Seeking feedback on small ensuite design
Comments (11)Small bathrooms are the hardest to design as there is so much detail that you need to take into consideration. When I work with a small bathroom I draw everything to scale at 1:20 detail to ensure that things like power points, light switches, towel rails, toilet roll holders and door swings for showers and cupboards have all been considered. Consider concealed wall cisterns, floating vanities, big mirrors, eye-height storage, ventilation and good lighting for make-up to make the most of your small bathroom. The selection of your vanity basin size and the style of your cistern and pan will affect what you can squeeze in. The success of any small bathroom is not just in the layout, but the thought that has gone into the details, and the space required to use it comfortably....See Morebathroom tiles - textured or plain white tile?
Comments (14)Tile selection can have a big impact on the cost of your bathroom reno. The cost of the tiles per sqm is one thing, but did you know that most tilers charge different rates for the "Type" of tile laid large format and or vitrified tiles will cost more to install These are a few hard and fast rules we give our clients when they are selecting tiles for a bathroom renovation 1 - opt for darker tiles and darker grout for the floor - as a wet area light coloured tiles on the ground are harder to keep clean 2 - If you are opting for a feature tile - let it be the hero. That means make the rest of the tiles plain - large format subway tiles give you enough texture without detracting from the feature 3 - always opt for square tiles on the ground - trying to get the correct falls using rectangular tiles will mean you will have extra cuts and the floor will look a mess. The second reason we opt for square format for the floor is because of subway tiles You see, back when everyone was opting for square tiles on walls, it was easy to install square on the floor and get all the grout lines to match. Now most people are opting for subway tiles, you can never get all the grout lines to match, therefore installing square means you dont have to match grout lines as they are different format. If you are installing your subway tiles vertically, then there is a chance you will still be able to get all grout lines to match if you have selected the same sized square format tile hope this makes sense I have added a link to a blog that explains more about tile selection...See MoreBathroom with Laundry Layout Help
Comments (16)Hi James, I've got two configurations for you: The first thing to say is YOU NEED an air lock between bathroom and kitchen. Doing anything to this weight supporting wall between kitchen and this room is ok with engineering and steel! Plan A would work if the loo is in that exact place and hopefully the two doors will stop the dining/loo conversations. I think I prefer Plan B. Yes it is a shower only but a 1200 x 900 and this plan has hinge doors which are cheaper, although for the kitchen/laundry you could use a CSD. They are out of the way when you want it open. I like that both plans have heaps of storage options: I would suggest a dirty linen basket under trough (which could double as another vanity) No way the kids can miss putting the dead sox in the right place! Under bench washing machine frees the bench for sorting, folding, cat bed! under the bench can be dog bed, gardening stuff, sports equipment, etc, Then over head cupboards maybe 400 deep and 2100 long from 1400 above floor to ceiling (don't know what that is) with a rail under it to finish drying or airing clothes. The cupboard in either plan can be for linen, Chrissy tree, Hide and seek children, pantry or all of the above! And of course the vanity can have drawers/doors below bench.In plan B you could put a mirrored shaving cabinet into the wall, or Plan A would need to be proud of the wall because of the cavity sliding door. I would love to see you use clear glass in both windows as the outlook onto the garden becomes the feature and of course the laundry can have a full length view. I commend these plans to you and wish you my best service always. If you have questions or would like elevations, please do not hesitate to call. And may I suggest you pop a review on my profile here on Houzz so I can help others with their plans too. Regards Margot...See MorePlans almost there... but bathroom layout?
Comments (63)I don’t think that you achieving your goals of a smart use of spaces. If designing for wheelchair access, the bathrooms are not big enough. There is a very good standard on space requirement for wheelchairs. it is gold level of https://dfat.gov.au/about-us/publications/Documents/accessibility-design-guide.pdf Are you working with an architect? Wheelchair access is tricking as one has to think in navigating in a full circle spin. Doorways need to be 900-1000. Bathrooms need to be wet rooms rather than the conventional. There are some great architects in the Wide Bay Area, who will design function over form and at a manageable cost. It may be worthwhile investigating....See Moresiriuskey
