Classic and versatile: A bathroom in black and white

Bathrooms as we know them today serve far more than just a functional hygiene purpose. The tiled 4 walls have long since transformed into a decorative oasis of well-being. Those who like it contrasting and classic opt for a bathroom in black and white. A design that is colorless as well as timeless and definitely belongs to the trends of 2022. With a black and white bathroom, sensuality, cozy flair, and a special lifestyle move into the bathing area.

But what should you consider when setting up a black and white bathroom? What advantages does such a contrasting bathroom offer? And how do you prevent the beautiful oasis of well-being from looking bleak and dark?

Black or white base?

If you are considering a black and white bathroom, it is important to know the effect of each base color. Black tiles with white bathroom elements - this combination is timelessly elegant. Tiles can be well combined with white bathroom furniture such as towel racks or mirrors. For example, white high-gloss furniture against a black wall looks particularly stylish. In addition, dark rooms radiate a special warmth and coziness.

Black bathroom furniture against plain white walls creates exciting contrasts. In addition, black accents appear clear and tidy. Black bathroom furniture and black fittings are perfect if you want to furnish your bathroom in a minimalist style. A special eye-catcher is, for example, a black ceramic sink, which looks good against a white background even in a small bathroom.

Speaking of which: You should keep small bathrooms in a light tone and rather work with dark accents, as too much black can be oppressive here. If you have a rather spacious bathroom, you can indulge in dark tiles. Dark bathroom furniture and larger bathroom elements such as a dark shower curtain look stylish rather than cramped in a large bathroom.However, bear in mind that black tiles require more intensive care, as limescale stains are easier to see.

But whether it's black with white or white with black - which combination you choose is absolutely a matter of taste!

Black and white is versatile

A black and white bathroom may seem a bit colorless and dreary at first glance. But far from it: this two-tone style for the wet area can do more than you think. Because the two non-colors black and white provide the perfect basis for setting color accents.

In combination with splashes of color like the trendy green or a warm rose tone, colorful textiles like towels are particularly highlighted.And the best part? You can change your accent color at any time! Simply swap the green towels or the rosé-colored carpet for a new color and a whole new atmosphere is created.

Black is back: Matte black is the new chrome!

Especially the color black is an absolute trend in the bathroom for 2022. This applies to sanitary ceramics such as sinks, bathtubs and toilets as well as bathroom fittings and furniture. Many models are available with a black matte coating.

Black and white combination

Metal furniture in the contrast bathroom provides clear structures. You can highlight the classic black and white look through combinations with natural materials like wood. Wood gives the clear look a cozy touch. Particularly suitable are warm wood tones like light beech or spruce as well as reddish chestnut or maple. Small standing shelves or washbasin cabinets made of metal with wood make the black and white image homely.

Elements in silver and gold, on the other hand, give the room a noble touch.Here, vases, wall lamps or even toothbrush cups or bathroom fittings in gold or silver are suitable. The glamorous gold and silver go perfectly with black and white, but be careful: less is more!
