It's been fun to see the space come together - one layer at a time, starting from the bare bones.
Wall tiles
For the shower and lower section of the wall we chose matt white square tiles with a simple white grouting (I felt this would give a cleaner, less fussy look in such a small space).
Wall mounted loo and taps
I love a wall hung loo (specifically the WC Kube X from GSI Ceramica) they look so sleek and also help to contribute to an airier feel in a small space. I was also keen to install wall mounted taps (I selected the Basin Mixer CRITV257 from series Tricolore Verde by CRISTINA Rubinetterie). However, in order to achieve this we needed to build out a section of the wall by 15 cm (wide enough to fit a Gerberit cistern). I was a little nervous as it's already a narrow bathroom - but actually, I'm thrilled with the result. The shelf has turned out to be a real bonus! Bathroom paint colour
Wall mounted sink and cabinet
Here's a close up of the sleek, timeless
Kube X washbasin (60 x 47) in matt white. I'm so happy with it as well as the Prisma Unit
cabinet (also from GSI Ceramica) - it's perfect for storage, and since the entire unit is mounted, it gives the illusion of space. Taps and shower
Shower door
We still need to add a glass wall (80 cm wide) between the shower and sink. However, I haven't decided if we also need a shower door (70 cm wide) across the front, what do you think?
Floor tiles and details
And finally - the stone floor. I sourced the Tumbled Turtle tiles from Swedish brand Stiltje (I love the owner Pamela; she has incredible taste!). We really splurged on these and once the floor had been laid, there were a few tiles leftover which we used for the ledge above the sink and a corner shelf in the shower. I hope you like what we've done so far! I'm so excited the bathroom is nearly finished. We're on the home straight!
The next step is to add:
1. A shower wall and potentially a shower door
2. A privacy film inside the garden glass door (or should we go for a blind?)
3. A loo roll holder - any thoughts on where this should go?
4. Hooks for towels, robes, swimwear etc.
5. All our toiletries!
I'd love to hear your two pennies worth!
Hopefully it will all be finished in the next few weeks - I'm so looking forward to sharing the final reveal once everything is in place!
