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.

A contemporary upgrade of a family bathroom and laundry, enhancing functionality and aesthetics while maintaining a classic feel, featuring rich timber accents and green tiles for a harmonious flow and improved storage solutions.

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.

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.⠀
⠀
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 ⠀

“During 2009/2010 it was decided that the existing Ronald McDonald House in Wellington needed to be demolished and a brand new facility built. The Board was looking at a $15 million project and we needed to make this 34 bedroom House into a very special home!As a Trust Board Member of Ronald McDonald House Wellington and on the Interior Design Team for the new build, the CEO Lesley Slieker and I wished to engage a Wellington based Interior Designer to lead us through the project. In December 2011, we procured the services of a newly qualified Frances Fraser. We knew instantly that Frances was the one to join the two of us on this momentous journey, and what would be a massive undertaking. Frances came from a graphic design background and had recently graduated with a Graduate Diploma in Design with Distinction from Massey University in Wellington. She came to us with a number of valuable contacts and lots of innovative ideas!! Frances listened to the significant brief for the project and began to interpret this into design schemes and ultimately reality for us. Frances was always a few steps ahead of us and always come to our meetings well prepared and ‘creative juices’ flowing. Frances has the ability to not only deliver professional concepts through to reality but work effectively in a team so that all our strengths could be capitalised on. Frances kept all our interior design subcontractors and suppliers well supported, keeping them in the loop of our deadlines and making sure they had everything they needed to complete their work. Maintaining professional and frequent communication allowed us to be kept up to date with the progress and assured that all targets were met. We thoroughly enjoyed working with Frances and that was a wonderful bonus. The new Ronald McDonald House was a challenging but hugely rewarding project of significance for hundreds of future families and Wellington as a city, we needed to get it right! I would have no hesitation in recommending Frances Fraser for Interior Design work big or small – residential or commercial. Personally, I wish her every success as she embarks on her next journey and designing and creating wonderful spaces for her clients.”
