I’m not sure if you guys have noticed, but there has been a purple bathroom revolution going on! We’re seeing these spaces become statements and focal points more than ever, and I am in love with the look!
If you need help seeing the possibilities, today’s post will for sure inspire you!
1. Go Gothic and Glam with Unexpected Color Choices
Okay, can we talk about this color combination? Black and purple together is just so powerful! I love how the glossy black floor tiles and that ornate wrought iron mirror really pop against the grape-colored walls.
It’s such a striking look. And notice how the vanity and toilet are super sleek and low-profile? That’s such a smart move because it lets that dramatic color story be the absolute star of the show. So beautiful!
2. Cute All Purple Decor
This bathroom makes such a statement with its gorgeous, glossy tiles that go from the floor all the way to the ceiling. I love that some tiles are a warm lilac color while others have this abstract floral feel to them.
When you have a feature this dramatic, choosing minimalist furniture is the way to go. A sleek floating vanity and a clear acrylic end table are perfect because they allow those amazing tiles to really shine.
3. High-End Purple Bathroom Design
This space is just palatial and absolutely fit for royalty! I mean, look at that spacious layout and all the high-end finishes.
What’s so interesting is that the lavender damask wallpaper feels surprisingly subtle, and that’s because the floor-to-ceiling windows flood the whole room with natural light.
The violet velvet curtains add a touch of heaviness, but it’s perfectly balanced by that gleaming mirrored double vanity and the silver clawfoot tub. Just incredible.
4. Lavender Bathroom
What a beautiful lavender bathroom! This space has enough room to really sustain a vibrant wall color, and this bright orchid shade is just fantastic.
When you have a color this bold, you’ll want to play around with cut decor pieces that make the wall color look even more dramatic. I love that the towels, the rug, and the upholstered bench all have purple patterns.
And that lush flower just makes the whole space feel so fun and fresh!
5. Purple Sink
I am seeing so much of this Scandinavian rustic design lately, and these minimalist wood vanities and handmade clay sinks are such hallmarks of the style.
Usually, this look has a very neutral color palette, but I love how you can add your own twist with an unconventional accent color.
The ombre effect on the wall is a perfect complement to the crackle texture on that custom orchid sink. What a unique touch!
6. Chic Master Bathroom with Light Purple Accents
This master suite features a large cased opening that leads right from the bedroom into the bathroom. I think this is such a great idea!
With no door separating the spaces, it’s so important to have a cohesive color story that ties everything together.
The bedroom has periwinkle-painted walls, and the bathroom has this amazing wallpaper striped with silver and the same purple shade. Then, those rich grape-hued decorative accents add some beautiful dimension.
7. Use Fresh Purple Paint For Your Bathroom
If you don’t have a big budget for a full bathroom remodel, a fresh coat of paint can honestly go such a long way. I know from experience! The beige floor tiles, the countertop, and that oversized wrapped bathtub could make this room feel a little dated.
But painting the walls with iris paint and framing them with white accents is a game-changer. It instantly updates and elevates the whole space.
8. Small Purple Bathroom Design
I know we’ve all seen dark wall paint broken up with white wainscoting, and it’s a classic look. But this bathroom totally subverts expectations! It has white walls with this deep, eggplant wainscoting instead, which is such a brilliant idea.
This is a fantastic choice for a small space because you get that pop of color without it dominating the room. The white walls also create a neutral backdrop for those interesting wall accessories, like the black metal sconces and that cool rope-wrapped mirror.
9. Luxury Bathroom Feel with Gold Accents
This washroom is so chic! It has a glossy double vanity in a medium lilac shade, and I love how that color continues onto the gradated herringbone floor tiles. Lilac is one of the warmer shades of purple, so it plays so well with gold.
The gleaming chrome on the drawer pulls and faucets just adds even more brightness to this cheerful space. What a happy room!
10. Coordinate Towels and Tiles
In this otherwise unassuming bathroom, two rows of pale purple accent tiles were the only real design elements. But look at what a difference coordinating your accessories makes!
Matching the towels, bath mats, and window shade makes the space feel so much more intentional. And here’s a great trick: if you want to go the extra mile, use a stencil to paint a canvas in that same color.
When you hang it up, it will look just like a custom tile inset. So clever!
11. Unique Earth Tones
I would have never thought to put these colors together, but the amethyst paint is startlingly complementary to the earthier elements in this space. It works so well with everything from the natural stone floors to the floating wood-fronted vanities.
I love the textured wall and the adjacent inset that have a faint copper sheen, which really ties the purples and browns together. And the creative lighting just illuminates the styling perfectly, making it feel like the inside of a geode. So cool!
