Re: Red Bathrooms? with pic!
If the room is small, I'd probably opt for one of the beige colors, and perhaps you can put in a red accent stripe at the top or the middle of the wall.

Red would look great in a small bathroom.
My aunt has one and I love it (sorry no pics!).
Not sure if it's just my computer, but the set you picked looks more terra cotta then red.

Re: Red Bathrooms? with pic!
We have a 1/2 bath that is red and it looks really dark. It's on our list of rooms to re-paint but it will be a while.
If the room isn't too small, I would go for it. But if it is on the small side, I would maybe do 1 wall red and the rest the beige colors.

ideally i really want to do the red.. not too dark.. but i think it would look so nice.
i guess if i had to, i can always do a accent wall.

I don't remember the name, but we still have it in our closet so I will look tonight.
When I first started painting it looked like it was going to be fire engine red, but it dried very nicely.

I have a tiny 1/2 red bath and LOVE it. Check out my house album for pics.
eta: in the photo it looks more "hot pink" but in person is a deep cranberry.

Re: Red Bathrooms? with pic!
I think it would look great. Do you have a window in that room? Maybe do the half wall if you are worried about it being too dark. How about these for inspiration.

My cousin's bathroom is tiny, and she used the same colors you like. They used beige tile for the first four feel of wall, then painted red from that point to the ceiling. I think it looks great!

Re: Red Bathrooms? with pic!
i think it will look great. small rooms warrant a dramatic color palette. in the initial planning process i was thinking of painting the powder room red.
here are some inspirational pics i saved. sorry but no paint color names.

Re: Red Bathrooms? with pic!
we used a color called Gaucho Brown (BM) which is almost a caramel which I think would go nicely with that set
