Setting colour trends in the bathroom with RONAL Bathrooms
June 2024
Between physics and emotion
From a physical point of view, colours are created by the refraction and absorption of incident light on differently structured surfaces. The human eye recognises the reflections of light as colours. We can distinguish between around 2 million colours.
In contrast to the sober, physical explanation, colours trigger emotional relationships to places, spaces, situations and memories in our subjective perception.
Colours as design codes
Colours and colour combinations function like codes for entire design worlds and style eras. A convincing example is pop art, whose bold colour designs shaped an entire generation. Colour trends reflect social, technological, economic and ecological developments.
Colour Trends
What are the current colour trends?
The RONAL Bathrooms colour trends stand for a relaxed, natural, high-quality and in any case expressive lifestyle. The colour trends are the basis for combining functional and design elements under one aesthetic roof.
Four concepts
Salone del Mobile 2024 - four bathroom concepts
At one of the world's most important furniture and design trade fairs, the Salone del Mobile in Milan, 2024, RONAL Bathrooms presented 4 concepts that reflect current bathroom trends. Colour, metal, space and wellness. We go into the colour concept in more detail in this article.
Overall design
Colours for a coordinated overall design
In the bathroom, colours can create an aesthetic link - for example between functional elements such as washbasins, shower enclosures, shower trays and bathroom furniture. How can colour trends be created with RONAL Bathrooms products? For example, with different shades of colour from light to dark green, a beige-coloured countertop washbasin, furniture fronts with a 3D structure from the Rigo furniture concept and matt black surfaces of the BLACK LINE AMALIA shower solutions. This transforms your bathroom into a harmonious, colour-coordinated wellness landscape.

With the AIR shower tray, you can create colour solutions that not only reflect current trends, but also set your own personal accents. The Mineralite shower tray is available in matt white, hemp, anthracite and other RAL colours on request. The bathroom furniture in the Rigo collection with 3D-structured furniture fronts complements coloured surfaces with spatial and visual accents. This further enhances the originality of a colour concept.
Colours of nature
With the colours of nature
Natural or soft colours such as beige, grey or pastel shades make bathrooms appear larger and more spacious. They reflect the light, open up the room and create a relaxed, calming, spa-like atmosphere. For example with walk-in showers or for wellness rooms with CHILLOUT sauna, CHILLOUT hammam, wellness bathtub - and INMAN InSens, the first intelligent shower that saves wate
Emphasise high quality with dark colours.
Dark and saturated colours create a personal, intimate and high-quality atmosphere. Anthracite or forest green, for example, look like a stage that can be perfectly used with the RONAL Bathrooms bathroom furniture from the KAROL furniture collection, designer bathtubs or shower trays.
Monochrome versus metallic.
Combining monochrome colours with metallic tones such as grey and bronze creates a modern and sophisticated look in the bathroom. Monochrome colours on the wall behind the washbasin and the cabinet serve as a base. The AMALIA shower solution, for example, creates counterpoints. The shower solutions are available in high-gloss, matt black or brushed gold.
Tips
Tips for implementing the RONAL Bathrooms colour trends.
Trends that last longer.
Some colours trends or colour combinations stay current longer than others. Neutral and classic colours have a lasting aesthetic appeal. Current colour accents can be set with bathroom furniture that is easier to replace than a shower solution, for example. RONAL Bathrooms colour trends offer perfect scope for a lasting personal style statement.
How colour and function work together perfectly.
Let's also consider function when choosing a colour. In regions with calcareous water, dark colours lead to more cleaning problems than a light-coloured shower tray, for example. Light colours are preferable in wellness areas because they promote relaxation and balance.
