Scale Q: Toilet to vanity height
Comments (21)Glad you're all set Andrea! I would like to see pix if you're doing more than just new toilet. Looks like vanity is done, were you thinking of putting shelf over toilet (picture has someone holding some sort of countertop there?)? Renee - now I'm conflicted again! I really prefer 32" but it's just more work to block up the washstand 3" (and get the legs to look right, proportionally and stain), casters would be easy. And I'm still struggling with scale - in such a small (3' x 6'4") room, the toilet tank at 29.5, what would be best option for washstand? Vessel sink is out, I already have the perfect drop-in sink (bow front matches curve of washstand) and faucet....See Morebathroom makes me feel small
Comments (5)A mirror that extends down to just above the backsplash would take care of that, wouldn't it? You could insert a medicine cabinet in the shallow wall to the right of the mirror. You can reduce the scale of the mirrored wall by having an oval or rectangular mirror on the wall behind the sink, with a wall mounted sconce on each side of the mirror. The side lighting might be more flattering than the above-the-mirror lighting you have now....See MoreBathroom renewel
Comments (36)Hi, For the mirror part I was not thinking of covering the mirror, only if I had another bigger mirror that filled the whole background space : 1m x 1,4m I was thinking of framing the mirror: - wood - glass, pvc and put a sticker print? Which color or pattern? Any idea. Or just fill in the cracks? Under the sink would take out the baskets and buy something like this : My dirty clothes bin and a bit of my Mat on the bottom left: As the floor Mat, the clothes bin is Brown and I have 4 wicker baskets plus 2 smaller ones. The idea would be to have a shelve rack like this one that is in the kitchen or one in wood above the bidet and put Things in the baskets : ps: ignore other objects, I could put 2 big baskets In each shelves, only one, etc What do you think? I saw these shower curtains too today : For the under sink curtain should I use the same color as the shower one? Please help :)...See More"Timeless" bathroom for Spanish Mediterranean style home
Comments (47)You’re actually approaching this the right way. In a Spanish Mediterranean home, “timeless” comes down to restraint and material selection, not trying to do too much. Out of the options you shared, the zellige direction is the strongest fit. It brings subtle variation and texture that naturally works with that style without feeling forced. Stick with a soft white or cream and keep the layout simple. Let the material carry the look. One thing to watch out for, Carrara basketweave on the floor can start to feel more East Coast traditional than Mediterranean. It’s clean, but not always the best match for the architecture. A softer stone look or something with a bit of warmth usually blends better. Your star and cross idea can work, but it leans more decorative. That’s where things tend to date faster unless everything else is extremely toned down. Subway tile is the safest option, but also the easiest to end up looking builder-grade if there’s no texture or variation. You’re making a smart move using wallpaper for personality. That gives you flexibility without locking the whole space into a specific look long term. In most bathroom remodels like this, especially in older homes, what really makes it work is how everything ties together. Tile, vanity, lighting, all of it needs to feel like it belongs in the same story. Projects like this usually come down to the details and how far you’re going with finishes, which can shift cost and timeline more than people expect. If you want, I’m happy to look at the full setup and help you dial it in so it feels cohesive and not overdone....See More- 2 years agolast modified: 2 years ago
