Are your master bedroom and bath the same colors?

8 years ago

Just wondering how many of you coordinate the bedroom and bath or do you have the bath a different color? My bedroom is soft serene colors, silver light blue bedding and pillows. I coordinated the bath colors with the bedroom. I really like the colors for the bedroom, but not so much the bath. I am thinking of punching up the bath colors with towels, rugs etc, but will leave the walls the same pale gray as the master.

Funny you ask because I was just struggling with this very thought. We redid our master bath with light green/spa like colors and gray walls. The bedroom comforter matched the bathroom perfectly but then I decided we needed a new comforter. I fell in love with a dark brown paisley RL comforter, totally different colors than what my bathroom had but I decided to go with it. No regrets lol. I can always buy a different comforter if needed. But now I want to change more in the bedroom to match my new comforter, and if I move forward in that direction then the bathroom will really be a different feel from the bathroom. I always tell me myself to decorate with things I love/enjoy, and as long as I do that then I can't go wrong :)

Mine are different, but I do have some of the same accent color in the bath.

I saw a photo on Houzz where the bathroom was painted a deeper color of the bedroom. It looked really nice.

I really like the idea of using colors that are adjacent on a strip for MBR and Bath. I've got samples hanging on the walls right now of BM Palladian Blue in the Bedroom and BM Wythe Blue in the Bath, and I'm about 90% certain that those colors will be the ones. Also looking at the SW Strip that has 6211 Rainwashed and 6212 Quietude-those look very close to the Palladian and Wythe but they seem to me a bit less intense.

This must be a common dilemma. Our master bathroom has china black marble with carrara marble base cap. The walls are painted RL silver candle lite which is a pearl like silver. The cabinets are stained wood as is the window so there's a bit of warmth in the room. The master bedroom is going to be done in jewel tones with a RL gold candle lite ceiling. To help bring cold and warm together I used jewel tone towels in the bathroom.

My master bath has brown cabinets and the window and crown molding are done in brown wood...my master bedroom has brown crown molding and brown accents. There is a common thread so the two rooms flow. But they are not the same color, not a lighter tone of the other...nope, two different colors, different styles, definately different linens (I only believe in white for towels because I believe God invented bleach for a reason). My hardware in the master bath and master closet are in similar gold tones. And the lighting between the three rooms is all antique, most are exposed bulb fixtures from the early teens but in different colors. So there's another little carry through. I think my three rooms, which are all different colors with different linens flow because I've kept a few key features similar, though not exactly the same. In the bath, brown is the main color, in the bedroom it's an accent and in the closet it becomes the main again. The walls of the master suite are bronze (literally metalic bronze tone) but the master bath is done in a marble like finish of cream and tan. The closet is gold. All different textures, but they still flow well and give me flexibility to do different things in the master bedroom if I want to. This is the view from the bath to the bedroom: And from the bedroom to the bath: And I do require the cat sit on the counter in the bath at all times because he matches the wall in the bedroom....

Nothing wrong with mixing up colors. The colors should coordinate a bit so they flow from one room to another. My master suite is three rooms in an "L" shape, the sitting room is in the middle. All three rooms are open to one another with doorless archways, so they do flow visually. The center room, the sitting room, has deep red/burgundy walls and a cream/ivory trim color. Off one side of the sitting room is the bathroom. The the trim and cabinets are the same cream/ivory as the sitting room, but the wall are somewhat beige. Off to the other side of the sitting room is our bedroom. In there the walls are sort of a cream/ivory, and the trim/cabinets/wainscot is a deep muted historical green. The cream/ivory sort of ties the three rooms together and the other colors sort of bounce off that. For bathrooms which can be dominated by hard surfaces (fixtures/tile/stained wood) where the color of those items can be difficult or expensive to change, I usually recommend that those hard surfaces be a neutral or somewhat muted color. Then the wall color, or soft accent items like towels and throw rugs, curtains, etc, which are easy to change, be the stronger and sometimes more vibrant accent color. The hard surface colors in our bathroom are sort of neutral (cream cabinets and trim, beige walls, natural teak for the countertops and tub deck, tile is cream and charcoal), we change the color of the towels/rugs whenever we feel like it. Sometimes to a strong color; deep green, cranberry red, etc, sometimes to a soft neutral like beige, off-white, etc. And there is nothing wrong experimenting with colors either, especially paint. At roughly 10 cents a square foot coverage for basic formulations, paint color can be inexpensive and fairly easy to change.

I have been debating this too... My bedroom is a soft granny apple green and the ceiling is a grayish white. I am planning on using the ceiling color in the bathroom. The bedroom is a mix of shabby chic and industrial (go figure... lol). The bathroom is more serene. I did a white washed wood wall, pebble tiled shower floor and a very light tile on the shower walls. The vanities are rather light in color too. I don't want them to be too matchy matchy, yet go together...

No. My master bedroom is "sand" and warm; my master bath is "water" and cool colors.

Our bedroom is light blue, and our bathroom is sage green. Both colors flow very well. I don't think that I would like for them to be the same color. I like the contrast, and the feeling of being in different rooms with the different colors. I do have white curtains, trim, etc running through both rooms to tie them together. I think that is important.

No, but they do flow. The bedroom is BM Wedgewood grey, which is really a blue and the floors are medium brown "wood" LVT. The master bathroom is BM Revere Pewter, a warm gray and floors are charcoal grey tile.

Ours walls are currently different, but the accent colors are the same. But in our prior house, we painted the bedroom and then asked to have the same color mixed at 50%. They coordinated and looked nice.

I think it "should" but mine doesn't. We updated our master bath (1980's house, giant master bath) about ten years ago, Tuscan look-darkish beige colors/traditional.

We updated our master bedroom about a year ago, contemporary, gray. So no we didn't but I think we should have.
