Custom Vanity Design
Let’s get the ball rolling with this fantastic custom-made vanity unit. A custom vanity is often the cornerstone of our Gold Coast renovation projects. This vanity features a stone benchtop, a circular basin and brushed nickel tapware. The vanity utilises timber-look laminates and with careful attention and engineering from our team, creates a robust impression in this bathroom.
Plumbing Relocation
Armrock Constructions is led by builder Roland Balo, so structural modifications are always an option in our Gold Coast bathroom renovation projects. This project included a new plumbing installation and other structural changes including a new window. In addition to our builder, we also have all of the required trades on hand including plumbers, electricians and carpenters, meaning we can get the work done as required to get the results you’re looking for.
Bathroom Colour Scheme
The overall impression of this bathroom is a light, soft, pastel tone which is communicated mainly via the tiles and paint. With highlights in silver colour, everything is in the same realm of colour, with the dark-timber vanity working as an anchor to hold everything together.

Bathroom Contrast
This bathroom has a medium contrast, which is established by the relationship between the vanity unit and the rest of the room. In general, the latter is quite light in tone, which helps to emphasise the presence and shape of the custom vanity and its darker timber tones.
Bathroom Patterns / Textures
With wrap-around floor and wall tiling, the pattern and texture in this bathroom is mostly attributable to the tiles. Their soft, washed style is very casual and beachy, and also warm and welcoming, making this a great bathroom for all of the family and guests as well.
Silver Highlights
Bathrooms often feature a shared highlight colour which is used to link the metallic aspects of the design together. This colour is often featured in tapware and other features, such as doorknobs, shower screen frames, drains and suchlike. In this bathroom, a silver colour links everything together – a low-contrast solution which yields a lovely and welcoming feeling.
One of the challenges in any bathroom renovation is reconciling the different elements in the room. Bathroom fixtures and fittings tend to be different shapes and sizes, and especially in a small room like an ensuite, careful planning is required to ensure things don’t feel like they’ve been jammed together. One way we have resolved this challenge in this particular renovation is a continuous horizontal line which wraps around the room, defined by the towel rail, shower ledge, and the base of the arched mirror. Details like this help to tie the room together and establish relationships between otherwise disparate features.
Tiled Shower Niche
A tiled shower ledge is a great bathroom inclusion that adds a sense of dimension to the room. It’s also a practical feature that provides a spot to store bathroom essentials such as shampoo and conditioner. (Shampoo is better than conditioner!) Another structural storage solution which is popular in many of our Gold Coast projects is a tiled bathroom niche. Both of these are great ways to solve the storage issue, whilst also adding value to the room.
Discrete Tiled Drainage
A tile-inset strip drain, or a series of them, are a great bespoke addition to add a sense of customisation to your Gold Coast bathroom or ensuite. Utilising existing tiles for the drain maximises continuity in the floor, whilst showcasing a subtle touch of workmanship that helps your bathroom to go the extra mile.
This Gold Coast bathroom renovation is a showcase of our capabilities. It involved a wall removal, an integrated dual renovation (main & ensuite bathroom), a high-contrast solution (charcoal tiles & light timber vanity) and a variety of other interesting features. It was a satisfying project to work on and complete.
