3. Ellen Thomas, interior designer at Smarter Bathrooms+Perfect pairing: Natural timber and a concrete tile.There’s something about the flecks in concrete and the smooth grain of timber that is so harmonious and versatile. It’s a pairing that works in many different shades and bathroom styles. But it’s particularly well-suited to contemporary bathrooms and those with an industrial, mid-century modern, coastal or Scandinavian style.

3. Tight budget? Stuck for a design idea? Go big!This is one of my favourite tricks. Sometimes you can’t afford the Rolls-Royce of every element in your space. But if you can distract from your more economical, practical design decisions with a wow feature, you can save yourself thousands in upgrading everything unnecessarily. Oversize handles, for example, can add a touch of drama and interest to an otherwise plain bathroom. Have you got a high bathroom ceiling? Find the biggest pendant light your electrician can lift and fill the bathroom with an object so demanding of attention that it develops a personality of its own. You’ll find it gives your bathroom a real designer edge and detracts from the modest elements in the space.