12. Pretty Pastel Powder Room
Even if your taste leans more toward traditional design, you can still add a subtle touch of color to your bathroom. This small shower stall is wrapped in these understated lavender tiles, and it’s just lovely.
I really like how the tiles are placed horizontally on the walls but then arranged diagonally on the ceiling for extra interest. The cool purple hue is a beautiful complement to the gray marble countertop.
13. Pink and Purple Bathroom with Violet Vanity
A pink and purple bathroom is just the perfect look for a fashionista who loves a luxurious and trendy style. We all know the color purple is associated with royalty, and those gold-framed mirrors and faucets feel so appropriately aristocratic.
The pale blush walls are neutral enough to let that bright, custom-painted vanity really pop. I also think using a neutral gray floor tile was a smart choice to keep the space from feeling too over the top.
14. Beautiful Light Purple Decor
For a spa-like experience right at home, you could consider converting a bedroom into a spacious bathroom. I mean, how dreamy is that? This space is more than ample enough to contain a large, clawfoot tub, complete with elegant silver chrome accents and fixtures.
A feature wall with damask wallpaper adds so much visual interest, while the crystal chandelier really adds to the rococo style. It’s just breathtaking!
15. Stunning Painted Walls
I know that contemporary design can sometimes feel a little cold, even though it’s undeniably sleek and stylish. That’s why introducing an unexpected color can make a modern bathroom feel so much more accessible.
I love how these lilac walls add a bright complement to the neutral taupe cabinet fronts. And the abstract print on the wall is a great touch that further illustrates the connection between art and design in this space.
16. Lilac and White Bathroom
This bathroom has such a distinctly French Provincial feel with its antique light fixtures and that repurposed vintage vanity.
The pale purple wall paint adds a really subtle brightness to the small space, while the deeper colors in the wall art and the vase of flowers bring in some nice richness.
I also love the half-tile wall, which is finished with a wainscoting-like detail that enhances the elevated elegance of the room.
17. Bold All Purple Color Scheme
I know a lot of people dip their toes into daring decor by just painting an accent wall, but some people aren’t afraid to go all in! I love the confidence. It’s so important to pick the right color before you commit to a monochromatic bathroom.
A dark purple could have felt smaller, but this bright orchid shade feels so fresh and modern. The glass-walled shower is a great choice because it allows the continuity of color to make a real statement, while the heavy wooden door provides a beautiful contrast.
18. Mauve Bathroom with White Vanity and Tiles
This charming bathroom has such an eclectic feel, and I think it’s because of its disparate decorative elements. The black and white vintage tiles pair so well with the old-fashioned art prints.
At the same time, the glass pendant lights and the sleek vanity have a more modern feel to them. The bold pop of color on the walls is what provides a unifying focal point and ties it all together beautifully.
19. Modern Purple Farmhouse Bathroom with Gold Accents
This rustic purple bathroom comes with wood paneling that has such a unique twist, thanks to the unexpected and innovative mauve paint.
The exposed pipes on the sleek sink give it a homey feel, but the gleaming gold chrome finish on them makes it feel more contemporary and upscale. I love that mix! The marble counter and shower complete this chic, high-end take on a farmhouse bathroom.
20. Match Your Paint To Your Decor
If you’re ready to revamp your bathroom, I always say to look to your favorite decorative items for inspiration. A striking black and purple graphic shower curtain can be the perfect starting point for an elegant feel.
The dark periwinkle wall paint is a perfect match to one of the deeper shades in the curtain. Using neutral gray floor tiles helps keep the space from looking overstyled. It’s such a great tip!
21. Heavenly Heather Retreat
This spa-like bathroom features a two-toned wall with a paler shade of heather on top and a deeper hue on the bottom. I love this idea! Using different shades of purple adds more dimension to the room.
The muted raisin shade that wraps around the freestanding soaking tub is just gorgeous. And the sheer curtains have a subtle geometric design that is mirrored in the small wooden chest. So many great details!
22. White and Light Purple Bathroom
At first glance, the walls in this sophisticated powder room might look gray, but this muted violet bathroom creates such a neutral and stylish look.
I think this understated shade is perfect for letting other decorative elements, like the wall molding and contemporary abstract art, have their moment to shine. And speaking of shine, that matte gold mirror, the wall sconces, and the faucet all help brighten this small room beautifully.
23. Dramatic Mauve Bathroom Design
This dark purple bathroom blends mauve and grey to create a absolutely gorgeous look. This space plays off that combination by featuring multiple gray tones in the countertops, shower, and floor tiles.
