Shades of Grey for Powder Rooms and Baths

Three different clients and three different bathrooms. Each required a different approach. Yet we used grey in each one. From a deep charcoal grey to a taupe grey to a very light grey this neutral color in thousands of shades is most versatile.

The first bathroom was part of a master bedroom suite. The tiles were a light neutral color without much character. The vanity was a cherry wood with a deep granite countertop. We decided to accent that deep granite color by choosing a charcoal grey for the walls. Now the nondescript tiles and the whole bathroom just pops. It is a sophisticated look that works for the space. We used Benjamin Moore 1616 Stormy Sky.

The next was a powder room in a newly renovated house. The toilet, sink, and vanity were white. The client had chosen a dynamic granite for the vanity that gave the room interest. We decided to pick a shade of grey from the granite, a taupe grey that gave the space a warm glow and inviting feeling. We chose Benjamin Moore 1541 London Fog.

Neutral Taupe Color for Powder Room

The next bathroom would be used mostly by two brothers and guests. The tiles were a medium grey with a small mosaic tile trim. The granite on the vanity was a dark grey almost black. We chose Benjamin Moore 871 Pearl River a light grey that complimented the greys in the room and brought light to the space.
