I have promised you two things.. 1. To keep blogging after my accident and 2. show you the apartment I am currently designing. If you want to get updated with what happened to me you can read about it here. So, back to main subject. How to design an amazing black & white bathroom with hexagon tiles and mosaic quote ? Well, there are many important factors!
1. My Talent ;p..
2. An awesome client like mine
3. Risk taking personality! Yes!
4. Concept design Read here !
5. Statement accessories; round metal mirrors on leather strap, industrial wall lights(these re from made.com, wool baskets. Don’t be scared of chunky bold accessories. They look great in bathrooms to!
6. Coordinated units. Try to match the units with shape but don’t be scared to mix and match ;rectangular WC with round basic etc.
7.Mixer taps and heaters also need to match. Watch out for taps sizes if you decide to go for round basin.
8. Play with gloss and matt surfaces. Just matt or just gloss is simply boring!
9.Storage is important don’t forget that. Next.co.uk have amazing selection of narrow cabinets.
To create this stunning bathroom I have taken a risk. I have mixed 2 sizes of hexagons with square glass mosaics. If someone told me before, I would do this, I would laugh.. here ..no laugh.. just beauty! The bathroom is not completely finished and this is only a sneak peak! The great eye of designer will catch the little things that still need to be finished but I just couldn’t wait!! I had to share with you. To design small bathroom with hexagons and mosaic quote takes a lot of work. I personally measured everything and counted each tile, each mosaic! Yes! We had typical large mosaic tile and each piece was separated and glued creating the letter. Nightmare to every builder!My client had the freedom of choosing the quote. I thought this was the personal statement for them and they had to decide about the words. I know that at some point the floor was going all wrong direction and they had to start again but I think it was well worthy result in the end! The challenge was to find the mirrors that initially costed a lot but then I found them for only £30 each! The industrial wall lights were controversial at first but it was must within this interior! We needed a statement accessories to make this bathroom unique. Read here to find moodboards of this bathroom and the concept design behind it!

This small bathroom is designed based on simple geometry; hexagons, circles , squares and rectangles. Each piece is carefully selected by me. Square and rectangular WC and bath tube to contrast the round basin. All reflecting in round mirrors with glossy square wall mosaics and matt small hexagon tiles behind the units then large versions of the hexagons on the floor. To accessories the bathroom, I thought these cute wool baskets will finish up the design but also keep tidy with all cosmetics. Originally we had white ladder here but sadly it was just too big and we had to remove it.

This is a typical small bathroom in a small apartment block in Manchester. Client wanted a wow factor..I hope I delivered! I know not everyone piece of cake but that’s what I love in design -it’s all different and everyone has it’s own taste. Enjoy the view and let me know what you think!Next week, The bedroom sneak peak!

This is beautiful! I love it!!!
Thank you Cindy! 🙂
Beautiful bathroom! Very creative! Are you by chance a very tall person? I feel like my short little five foot self wouldn't be able to reach the mirror! ha! But it's stunning!
No actually I am very short. I could easily stand in front and see myself. The mirrors are large.
I love this! I cringe to think how long it must have taken you, but it was well worth it in the end. Just beautiful.
Took a while true but worth every minute! Good design takes time as my boss says! 😉
Wow I love this so much! You are very talented indeed 🙂 x
Thank you soo much!!

I love the shelf/sink/ledge/toilet configuration. I'll have to keep it in mind if I ever redo my guest bathroom. Seems like such a great way to save space… =)

I love the quote in the tiles! So creative.
Thank you!! it took a while!
This is a very unique and creative design. Can't wait to see more pics of this apartment.
Thank you Carmen , I am excited to reveal it as well!
It's very cool, not my style but it's very pretty!
Lisa thank you, appreciate it! I understand, totally! Everyone has different taste and thats why we have al styles like luxuriors, skandinavian minimalism industrial etc everyone has smg for themself right? 🙂
So true!
Aww im glad you came back Lisa! 🙂
Wiesz co, jak nie podobały mi się mieszania kanciastych form z okrągłymi to tu wszystko idealnie się zgrało. Nawet prostokątne lustro by nie pasowało – chyba, że takie wypełniające całą ścianę ponad stelaż do sufitu. Genialnie!
Lustra dopelnily nie? Balam sie jak cholera bo wiele elementuj racjonalnie nie powinno pasowac a sie wpasowaly 🙂 Dziekuje! 🙂
Aniu świetny projekt, jakkolwiek ja biegłam już od razu po jakieś kolorowe dodatki, doceniam wszystkie szczegóły i charakter. Płytki przy wannie ułożone w napis dodają projektowi trochę "jaj" i poczucia humoru. Dwa a nie jedno lustro świetnie się komponują. Super!
Dziekuje! Ja wiem, ze ty bys mi z kolorem tutaj haha ( ja tez) ale.. uwazam, ze akurat tutaj jest duzo dosadnych detali i jakikolwiek kolor zwyczajnie byloby juz za duzo a jest juz to na pograniczu ;p poczekaj poczekaj jak pokaze reszte!
Fajna łazienka:) Ale nasze projekty łączy chyba jedynie biel i czerń + użycie heksagonów;) Pozdrawiam
tak tak generalnie o to mne chodzilo ,ze heksagony i czarno biala 🙂
Piękna łazienka:)
Wszystko co inne zawsze mi się podoba:)
Pozdrawiam serdecznie:)
Marta
Dziekuje , jest inaczej. Mialo byc inaczej! 🙂
I love the unique bathroom tile design!
Thanks Hannah!
Very creative, you did an amazing job!!
Thank you Ella! I tried! 🙂
That's absolutely beautiful! =) You're very creative!
Thank you Jaime!
Chodzą za mną te lustra wieszane jakby na paskach – łazienka przemyślana i zrobiona z pomysłem – nie mój styl, ale definitywnie jest "wow" effect 🙂 podobaja mi się plytki na podłodze:)
Dziekuje Martus! Styl jest totalnie odmienny od tradycyjnych, kompletnie odzwierciedla moj styl ale tez klienta! To jest to wlasnie czego szukali cos innego nie tradycyjnego.
