this is mine a bit wider than yours..1750mm by 2000mmso wall with window is 2000mm

vanity is wall hung and is 600mm

shower is walk in 900mm by 1100mm and I have a cavity sliding door

since you don't need a bath or WC..you have plenty of room..

make it a walk in shower..where it is so 890mm by 1200mm in length..pop your vanity at the end of it..

you can have a 750mm vanity since you only really got 810mm left after taking into account for your door..too narrow for a shower that end ..

Agree with oskuee it'd be wise to have a second toilet. You may be able to place it discreetly behind a nib wall.

Hi, i would recommend a larger vanity and a wider shower like in a previous bathroom renovation we have done before below. Good luck!

Hi Captains,

Couple of ideas for you...

From the pic I can see you don't face the mirror when using the basin. Your plumbing locations are relatively simple to work with also.

You can add space and value with a simple layout.

I would remove the basin and mirror from this location altogether and have a frameless glass shower (with door) across the entire end of the bathroom. This will give you a massive 1600mm x 1000mm shower and by using frameless glass you don't shorten the visual aspect.

I would move the shower taps over to the new door location at the existing mirror wall on the left (for easy access when turning them on), then either have a shower rail or overhead (or both) at the other end depending on your likes and budget.

Down the entire right hand side of the bathroom up to the shower I would build a vanity with two basins, and a mirror the same length as the vanity and approx 900mm high. The mirror will give both function and reflect the other wall making the space seem larger.

Not sure what decor you have in mind but I often use a 300 x 600 white vitrified tile laid on the horizontal in a brick bond pattern to full height all round. Can be bought between $27 -$30m2 so you can spend up big on the floor tile which is only a couple of metres.

You can fit more in but the above will look pretty big.

Good Luck!

We had the exact 1935's style bathroom with the unreal terrazzo as you. This was our first design and later shifted the toilet between the shower and basin. Using a glass shower screen as the space you have it will make it more open. In the end we knocked out a wall and made it bigger but this is a good starter for you.

Save the pink bathroom! The original floor and the pink bath are beautiful! And obviously appropriate to the era of your house. http://savethepinkbathrooms.com/

To give you a more spacious feel, have the door replaced with a cavity sliding door - it gives you an amazing amount of extra space, we did it in our bathroom

I would replace the vanity, which is obviously not original, with a custom laminate vanity with cupboards underneath in pink (top) and grey (cupboard doors/sides) or even a boomerang pattern for the top (http://retrospaces.com.au/retro/images/laminates/Renovation/FirstLadyPink.jpg) have a skilled tiler repair any areas that need repairing and have the tiles professionally cleaned and re-grouted and re-do all of the silicone, Then replace all the tapwear with new chrome taps but in an appropriate style (like these for example http://www.caroma.com.au/bathrooms/taps/retro/retro-wall-top-assemblies) and a new glass shower screen.

A really fresh coat of white paint (use the bathroom product), better lighting - put a light in above the mirror (http://www.ikea.com/au/en/catalog/products/00255303/) and a fan/heater/light in front of the vanity exactly above where you'll stand when you get out of the shower.

If the mirror isn't in good shape (or it may be mirror doors on a cabinet? I can't tell) then think about replacing the mirror too.

You'll save a heap of money over completely re-doing the bathroom and importantly you'll be in keeping with (and preserving) the midcentury design of your home.

My only addition to Two's Company and Blender Design is #1; plan for the shower mixer to be installed on the left side of the bathroom so you can adjust the temperature before getting on there! and #2 tile the window surround as well. I would choose a larger vanity with decent storage over the second toilet.

Everyone has given such great advice already! Couldn't agree more with the suggestions of having a wider walk in shower, and using glass shower screens.

We've included some examples below - hopefully these will inspire you some :)

Hey Captain,

Looks like a pretty tight space. Below is an image of a similar bathroom renovation we did for a client in Melbourne. (apols for the photo quality)

You'll see it tucks the bath behind the walk in shower so you can still have one for kids or resale value. Huge space saving layout.

All the best Richard@themakeovergroup

Well done!! that is the perfect solution to for your needs and budget. Nice fresh classic colour scheme will be easy to jazz up with towels and your shampoos etc to add pops of colour and texture ;-)
