Understated Glamour And Identifiable Quality:
Current economic times demand a little restraint and this is reflected in the latest in bathroom design. Belinda Hodgson, spazioCasa Northlands’ Sales Consultant says that these days bathroom design is focused on understated glamour and quality, rather than glitz. ‘Crisp clean lines, quality fixtures and fittings, products that feel as good as they look, and will last the distance’.
Mixing Old And New:
Many renovators are looking to cut costs by re-using old fittings, but are concerned about mixing the old and the new. However, Angela Korfage, SpazioCasa Northland’s Sales and Interior design consultant says that old and new fittings mix seamlessly, providing the design is classic and the fittings are in good condition. ‘Good design is timeless and you should feel confident about creating a cohesive look using old and new fittings, the key is to find one element which draws the entire design together’.
Bath Or No Bath:
Bathroom design is often constrained by limited space. Making the most of your available space is essential with this in mind many renovators wonder if it‘s time to get rid of the old family bath…however, the answer is probably ‘No’ if you have your eye on re-sale. Coran recommends you look at the new compact stream lined baths or the latest sleek versions of showers over bath. These new baths are light years away from the old flappy shower curtain and rubber shower rose which fell of the wall and sprayed the entire bathroom just when you stepped into the bath… The choices are impressive and the team at spazioCasa can help you design a bathroom which makes the most of your space and budget.
Tiles, Tiles, Tiles:
Modern family and executive homes sport tiles in the bathrooms and ensuites rather than linoleum. Tiles offer longevity and a sense of style and solidity which can’t be matched by lino. The choice of colour and design is exceptional and the price point extends from a very modest $30/sqm right up to those gorgeous Versace tiles…Don’t be tempted to cut costs on your flooring and walls, it will likely cost you in the long run.
Check out the SpazioCasa showroom for inspiration for your next renovation or building project, and be sure to talk to Coran and the team, they are a veritable gold mine of great information and advice.
