The goal: a relaxing zen bathroom that was easy to clean and also good for resale. The family recently renovated our bathroom to fix leaking showers. The labour alone wasn’t cheap, so we wanted to a bathroom we loved. Here’s what we chose.

Bathroom Fixtures
Crisp white bathroom fixtures with clean lines for a fresh feel and easy cleaning. Baths, toilets and vanities.
The back to wall design creates a clean minimalist look and minimises the nooks and crannies that need cleaning.
Sanceramica Straight Ultra Quiet Flush™ Rimless Toilet Suite with Geberit ...

Ledin Havana 750mm Ensuite Drawer Unit Wall Hung Vanity
Clean and simple, with no frames. We put a power point inside ours to keep it out of sight.
Jane Full Gloss 750mm Mirrored Shaving Cabinet
I love the clean lines of this bath. It fits in the corner maximising space in the bathroom and minimising the number of surfaces that need cleaning.
Studio 1 Florence 1600mm Right Hand Corner Bath - Gloss White
Bathroom Tapware
Chrome bathroom tapwear with circular plates for a consistent look and feel without harsh lines.
A bath spout that swivels out of the way - genius!
Height adjustable so the tallest person doesn’t have to crane their neck to wash their hair and the shorts person can shower without getting their hair wet.
Rail Showers

Bathroom Accessories
Ours is fitted so the roll doesn’t come off when you tear the toilet paper, unlike the one in a restaurant I visited last week.
Phoenix Vivid Slimline Toilet Roll Holder - Chrome
We spaced our two far enough apart that the towels don’t overlap when on them.
Phoenix Radii 800mm Round Plate Single Towel Rail
The lines on the IXL Tastic Illuminator are so smooth it loojs at home on the ceiling. The warm/cold light hues are accurate, but I really don’t know what you would use them for.
IXL Tastic Luminate Dual 3-in-1 Bathroom Heater Light & Fan - White
This soap caddy blends seamlessly with a chrome shower raid and looks like it is part of the fixtures. A great way to keep everything off the floor, without adding clutter to the walls.

Bathroom Tiles
Simple, sophisticated tiles that don’t show the dirt.
These tiles have a Matt finish and do show water marks. I like the slightly rustic feel, but it’s not for everyone.

Blending from white to grey allowed all shades of white to work with these tiles.
Palace Grey Gloss Wall Tile 300x600
Paint

We did the walls in “Pensive” grey to blend with the tiles.
