Advice on a 70s style bathroom
Comments (21)So if I suggested the following could you tell me if this is going to look right. Floor tiles = keep Wall tiles = paint or replace to white? Cedar walls = keep , sand and re oil Cedar beams above shower and bath = ? Vanity = replace to a white unit with a stone/ granite top in a light colour ? Splash back behind vanity = glass white or blue tiles? Mirror = replace with a much larger one , possibly even one stretching the whole width of the wall Shower curtains = not sure ? Would it be better to have frameless glass with translucent glass between shower and bathtub? Bathtub and shower tub = paint white ? Lighting= lots of LED spots Towel rails etc = new Chrome/SS Thank you for any suggestions...See MoreHelp choosing between layouts for master bathroom and walk-in!
Comments (3)without accurate dimensions my suggestion offers twin bathrooms with a central dressing area and biw accessible from the bedroom ...alternatively option 2 could have the storage swopped to the bathroom side to create a small entry hall to separate the wiw from the bathroom and, instead of a wall of glass, panels of horizontal or vertical glass and glass doors could enhance lighting and, based on my guestimated measurements, the twin bathrooms design offers much more than the required 16' of full height storage wall as well as a more comfortably sized dressing area...See MoreFresh eyes needed on my master bathroom plans
Comments (20)yazrav wanted the ens next to the central courtyard with outdoor shower for access to the hot tub for communal use, swopping the kitchen and pantry was to create more space for the bigger island for family crowds, add some privacy to the courtyard and reduce the south western glass...the dining table in my plan is 3m long and the extra small room off the master suite makes an ideal nursery with space for biw, large cot, nursing chair and change table and in the big study i've added a wall to wall 75m deep desk and overhead wall to wall shelves with space under the desk for drawers, storing bean bags and there's office chairs and full height wall to wall bookshelves at the other end...See More70's floor plan, need to move master bedroom!
Comments (12)Hi Lucy, Typical situation here. A couple of things, without going into full depth you need to distinguish and separate (a) project design from (b) project construction...... Firstly, these types of projects can be challenging/involved on a number of levels. But first things first, Firstly, you need a design solution. At a glance you seem to have plenty of existing space, BUT reconfiguration of internal spaces can translate into higher than anticipated cost. It comes down to your specific family needs and ultimately your budget. You need to define/clarify your specific requirements or work with a design professional who can help you establish the detail required in order to resolve a design solution for you. Invariably it comes down to money and balancing out your specific needs in context to ensure the solution is developed to budget. We offer services that deal with & manage this critical front end stage of a project. Secondly, issue with trades and getting people to come and quote etc.....very often, the issue is not that they don't want to do the job, BUT the job actually is not clearly defined or is confusing and may appear too small to bother. However, when you have a properly and professionally documented and defined project on paper then it is actually relatively straight forward to find a reputable builder who will quote the project properly. There are numerous operators setup for various scaled and type of project and sure it's about finding the right one and it's horses for courses. But first things first, without a clear plan of attack you'll be going around in circles getting nowhere - my guess is that you've been trying to work it out yourself and tried to speak to builder or random trades, before actually focusing on the most important aspect of a project, which is the design. You can't expect to pull those guys in and ask them "what do you reckon?" "can we do this" "how much will it cost to...".etc......builders and trades form the "back end"of the projects, they are not "designers" however people seem to often pull them in first, when rather they should be discussing the yet to be defined project with either a designer or an architect. I hope this brief comment helps. If you are interested in further professional assistance and comments please don't hesitate to contact me directly for further information. We can provide concise front end services that are structured to address exactly this type of situation and provide clarity and options for your project that are properly costed in context. You get this stuff sorted/freed up, you'll be able to progress forward efficiently with the process. Cheers PD :)...See More
