Bathing choices and organised storage in Aberdeen

A freestanding bath and a separate walk-in shower give this Aberdeen bathroom options for both quick washing and a longer soak.

The broadly retained layout has a new character: blue painted walls, grey tiling, illuminated recesses and a dark vanity. Useful storage is built into the washing areas rather than left to bottles on the floor.

A bath with its own place

Replacing the corner bath with a freestanding bath gives this part of the room a distinct focal point. Its rounded white form stands against the grey tiling and blue wall, while an illuminated recess provides nearby storage.

Bath products can be kept within the wall instead of collecting along the bath rim. The light adds a warm detail above the bath without introducing extra furniture into the corner. This combination provides a place to take time over bathing alongside the separate shower.

A separate shower for ordinary mornings

The walk-in shower has a dark stone-effect tray and clear screen. Keeping this separate from the bath means the room offers both bathing and showering without needing to prepare the same space for each routine.

Two illuminated recessed shelves give shampoo and other washing products designated places off the tray. Their inset design leaves the shower wall comparatively clear. The grey tiles continue around the shower so this larger washing area feels connected to the rest of the room.

A clearer basin area

The freestanding vanity stores everyday supplies beneath the basin. Putting spare toiletries behind doors helps preserve the basin surface for washing and getting ready.

The broad LED mirror adds an illuminated surround above the unit. Dark furniture contrasts with the white basin and grey textured tiles, making the vanity a distinct part of the room. Its storage sits where those items are used, reducing the need for a separate small cupboard elsewhere.

Colour and practical finishes together

Half-height tiling and blue painted upper walls soften the appearance of the room while keeping the lower surfaces coordinated. Higher tiling in the shower gives that washing area a complete tiled finish.

Wood-effect vinyl click flooring introduces a warmer colour under the grey walls. The tall radiator and comfort-height toilet complete the fittings. The radiator adds a heating feature to this part of the room.

The separate bath and shower also let the two washing areas keep their own storage. Products used for a soak can stay near the bath, with shower bottles in the shower recesses.
