Bathroom inspiration

David Woolley

Renovations at my new old house having ground to a shuddering halt for more than a year are once more on the horizon. We desperately need an upstairs bathroom. It is a long trudge to our one and only bathroom waaaay down the back of the house at two in the morning. I need, I want a new bathroom close at hand. Now is the time to start gathering inspiration and doodling plans and looking for fixtures and fittings and finishes. My house was built in the 1860s so I'm leaning towards a more traditional look but with a touch of boho or maybe a dash of modern minimalism or ... well I'll know what I want when I see it. I would love a tub for soaking and an open shower. A wet room? A modern basin on an old table? What colour? All gleaming white? A hint of dark drama? Warm wood? Here are a few images I have tucked away in my inspiration files.

Indoor/outdoor

This bedroom suite created by Minosa Design is out of this world. It's a space so beautiful that if I saw it in person I'd have to have a seat in case I passed out. This takes indoor/outdoor living to the extreme. This home is perched and cantilevering off a hill in the prestigious suburb of Dover Heights in Sydney’s East. It sits on the cliff face with 2 levels above ground and four levels down. The Brief: To create a resort style ensuite retreat, that incorporated the natural beauty of the cliff face behind and had views to the beautiful Bondi ahead.  It was to be cutting edge in its design, it had to defy convention, be private and fit in with the sharp architectural style.  It was decided from this special design process that the entire space needed to be thought about as one whole floor, rather than one room. With no dividing internal walls to obstruct views it was the only way the special design could be resolved without difficulty or any further exceptions.
