with black, whether paint or tiles. Then choose black fixtures like taps, showerheads and lighting. Alternatively, you could add black panelling to the lower half of the wall or black cabinetry for a cohesive and luxurious finish.

Black and green

Green and black bathrooms are a luxurious, stylish choice in any home. Choose dark green shades to create a cosy, spa-like atmosphere in your bathroom, whether tiles or paint. Black or gold fixtures will complement the design, while plants can add depth to the space with various green shades.

If black and green make your space feel too dark, try a black, white and green bathroom instead. White fixtures like sinks, toilets, baths and shower trays, or white tiled flooring will brighten the space, letting green and black accents pop.
