paint colour for wall
Hi I am after some advice... I love the rustic look / feel of these tiles and want to compliment them but am not sure wether to paint the walls in the ensuite a navy to add to the look or another colour? the cabinet handles will be changed to gold and the towel rail will be going too.
I will also put up a gold/ bronze mirror eventually.

How gorgeous is your en-suite, I would go with your instinct and do a Matt navy on the walls, it would certainly add the wow factor and with the gold fixtures and mirror , white basin and vanity it would look fabulous.C R thanked julie herbertC R

I'd go for a deep blue/grey (think Blue Steel tones) Check out Glide Time from Dulux. If you didn't want to do that, perhaps a pale blue. Look at Pool Bar from Dulux. This colour would look lovely with the brass gold tones. Good luck!

Forfatter4 år sidenterracotta wall · Mere informationok im not sure why that grey tile is sitting there on the shower wall.. just ignore it:) what do you think of the terraotta wall maybe in a texture? Otherwise I tried to see the look with a dirty grey/brown.. because I want to stick to the rustic look.

4 år siden<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><md>To complement the brown in tiles see the brown in the artwork in Julie’s images. Those frames are black, which I think would be good if you have gold mirror frame. Too much gold not a good thingsiriuskey

4 år sidenI Agree with KK1000 & Julie - the navy blue will look fabulous. If you want to bring out the brown, consider it when selecting accessories; Julie's image is a great example of artwork in the space. I'd consider a feature light in either side of the basin if you have the room (its hard to tell from the photo) or perhaps above the mirror. The navy will be quite dark and you can add a bit of wow with a light as well as give some illumination for applying makeup etc from the right direction. Assuming of course that the shower will have a glass panel (to keep water away from any electrical fixtures)? Seek guidance from your electrical on the appropriate zones for elec fixtures and IP ratings suitable to the installation.
