The hue of the sea wave is again in vogue today. It is found everywhere: in clothes and accessories, and in the design of houses and apartments. Unlike most home decor options popular in recent years and tending to natural, earthy, neutral tones, the "sea wave" is bright and bold. Along with other similar shades like turquoise and azure blue, it can have a very positive effect on the interior. These colors look great in the bedrooms, kitchens and living rooms in retro style, but really stand out in the design of the bathrooms.
Today on the site "House of Dreams" we'll see how the bathroom looks like a color of the sea wave and what rules in the design of its design should be adhered to.

Seawater bathroom: where to start
The color of the sea wave is intense enough and therefore can be a bit overwhelming in a large space, such as the same living room. There it can be difficult to find the right balance. Small rooms, such as a bathroom, are ideal for experimenting with this color scheme. In them, you can create a good contrast to modern designer plumbing, which is still produced mostly in the virgin white version( although there are also possible different options, for example, a black toilet and a washbasin or colored plumbing).
Today, when the shade of the sea wave and the corresponding variants of the design of bathrooms are gaining popularity, it is important to remember that they were no less common somewhere between the 50th and 70th years of the last century. But your task when planning the interior does not rely on the ideas of the past( although a couple of curtseyes to their address can be done), and pick up new trends. Therefore, in terms of using the color of the sea wave in the bathroom, it is still better not to borrow from the 60's good ideas, but to learn from the mistakes of the designers of that time. If you want to create a bathroom in retro style, try not to look old. That is, observe the principles of simplicity and moderation.

How to use the color of the sea wave in the bathroom
Do not overdo it by applying the materials of the color of the sea wave in the bathroom. You can completely lay out the walls of the bathroom tiles of this shade, but otherwise adhere to a range of different shades of white, beige, pale pink or silver.
Perhaps, it is worth playing in contrast: the white walls will perfectly harmonize with the floor and ceiling in the bathroom in the color of the sea wave, the same color can have a lampshade at one of the fixtures or a pedestal for the sink. In this case, the "sea wave" will look particularly bright and joyful.
If you just want to check if this color suits you, it may be easier to paint some bathroom items for them. But if you already know and love the shade of the sea wave and are happy to include it in a large repair project, another option is to choose the basic bathroom accessories in similar tones. For example, it could be a small dressing table.
Mistresses from the 60's would rather stay at the turquoise enamel bath, wash basin and toilet, but now it would be too much. Instead, it is worth to buy a bath of cast iron "antique" and a sink with powder coating. Outside, they can be painted with a small amount of "sea wave", say, by stencil. Just apply the paint over the white background with a thin layer so that it does not look too dark.

Aqua bath design: do not overdo it
Decorating the interior of the bathroom with the color of the sea wave, do not forget about the moderation. It may seem strange, but if you use too many accessories in the tones of the sea wave, the bathroom risks becoming quite old-fashioned. Of course, the presence of towels, vases and even a pair of glass light shelves of this color - it's quite stylish. But the towel brackets all around, soap holders and holders for sea-hair shade toilet paper will spoil the effect by 100%.Perhaps you will like classic built-in accessories made of white porcelain or metal, only slightly complemented by this color - say, with an unobtrusive pattern? Believe me, it will look much nicer!
