Color is a powerful source to enhance more than just the decor, it can improve wellbeing too.

One of the most important rooms to boost our mood is the bathroom. According to Showerstoyou.co.uk and Psychologist and Wellbeing Consultant Lee Chambers MSc MBPsS, the color you paint bathroom walls is of great importance.

From waking up and feeling invigorated for the day ahead to winding-down before bed, bathroom wall colors play a vital role to our mood.

"Bathrooms are normally not considered to be a place to show your flamboyance," says Lee Chambers. "Despite this, the color scheme of your bathroom can have a direct impact on how you feel. Whether having the morning shower or brushing our teeth before falling into bed."

Most popular bathroom paint colors

The bathroom retailer surveyed 4,342 people on the color of their bathrooms. The most popular bathroom wall color is white, with an overwhelming 32 per cent of those surveyed having white bathroom walls.

Despite it’s popularity Lee explains why this might not be the best choice. "An all-white bathroom is very clinical, clean and spacious, but lacks character. White can be uninspiring, especially for females, studies have shown."

The second and third most popular colors are blue and green, with 21 per cent and 11 per cent respectively. These may both be more beneficial than white walls.

As Lee explains, "When it comes to helping us find a calmer moment of serenity in the evening or as you rush around in the morning, cooler colors that still have a bright element, such as brighter blue and greens can help us feel assured in ourselves. Conveying a message that we can handle the day’s challenges."

After blue and green came grey bathrooms and neutral cream walls. Red and orange came 7th and 9th on the list respectively, making them not the most nor least popular colors. However, Lee says these bold shades could be just what your bathroom needs!

Explaining, "If you want to start the day with a stimulating boost, bold shades of warm colors like reds, oranges and yellows can really get you energised." But it doesn’t have to be on walls, "This can be incorporated through accessories and decoration on a more muted color."

The least popular color was black. Despite this becoming more visible in the modern home none of those surveyed chose this bold wall color. To concur, Lee’s in favour of avoiding black bathroom walls. He says, "Dark bathrooms can feel enclosed and uninviting unless the lighting is beneficial, and mirrors are used to create the perception of space."

Perhaps more surprisingly, 2 per cent of people had metallic gold or silver bathroom walls. Lee analyses this, saying it’s worthwhile considering thinking outside the box and incorporating metallics and textures.

Saying, "Natural materials are grounding, such as metallic, stone and wooden elements. They can help us to feel more connected to ourselves."

After evaluating the most popular colors for bathrooms, Lee explains, "The last thing to consider is your color preferences."

Concluding, "If there’s a particular shade that you feel expresses you, you have a personal connection, and that is powerful when deciding what color to use. Just ensure that the colors you choose let you have that moment of peace in a place that feels like home."
