Thinking of updating your bathroom in 2013? Today we take a look at some of the top colour trends and inspirations.

Earthy, natural hues offer a timeless look – with whites, off-whites, beige, browns and greys being the most popular colours in bathrooms today.

However, a colourful trend looks set to be popular this year. Vibrant colours such as blues, greens, oranges or even bright pinks, when used in moderation, add a modern and stylish feel. A popular way of adding colour is by including bright mosaic tiles as borders, tile splash backs or shower floors.

Not brave enough for these more permanent options? Try including a brightly coloured printed glass shower screen, zesty painted chair, new towels, accessories and accents.
