Orange Bathrooms Can Be Beautiful, and Here’s Proof

We get it: Orange is a risky color. You don't see it used very often as a defining hue in home design, and when you do, it's rarely done well. But we believe you can definitely do orange right. One place we are never afraid to experiment? The bathroom. These beautiful bathrooms put orange to use through paint, wallpaper, and tile — and we thoroughly approve.

Thinking about a completely tiled bathroom? Consider covering one wall — or a shower enclosure — with orange tiles as an accent.

This Milan apartment uses orange in a way that doesn't scream "Tropicana:" with a peachy-salmon hue painted halfway up the bathroom wall for a color blocked look.

This space by Raspberry Doors adds a punch of color thanks to tiles inspired by traditional motifs. Looking for something similar? Try Granada Tile's Echo collection, which can be customized according to your desired color.

Trying out the rustic thing in your home? It doesn't all need to be covered in white. In fact, an orange hue can really bring out the warmth of wood accents.

Orange doesn't overwhelm when it's on a tiled floor. And if you're stuck on what accent color to bring in, white is a perfect choice.

This bathroom makeover by Fyne Designs is a reminder that orange can be defined many ways — and a coat of paint in a peach hue is a fun way to bring life to a space.

You can do a lot with a black-and-white bathroom, but adding orange can transform it into something completely different — think Kelly Wearstler-esque Hollywood glam.

Don't want to get too orange? Salmon can be a choice that's a bit more approachable, yet still statement-making.

This space, designed through a collaboration between Kartell and Laufen, is perfect inspiration if you're looking to give your bathroom a high-design, fully customized renovation.

We love us some wallpaper in the bathroom. While we usually default to more modern designs, this photo is making us want to go full-on grande dame with some traditional motifs.

If you're not sure that orange is for you, it's easy enough to give the shade a trial run through some choice bathroom accessories. Plus, this ombre shower curtain is only $9.99, so you really have nothing to lose.
