How to style the 'Dopamine' trend
Dopamine decor isn’t about chaos, it’s about colour confidence. Here’s how to bring this playful, energising style into your bathroom, without it feeling chaotic or overwhelming.
2. Layer in colourful accessories
Dopamine decor doesn’t require a full remodel. Bright towels, coloured grout or a statement mirror can create impact with minimal effort. Choose colours that make you feel good. Try to repeat your hero colour at least twice in the space to create a cohesive look.
3. Play with pattern and texture
Finding out what your colour mood is doesn't always translate to vibrant and bold shades. Sometimes, it can be more about softer, calmer tones, textures, finishes and patterns. Don’t be afraid to mix materials, either. Pair a concrete basin with terrazzo tiles, fluted finishes or playful wallpaper. The contrast between texture and tone is what gives dopamine decor its charm.
4. Keep It balanced
Dopamine decor isn’t about maximalism for the sake of it. Think curated colour, not chaos. Pair bright pieces with clean lines, white space and simple silhouettes to let your accents shine.
