Internally a palette of existing granite walls has been paired with Jerusalem limestone stone flooring from Mandarin Stone , and wide-plank oak flooring. Existing timber ceiling and roof structures have been retained where possible – retaining the character of the property. Feature panels of black walnut line the kitchen and entrance hall joinery, adding warmth to the calm colour palette.

Who doesn’t love a clean classic modern style bathroom? I find a white bathroom always looks fresh, light, and most importantly, clean. The existing bathroom layout was kept with minimal layout changes such as relocating the entrance to the walk-in closet which created more wall space for the vanity. The existing privacy room for the toilet was kept as-is since the ensuite is an open concept. Incorporated a larger custom walk-in shower with a bench and niche, and a freestanding soaker bathtub in front of the window. When you are creating a modern design using mostly white finishes, such as you see here, you need to be strategic and intentional with the use of textures. The cabinetry is a flat white painted surface in Benjamin Moore’s Chantilly Lace, therefore when selecting the tiles for the shower, we opted for a geometric three-dimensional polished tile to contrast the flat texture found on the vanity. Designed a feature wall in wood accent between the bathtub and primary bedroom. Allows for a beautiful visual separation between both spaces. Adding matte black faucets and fixtures creates a bold accent. Carrying through the black finish on the shower frame and hardware carries this beautiful detail across all areas of the ensuite. It is distributed and dispersed evenly across the entire design.

Both of these bathrooms have a very eclectic vibe. They stand out in their own way, one with bold patterns, and one with drastic elegant features. In the master bath we used a Carrera marble for the counter top, and utilized the same marble for the shower seat and the shower dam. On the vanity we used a square undermount sink, topped with a Moen faucet in an 8 inch spread. Under the countertop sits a clean, white painted raised panel cabinet with drawers to match. However, the true feature is the mosaic 2x2 hexagon pattern mosaic Carrera marble back splash. Choosing to tile the entire wall made the small vanity a true feature in the space. Another feature is the gorgeous shower, utilizing the same 2x2 mosaic marble on the top 1/3, and the shower floor. A 4x12 beveled subway tile was used on the majority of the shower wall. Matching the chrome features, we used a Moen faucet with a standard shower head, hand shower on a rail, and a wall mounted transfer valve. A simple shower niche with a 16” top portion, and a small 3” lower, with the Carrera marble insert to separate them. The flooring is a specially designed 6x16 matte finish porcelain tile, laid in a herringbone pattern for form and function in this small but elegant master bath. The guest bathroom boasts a brand new shower and tub combo reaching all the way up. What use to be a tub with drywall, is now a classic fabric looking 12x24 commercially rated porcelain tile. Including the window, so it can be used as its own shower niche of sorts. Yet again we offered a standard shower, and hand shower combination, but with a transfer valve connected to the shower head. We used our pride and joy, the floated shower and paired it with a shorter 15 inch tub height, to keep the water in, but offer an easier entrance to the shower area. The flooring is again a feature unto itself with the 20x20 varied patterned tile that matches the fabric tile of the shower space. A vanity that mimics the master bathroom including the square undermount sink, the chrome Moen faucet in an 8 inch spread, and the pulls on the cabinet doors, and knobs on the drawers.

Bathroom Design Ideas with a Corner Shower

If you’re looking for bathroom ideas, look no further than Houzz. Our image gallery brings you a large range of photos with inspiration for your viewing pleasure, and not only that - you can also save your ideas in ideabooks and find the professional that has done the job. When planning your bathroom design or update, start by collecting images of designs you like and take it from there. Whether you are designing your bathroom from scratch, redesigning, updating or simply decorating, you’ll be sure to find ideas for every possible scenario. And once you're ready, you can find the architect and/or builder to get the job done. But let’s start with the bathroom design basics.

How to Plan Your Bathroom Design

A good bathroom design brings together beauty and functionality. It reflects your personality in its style, colours, fittings and fixtures, but serves your needs to a tee both when you’re getting ready for work in the morning and when you want to wind down in your bathtub after a long day.

1 Collect Bathroom Ideas to Decide on Your Layout

Firstly, consider your space. Is it rectangular or are you working with a long, narrow room? This will determine how many wet walls you can accommodate, and if a bathtub can fit. For example, in a narrow room a freestanding bathtub may not work, and a one-wall layout that lines up shower, toilet and vanity on the same wall will make sense in most cases. (It’s also the most budget-friendly option in terms of plumbing). Maybe separate rooms for toilet and shower make sense? Maybe you want to work with a window above a bathtub or in the shower. You may live in an old house where you can keep some of the original character of the home, or you may be working with a small apartment space. All these considerations are vital in deciding on which layout will work best for you. Have a look at some popular ideas to get started.

2 Consider How You Use Your Bathroom

Once you’ve gathered some inspiration, have a think about who is using the room, and how they will be using it. A single guy needs a lot less storage than a teenage girl, and a family bathroom may need to consider elderly family members. Making your bathroom wheelchair accessible could save you thousands down the line. You may also want to accommodate a washer and dryer in the bathroom, since it’s where clothes are taken off frequently. Also consider safety and cleaning. Ensure no-one will slip and hurt themselves, and consider that many little tiles will make for many little nooks for grime to accumulate, whereas big surfaces like a sink that is integrated with the vanity counter, or a big mirror will make wiping down the surface much easier than having sinks sitting on top or an intricately designed mirror.

3 Your Style Determines The Colours and Fixtures You Choose

When looking at bathroom photos on Houzz, you’ll probably lean towards a certain style pretty soon. Are you into rustic charm, modern beach house style or a mix of styles? This will determine if you opt for whites, greys and blues or if you go for dark cabinets, black floor tiles or bronze fixtures. Specifically, you want to consider:

Tiling

Are you going to tile floors and walls? There’s so many possibilities, from your choice of tile to how they are laid. If you’re budget conscious, you may want to consider a wallpaper or paint for certain areas. A simple grey tile can make room for other elements to shine, while mosaics or a subway tile can make a great feature wall.

Lighting

Lighting doesn’t only look pretty, but can impact your bathroom experience significantly. The mirror is a special area you want to light well, so that you don’t miss any hair when shaving or can apply that perfect line to your eye.

Furniture & Fixtures

Pay attention to how colours of cabinets and floor can impact a room. You may want to consider a wooden floor for something different and pair it with simple white vanity and cabinets, or you may want to go for the steampunk look with bronze tubes and black walls. Consider what type of shower, bathtub (if any), toilet, sink and vanity you want. Maybe you have space for a generous spa with walk-in shower, or maybe you want a freestanding bath to be the feature of the room.
