Grey Bathroom in Storrington, West Sussex

Grey Bathroom in Storrington, West Sussex Contemporary grey furniture and tiling combine with natural wood accents for this sizeable en-suite in Storrington. The Brief This Storrington client had a plan to remove a dividing wall between a family bathroom and an existing en-suite to make a sizeable and luxurious new en-suite. The design idea for the resulting en-suite space was to include a walk-in shower and separate bathing area, with a layout to make the most of natural light. A modern grey theme was preferred with a softening accent colour. Design Elements Removing the dividing wall created a long space with plenty of layout options. After contemplating multiple designs, it was decided the bathing and showering areas should be at opposite ends of the room to create separation within the space. To create the modern, high-impact theme required, large format grey tiles have been utilised in harmony with a wood-effect accent tile, which feature at opposite ends of the en-suite. The furniture has been chosen to compliment the modern theme, with a curved Pelipal Cassca unit opted for in a Steel Grey Metallic finish. A matching three-door mirrored unit has provides extra storage for this client, plus it is also equipped with useful LED downlighting. Special Inclusions Plenty of additional storage has been made available through the use of built-in niches. These are useful for showering and bathing essentials, as well as a nice place to store decorative items. These niches have been equipped with small downlights to create an alluring ambience. A spacious walk-in shower has been opted for, which is equipped with a chrome enclosure from British supplier Crosswater. The enclosure combines well with chrome brassware has been used elsewhere in the room from suppliers Saneux and Vado. Project Highlight The bathing area of this en-suite is a soothing focal point of this renovation. It has been placed centrally to the feature wall, in which a built-in niche has been included with discrete downlights. Green accents, natural decorative items, and chrome brassware combines really well at this end of the room. The End Result The end result is a completely transformed en-suite bathroom, unrecognisable from the two separate rooms that existed here before. A modern theme is consistent throughout the design, which makes use of natural highlights and inventive storage areas.

If you’re looking for bathroom ideas, look no further than Houzz. Our image gallery brings you a large range of photos with inspiration for your viewing pleasure, and not only that - you can also save your ideas in ideabooks and find the professional that has done the job. When planning your bathroom design or update, start by collecting images of designs you like and take it from there. Whether you are designing your bathroom from scratch, redesigning, updating or simply decorating, you’ll be sure to find ideas for every possible scenario. And once you're ready, you can find the architect and/or builder to get the job done. But let’s start with the bathroom design basics.

How to Plan Your Bathroom Design

A good bathroom design brings together beauty and functionality. It reflects your personality in its style, colours, fittings and fixtures, but serves your needs to a tee both when you’re getting ready for work in the morning and when you want to wind down in your bathtub after a long day.

1 Collect Bathroom Ideas to Decide on Your Layout

Firstly, consider your space. Is it rectangular or are you working with a long, narrow room? This will determine how many wet walls you can accommodate, and if a bathtub can fit. For example, in a narrow room a freestanding bathtub may not work, and a one-wall layout that lines up shower, toilet and vanity on the same wall will make sense in most cases. (It’s also the most budget-friendly option in terms of plumbing). Maybe separate rooms for toilet and shower make sense? Maybe you want to work with a window above a bathtub or in the shower. You may live in an old house where you can keep some of the original character of the home, or you may be working with a small apartment space. All these considerations are vital in deciding on which layout will work best for you. Have a look at some popular ideas to get started.

2 Consider How You Use Your Bathroom

Once you’ve gathered some inspiration, have a think about who is using the room, and how they will be using it. A single guy needs a lot less storage than a teenage girl, and a family bathroom may need to consider elderly family members. Making your bathroom wheelchair accessible could save you thousands down the line. You may also want to accommodate a washer and dryer in the bathroom, since it’s where clothes are taken off frequently. Also consider safety and cleaning. Ensure no-one will slip and hurt themselves, and consider that many little tiles will make for many little nooks for grime to accumulate, whereas big surfaces like a sink that is integrated with the vanity counter, or a big mirror will make wiping down the surface much easier than having sinks sitting on top or an intricately designed mirror.

3 Your Style Determines The Colours and Fixtures You Choose

When looking at bathroom photos on Houzz, you’ll probably lean towards a certain style pretty soon. Are you into rustic charm, modern beach house style or a mix of styles? This will determine if you opt for whites, greys and blues or if you go for dark cabinets, black floor tiles or bronze fixtures. Specifically, you want to consider:

Tiling

Are you going to tile floors and walls? There’s so many possibilities, from your choice of tile to how they are laid. If you’re budget conscious, you may want to consider a wallpaper or paint for certain areas. A simple grey tile can make room for other elements to shine, while mosaics or a subway tile can make a great feature wall.

Lighting

Lighting doesn’t only look pretty, but can impact your bathroom experience significantly. The mirror is a special area you want to light well, so that you don’t miss any hair when shaving or can apply that perfect line to your eye.

Furniture & Fixtures

Pay attention to how colours of cabinets and floor can impact a room. You may want to consider a wooden floor for something different and pair it with simple white vanity and cabinets, or you may want to go for the steampunk look with bronze tubes and black walls. Consider what type of shower, bathtub (if any), toilet, sink and vanity you want. Maybe you have space for a generous spa with walk-in shower, or maybe you want a freestanding bath to be the feature of the room.
