A few finishing touches was all that was needed for this bathroom. We check out how warm wooden tones with a pacific edge have been used to style the space
The mood of this bathroom was lifted thanks to a few final touches
Who lives here? Rashida and Adarsh Patel, Suri (8) and Aamani (7).
What was the space like before? The space – including the mirror – is the same as when we purchased our house.
What did you do to make it over? The only thing I have done is bring nature indoors with a plant, a stone bowl from Rajasthan and a string of recycled shells from Fiji given to us as a welcoming gift when we holidayed there. I also hung the framed print.
Biggest challenge? Having no natural light to work with. It’s a great, moody space but not ideal for applying make-up.
What do you think of the room now? We’re very happy with it, especially the print on the wall.
Budget: $290
