Is there much natural lighting in the bathroom? I would be templated to go with a full-height mirror (i.e. to the ceiling) in order to maximise light, although it would be a shame to cover up the full height tiles which you have paid for. Is there anything about your current bathroom mirror that you particularly like or dislike? Do you find that you fight for mirror space with your partner, in which case, two separate, small mirrors may not be ideal.

We are doing a new kitchen with antique white shaker cupboards & drawers and I'm thinking a painted, pressed metal splashback behind a free standing 90cm heritage style electric cooker and the subway tiles elsewhere. We are doing an oiled natural shaped huon pine slab for the main benchtop.

Hi there, I think it's a great idea to introduce some feature lighting here. The chairs are making quite a statement against all the white and it would be lovely to balance that a little with lighting. As you have a lot of white and also rectilinear shapes, I'd lean towards organic shapes and materials for your lights. You could consider having more than one pendant light and create either a cluster, a row of 3, or else a long light. Here's some ideas.
