The solution for a beautiful but cold bathroom is a rich paint color on the walls.

Before: Although this is a beautiful bathroom that looks finished, the homeowner loves autumnal tones and would like to add more color and accessories to make it warmer.

After: A portrait painted by the homeowner of her daughter inspired the color choices. The dark brown walls highlight the granite countertops and add the desired warmth.

Before: The window over the tub is a nice size, but the light walls and swag aren't very dramatic. The window treatment doesn't allow for privacy or light control either.

After: A silk valance, dark walls, red accent towels and a vase full of pussy willows add interest and height while wooden blinds offer light control and privacy when needed.
Hosts Matt Fox and Shari Hiller have the perfect design solution for this plain master bathroom. They meet with the homeowner, Aimee Bachna, and find inspiration in a portrait that she painted of her daughter. A rich wall color, window treatments and beautiful oak trim pull the project together.
