The downstairs washroom — the design

The toilet and vanity room next to the bathroom (2861 × 1909, the other side of the middle wall). The same scheme as 10d, fitted to a room with no shower.

The first four pictures are AI-enhanced images, not photographs. They start from the same 3D model as the bathroom, built to the measured working drawings (rev H), with texture, lighting and light styling added by an image model. The real tile is paler than it may read here. The last picture is the model itself.

Fluted behind the vanity only. A wall-hung toilet and its flush plate need a flat wall to seal against, and ribs behind a toilet are hard to keep clean. The full-height tiled wall beside the toilet makes the break, so the vanity reads as a lit alcove.

Toilet: wall-hung, concealed cistern, matte black flush plate. Toilet-roll holder on the tiled wall beside it; hand-towel ring beside the vanity.

Window: AAW 900 × 610 in the toilet bay, head 2400, frosted, matte black frame.

Option — microcement. The third and fourth pictures show the vanity wall in microcement instead of the fluted tile, in a warm clay tone: the idea from 10b, tried in the one room with no shower. A deeper earth-brown was also tried and set aside: it overpowered the pale room and hid the walnut mirror. The two microcement pictures differ only in the basin: the rugged stone one pictured in the current design (the basin is still being priced), and the white vessel it replaced. The fluted tile remains the base design.

To confirm or price

  • Option — microcement instead of the fluted tile on the vanity wall (the idea in 10b, still open). About 1760 × 2730, roughly 5 m², warm clay tone a few shades darker than the Pearl tile. Please price it against the fluted tile, and advise: who applies it (a specialist plasterer, not the tiler); the sealer and how often it needs resealing; detailing the wall-mounted basin taps through it; and cracking — it's the stud wall with the concealed cistern behind, so does it need a board system or a movement joint?
  • Concealed cistern in the middle wall. The wall-hung toilet mounts on the 92 mm stud wall between this room and the bathroom. Does a slim in-wall cistern and frame fit, or does the wall need building out? The rev H ensuite draws a ledge over its WC, which may be exactly that.
  • WC height: the drawings mark this an “NCC Livability compliant WC”. Confirm the pan height and the grab-rail noggings behind it.
  • Fluted tile behind the vanity only, stopping at the tiled wall beside the toilet; flat tile behind the toilet so the pan and flush plate seal flat.
  • Lit flute slot along the ceiling above the vanity only (1760 long).
  • The same vanity, benchtop, basin, taps and 90 × 82 walnut mirror as the bathroom (10d).
