Black walls can completely shift the feel of your bathroom, giving the space a stronger, more grounded look. The colour creates a clear backdrop that makes your furniture, brassware and lighting stand out more noticeably. In smaller areas, a black feature wall often works best while in larger rooms you can carry the colour further without it feeling heavy.

The finish itself is easy to manage as long as you choose the right surface. Smooth panels, tiles or waterproof boards all give you a steady look that's simple to wipe down. If you want your bathroom to feel sharper and more confident instead of soft and neutral. Black walls give you that look immediately and set the tone for the entire room.
