3/8 Main shower
The owner chose white walls and tiles to make the room look bigger and brighter. Honeycomb-shaped mosaic tiles add interest and texture to the monochrome colour scheme.
The honeycomb tiles were sourced from Criterion Tiles.
4/8 Gloss surfaces
To continue the relaxed and airy feel of the room, a glass counter top has been added in front of the window. Perfect for displaying decorative items, this sideboard helps reflect even more light around the all-white bathroom. The addition of mirrored panels on the tiles wall adds extra depth to the room.

5/8 Sink unit
With a lack of storage in the bathroom, the owner cleverly utilised the wall (built to conceal the toilet cistern) to create shelves for toiletries - perfect for keeping surfaces clutter free.
This contrasting mirror helps bring the monochrome look together, for a similiar one, head to Next. The sink was sourced from Capital Marble Design.
6/8 Tap and mirror
This sleek tap keeps the bathroom looking modern and stylish, and sits neatly amongst the honeycomb tiling.

7/8 Built-in shelves
Built-in shelves add much needed storage, and a mirrored back gives the illusion of space. Painting the insides black adds extra contrast with the white tiling.

8/8 Tile detail
Black grout has been added in key areas, to draw attention to the unusual honeycomb shape of the tiles. As well as fitting with the monochrome colour scheme, it adds depth and creates texture, in comparison to the sleek bath and modern floor tiles.
These floor tiles are from Tiles & Baths Direct, and the bath is from Colourwash Bathrooms.
