Eastbourne Green Bathroom
The objective for this family bathroom and laundry upgrade was to increase functionality and enhance the aesthetics whilst maintaining a classic feel throughout the home. Both spaces follow a modern approach in regards to attention to colour, layout, tiles and minimal fixtures and fittings.
Structurally separating the laundry and the bathroom to become two individual spaces was an essential requirement from the client, in doing so helped to visually tidy up the spaces and improve the flow of both areas.
There is now more storage, the space feels bigger, flows better and the contrast between the rich timber grain and green feature tiles makes for a very special family bathroom. The timber ledge is a feature which adds an extra layer of storage and utilises the length of the wall with both function and display. Crisp, refined edges are a feature and are softened by curves in the timber vanity unit.⠀
In the laundry there is plenty of bench space, a sweet little strip of green splash-back tile and floor tile for continuity with the bathroom next door and simple, closed away storage leaving the room uncluttered and orderly.
Precision and accuracy are vital when working with a small tile to ensure the grout lines are thoughtfully planned — a small mistake is all the more noticeable. Crisp, refined edges are a feature and are softened by curves in the timber vanity unit.⠀
With a second toilet in the house it was an easy choice to remove a wall and integrate the WC within the main family bathroom. ⠀
⠀
The feeling of space is further enhanced by introducing the neutral floor tile with a misty speckle to balance the fullness of the green feature tile which extends along the bath cradle. ⠀
⠀
Both tiles feel special because of how they have been used proportionately with each other. ⠀
⠀
Small changes make a world of difference!⠀
Built in storage is visually sleek, elegant and sometimes unexpected (there's even a leg shaver's nook at shin height!) whilst being hugely useful at the same time. ⠀
As this bathroom detail shows, a ledge doesn't haven't to be wide to be useful — this 150mm one perfectly fits the client's gorgeous piece of Crown Lynn. The timber effectively ties in with the other accents of the bathroom, visually connects the full width of the room and adds a special detail.

Originally there was a second entry via the bathroom which has now been closed off to improve the use of space and intentionally separate the two rooms. ⠀
Stainless steel benches. This material is great for high use spaces such as laundries. They are practical, durable, long-lasting and an integrated sink is a breeze to wipe down.⠀
⠀
The swivel tap with plenty of height is ideal for laundries, allowing for large items to be placed in the sink e.g. filling buckets, soaking things ⠀
