Help choosing vanity top and tile colors in bathroom
Comments (10)Well, I'd say you can easily recreate it. I think your inspiration picture bath has porcelain tiles..there is plenty of choice in the stores nowadays. If you pick white, or white and gray(like in certain marble or quartz that mimics it) countertop for the vanity, and do light gray porcelain tiles for example..you can go with bigger tiles for a modern look, or with smaller, for more traditional one. Porcelain tiles often also have texture that creates more friction-important in a place that gets wet. White and black or white and gray floor will look wonderful too, but probably a bit harder to keep clean. You can do this "chess board" look, or hex mosaics, or basketweave-I think it might look very cool in your house. But if you prefer one color on the floor-it will work perfectly well too. I'm saying "gray" because in my opinion it will play with a color of the vanity very nicely; I love this juxtaposition, but it can be anything really. What is the color of your hardwood floors? PS I don't think a white vanity is safer than any other vanity..:) It really depends on your preference, and on the house itself. But I must say-if you really love white, generally speaking, your choice immediately expands. I love colors-when it comes to materials, it gets trickier and more expensive. White and black or white and gray, or white and blue-that's where you have a sea of choices. Without overpaying. It is just so classic, and it's everywhere, and you can play with it to no end....See MorePlease help me choose a bathroom floor tile: marble? mosaic? (pics)
Comments (53)Dottie - I could not have done this without an educated designer - it's not just about the design choices although I would never have come up with design choices as my brain isn't hardwired in those kinds of visually imaginative ways. I can appreciate things but I don't know how to pull them together and I wouldn't have the ability to figure out where to even start in terms of the sea of vendors. I am good about researching appliances and functions but get lost in the sea of visual possibilities :-) And I can't even imagine dealing with codes and such since Los Angeles is code crazy - I wanted to move some floor electrical outlets up a bit from the floor as I found it difficult to reach them when I had some hip issues so I was thinking about for the future - I was told that if I move a plug, the whole thing has to be rewired back to the panel box. And the darn kitchen sink has to be approved by the UL LOL - who would think a kitchen sink could be dangerous....See MoreHelp! me choose floor tile for tiny bathroom & kitchen
Comments (7)sorry, the wood floor in the pic is not the flooring in the condo… it is currently ancient berber carpet, soon to be replaced with revwood laminate. i love tile for bathrooms & kitchen, it’s a Raised floor for the kitchen which makes it more like a separate room. the tiles are peel & stick linoleum there. The tiny bathroom already has a glass shower; I’d love to rip it all out, but unfortunately labor cost in the mountains of CO are astronomical… so budget will only cover flooring at this time. Do you think the 12x24 tile is too big for these small spaces?...See MoreNeed help with choosing bathroom tiles
Comments (3)I think either plank goes with your shower tile. I prefer the slightly darker one with the less pronounced grain effect. Enjoy your new room!...See MoreMelissa Guinness
