Designing a small bathroom can be a challenge—but it’s also an opportunity to get creative with space, style, and functionality. This stunning en-suite proves just how impactful a compact layout can be when every element is thoughtfully chosen.
Our Cardiff based clients wanted a well designed space that fit their budged and design style. We delivered on every level!
From the moment you step inside, this shower room feels calm and contemporary. The eye is immediately drawn to the shower walls clad in large terrazzo tiles. With their subtle off-white base and a scatter of earthy stone fragments in warm browns and cool greys, the tiles introduce playful texture while remaining timeless. The terrazzo surface sets the tone: modern, natural, and full of character.
To complement the terrazzo, we've incorporated vertically ribbed tan tiles along the vanity wall. These bring warmth and visual interest, adding a tactile quality that contrasts beautifully with the smoother surfaces in the room. The choice of a neutral, terracotta-like hue softens the space and gives it a grounded, spa-like feel.
At the heart of the vanity is a standout feature—a soft blue vessel sink with matte finish. It rests on crisp, white floating shelves that give the illusion of more space while providing practical storage. The minimalist silhouette of the floating shelves keeps the design light and airy, while their generous surface area ensures everyday essentials are within reach.
Matte black fixtures tie the look together, with a wall-mounted tap and matching shower fittings that lend a sleek, contemporary edge. Their understated finish keeps the focus on form and function, allowing the textures and materials to take center stage.
Finishing touches like a sculptural potted plant and a cascading faux vine bring a touch of greenery, softening the hard edges and infusing the room with life. The large, backlit mirror enhances both light and depth, expanding the visual space and making the room feel much larger than it actually is.
This en-suite is a masterclass in balancing design elements—bold and soft, textured and smooth, warm and cool. It shows that with the right materials and smart choices, even the smallest of bathrooms can become a standout feature in any home.
