Gold Bathroom - luxury and extraordinary design

Psychological effect
Since ancient times, gold has been considered a jewel, and its presence spoke of wealth and prosperity. Psychologists say that the color gold expresses a feeling of warmth, radiance of sunlight, wisdom and glory. Our subconscious mind perceives this color as a symbol of the abundance of the universe. That is why, even though there are more precious metals, gold is still a desirable luxury.

In antiquity and during the Renaissance, gold was very popular in interior decoration and creation. And in our time it has not lost its appeal, so designers often use it in their work.

In the design of bathrooms it is used quite rarely, but in skillful hands a golden bath can become a wonderful and magical place for relaxation and rest. What could learn a little about the design of such a bathroom, let's turn to the rules of decorating and tips of designers.



The rules of decorating
Decor in the gold color is a choice for people who love sophistication.
Designers advise:
- Apply such a color in spacious bright bathrooms. A large amount of light allows gold to reveal its brilliance and beauty;
- it is desirable that the main background of the room be light;
- Perhaps the most important rule will be the "sense of proportion";
- So that the bathroom does not look pompous and tasteless, designers suggest using the rule of harmony in handling it.
- The combination of gold details and the main background should not exceed a ratio of 3:1;
- The unity of style, must be respected everywhere and always.






For the bathroom in the style of minimalism and high-tech gold colors and details are used very rarely. In other cases, its nobility combined with modern materials is an excellent solution for bathroom design. Gold requires special attention to itself, and to the finish of the main background.
Pastels and light tones go very well with gold, as they perfectly emphasize its glow, which creates a feeling of enlarging the space. It is important not to have too many gold details.

Bathtub
Surprisingly, gold bathtubs do exist. They are usually made to order, and they are suitable for large bathrooms. In a modern bathroom, a white bathtub with gold elements, such as faucets and gold-colored trim, will fit perfectly.



Tiles and accessories
If you want such a bathroom, a great solution can be a tile finish in gold. Most often, tiles of this color are used only partially. This can be a finish near the mirror, a tiled border or an elegant addition to the combination of other colors. Effectively looks in the bathroom one wall, lined with gold-colored tile.

Professional designers often use vertical or horizontal strips of tile to visually divide the room into zones. Gold small tiles look great in the form of patterns, small mosaics and ornaments.
Gold tiles are recommended to combine with accessories and additions of the same color, such as curtains with a similar finish, mirror frame, faucets, hangers, handles, cups and various other little things.





Combination with other shades
The ideal colors to combine are light, pastel colors. Soft, light, tones allow gold to shine and reflect its sunny, warm energy.
Gold also combines with chocolate and terracotta colors. The combination of black and gold is very mysterious and exquisite. However, this design is only suitable for spacious rooms.
Cherry, purple, emerald and turquoise colors suit well for combinations with gold accessories and trim. With this color will look great with a light glossy ceiling, walls combined with different colors and materials, furniture and floors of dark colors.









Recommendations of designers
Designers advise:
- Be careful with the gold color. The main thing is a sense of proportion in everything;
- It is very important to see the whole picture in the bathroom. Much depends on the size of the space, on the amount and type of lighting, and on the overall atmosphere;
- With an overall dark background, there shouldn't be a lot of gold. If there is a lot of it, it is necessary to have matching colors in the room;
- accessories and decor should be chosen, having thought through in advance their combinations with the design as a whole.
It is a gorgeous color. But you have to use it in moderation. My acquaintance has a gold bathroom, gold there - the main color. It is not very cozy to be in it.
