Trend of the moment: black baths

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Black baths are a real bathroom trend that we love and would love to share with you. The black statement bathtub is a way to add a bold look to your space. It makes for a stylish look! Especially if you have a flat white scheme or a color palette that needs a boost. It is always difficult to achieve an all-black color scheme because black often makes a space look claustrophobic and gloomy, but when black is used sparingly it works wonders to highlight certain aspects of a space, no matter what the style of the room.

There are a number of ways to add this versatile color to your existing bathroom design or renovation, but the trick is to choose where you want to use this color so it doesn’t overwhelm your space.

To get you started, several black baths will be introduced to you in this article. And maybe you will come across your dream bath!
