Our new bathroom

vor 8 Jahren

This is @ 6x10 main upstairs bath. We have a 20k max budget. We are undecided whether to try to fit in a small tub or use the space for a shower. We've been advised to put in a tub (this one is going) for resale value but we plan to be here as long as possible!
Any design ideas would be so verybappreciated! Also flooring, lighting, suggestions please! We are a retired couple and finally have time to do this. Our home was built in 1920 and we both like a mix of traditional and funky styles. Thank you!!

Hi @conifer18 since it is a small space, a shower would open up the room more and allow you to do a bit more and have more storage. Depending on your location I can give you references for tile and cabinetry and we do countertops! Right now most people are using grey and cream colors for tile, cabitnetry and wall colors. You could do a modern classic look to compliment the 1920's aspect of the house. Using a marble subway tile for the shower would give you that modern classic look. Dark grey tile for the flooring would compliment that beautifully. Let me know if you would like more design ideas. 760-739-0655

Been there, done that. Your current bathroom is what mine looked like before...

I kept the tub, refinished it and moved it to the end of the room under the window. I actually put the plumbing in the wall (which has its own set of problems), but you can get risers to have a shower in the tub. I moved the pedestal sink to the center and located the toilet behind the door.

I used the same floor you see in the photos below and white square tiles on the walls, but I think the beadboard looks great and would be period appropriate. You could probably use the same layout I did, like that in the first photo.

FWIW, my mother begged me to trash the tub, even said she'd buy me a new one, but I was adamant. When it was all done, she had to admit I was right to keep it.

Hallo Sabine, das klingt super spannend, ich habe in Köln ein ähnliches, nicht ganz so elaboriertes Konzept, wie das New Yorker Appartment aber doch multifunktional zu nutzen auf nur 53 qm geplant und realisiert. Mich faszinieren intelligente Planungen für Mehrfachnutzungen und als Interior- und Möbeldesigner habe ich bereits einige Projekte mit diesen Kriterien umgesetzt. Falls Ihr noch Interesse habt, würde ich mich über eine Rückmeldung freuen. Viele Grüße Boris

Hi again, I am about to make a construction work. I am planning to buy new kitchen. The idea is remove the wall between the kitchen and dining room. I am thinking about new kitchen with island. I will appreciate for kitchen arrangement. As well we are planning to add additional toilette in bathroom, I want to add some more space and shift the living room entrance to kitchen direction. As well I am missing a cloth closet at entrance and no place to add it. I am attaching my plan for kitchen, living room and the dining room, but want to add some storage in kitchen. If you have better ideas for living room design/kitchen/dinning room it would be perfect. original plan without bedrooms. My design

I think the dust reason is bogus. It's just that electricians, like most people and especially workmen, are used to doing things a certain way. "Das haben wir schon immer so gemacht" ("we always did it this way") is a line you hear often. All countries have their oddities. Right now I am dealing with British workmen in Spain who have their own and sometimes rather strange methods. But I think that those peculiarities are part of the fun of living in a foreign country, no? If I wanted things to be the way I am used to, I'd have to move back to Germany.

Hi, In regards to resale and a tube, i suspect they are correct. are you in a neighborhood that is changing, old to young? They are far more likely to care about the tub. what I would do is make sure that any connection necessary for a tub are left in and capped off. My mom did this with a wet bar and a dishwasher.

I reworked a decent-sized bathroom before I had knee replacement surgery. I took out the tub altogether, put in a fairly large glassed shower and plenty of storage ( drawers and cabinets) and two sinks. It's perfect. If anyone is desperate for a tub, there is one in the family bathroom. I know some people love a soaking tub, but we are in California and won't waste that much water for a bath. I know a real estate agent will say there must be a tub, but a retired person (like me) may not like the challenge of getting in or out, and a young mother may not have the time, and as long as you have one somewhere, that's enough. Remodel the bathroom for your wants, not for resale, since you plan to stay there.

yes, sorry, tea came, twas what i was trying to say. when you sell, even 5 years down they feel they have to gut it. Glass seems to be a huge expense. I knew an artist who just used a lot of chiffon as her curtain. I went shopping for examples earlier.