The black vanity and wall spaces tie into the darker gray shades in the floor, adding so much elegance and drama to the space.
24. Custom Purple Color Tiles
You know, at first glance, this bathroom looks like a traditional but cheerful blue and white color scheme. But when you look closer, the custom tile work on the vanity features these unique color-shifting tiles in multiple shades of blue and purple.
Isn’t that amazing? The white accents throughout the space are a great choice to help those beautiful jewel tones really stand out.
25. High-Contrast Design with Dark Purple and White
The eggplant-hued tiles in this bathroom could easily feel overwhelming, especially since there are no windows for natural light. But the crisp white tiles and countertop are the perfect solution, breaking up the eye by providing contrast.
I also love how the minimalist furniture and angular lines give it a sleek, futuristic feel, but that striking color keeps the space from feeling too sterile.
26. Cool Light Purple Vanity with White Wall
This small powder room has a custom vanity with this really decorative scalloped detail. The addition of pastel purple paint is so smart because it helps draw your attention right to that ornamentation.
The periwinkle and white hand towel is a nice touch that helps tie together the pale purple vanity with the textured white wallpaper, while those elongated sconces create the illusion of more height. So many great ideas for a small space!
27. Cute Purple Wall Decor
If you’re stylistically adventurous, don’t be afraid to mix and match patterns in your decor! I love this look. The patterned purple and white grasscloth wallpaper adds so much texture and visual interest to this bold bathroom.
It also contrasts so nicely against the sleek, diamond-patterned floor tile. Having a large vanity in a neutral tone helps break things up and create space between the competing patterns.
28. Purple and Brown Elements
A bigger bathroom can sometimes feel cramped if it has outdated decorative elements, like a wood-wrapped bathtub and mottled brown tiles. If you can’t afford a full remodel, you can still update the space with a fresh coat of paint.
I think the sponge-painting technique on the walls here is a really creative way to tie in the texture of the floor tiles.
29. Mix Patterns and Colors For A Creative Look
This restroom is so one-of-a-kind! It cleverly combines multiple patterns and colors. I love that the tiles are a mix of simple squares on the walls, gray triangles in the shower, and these cool three-dimensional cubes on the floor.
The neutral decorative elements like the artwork and the wooden cabinet pulls provide a nice contrast with the violet walls.
30. Fresh Purple Accents
This powdery lavender wall color, paired with wainscoting and a wood floor, gives the bathroom such a charming vintage farmhouse feel. A vase of long-stemmed purple lilies adds to that fresh-from-the-farm vibe.
The coordinated towels and shower curtain really emphasize the rustic charm of the space. It’s just so sweet!
31. White Decor with Purple Accents
If you have a small bathroom, you don’t have to be afraid of incorporating color. This sleek half bath already has a dramatic decorative element with its nature-inspired marble walls.
The vivid ceiling color and that geometric star-shaped light fixture are such a fun way to incorporate a sense of whimsy.
32. Stylish Jewel-Toned Bathroom
There’s nothing quite like relaxing in a hot bubble bath with a glass of wine, right? The deep colors of these bathroom walls are so reminiscent of a glass of merlot. I love it!
The white half-tile wall keeps the intense color from overpowering the room. The patterned floor tiles tie these two contrasting colors together beautifully, and that small oriental rug provides an upscale alternative to a traditional bathmat.
33. Feature Wall with Color
This large bathroom makes some bold style choices! It features a massive built-in wall unit that includes a double vanity and tons of storage.
Heather purple has gray undertones, so decorating this bathroom in neutral gray tones is a great way to tie in the wall unit while still allowing it to stand out and be the star.
34. Create A Cozy Spa Retreat
A classic clawfoot tub right in the middle of the room is the perfect centerpiece for this elegant restroom. I’m really drawn to the dusky plum wallpaper.
It has a slight texture to it, which makes the space feel so much warmer and more inviting. A sheepskin bathmat and some plush towels help bridge that gap between luxury and comfort. What a dream!
35. Minimal Purple Palette with Multiple Textures
This graphically unique bathroom has so many shapes and textures going on. It’s amazing! The circular mirror, the art deco triangle decor, and those multi-tonal tiles really take this look to the next level.
Using a limited color palette that ranges from lavender to plum is a really smart way to balance out all the bold geometric elements.
36. Gorgeous Dark Purple Color
From the marble floors to the clawfoot bathtub and the crown molding, this gorgeous bathroom boasts so many extravagant features. But honestly, it’s that deep aubergine wall color that truly amps up the drama.
The addition of wall sconces with black lampshades plays up the wall to its absolute best advantage. They cast just enough light to add dimension while seamlessly blending right into the wall.
