A tiled dividing wall screens the shower in this compact Torry bathroom in Aberdeen. A slate-effect tray, basin cupboard and mirror give the washing areas useful definition without several competing finishes.
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.
Water where it is needed
The handheld shower gives a way to direct water rather than relying only on a fixed outlet. This is useful for washing and for rinsing the bathing area after use. Its rail and hose keep the fitting within the washing space, making this practical detail part of the same arrangement as the nearby screen, wall finish and controls.
Everyday items have a home
Enclosed storage beside the washing area gives toiletries and spare supplies somewhere to go after use. Keeping these items behind doors leaves the nearby surface available for the things being used, rather than asking it to hold every product at once. The fitted arrangement brings storage close to the everyday routine without adding another separate cabinet to the room.
Towels have their own place
The towel radiator provides hanging space on the wall rather than leaving towels resting on the basin or bath edge. Its position keeps this everyday item within the bathroom’s washing routine. When the heating is operating, the rail can also warm towels; its appearance is kept consistent with the nearby fittings so this practical feature belongs within the room.
