Making a Splash: The Return of Colorful Plumbing Fixtures

At Terry’s Plumbing, we’re always excited to share the latest plumbing trends that can transform your home. Today, we’re thrilled to highlight one of the most eye-catching movements in bathroom design: the return of colorful plumbing fixtures.

A Colorful History Returns

The ’70s are back in a big way in home design, and colorful plumbing fixtures are leading this nostalgic revival. From toilets and bathtubs to sinks in shades beyond the traditional white, this trend is bringing renewed personality to bathrooms across the country.

Major manufacturers are embracing this trend, recently announcing the return of popular archived colors. But don’t worry—these aren’t exactly like your grandmother’s outdated bathroom. Today’s colorful fixtures feature sleeker shapes, minimalist lines, and modern finishes that create a fresh take on retro style.

Tips for Incorporating Colorful Fixtures

If you’re considering adding a splash of color to your bathroom through plumbing fixtures, here are some professional tips:

Choose subdued tones for longevity: Consider fixtures in more subdued tones such as pastel blues, greens, and pinks rather than bright, bold hues. These softer colors keep the design feeling fresh and modern rather than dated.
Balance with neutrals: Incorporate neutral tones elsewhere in the space to complement a colorful fixture. Choose a neutral wall color, countertops, or flooring to create a harmonious and balanced look while still making a statement.
Pair with timeless materials: Combine colorful fixtures with classic materials like wood, tile, and marble. This approach helps ensure your bathroom design remains stylish regardless of changing trends.
Consider your commitment level: While it may be tempting to update multiple fixtures with colorful versions, it’s important to be confident with your decision. Bathroom fixtures can be easy to replace, but they represent a significant investment.