37. Subtle and Stylish Light Lavender Decor Concept
This chic bathroom comes with multiple shades of gray, from the painted wood vanity to the chevron floor tiles and silver fixtures.
And while the walls might also appear to be gray, this bathroom uses a soft, pale lavender color that is so soothing and beautiful. A subtle shade like this can be such a great way to introduce color into a neutral space.
38. Mauve Wall with Brown Vanity and White Decor
You know, a simple coat of paint can really help upgrade those bland, builder-grade finishes. Purple and brown can be great complementary colors as long as you pay close attention to the undertones.
The large-scale tan tiles and the wooden vanity have warm tones that feel so much richer when they’re paired with this pinky mauve wall paint.
39. Lilac Purple and Gray Master Bedroom with Accents
If you’re not quite ready to permanently commit to a purple bathroom, you can start by just introducing small pops of color. It’s a great way to test the waters!
The neutral palette of this restroom is livened up by adding eggplant-hued towels and a vase of bright purple roses. These accents also help emphasize the chic details, like that ornate light fixture and the glossy geometric wallpaper.
40. Vivid Violet Paint Color
The unusual curved ceiling in this chic space reminds me of a traditional Turkish bathroom. I love architectural details like that!
The decorative elements, like a custom tile inlay on the floor and an ornate light fixture, play up this detail, while the purple walls add a more modern flair.
The natural light from the large window helps keep the violet walls from overwhelming the space.
41. Metallic and Monochromatic Purple Decor
Monochromatic rooms don’t often feel layered and romantic, but this chic powder room is definitely the exception to the rule. The room has multiple patterns in multiple finishes, from the damask floral wallpaper to the ornate metallic mirror and the engraved satin-finished vanity.
Keeping the color scheme to pink mauve shades is what keeps these elements from feeling too overwhelming. I also love the displays of dried flowers, which add contrast and texture.
42. Spring Is In The Air
The pink linen curtains and pale orchid walls give this chic bathroom such a fresh and floral feel. It’s just perfect for spring! Even the abstract gold light fixture looks like dandelion fuzz.
The sleek marble floors and minimalist gold cabinet pulls add a nice modern edge, creating a truly romantic finish.
43. Beautiful Small Purple Bathroom with Textured Lilac Wallpaper
Wrapping the textured lilac wallpaper on the ceiling as well as the walls is such a smart idea. It makes this awkwardly-angled bathroom feel cozy and elevated.
The burnished gold-framed mirror adds to the upscale feel but also serves a practical purpose: the combination of warm tones and a reflective surface makes this small, dim room feel larger and brighter.
The elegant finishes continue all the way down to the gold faucet and the custom marble vanity.
44. Simple Small Purple Bathroom
A small bathroom can feel totally upscale with the right decorating choices. I always tell my clients to consider replacing a bulky vanity with a slim pedestal sink and to choose an unframed floating mirror to create the illusion of depth.
When you have a smaller space to work with, you’ll probably want to stay away from dark colors and stick to neutrals or pastels.
45. Lavender Vanity with Cottage Elegance
The high-end finishes and marble countertops give this bathroom a really upscale feel. But I love how the cheerful lavender vanity and the pineapple-inspired wall sconce have a classic coastal Florida feel.
It makes the whole decor worthy of a high-end seaside resort. So pretty!
46. Unique Purple Color Bathroom Design
White subway tiles are a super common and expected element in a lot of modern bathrooms. This design has other understated elements too, like marble floors, silver fixtures, and a simple gray vanity.
So, using a less common paint color like periwinkle is a fantastic way to make this space feel a little more contemporary.
47. Add Tantalizing Texture and Play with Patterns
This chic contemporary bathroom adds subtle texture by using violet grasscloth wallpaper with a silvery sheen. That metallic cast ties in so nicely with the silver pendant light.
The understated wall color and furniture are the perfect backdrop, making room for a boldly patterned tile floor to really make a statement.
48. Purple Walls with White Decor
This fashionable powder room uses a limited color palette and simple geometry to make such a big style statement. I love it! The deep mauve walls are broken up by crisp white strips of wood that remind me of a chair rail.
That bright white color also shows up in the wood-framed window and the single vanity. And the gray half-tiled wall behind the vanity is made of the same glass tiles you might expect to see in a smaller backsplash.
Such a creative use of materials!
49. Neutral Colored Bathroom
Natural stone is featured heavily in this bathroom, from the floor to the tub and the countertop. The neutral tan and gray color palette would be nice but pretty unassuming if it were paired with white walls.
But the mauve wall paint is what takes the stone accents from understated to totally elevated. What a great choice!
