My first thought is that the bed looks a little close to the furniture across from the foot of it. I might try the bed on the window wall and instead of the piece on the wall that has the door, eliminate it and get two bedside table pieces with storage to accommodate whatever you were going to store in the piece across from the foot of the bed in your plan. I like beige and gray schemes in the bedroom too, and find some live green plants add a perfect spot of color, or perhaps a kind of acid green silk texture throw pillow. My suggestion is to browse Houzz photos and save the color schemes that you really love! Adding something sparkly will pep up a design that you think is too monochromatic as well - some silver or crystal bling? I added some bling-y chandeliers on either side of the bed in one of my bedrooms, which is fairly monochromatic in beige and gray tones. Some of the throw pillows also have a silvery touch in them.

So many times I've come across articles which focus on design and ignore practicality. False walls and concealed pipe runs look great and but require absolute competence from the plumber to avoid leaks. Don't spend £1000's on decoration and £40 on cheap taps which will not last long. Spend money on getting the tanking done properly so that showers don't leak and if fitting a freestanding bath seal around the base so that water from splashes does not run under and drip onto the ceiling below. Just remember that every concealed joint on water carrying pipework is a potential leak and any repairs will ruin the lovely finish you have spent hours agonising over. Oh and don't forget to install a good water softener to keep everything limescale free or those nice new surfaces will soon look tired.

We are looking for the same type of tiles to use on the wall of the sink. The whole bathroom will be a toned down yellow (that's the idea for now) and a secluded shower area - turquoise. The idea is to make it Spanish style, ao there will be a lot of dark wood wood (beams, mirror, sink plank, maybe some more planks, wooden door), some old school wall lights. Shower head and tap are supposed to be bronze color, the old school type. And we'll have plants hanging and standing around. Only not sure about the floor tiles yet. My husband wants it all in pebbles, but i'm not sure it will look nice

I like the blue - and for me, I think I would prefer to replace the border tiles with the same. However I appreciate it can be really tricky to find the exact tile! As an latter native I would consider maybe using a wood effect slatted style tile like these - and I would also get the tiler to tile the bath panel and the boxing in around the sink.
