Comments (18)I guess I'm weird but I rather like the asymmetry. To offset it I might hang a hanging plant or a triangular piece of art. (Upside down triangle, not a right angle one). Or fill in with floating shelves of different lengths, longer lengths at top, smaller at bottom (creating a triangle). Or find a sculptural piece that has curves. Maybe something curvy/organic shaped in metal that protrudes so you could hang towels on it, or toiletry bags, or extra toilet paper. Have fun with the asymmetry, offset it with more organic shape. Or just go with it and hang a couple of paintings or a painting that is centered in the painted wall section, totally oblivious to the toilet below it. We are always trying to draw attention away from the toilet, so don't feel compelled to line everything up nice and neat with it. This would draw the eye up. I think also if you change out the shower curtain to one that is closer to the cement tile color it wouldn't be as noticeable. As it is less noticeable in the 2nd pic. But who doesn't love a nice fresh white shower curtain? Heck you could also paint the bathroom door black to match the knob. Assuming you keep this door often a lot. We always keep our bathroom doors closed....See Morebathroom dilemma! help please!
Comments (3)<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><md>It is the chimney in the middle of our house that vents the furnace. it used to vent an old oil furnace. we have already done the floor, and at this point I haven't made any decisions on how I'm decorating...I know not very helpful. I do know that I'm doing glass shelves, though... if that's helpful... everything else I'm drawing a total blank....See MoreHelp please! Small bathroom dilemma!
Comments (12)What are the dimensions of the room? A drawing showing measurements would help. Just trying to get a sense of the space and what is meant by "slight bend" in wall. You might consider painting the walls and doors to match the tile, and paint the little black tiles to match as well. If you want to lessen the contrast, you could paint the vanity a gray that complements the vanity top and tiles. Or paint the walls gray like I did in the mockup below (the gray I picked is a little off). Do you need the bulky shelf? Might be housing plumbing? As to mirror, you could have a custom cut mirror fill the wall above the vanity. A fun alternative would be to remove the tile from the walls, replace the floor and install a bold wallpaper. Go all in on maximalism... Some inspiration... This color palette might actually work with your tile......See Moreapple_pie_order
