Growing up, our next-door neighbor's home was like a box of crayons. Each room had a color: the red bedroom, the blue bathroom, the green living room. Although it was a very colorful home, the individual rooms adhered to strict monochromatic schemes. Most people don't design their homes that way, but we do see this a lot in bathrooms. They're small rooms with minimal furniture that naturally lend themselves to a simple, cohesive palette. Click below for a few ideas...
I love monochromatic designs - and it seems particularly appropriate for bathrooms given their generally small spaces

I admit I tend to do this. Not 100% all the same colour, but most of it. Living room is green, Dining room brown/orange equally, master bedroom red, bathroom blue, laundry room turquoise. I like it.

I would like to start a revolt against the giant bathtubs! How does one get in and out of them? Really look at some of them and think about it. I had one in my old townhome and almost killed myself twice getting out of it (I was trying to have a spa day). After that, I used the shower only. I recently bought a townhome that had no bathtub in the master, but a very large shower and I am in love. I can stay in there for hours. Will the giant bathtub trend ever go away, because I don't want to have to install one in order to sell this place down the line...
