As a general rule, coastal themes, colorful abstract work, and botanical and abstract art are usually the best types of art for bathroom decor. However, it is very important to consider the surrounding theme and style of the bathroom when choosing an art style. It’s always best to harmonize your bathroom wall art with available bathroom accessories. Select the art that will complement the undertones of the color palette of your bathroom. How do you do that? It’s easy; think of the overall atmosphere you’d like to establish for your bathroom; calming, stimulating, or classy. Now pick up a piece of art that exudes the atmosphere you want to depict. If you're not so sure, you can barely go wrong with white textured wall art or just opt for abstract art.
Lastly, ensure to integrate the wall art with other designs like tile patterns, counters, and cabinets. This way, the wall art reflects the ambiance of the bathroom.
Choosing the Perfect Size and Placement
Picture a wide art piece hanging over your cistern in a tight and clumsy space. Doesn’t look nice right? Your wall space and the art size are very important when choosing colorful wall art to put in a bathroom. You must look at the dimensions of your bathroom and the wall space available before choosing the perfect art piece for the wall.
Depending on the style you’re going for and the other decor in your bathroom, you may need an art piece smaller or the exact size of the wall space. Small bathrooms should preferably be decorated with minimalist abstract art while bigger or more spacious bathrooms can contain a large wall art.
You can install a large textured wall art above the bathtub, which would significantly enhance the atmosphere of the bathroom. An empty wall in the bathroom, or near the vanity also Steve as a perfect position for art pieces.
Another important condition to take note of is the beauty and symmetry of the art pieces. Don't make the mistake of overloading a particular space or wall with too much colorful artwork or large paintings. In most cases art overload in a small space results in cluttering. Hence, choose a moderate design proportional to the layout of the bathroom.
