The bathroom has changed. The furniture too.
Today, more than ever, the bathroom is an integral part of the home's visual narrative . It's a space to bring beauty, character, and, above all, color.
Those who love design—and see every detail of the home as a manifesto of their own style—know it well: even the bathroom can (and should) excite.
Color in the Bathroom: How to Use It Strategically
Color in the bathroom must be thought of with intention : measured, positioned, harmonized.
1. Create a focal point
A single, well-chosen piece of colorful furniture is all it takes. A cabinet, a painted metal shelf, or a mirror with a pop frame: if color is the main feature, this element has the potential to become the visual centerpiece of the space. Color here acts as an accent, drawing the eye and giving the room character.
2. Playing with contrasts
If you have light walls, neutral tiles, or microcement surfaces, introducing a contrasting color through furniture or accessories creates depth and personality. Contrast is what brings the composition to life, and believe us, this play of color can even make an ugly bathroom beautiful .
3. Give rhythm with repetition
Towel racks, toilet paper holders, mirrors: these are details that, when repeated in coordinated shades, create a chromatic rhythm that draws the eye and makes the space more cohesive and interesting. Colored metal , in particular, is a perfect ally: it adds modernity and style without weighing down.
4. Choose colors based on the atmosphere you want
Want to start your day with energy ? Choose warm, saturated colors. Looking for relaxation ? Opt for dusty colors, deep blues, or soft greens. Each shade brings a different energy, and you can feel it in your bathroom every day.
Let's see now 5 colorful and characterful proposals to include in your bathroom project .
1. Closed Levant: contain with style
In the bathroom, the balance between order and personality is everything.
Levante closed perfectly interprets this need: a metal cabinet , with a clean design, with two open shelves to keep the objects you use most often within reach and a spacious closed space for everything else.
Available in a varied colour palette, it is ideal for bringing colour into monochromatic environments or for creating tone-on-tone matches with the wall .
2. Versilia: the floor lamp that doesn't want to be invisible
Items such as the toilet paper holder and toilet brush are usually hidden.
Versilia , on the other hand, was born to be shown.
Versilia brings together two essential accessories – toilet brush and toilet roll holder – in a single compact stand .
The structure is solid, the brushes can be easily replaced and the design lends itself to being integrated into the most refined projects.
For a coherent styling, pick up its shade in other accessories : towel racks, shower caddy or bathrobe hooks .
3. Marinella: the detail that changes the shower
In the shower there is always a moment when everything falls, drips or gets stuck.
The Marinella line was created to avoid chaos.
The wave shape adds movement to the wall , the perforated shelves allow water to flow away and the embossed paint does not retain dirt.
You can choose the corner version if you want to save space , or the hanging version with non-slip rubber feet, ideal even for thinner boxes.
Marinella proves that styling can be done even in the shower .
With a little attention to the choice of bottles, you can host a very carefully curated mini-composition to display, to make the shower moment even more enjoyable.
4. Adriatica: when the towel rack decorates
Soft lines, thin base, elegant presence.
Adriatica is the floor-standing towel rack that fits discreetly into even the tightest spaces, yet leaves its mark.
Perfect for an en suite bathroom, a guest bathroom, or simply to add a graphic touch near the shower, it also works beautifully with contrasting colored towels or those that match the metal.
If you love monochromatic bathrooms, this is the perfect opportunity to play with tone-on-tone.
If you prefer an eclectic mood, dare: Adriatica also holds up very well to intense colours like cinnamon, light teal or midnight blue .
5. Ark: It looks like a piece of furniture, but it's actually a laundry basket
In a well-designed bathroom, even the laundry basket has its place and its aesthetics.
In the colored version it becomes an eye-catching element, perfect also for those looking for a decorative alternative to the usual containers.
The Arca laundry basket , with wheels, double compartment and minimal design, is designed for those who do not want to give up beauty even in the most functional objects .
In the colored version it easily becomes a focal point .
It looks great next to the washing machine, but also in a dedicated niche, which gives it the spotlight it deserves.
6. Open Levante: the shelf that dresses the wall
When space is limited, you need smart furniture.
The Levante column shelf is designed to fit between the wall and the sink or to elegantly complement the bathroom area.
Open and easy to view, it's perfect for displaying items that speak to you : perfumes, beauty tools, carefully selected products, vases, or candles. The three lower hooks help you organize hair accessories, hair dryers, and straighteners.
Styling tip : Alternate between full and empty spaces, choose a coherent palette to set it up.
You can use boxes or organizers, alternating them with the most beautiful bottles grouped in plain sight on small trays.
Add decorative pots and a few plants for a flawless styling.
Add color to your bathroom, with style
All it takes is well-chosen furniture and a cleverly placed splash of color to transform it into a personal, vibrant, and emotional space.
Choosing colored metal furnishings means focusing on long-term quality and enhancing even the most functional details, making them an integral part of the project, blending aesthetics and utility with lightness and character.
