In 2025, yellow is the trending bathroom colour, bringing warmth, joy, and light into your space. Whether it's a soft buttercream or bold mustard, yellow can instantly lift your mood and transform even the smallest bathroom into a cheerful retreat.

But it’s more than just fresh tiles and new taps. It’s about creating a space that grows with you. Whether you're renovating your first home or crafting your dream bathroom, these changes can stay with you for decades. And what better way to welcome that new chapter than with the warmth and optimism of a yellow bathroom?

Think about it: wouldn’t it be nice to start and end each day in a space that feels like your own sunny escape? (No matter what our lovely British weather is doing). 

Why a Yellow Bathroom?

Yellow isn’t just a nostalgic colour; it’s scientifically proven to make us feel good. Colour psychologists say yellow is tied to happiness, optimism, and energy - empowering creative processes and improving cognitive functioning. It’s the colour of sunflowers, sandy beach days, and that favourite jumper you pull on when the weather turns grey. As Vincent Van Gogh once said, “How wonderful yellow is. It stands for the sun.”

With another round of New Year’s resolutions on the way, we could all use a bit of extra positivity to start the day.

If you struggle to get out of bed in the morning, especially in the depths of winter, a yellow bathroom design might be just what you need to boost your mood in the early hours. It acts like a shot of serotonin, helping you start your day with a smile.

Brighten Dark Bathrooms and Add Character With Yellow

If your bathroom is a bit on the small side or doesn’t get much natural light, yellow can work wonders. Acting like a dose of natural sunlight, it brightens dark spaces and makes even the tiniest bathrooms feel bigger and more inviting. And if your bathroom bakes in harsh afternoon light, softer yellows like buttery creams can help tone down the glare, creating a calm, peaceful atmosphere.

Yellow Pairings and Design Ideas

Yellow’s not a solo act. It pairs beautifully with a range of colours, giving you endless possibilities for creating a yellow bathroom that suits your style:

• Yellow and White: A classic, fresh combo that keeps your bathroom light and airy.
• Yellow and Grey: A modern, grounding pairing that balances yellow’s energy with cool, neutral tones.
• Yellow and Navy Blue: Bold and sophisticated — often associated with regal or classic styles.
• Yellow and Green: Especially with sage or olive tones, this nature-inspired palette feels calming and earthy for your bathroom. 
• Yellow and Light Blue: Soft sky blues create a fresh, uplifting space when paired with yellow.
• Yellow and Pink: Perfect for a cheerful, Instagram-worthy vibe; think pale blush with pops of vibrant yellow.
• Yellow and Brown: A warm, earthy combo that adds depth, perfect for traditional or rustic settings.
• Yellow and Black: Striking and graphic, this pairing makes yellow pop for a modern, bold look.
• Yellow and Orange: Retro-inspired, this lively duo brings vibrant energy to your bathroom.
