Tropical Feature & Fitted Suite

#32

A bathroom renovation that injects personality into the space while maximizing utility. The focal point is a vibrant feature wall above the bath, tiled with a large-scale tropical leaf print, which contrasts sharply with the clean white horizontal tiling on the remaining walls. A key requirement for this project was storage; I installed a custom fitted run of dark blue cabinetry, including a floor-to-ceiling unit that conceals the WC cistern and provides extensive cupboard space. To ensure the bath area remained versatile, I fitted a multi-fold glass screen that retracts fully to open up the room. As the sole contractor, I managed the plumbing, tiling, and precise joinery work required for the fitted furniture.
