This bathroom renovation reimagines what was once two smaller, separate spaces into a single expansive retreat. By combining clever spatial planning with bold design choices, the project delivers a room that is as functional as it is luxurious. Every element has been carefully considered — from relocating plumbing to create a smarter layout, to introducing a stunning wet area with brushed gold finishes. The result is a contemporary sanctuary that balances comfort, style, and everyday practicality.
Pre-Renovation Situation
Prior to renovating, this bathroom and toilet were split into two smaller rooms, typical of many older styles of interior layouts. We collaborated with the owners to implement an expanded layout, creating a sense of space and openness.
Renovated Bathroom
By merging two smaller, confined rooms into one expansive bathroom, the design completely redefines the way the space is experienced.
The open-plan layout instantly creates a feeling of calm and spaciousness, with better natural light flow and improved circulation.
This new configuration removes the cramped, compartmentalised feel of the original rooms and replaces it with a sense of balance and harmony.
The result is not just a bathroom, but a generously sized sanctuary designed for relaxation, indulgence, and everyday comfort.
What truly elevates this bathroom from standard to exceptional is the layering of comfort-driven features. Heated flooring provides warmth underfoot, while integrated lighting enhances both ambience and practicality.
Thoughtful zoning separates functional areas from indulgent ones, creating a space that feels balanced and inviting. These details transform the bathroom into more than just a place to get ready — it becomes a daily retreat, a private spa-like escape where luxury meets everyday living.
Bathroom Vanity
The finishing touches are what set this bathroom apart, with brushed gold fixtures adding a subtle but unmistakable sense of luxury. Unlike high-shine finishes, brushed gold offers a warm, satin-like glow that feels both modern and timeless. From the tapware to the shower fittings, every detail is elevated with a consistent metallic accent that pairs effortlessly with stone, marble, or textured tiles. This elegant touch transforms everyday rituals into moments of indulgence, making the bathroom not only practical but truly beautiful.
Modern, Luxurious Bathtub Upgrade
One of the most impactful elements of this renovation is the decision to relocate all plumbing points. Rather than working around existing limitations, this approach allows for a totally bespoke floor plan where the bath, shower, vanity, and toilet are positioned with purpose. The reconfiguration ensures that the most-used fixtures are placed conveniently, while aesthetic lines remain uncluttered. This thoughtful plumbing strategy not only enhances functionality but also enables striking design choices that would not have been possible within the old layout.
Upgraded Wet Area
The centerpiece of the new design is the combined wet area that accommodates both the shower and freestanding bath within one thoughtfully designed zone. This approach not only maximizes space but also creates a stunning feature that feels inspired by boutique hotels and luxury spas.
Framed with sleek glass panels or left open for a minimalist look, the wet area ensures efficient drainage while keeping the rest of the bathroom perfectly dry. It’s an immersive experience that invites relaxation, whether you’re enjoying a quick shower or a long, indulgent soak.
