en-suite bathroom in kent...
the
client wanted
to keep the budget down by keeping the existing wall tiles which meant
that the fixtures and fittings needed to remain in their existing positions.
the
unusual border tiles were therefore our starting point for the colour
scheme and so we gave the room a more contemporary
feel by using a good quality blue/black slate on the floor combined
with a pale grout in order to add interest to the large floor area.
we
replaced the existing venetian blinds with shutters which were easier
to operate on such a large scale and replaced the small shower cubicle
with a large walk-in shower and the existing built-in bath with a large
free standing roll top bath.
a
local carpenter constructed a small painted cupboard with solid oak
top to our specification to create storage for towels, etc, and a matching
solid oak mirror for above the basin.
