The times when the toilet was sheathed with panels or pasted over with the simplest wallpaper are long gone, today they create a very interesting design in this room. Let's dwell on the most common ones.

• Classics - in this interior, the traditional distribution of objects is used, and the plumbing is selected in the most standard, familiar forms. Usually, beige tones predominate in such decors; the fittings can be gilded. In the cladding, the presence of textures imitating wood or natural stone is allowed.

• Minimalism - this trend is characterized by the absence of decorative elements and any unnecessary things. Everything in the room should be laconic with a predominance of strict geometric lines. The color palette is chosen in nude shades, and for contrast, black or dark brown tiles are used on the floor.

• Ecostyle - as the name suggests, natural motives should prevail in such a decor. Natural materials are used to decorate the premises - wood or stone. The color scheme is usually dominated by green and brown tints. It is allowed to create an ombre effect: the transition from dark to light shades, such a solution will visually expand the boundaries of a small space. Of the accessories in eco-style, the use of wicker baskets or panels made of dry branches on the walls will be appropriate.

• Baroque - this style is optimal for spacious bathrooms. Baroque and its more modern counterpart - Rococo, are attributed to the palace style, so when visiting the toilet, you should create the feeling that you are in a castle of wealthy aristocrats. Typically, such rooms are decorated in burgundy, chocolate and beige shades with gold trim. Engravings and paintings with scenes from the times of Louis XIV will look spectacular.

• Modern - a bathroom in this style assumes right angles, strict lines and an abundance of geometric elements. Any shades in the design can be used, necessarily without halftones. The interior is highlighted by well-chosen lighting fixtures.

• Decorating interiors in style will be a good solution for toilets. loft - in this case, you do not even have to mask raw walls, boiler installations and water pipes. Porcelain plumbing will look beautiful against their background.

The selection of a suitable color scheme for the design of the toilet is an important stage in planning the interior, since the overall perception of the room and the mood of the people living in the house largely depend on the shade range. Two toilets with the same footage, made in the same styles, but in different shades, can look completely different. There are several subtleties in the design that the owners of the premises should know about when choosing the appropriate ideas for the design of the bathroom.

• White. This color predominates in the vast majority of bathrooms, as it is perfect for small spaces without natural light. The shade gives the room some airiness and makes it lighter.

• Black. This design looks especially impressive in tandem with snow-white sanitary ware. However, dark tones visually conceal the space, so this design can only be used in spacious toilets. And also keep in mind that if black takes up more than half of the design, it will be uncomfortable to be in such a room.

• Gray. This tone has been considered a hit in recent years, but it needs to be properly combined with the rest of the items in the washroom. Usually, the shade is complemented by a painting or colorful mosaic.

• Blue. This color is equally likely to look both original and trite. When using this color scheme, it is very important to choose the right shades and their combinations with furniture and sanitary ware. Most often, this color scheme is used to decorate interiors in a marine style.

Bright colors can significantly refresh the bathroom. But it is important not to overdo it with the color scheme, otherwise you will not avoid the feeling of pretentiousness and grip.
