Modern design features

If you have a modern designed bathroom, black and white aspect will merge well with the design. These colors will complement bathroom features such as open spaces, sleek lines and elegant surfaces. Having a vessel sink is quite a big idea and you can choose to have it white in color and have the vanity be painted black or even choose them be vice versa. This adds to class and taste of design. Natural stone whether black granite or white marble is quite an addition to a modern bathroom. The black and white colors add that perfect contrast that you may not get with any other colors.

White accents on black walls

In this design, the walls are made of black or any dark colors and added fixtures and floor accents that are white. It is classier to think beyond the toilet and tub fixtures that mostly come in white and choose marbles that are bright or white or even the granite and quartz. You will spend relatively less as compared to when you have to go looking for colored fixtures.

If you’re looking to go a little lighter colored with your color contrast, you may want to add a heavy texture to the walls. This can help to accentuate the black and white color difference without the need to add a lot of black into the design.

Some Wall Art will do magic

Adding wall art that is colorful will help divert the attention from the contrasting colors and focus it on the black and white theme of the bathroom. Photos that are black and white easily blend the black and white wall design and bring about a transition between these colors. Bright colors are a good way of diverting the attention from the black and white colors but the art will a better choice.

Accent Walls

If you want to stick with one color other than blending different colors, you can choose to have a black accent wall then dominate the rest of the space with white fixtures and flooring, vanity counters and tiles. With this option, make sure that the opposite side of the bathroom mirror is left black. This is a way of ensuring that the intended black and white bathroom design is achieved without having to exaggerate on the black. You can also choose to add antique wood furnishings made of dark colors to increase that accent look of your wall.
