Toilets in black and colors
The use of black in a small space is a bold choice, but it pays off, especially to create a cozy atmosphere. However, if the total look worries you, it is possible to adopt black as the dominant color, and to introduce a few notes of luminous, tender or vibrant color.
The association of black and white remains a classic. These two extremes create a dynamic contrast, and this play of shadow and light brings a nice relief to the toilet… provided that they are well dosed! In a very small space, we therefore associate a painted wall or a base with wallpaper, or we adopt graphic tiling and plain walls.
We love the choice of ultra-contemporary black toilets in this interior of molded ceiling styles. We love the choice of a very modern sage green which brings a touch of freshness.
Very chic – and very trendy! – the combination of black and navy blue. In this neo-classical interior, the tandem is sublimated by the lights and the fittings, pretexts to add a few touches of brass.
Floral wallpaper remains a safe bet, including in the toilets. We just make sure to choose colors and prints carefully. In white or in colour, favor large format flowers on a black background: you are sure to be right in the current trend! Here, we have adopted a bubble gum pink on the door which happily plays down this baroque print.
Toilets in red and black? Even if it means adopting this fiery duo, fall for an original wallpaper. In the toilets, the trend is for animal wallpaper or underwater motifs. Here, we adopted a pattern with a very jungle spirit on an orange-red background to mark the spirits.
Black toilets: art and matter
Black is the muted color par excellence. It therefore sublimates both colors and materials. Suffice to say that by choosing it to dress the toilets, you have a real ally to compose a really hot decor!

Stone and wood are the two major trends of the season, and these two go together perfectly. Here’s a surefire way to transform a very demure black toilet into a refined, ultra-trendy space.
The cabinet of curiosities, you dream of it, but you don’t really have a place to install it? Never mind: invest the toilet!
The frame wall works perfectly in the black toilet. For maximum effect, do not hesitate to think big and fully invest the available wall space to create an art gallery style decor. This option is especially good if you’re the type who likes to give the house a makeover – including the toilets – at regular intervals.
The alternative to the wall of frames is the wall of mirrors. In the black toilets, we exhibit our prettiest retro models, which this dark background will not fail to sublimate.
Black toilets without a false note: tips
Sublime, the black toilets! To create a truly harmonious and pleasant space, however, we take care of a few key points.
In a small space, everything is in the nuance. And while black can be cozy, it can also be overwhelming. The secret is to apply the color taking into account the particularities of the room. In these red and black toilets, we opted for black tiling and a herringbone pattern on the floor and even on the base, which visually enlarges the room. Above all, we adopted the white ceiling: a simple and effective trick to boost the ceiling height.
In these small black toilets, no ceiling height problem to deplore. On the other hand, the space is particularly narrow. So we cleverly positioned the frame wall on the side wall, keeping the opposite wall and the wall facing the door in black, to visually expand the room.
By definition, black darkens a room – and toilets are also frequently windowless. To adopt black toilets, it is therefore essential to take care of the lighting. And this can even be an opportunity to have an effect. Here, the suspension falls very low, which helps to reduce the ceiling height. For the floor tiles, we opted for a touch of white, which boosts the light.
In these small black toilets, we chose the white ceiling to give height to the room. We also play with its reflective properties, with a ceiling light, to benefit from maximum brightness.
