Elegant. Understated. Timeless. Black and white bathroom renovations add an unmistakable air of sophistication to any home.

Sleek and sophisticated, the black and white bathroom is a true chameleon – the minimal monochromatic palette allows you to bring your bathroom to life, adding personality with pops of your favourite colour in the form of accessories and soft furnishings.

See yourself walking into your clean, chic bathroom first thing in the morning, sunshine accentuating the crisp lines and adding an energetic boost that will help set you up for the day ahead as you step into the hot shower.

Return again in the evening when soft accent lighting adds a feeling of warmth to the room as you recline in your oversized tub, enjoying some ‘me time’ after a busy day.

Black and white. So seemingly simple, and yet anything you want it to be.

Black and white bathroom renovations should include:

• Clean, minimal lines. It’s all about keeping everything sharp and crisp. Use strong, bright whites and blacks to define the space. It’s what lets you make a small area feel roomy and unique.
• Use grey to add warmth to monochrome – elements like charcoal tiles or grey linen all help to soften the minimal edges. And, to really make your bathroom sparkle, it’s a great idea to add a few splashes of colour to highlight one or two items.
• Flexibility. Go predominantly black for a strong masculine bathroom. Add some textured tiles to soften the minimal lines. Add some patterned or varying sized tiles to break up solid surfaces like floors and walls and add balance to the bathroom. Monochrome doesn’t mean you can’t be imaginative.
