Hi there, are you looking to inject some life by repainting it or with the decor?

If you don't want to repaint as it's a new build a bright roller blind is a start.

Moving into a new property with a poor bathroom. We would like a walk in shower with a deep red/brown tile, one glass pane and open at the other end. Do we tile the whole room with the same tiles or add some variety? Would also like to recondition a granite trough on a rustic piece of timber for the sink ideas on colour schemes, tile suggestions etc all welcome Thanks Ash

I'm glad that they are all different from each other, with a bit of character in each. I'm working on 5 bathrooms in a house now - the client instructed me because her architect designed every one of the 5 bathrooms with the same colours and fittings.www.saralevydesigns.com

Toria - are you able to take some more recent photos that show a little more of the room? Your last post mentions mixing a colour for below the picture rail, but I can’t see a picture rail in the photo. Can I also ask a delicate question - I’ve read your post several times and appreciate the emotional ties, but what is the purpose of this makeover? Is this a house that you personally live in and will remain in, or are you preparing to put it on the market? The outcome of that question could result in different suggestions! If you intend to remain in the house, go with whatever makes you happy. Sadly, if the aim is to get it into a sellable condition, buyers are likely to want as neutral as possible because the reality is that they may very well rip it out and start again. For what it’s worth, I think your blue tones are not quite muted enough - they are all quite bright. I’m also not sure about having the peachy colours with the blue colours, one above the other separated by a picture rail or dado rail. You might be better sticking to just one colour throughout - especially as you have a coloured suite plus the tiles. Any more than that could look very busy (unless it’s a huge bathroom!!).

Totally agree with @sarahjane39!!
I even went to IKEA to get a cheap, bright print and frame :) to finish up mine (also a new build). try some darker colours if you are looking for shelves/cupboard/tallboy. Would do the same if you are going to paint the walls. A rich, dark chocolate colour will make it feels lush. Share photos when you are done please... :))

Ah... if you haven't moved in, stay off paint for a while. They can hide minor leaks! Pressure test the bathroom before painting. You will find it a lot less boring during summer! If you are ordering shutters, a non-white one might be a good option to start with. If you don't want to invest at such early stage, look up 247blinds, I always get my blinds from them and the blinds are very easy to install. Hope it helps :)

We can suggest adding some stylish bathroom accessories - towel bar rails, wall mounted soap dispenser, soap dish, tumbler. Maybe some catchy shower basket...

I would add colour buy choosing warm looking towels (red, orange etc) then using the same colour scheme add a nice vase with flowers and a roman or Venetian blind adding the colour chosen or a silver Venetian to match the silver on the shower.
Don't over do the colour, little is more.

Hi northen lights,

There are many different options however it all depends on the budget e.g. you could simply add a mirror or make new bespoke bathroom furniture.

Put a couple of floating shelves above the loo, as this is wasted space.....paint them the same colour as the walls, then stack some beautifully folded towels on them....

Maybe add a vanity unit that is not just stylish but also very practical.

We'd suggest painting the wall in a pop colour. Wouldn't suggest going too dark - maybe a pastel? Then you could bring in darker accents with your accessories. Bring some texture to that window sill too with a bamboo blind and some potted plants.

Love those units and all your ideas thanks, I take it vanity units can be build around the sink by a joiner. I like blues, aquas and greens.

Hi there, our vanity units will include a basin so there would be no need to build around the sink it would be a whole one piece unit.
