Renovation - Week 04C


One area that we can't wait to see how it will finally turn out is the transformation of our Master Toilet.

We encountered a lot of problems here.  The endless disagreement on the colour of the tiles, the choice for vanity top, the types of sanitary wares and the finer details to fit everything inside a small area.  When renovation started, we found out that the floor tiles in the toilet were laid twice - one over another.  When the hacking work was over, it gave a deep depression between the floor separating the master bedroom and the toilet.  It was a challenge for Chiauw to level it up.

Alas, all that remains will just be a fond memory for the years to come.  The shape of the Master toilet is slowly taking shape .. and it comes without a door.  The idea was mooted by Chiauw and her reason was 'oh, it is architectural modern and challenging'.

The Master Toilet:


The first thing that we did to the toilet was to change the window.  As the whole concept for master bedroom area will be open, as to give a sense of space, we were thinking about the outflow of the airconditioning system.  The old window can't close - it is HDB standard window with horizontal glass panes.

The new window:


Though we have extended the toilet area, we still think that it is small.  We are not sure if the shower area is big enough to enjoy a good shower.

The Shower Area: 


Basically, there will be two colours for the toilet - black and white.  We will be introducing a chiselled stone wall at one side inside the shower area.  The rest will be black and white.

The Chiselled Feature Tile:


Chiauw rejected these pieces as the chiselled was not up to her expectation.  When they are fully laid, it will be glazed with black oil to give a shine.

And the Black Granite Vanity Top:


There will be a full height wardrobe to place all the 'recycled' tshirts and to house the Joven water tank at the right entrance of the toilet..  We will also box up all the pipes.

Tilings are still in progress:
