Separate Bathing and Generous Storage in Bridge of Don, Aberdeen

Bathroom Refurbishment, Bridge of Don, Aberdeen

A freestanding bath, a longer shower and custom storage give this Bridge of Don bathroom several distinct places for everyday routines.

The reconfigured room combines pale large-format tiles with dark cabinetry and black fittings. Gold details and illuminated mosaic recesses add character while also providing useful storage at the bathing areas.

A bath with essentials close by

The black-exterior freestanding bath sits near the window, with a wall-mounted filler above. The clear bath rim is easier to wipe around without deck-mounted taps, while a long illuminated niche provides a place for bath products.

Gold mosaic inside the niche links the bath area to the other gold details. It introduces a smaller pattern without covering every wall in small tiles. The bath remains separate from the shower, giving a different washing option within the same room.

Storage across the basin wall

Custom furniture occupies the former bath wall, including a tall cabinet above the wall-hung toilet. Daily products and spare supplies have enclosed storage without needing to be arranged on the counter.

A black countertop basin and large illuminated mirror form the washing area. The cabinet handles, mosaic splashback and basin details repeat the gold accent, keeping the furniture coordinated with the bath and shower.

A longer shower with bottle storage

The shower extends towards the door and uses clear glass with a black tray. The black tray defines the showering area. The glass keeps a view through the shower rather than enclosing it behind a solid wall.

Two illuminated recesses give shower products a home within the wall. Gold shower fittings and mosaic details connect the enclosure to the bath, allowing the two washing areas to feel part of one room.

Comfort beneath a simple tiled finish

Underfloor heating adds warmth beneath the large floor tiles. Large wall tiles and epoxy grout were used throughout the main surfaces, reducing the number of joints compared with a small-tile finish.

The towel radiator has wall-fed pipes, leaving fewer obstacles around the floor below. Painted ceiling surfaces, gold downlights and an extractor above the shower complete the room without adding more storage furniture to its central area.
