For far, far too long, we've accepted the idea that our bathroom fixtures all had to be one monotonous sweep of bright, sterile white. A white sink, a white toilet, and a white bath to match. What an absolute bore. Which is exactly why, in 2026, we're officially turning a new leaf and embracing bright, bold, and brilliant colors for our bathroom sinks.
"We’re so used to white as the go-to color for bathroom furniture – it’s utterly predictable, and we’re often wedded to the idea that the toilet, sink, and bath all have to match," says Rob Whitaker, creative director of Claybrook. But, he continues, "Adding a jolt of color with a stylish basin creates an immediate sense of personality and interest. It makes a welcome point of difference and a talking point in a room that can otherwise fall into the trap of being functional over joyful."
