Moody Grey Bathroom with an Extensive Design Process
Project Finish Date
October 2024
Not your Typical Design Process
This bathroom renovation involved an extensive design process compared to our other bathroom renovations. Usually our designers go through a design process with our clients to understand their style, any adjustments for added functionality, they show them similar past projects and discuss fittings to create complementary 3D designs that are given to them with a fixed quote in their proposal.
Why an Extensive design process?
This however was a larger space and our clients wanted to reconfigure the space, add additional elements and were going for a dark moody theme in shades of grey.
We didn’t want to space to look too dingy or closed in so Dorothy decided to create visual video walk through with our clients Jennifer and Steve to really visualise what that bathroom would feel like. Here you can see the visual video that Dorothy provided to her clients:
Reason to Renovate and Design Brief
The reason our clients wanted to renovate was simple, it was a 1990s home in a dated style. Steve and Jennifer never used the bathtub before as it was cracked and they suspected it was leaking. They wanted to renovate the bathroom as a space that was contemporary, functional and a space that they both can use comfortably.
