The bath features an irregular pattern, created in shades of red, grey and pastel pink, contrasting with the mint-green tone of the surrounding walls. Mosaic tiles were chosen for the bathroom of this renovated home in Perth, designed by Design Theory, to reference the property’s mid-century heritage. With all those splashes and high humidity levels, you might be worried about its durability. It’s often cheaper and less labor-intensive than tiling, plus gives you plenty of visual options. If you have an L-shaped bathroom or just plenty of available space, a walk-in shower can provide a more functional and accessible alternative.

Create the geometric shapes with the masking tape and then paint in between the lines. Here, a distressed metal cistern makes a statement out of the toilet. This, coupled with a copper towel rail can give your pretty pastel restroom an edgy touch. This slip-resistant concrete-effect, bathroom flooring idea is actually vinyl, though, with its mottled light to medium grey patches, we had to see it up close for ourselves. So if you’re going for the same look, get your hands on the Roma 581 Navarra vinyl. We love this Vivido pattern which has a semi-gloss finish and is resistant against yellowing caused by abrasive household cleaning detergents.
Square Tiles
Typical bathroom drain plumbing is usually PVC pipe that’s 1.5 inches or sometimes 1.25 inches in diameter. This type of drain pipe can clog easily, especially if you have several family members using the same shower and/or bath. Installing drain pipe that’s 2 inches in diameter costs roughly the same, and it will dramatically improve the quality of drainage in your bathroom. You’ll need enough cabinets, drawers, and shelving to comfortably fit all your towels, makeup, and hair products. Make sure your bathroom’s storage will function for your day-to-day life. You wouldn’t want to clutter your countertops, diminishing the look of your beautiful new bathroom.
