Pink Bathroom Tile Ideas – 14 ways to make your bathroom blossom
Once seen as a colour for nursery walls, pink has successfully made the shift from kids’ rooms to ultra-stylish, grown-up spaces. A positive, calming colour, pink has taken the design world by storm in recent years.
Hailed as the ‘new neutral’ by designers, pink is now a popular go-to for sophisticated living areas, beautiful bedrooms and of course, on-trend bathrooms.

What is the best pink for bathrooms?
From ice-cream pastels and earthy neutral shades to vibrant bubblegum and magenta, there’s a shade of pink for every bathroom. Millennial pink, a muted, blush shade is the most popular shade of pink for home decor and bathroom tiles are no exception. Said to blur the boundaries of gender and celebrate the shift in society and fashion, millennial pink is the shade for everyone.
White bathrooms can often look a little sterile so introducing a muted shade of pink is a great way to add colour, without it being overbearing. According to ‘Save the Pink Bathrooms’, pink is a popular choice for walls as the reflected rosy glow can help you to look younger and healthier, what’s not to love about that?
What other colours go with pink?
A blush shade of pink will look incredible with dark blues, greens and grey. If you’re feeling adventurous and love brights, pink will also work well with red and yellow.
If you’re worried that an all-pink bathroom will be too much, try combining it with warm neutrals or darker shades such as navy and black.

Pink and black
Art Deco-inspired pink and black tiles make a strong style statement in a bathroom. Keep walls white or paint them black to up the dramatic feel. A roll-top bath, traditional-style brassware and black and white floor complete the vintage look but pink and black will work equally well in a more contemporary home.

Pink and marble
If ever there was a match made in bathroom-style heaven, pink and marble would be right up there. If your budget doesn’t stretch to natural marble, marble-effect porcelain is almost indistinguishable from the real thing – it’s more practical for bathrooms too.

Pink and navy
Adding a pink splashback is an elegant way to bring a hint of pink into a bathroom.
Take it down a notch by painting surrounding walls in the darkest shade of blue and combining it with natural materials like wood, marble and stone.
