Red shades in the bathroom: Striking looks with Rust, Bordeaux and Peony

Reds are vibrant, warm colours. They feel stimulating and exude optimism and energy. Red shades are a perfect choice for anyone who wants to recharge their batteries and find daily inspiration in their bathroom. Admittedly, it does take a little courage. But reds have the potential to transform your bathroom into a very personal source of energy.

New colours for Artis

Artis surface-mounted washbasins provide a perfect showcase for strong colours. With their dual-colour look, combining a brilliant white interior with coloured outer surfaces, the washbasins coordinate in any bathroom, even if other ceramic fittings are in classic white. In 2021, the German-Danish designer Gesa Hansen has added two new rich red shades to the Artis colour palette, Bordeaux and Rust. Bordeaux evokes images of the intensive hues of ripe grapes, while Rust is a warm shade with an earthy, natural feel.

Perfect combinations

Red is a strong colour that needs a sparring partner to reveal its full effect in the bathroom. Bold combinations, for example, a red basin on a matt black vanity unit, increase the intensity. Another combination with a guaranteed wow effect: Artis with a Finion vanity unit in Peony, a shade inspired by the vibrant red of blossoming peonies.

Wood tones and natural shades such as Sand or light Grey, on the other hand, create a harmonising effect. They offset the vibrancy of red colours and emphasise their warm, cosy character.

Captivating effects on the wall

Reds also look good on bathroom walls. They contrast ideally with pure white ceramic and infuse a room with warmth and energy. In many cases, painting a single wall is enough to achieve the desired effect: whether in earthy Terracotta, lush Orange or glamorous Fuchsia.
