Bathroom Balmedie: bathing and showering together

An L-shaped bath and fitted basin storage refresh this Balmedie bathroom while retaining its general arrangement. White tiles, dark drawer fronts and a patterned floor bring contrast around the washing area.

Bathing and showering together

The bath and shower share one part of the room, providing different washing options within the same footprint. The glass screen helps contain shower spray while keeping the wall finish visible. This combination retains the choice of taking a bath without finding space for a second washing area, making a single arrangement useful at different moments of the day.

Storage close to the basin

Drawers beneath the basin put everyday products close to where they are used. Items can be returned to the furniture after washing, leaving the basin edge available rather than turning it into a shelf for everything. The basin and storage form one arrangement, giving this part of the bathroom a practical purpose as well as a coordinated appearance.

A place to get ready

The mirror sits near the basin, giving the washing area a practical role when getting ready as well as when washing. Keeping these functions together avoids moving between unrelated corners of the room for ordinary tasks. The mirrored surface also reflects the surrounding finishes, connecting this useful everyday detail with the bathroom’s overall appearance.

A consistent finish underfoot

The floor gives the room a continuous base beneath the separate fittings. Its colour links the washing and storage areas without introducing another piece of furniture into the layout. With the floor visible around the main fittings, the room’s arrangement remains clear, and the surface can be attended to as part of the ordinary bathroom cleaning routine.
