![]() Where possible, I try to squeeze in some aged wood for texture – a wall-hung bathroom cabinet or a stool next to the bath, or the frame of a mirror or artwork. Instead of painting the walls in flat emulsion, try using matchboard panelling or a patterned bathroom wallpaper, or an uneven limewash effect, such as ‘Fresco’ finish from Pure & Original. Rather than tiling the floor, consider a waterproof, woven vinyl – I love the mustard colourway by The Unnatural Floor Company. You can do this with a hand-finished bathroom tile that has an uneven glaze or shape, such as Emery & Cie’s ‘Zelliges’ range. To avoid this, introduce a variety of textures. It is all too easy to end up with lots of hard, shiny surfaces. MAY WE SUGGEST: Design ideas for bathroom sinks and vanities Hastings-based homeware store Dyke & Dean offers a great range of affordable bathroom lighting. ‘Mast Lights’, by Davey Lighting from Original BTC, fitted above skirting level will cast light downwards, instantly creating atmosphere. It is also fun to experiment with different heights of lighting: keep spotlights to a minimum and think about adding low-level fittings that wash the floor with light. I always suggest having more than one circuit, fitting dimmers and using warm-white bulbs throughout. With bathroom lighting, careful planning is key. Lighting, texture and colour are the key points to consider when designing a bathroom, and don’t forget to punctuate the space with something that piques your imagination and lifts your mood. What’s more, the demands we put upon them, including water-friendly surfaces and bright, IP-rated lighting, can translate into a cold, unflattering atmosphere. Yet too often, it can feel out of step with the rest of a home, invested with less love and personality. As the place you start and end each day, the bathroom is at least as important as any other room in your house. My next target area is the living and dining room and I’m planning to rent a house when we decide to have it renovated.Our bathrooms need to feel both nurturing and joyful, energising us in the morning and helping us decompress in the evening. The interior designer, did not submit a design prior to the quotation because the area is small lang naman, but she said she’ll do one for the next area we want to be renovated. It’s also easy to return and exchange items and the staff are all very helpful in selecting which one to get. ![]() I also tried to order additional tiles adhesive from them and they agreed for a COD payment scheme. What I like about getting the items at All Home is that they have free delivery for orders worth P5,000 within 5km radius. It took them exactly 7 days to finish the job. I am so happy that they did a good job and they did not leave the area undone. They gave me the cheapest quotation and because they’ve been working with All Home mock-up store designs, I decided to try them. S abi ko nga ayoko na ng padalos dalos kahit gaano kaganda ang gamit mo kung di marunong yung gagawa, wala din. But before I decided to get them I asked 2 contractors around our area first. The contractor that I’ve got was also recommended by All Home. She chose this double sliding door because it’s modern looking and just perfect for our bathroom’s small space. Regarding the enclosure, the designer advice us to get one so that the floor area of the toilet will not get wet every time we take a bath or use the faucet. There’s a cheaper chrome version of this but we are thinking of the long term functionality. We also chose a stainless square rainfall shower head. This is what our bathroom looked like when it was turned-over to us by our subdivision’s management. It’s a good thing that All Home is near us because I was able to check the items personally and made some adjustments from her proposal. She then sent me the quotation of the items that they will use and what they look like. The interior designer and a crew from All Home asked for the things we want to happen and measured the area to be renovated. Plus, it’s the smallest part of our house and that we can still stay inside while they’re fixing it. ![]() Here’s the thing, I find that the bathroom is one of the area that should look nice and clean, kaya ayun ang pinauna ko. The interior designer went to our house to check the area I want to be renovated. I always wanted to have our house renovated, but because of past experiences ayoko ng magpadalos-dalos at magpagawa basta-basta. Last time, I posted that I found out that All Home has this free consultation with their interior designer as long as you’ll buy all items needed in their store.
