Main Bathroom
Gone were the days of pink bathrooms (That was so 1950s).
There is nothing more grandeur than large format floor to ceiling tiles in the bathroom! The old built-in bathtub was removed and replaced with a free standing tub which was then re-position under the window, this allowed for a lot more floor space which in the end added to that grandeur feeling.
A new vanity was installed and extra cabinetry was added, because who doesn't love storage in the bathroom! Another tip to make a room feel bigger is to install a floating vanity.
Another outdated feature in the old bathroom was the timber used for the door and architrave, this was replaced with a panelled feature door which was then painted white to not only add to the modern style but also tie in with the cabinetry.
The frameless shower screen is another feature that is a great way to minimise the heaviness in the bathroom.
To ensure you get a cohesive look throughout the room, use the same feature tile in the built-in shower nook to the same tile that is used as above the vanity.
Ensuite
The ensuite is another important room of the house, especially if a family is living in the house. Who ever said they don't want a 2nd bathroom - less fights and no lines to the toilet.
What a transformation! The same tiles as the main bathroom, were also used in the ensuite, another way to make the whole house feel cohesive.
A second basin was added on top of the new floating vanity. Not only is this practical (for marital reasons), but having double basins adds that all important grandeur feeling.
Venetian blinds were a thing of the past, these were replaced with shutters and finished off in a white. A large mirror cabinet was installed to give this ensuite extra storage, but it also fills the room with light
Main Bedroom
The biggest problem in this room was the dark coloured furniture which made the room feel a bit bland and outdated. We removed the wall lights and replaced these with pendant lights hanging over both the side tables. To frame the bed we had a custom bed head made in a Warwick fabric - Bodhi in Pearl. The tufted button detailing adds a sense of luxury to this room.
New white bedside tables replaced the dark timber and a lick of paint fills the walls which gives the illusion of making the room feel bigger.
