The homeowners needed a modern update to their original ’80s bathroom, so they approached Vance Living with a clear brief. They were after a simple yet highly functional bathroom suitable for their children and their guests alike. The space needed to be practical, with a modern yet timeless design.

The layout the design and build team ultimately settled on is fully functional, yet very aesthetically appealing too. The custom vanity and mirror cabinetry, open shelving and the shower niches provide an abundance of storage solutions. The fully tiled walls and floors create interest, while facilitating easy cleaning. The placement of the wall tiles was a strategic choice; while they command attention, they also highlight the quality tapware as a feature. The custom clear shower screen was built into a niche, creating the illusion of a larger space.

The room gets plenty of natural light thanks to the floor-to-ceiling window by the bath – which incidentally also facilitates a relaxing ambience for when the bath is in use. As it’s finished with fluted glass, it allows for a private and intimate space.

Modern, tranquil and brimming with functionality, this bathroom is a study in fit-for-purpose yet visually appealing design.

“The homeowners had grown tired of their grungy old ensuite, its outdated colours and impractical nature, so they requested a bathroom space that is modern, luxurious and functional, which also complements the rest of the home. With this in mind, light, large-format tiles were chosen for the majority of the ensuite to create the illusion of space, while darker feature tiles were placed in the shower area to create an element of interest. Black tapware and accessories were chosen to increase the ensuite’s aesthetic appeal, and the space was designed carefully to accommodate a large shower, wall-hung vanity and plenty of storage. An illusion of depth was created by installing the new larger window on the outer leaf of the exterior wall. The single black-frame panel is simple yet adds a touch of elegance to the space and can be opened for air flow. A walk-in robe was also built next to the ensuite as a final touch, to maximise the previously unused space.”
