Here are a few simple tips on how to decorate a Mediterranean bathroom:
- Get some inspiration. A Mediterranean bathroom can mean a lot of things, although it has some general characteristics. It would be good to look at various interior design magazines to get an idea of what design you want. It will also help you get a few ideas on how to accessorize your bathroom.
- Paint the walls of your bathroom a light, earthy color. Usually, white wash is used for Mediterranean style rooms because they give a simpler, more rustic feel. When choosing a color palette or scheme for your bathroom, make sure that you keep it very simple and all in the same color family. Little bursts of vivid color are also used in Mediterranean style bathrooms. You can paint a few borders in bright colors like blue, green or red to accentuate the walls. It would be best to add a few details to the borders, to really add an authentic feel.
- Use the right tiles. The right color of tiles can really make or break your Mediterranean style bathroom. Bright colors such as burnt orange, red, jewel green, or cobalt blue will really add some class to your regular bathroom. Terracotta is a popular material for this.
- The right kind of accessories will really help give your bathroom a Mediterranean feel. Wrought iron and heavy wood are usually used for this. Relaxed designs are usually the characteristic of Mediterranean style. You can look at flea markets to look for iron candelabras. Bright, detailed plates and pots in terracotta or ceramic will also help create the right vibe. Glasses in opaque blue and green will also help create a great vibe. Anything bright and colorful can be used as an accessory. However, avoid overcrowding your bathroom with too many accessories, as this will defeat the purpose of a Mediterranean, simplistic design. It will make the bathroom less functional and more for display.
You can use a lot of things to decorate your bathroom. These tips will give you an idea on how to create a Mediterranean bathroom.
