Please help w/ bathroom makeover!
Comments (11)I have dealt with many small bathrooms, and I know storage is a problem, but your best bet is to have nothing more than a pedestal vanity. You don't want to spend hundreds on a new piece that takes over the space. I would recommend Pinterest for some ideas on creative storage ideas for a small bathroom. You will live with this for a while, so take your time making a decision....See MoreBathroom help, please
Comments (16)Alant1000 Yes we seem to be heading in a contemporary direction, but more from necessity than choice. My husband needs the 850mm width in the Starck3 basin to get the 'shelf' either side for medical needs. The vanity is bigger and boxier than the original plan, but much more practical for him. The matching wall cabinet incorporates a sensor light for night time usage and good lighting for shaving. I'm trying to try and retain the elements of the original scheme that we really liked - the shower and the Fired Earth tiles - and switch to the Starck3 elements. I think they will work together if I can find the right paint colour. I like Campo73's use of Purbeck Stone and will get a sample, but I've also ordered samples of Benjamin Moore's Revere Pewter and Edgecombe Gray as they are also midway between brown and grey, but a bit lighter and warmer. I hope one of these three paints will tie the tiles and units together. The units are visually a bit too big for the space, but we need to be practical. If we go for a smaller unit, I'll have to create more surface space via a trolley nearby. So the 850 unit seems to be the best compromise and hopefully the pattern on the floor tiles will mean the unit is not too visually dominant....See MoreBathroom Tiling - Help please!
Comments (3)Thanks for the advice Carolina and the example :) I had thought about tiling up to the 120cm mark the whole way round previously. At the time I was thinking about going with a plain white tile so that I could change the colour if I wanted to over time. Once I found the stone effect tile, I hadn't really reconsidered that as an option. I'm struggling to leave any walls completely free as I do want to tile anywhere that could get properly wet with kids around... I should have said in my original post that I'm putting quite a large mirror behind the sink unit and the sink unit will be behind the door when you walk in. I have mosaic behind the sink in the ensuite and really like the style but not sure if I'd get the benefit of the mosaic behind the sink in this room given the size of the unit and the mirror. I'll probably look to introduce some wooden accessories, a large print to the right of the window to balance out the off centre window and (if I don't kill it), some large leafy plants (just like your example) so that in itself might add some interest!!...See MoreWood or stone effect tiles in my new bathroom ? - please help !
Comments (10)LVT is generally fine up to 27 degrees with UFH but you’d need to check the relevant make etc. A warm stone effect could work particularly if you have the room to add accessories to bring in more warmth? I don’t think a chevron wood effect would give a nautical feel and the pattern gives the effect of texture. I think any wood would work though, just avoid accessorising with anything nautical if that’s not the look you want! Do you also want to avoid pattern in the shape of the tile as opposed to a print on the tile?...See Morehortonhearsawho2013
