Melrose Park

Project Summary

After experiencing significant water damage, Sylvie’s ensuite required more than a simple repair; it called for a complete reimagining. What began as an unfortunate setback became the opportunity to strip the space back to its bones and start fresh, allowing every detail to be thoughtfully redesigned from the ground up. By fully gutting the bathroom, Sylvie was able to transform the ensuite into a calm, functional retreat that not only resolved the underlying issues but elevated the space far beyond its original form.

This thoughtfully designed bathroom renovation blends natural textures, soft neutrals, and handcrafted detail to create a space that feels calm, refined, and effortlessly timeless. Anchored by striking green Moroccan tiles, the room balances modern functionality with warmth and character.

Project budget: $45,000

  • Green Moroccan Tiles as a Signature Feature

  • A Fresh Start After Water Damage

  • Warm Timber, Soft Neutrals & Refined Finishes

  • A Seamless Blend of Functionality and Timeless Design

A Feature Tile That Sets the Tone

The standout element of the space is the band of green Moroccan tiles, introducing depth, texture, and a subtle artisanal quality. Their rich, earthy hue adds visual interest while bringing a sense of nature indoors. Framing the mirrored cabinetry and continuing through the shower zone, these tiles act as a unifying design thread, elevating the bathroom with colour without overwhelming the space.

Warm Timber Vanity with Modern Refinement

A floating timber vanity grounds the room with natural warmth, its clean lines complemented by a crisp white stone benchtop. Twin above-counter basins enhance functionality while reinforcing the bathroom’s balanced, symmetrical layout. Brushed metal wall-mounted tapware keeps the vanity surface uncluttered, contributing to the clean, contemporary aesthetic. Subtle detailing and generous storage ensure the vanity is as practical as it is visually refined, perfectly suited to everyday living without compromising on style.

Seamless Storage and Practical Luxury

Mirrored cabinetry provides generous storage while reflecting light throughout the room, enhancing the sense of openness. A matching green storage cabinet adds continuity to the palette, subtly echoing the Moroccan tiles and reinforcing the cohesive design.

A Calm and Functional Shower Space

The walk-in shower continues the neutral tilework for a seamless look, allowing the green feature tiles to remain the focal point. A built-in wall niche offers practical storage while maintaining clean lines and visual simplicity. Minimal glass detailing ensures the space feels open, light, and uncluttered.

Soft Neutrals and Natural Light

Large-format warm grey tiles create a soothing backdrop, their understated tone allowing the feature elements to shine. Natural light filters through frosted windows, delivering brightness and privacy in equal measure, while soft greenery and textural towels add a relaxed, spa-like finish.
