If you're looking to design a bathroom that's a bit different from the all-white standard you'll find in any home, a green bathroom could be the way to go. Light green has been taking the interior design world by storm over the past few years, so it's no surprise it's popping up in bathroom remodeling trends this year.
We've rounded up some of our favorite light green bathroom ideas to inspire you to bring more color into your home.
From cool Xtera Blue to striking Patton Laurel, our impressive selection of ready-to-assemble and pre-assembled cabinets offers colors and styles to complement every bathroom design.
1. Matching Green Tile Countertops
When you're not sure how to pull your bathroom together, consider matching the shade of your countertops to your wall color. Keep the rest of your decor simple to keep the space from being too busy.
2. Use Mint Green for a Preppy Touch
Paint the walls mint green for a preppy touch in a more traditional bathroom. Tie it in with accents in darker green if you're worried about the space looking too bright.
3. Bring a Neutral Space to Life with Plants
If you're not ready to commit to new tile or paint, plants are an easy way to bring green into your bathroom. Place them on shelves and windowsills to brighten up the room and bring it to life.
4. Highlight Panel Molding in Green
Panel or crown molding is a highly coveted feature in a home, so why not highlight it? Painting panel molding green is an interesting twist on this feature.
5. Put a Twist on Traditional With Sage Green
If you have a traditional interior design style, you can still rock a green bathroom! Go with a more neutral sage green shade and tie it in with warm-toned decor.
6. Add Green Accents
If you're looking for a green bathroom without a complete remodel, one option is to add green decor. Mirrors, picture frames, and trinkets are all simple ways to incorporate your favorite color into your bathroom. Tackle organizing your bathroom first to keep the space looking perfectly decorated - not cluttered.
7. Use Natural Wooden Accents
Wooden accents in a green bathroom go with many different interior design styles, from organic to Mid-Century Modern. Add wooden shelving, storage, or even a wooden countertop to bring everything together.
8. Strike Gold With Unique Hardware
Light green bathrooms are more versatile than you'd think! When you want to use some statement gold features such as a faucet or showerhead, green tiling can help them pop and feel extra luxurious.
9. Add Sage Green Paneling
Sage green paneling adds a fun and sophisticated touch to any light green bathroom. Use this feature as a statement wall behind your vanity or a standalone tub to feel like you're at an island getaway every day.
10. Use Teal Green Tile for an Upscale Feel
If you want to join in on the green bathroom trend but give it more of a regal, upscale feel, try a color that leans more teal. Jewel tones like this work well with many different neutrals, so you don't need to think too hard about how you'll work with this statement in your bathroom.
11. Keep It Light With Cool-Toned Mint Green
Ultra-light mint green colors are always a home run in a bathroom. Especially in smaller bathrooms, a light mint green opens up the room and can help it feel bigger.
12. Add a Pop of Sage to a White Bathroom
Feeling a little meh about your all-white bathroom but not ready to commit to a full remodel? With just a little sage green paint, you can breathe life into your space.
13. Use a Light Green Statement Tile
Consider a statement tile when you're redoing your floors or the shower in your bathroom. A light green statement tile such as this herringbone pattern adds the perfect amount of color to your light green bathroom.
14. Show Off an Understated Green Vanity
Next time you're shopping to replace or repaint the cabinets in your bathroom, consider going with a light green color. Green cabinets can help brighten up every day, from your morning to bedtime routine.
15. Use Olive Green for a Modern Farmhouse Feel
Modern farmhouse bathrooms take the more traditional farmhouse style and add some updated touches, such as modern hardware. Some olive green paint injects color into a farmhouse bathroom and looks great with a variety of finishes and wooden accessories.
16. Add Intrigue With Green Micro Tiles
You can't go wrong with a simple grid micro tile in your bathroom, but what if you're looking for a twist on this classic feature? A green tile makes this classic bathroom a little more interesting.
17. Go Vintage With a Green Tub and Sinks
Once seen as an outdated feature, colorful bathtubs and sinks are coming back. If you're living in an older house or installing these new, integrate a few pops of this color with your countertop or tile and keep the rest of the bathroom neutral for a well-balanced space.
18. Pair Olive Green With Trendy White Subway Tile
Subway tile has been back in a big way for the past few years, but too much white can make your bathroom feel clinical. Warm up the space by pairing it with pops of olive green.
19. Add Pops of Green With Wallpaper
Wallpaper in a bathroom is an easy way to make the room feel complete without devoting too much energy to finding decor. Use a wallpaper with pops of green in the pattern, then complement it with a dark or light green statement wall.
20. Travel Back to Mid-Century Modern
Mid-Century Modern bathrooms are known for working well with pops of color. If you're a fan of Mid-Century Modern interior design, this is a perfect opportunity to live out your light green bathroom dreams.
21. Use Tuscan-Inspired Tile
Tuscan-inspired tile is very common in bathrooms. It's no surprise that olive green works well with this theme, considering the region is renowned for its olives!
