Add Color

Bathrooms that are all white can be scary and make it seem like you are walking into a void when you have vision problems or dementia.

  • Use towels that contrast against the color of the walls.
  • Add colorful non-skid decals to the tub and shower floors.
  • Change the color of the toilet seat so it contrasts with the rest of the room.
