Looking for washroom reno inspiration and ideas

Hey all, 

 

In between other projects, wife has left it to me to design / revamp our washroom.

As you can see, it's pretty 'meh', and while we are only in there a minimal amount of our day, this is our guests primary toilet / washer and I'd like them to feel a little more comfortable. Dimensions are as follows:

1500 (Basin and Mirror Wall) x 1750 (Toilet Wall). High ceilings.

Any design inspo would go a long way because... I'm just stumped, don't really know how to make a washroom better. 

Cheers guys

Hi @Remarka6le,

 

Are you looking for purely aesthetical improvements, as the functionality of the space looks quite adequate? 

 

I'd swap that rectangular mirror out for a round one as it currently dates the bathroom. The mixer tap is also on the older side, and trends now revolve around matt black and brushed brass tapware. I'd suggest you colour coordinate the mirror frame, tapware, cabinet handles, toilet roll holder and hand towel holder

 

The only other items I'd look at are possibly updating the toilet to something more current, like a back-to-wall suit and filling the void above the toilet. You could take advantage of that area with some open shelves. If you go with black accessories, I'd recommend some lovely warm-coloured timber shelves that would offset the stark accessories nicely.

 

Let me mention experienced renovator @redbournreno to see if she has any thoughts.

Hey @MitchellMc

Don't mind building something to make things nicer, but deffs looking for pure aesthetical improvement as it's quite dated. As a minimum I'd probably look into changing the vanity as a whole, and I wouldn't mind filling that empty void next to it with something just so it isn't there.
