BATHROOM PROJECT





                   ‘To give the room impact,
                   I found a console with
                   a marble top and brass
                   legs and paired it with
                   a countertop basin. Our
                   builder needed a steady
                   hand to drill through the
                   marble for the waste pipe!’

                                  “    If I could


                change anything in our

                new bathroom, it would


                be the anti-slip floor tiles.

                They are a bit awkward


                to keep clean because of


                their rough texture – they

                tend to shred our mop                        ”
