This bathroom has no natural light and before its transformation into this cool, green mosaic sanctuary was a grim room with worn 1970s' sanitaryware and no storage at all.

The client wanted a modern design that would make the room look and feel bigger - it measures just 8ft by 6ft across. There was not space to install a separate shower, so I put a power shower over the bath. The client wanted coloured glass mosaic tiles and I chose green over blue so the room wouldn't resemble a swimming pool.

I designed a bank of tall but slim mirror-fronted cupboards to run the length of the room, which means they can keep all of their toiletries and their children's bath toys out of sight. I chose a wall-mounted loo and basin to keep the floor space clear and a tall wall-mounted towel rail that also emits sufficient heat to keep the room warm.
