If you’ve ever stepped into an American home built in the 1940s or ‘50s, we're pretty sure we know what you saw: pink bathrooms. And we’re not just talking about a simple coat of rose quartz. We’re talking pink tile walls and flooring, pink tubs and even pink toilets. Pam Kueber, the creator of the Save the Pink Bathrooms movement, estimates that pink — a wildly popular color choice at the time — went into five million American homes.
If the thought of a cotton-candy-colored space turns you off as way outdated, you may want to reconsider as more and more homeowners see pink as a plus. Check out some of our favorite pink bathroom designs, including this striking contemporary bathroom in which pink tile takes center stage.
