Designed by: E J Building
Photography by: Blade Scenes
From the designer:
Owners requests:
- A bath is to be removed from the smaller family bathroom and added to the large ensuite.
- A large shower that was still going to be in proportion to the ensuite (and not oversized).
What we achieved
- A double vanity and mirror cabinets were added to create a his and hers-type feel for the ensuite.
- A free-standing corner bath was selected so it wouldn’t take up too much space in the ensuite.
- Feature tiles were used that were a similar colour to the main tiles – thus creating a subtle feature using texture rather than introducing colour.
- An ornament/wine shelf was added to the bath.
Issues addressed
- The majority of the bathroom floor was rotten and had to be replaced.
