- plumbing marble color;
- white stucco molding;
- golden accessories.
If you use lime-colored tiles, you can create a great room modernist plan. But in the green tones of a natural look, they design a room that should express the concept environmental style. Marine style can be expressed not only in the corresponding dark green color of the tiles. It is quite acceptable to use other variants of this color if a wave-like ornament is made around the perimeter of the blocks.
It is worth saying about the place of green tiles in the interior eastern bathroom. In this version, emerald olive and yellow-green colors are welcome. But the selection of shades should be determined not only by the style of the room. The lighter the color, the more the room appears. This fact is very important precisely in bathrooms, where space is almost always not enough.
Important! The larger the individual elements, the more reasonable will be the choice of darker tones. But small mosaic tiles can also be used - they are mainly used to revitalize old decorative compositions and improve the appearance.
Design specialists do not get tired of reminding that in the bathroom should not be more than 3 tones. Basic color should occupy from 50 to 70% of the space. And if it is green tile that plays the main role in the design of the room, then you need to select its colors as strictly as possible. It is better to spend time getting to know different collections, drawing up a clear design concept, than taking risks when choosing an ill-conceived solution.
The traditional way to expand a room visually is to use a light green tile in combination with white interior elements. More complex and original options can only be correctly chosen by professional designers.
When the area of the bathroom is quite large in itself, you can give preference to the Mediterranean style, in which green and bright yellow inclusions can be used along with green ones. Wishing to be original, they put, for example, marsh duckweed tiles, and the walls are decorated in light brown tones. If a white-green combination is used, accents are usually set using black tiles.
A good option is a combination of soft green paint with lilac and dense orange colors. If for some reason you don’t like this solution, you can always dilute the plain green room with inclusions of gold trim. However, you can "play" with the texture, using a light green tile with an olive pattern. In the bathroom it is always better to use a tile of muted green shades, unless another option is dictated by the logic of the chosen design approach. To avoid the feeling of fading, use more saturated accessories and borders.
To create a more luxurious interior, they use those shades of green that are characteristic of precious and semiprecious stones. But anyway This color should be used carefully and carefully. If there are too many green tones in the bathroom, it will become too cold, create predominantly unpleasant associations. Bright and expressive strokes are easy to create using pistachio and lime shades. But such inclusions should account for approximately 20% of the total area.
In the Mediterranean style, green tiles are quite appropriate. It can even be used a little more than usual. However, for a more complete disclosure of the style, this material is advised to combine with natural wood. As for the “precious” colors, they are suitable for bathrooms decorated in the spirit of glamor, art deco and modern classics. Instead of the traditional tile, they often use a mosaic layout or a “boar”.
A green tile is also used in the Scandinavian bathroom. They necessarily use several tones at once to form a sense of gradient. In the descriptions, it is noted that such a tile has a "smoky" or "dirty" color.
Important: when the walls are painted in green, it is advisable to arrange the floor in a different color, which will achieve coziness.
White-green combination is not the only option. Vegetable colors are perfectly combined with gray paint. As for chromatic tones, you can consider options with additives such as:
- peach;
- yellow;
- light violet;
- turquoise or blue.
Choosing the shades of the greenest for the bathroom, it is necessary to take into account the difference between the "warm" and "cold" colors. To make a room warmer help not only pistachio and olive, but also khaki and “bottle” color. To achieve visual coolness, tones such as emerald, mint, turquoise and aquamarine. For the design of large areas of the room, it is impractical to use lime saturated with herbal, apple green and similar colors.
