I recently remodeled my bathroom and I was building everything around a turquoise vanity well we had to settle with black. What colors should I add to make the place look great? Should I add pop of color for the bath mat and shower curtain. What decor should I use? Need help, and someone with a good eye for design.

Add big bold color! You’ve got great basics here. A painting above the toilet, colorful towels and mat, and a coordinating shower curtain would look great.
Wallpaper?
You’ve got a great base to work with here, just needs a few warmer, more layered touches to bring it to life.
I’d start with a fabric shower curtain (something a little more cozy and textured) to soften the space and introduce some color. That’s an easy way to add personality without a big commitment.
If you’re open to it, swapping out the black fixtures could make a big difference. They can read a bit dated, whereas something like an oil-rubbed bronze would add warmth and feel a bit more timeless.
Small upgrades will go a long way too… like a more elevated wastebin and toilet brush holder (an antique-inspired metal could be really nice). You could also switch out the cabinet pulls for something more unique. Anthro-style hardware could add a fun, design-forward touch.
And I’d definitely add a piece of art above the toilet to make the space feel more finished and intentional.
Overall, you’re very close! Just needs a few thoughtful details to tie it all together.
Oooo the black is so 80s new art deco, green and pink pastels with touches of black would look great, along with Cala Lily. I’m imagining sculpted planters and a colorful bath mat.
If you don’t want to paint, hang a large framed piece of art from icanvas or art dot com in the wall space above the toilet. I would pick something colorful. Change the shower curtain to a more spa-like waffle weave. The AmazerBath Waffle Shower Curtain on Amazon comes in Khaki to blend with your beautiful flooring, and form a neutral canvas. Your towels can be a vibrant color that picks up a color from your art.

Your floor is fun. I see midcentury. Adding a fun piece of art that has teal in it would look nice.
