In modern Australian homes, weâve become pretty accustomed to seeing bathrooms tiled floor to ceiling â but it isnât always necessary.
Sometimes, using less tile can actually give a bathroom more character.
Here, weâve kept the tile where it works hardest â within the shower and wet area â and introduced wall panelling through the rest of the bathroom. The result is softer, warmer and a little less expected, while still being practical where it needs to be.
A good reminder that great bathroom design isnât about following the standard formula. Sometimes itâs what you leave out that makes the biggest impact.
