Top View of Classic 1970s 1980s green avocado bathroom suite WHB from England, Great Britain, UK
While a cultural revolution was underway in '60s society, a color revolution was taking place in UK and American bathrooms. Avocado green and other colors were all the rage beginning in the late '60s and lasting through the late '70s for bathroom tubs, sinks and toilets. Over the years, avocado bathroom suites went out of style, but not all of them went away. If your home has a bathroom with avocado fixtures, you have several options for giving it an update. Retro Avocado Bathroom Suites If you inherited a bathroom with avocado green fixtures from your home's previous owners, try taking an if-you-can't-beat-them-join-them approach. Embrace your bathroom's retro vibe and decorate it 1970s style. Paint the walls pale green and choose mod-print fabrics for the shower curtain and window treatments. You want the end result to look retro and cool, not dated and dingy, so choose accessories that are authentic, but in good condition. Search secondhand stores for wall art, vanity mirrors and other period pieces and give them a good cleaning before putting them on display. To complete the look, cover the floor with a fluffy green rug and illuminate the vanity with vintage sconces or pendant lamps.
