case study
The Pink
Bathroom
Bedfordshire
This bathroom already had something special — an original pink bath and basin with plenty of personality. Rather than replacing them, we chose to make them the starting point for the finished scheme.
The aim was to retain what made the room distinctive while resolving the unfinished areas and creating a bathroom that felt considered, cohesive and complete.
the project
Working with what was already there
A great renovation doesn’t always mean starting again.
The existing pink bath and basin gave this bathroom its character, so the design developed around them. Soft pink walls complement the original suite, while patterned floor tiles introduce warmth and interest.
Vertical tiles behind the basin create a subtle feature and provide the backdrop for a new illuminated oval mirror, bringing a more contemporary element into the room without losing its personality.
Alongside the decorative choices, there were several practical areas that needing resolving. The boxing was completed and incorporated into the scheme, the flooring around the bath was finished, a new white toilet was introduced and the remaining surfaces were carefully finished and decorated.
before & after
The transformation
The unfinished areas were resolved and brought into the scheme, while the original pink bath and basin remained at the heart of the room.
The boxing & toilet area
The unfinished boxing was completed and painted to match the scheme, a new white toilet was introduced and the patterned floor was finished up to the bath.
The basin & mirror
Vertical feature tiles were installed behind the basin, finished with a new illuminated oval mirror that brings a contemporary touch without losing the room's character.
The bath & flooring
The unfinished subfloor around the bath was resolved and the patterned tiles were laid up to the bath edge, with a finished bath panel tying the original pink bath into the scheme.

Character, kept.
The finished bathroom feels playful and individual while still being calm and considered.
By working with the strongest existing features rather than removing them, the room has kept the personality that made it special while gaining a much more resolved and cohesive finish.
Love your home again.
Sometimes the best transformation starts with recognising what's already worth keeping.
