A comprehensive approach to design and implementation of the plans would benefit you in this case. A team of interior designer, contractor and possibly architect (if walls are moving or there is a more involved construction plan beyond decorating what is there and dealing with functional issues related to the interior design). Sequencing of trades and scheduling is the job of the contractor while providing costs for the implementation of design work. Designing and dreaming up solutions is the job of the architect and interior designer. Using a team approach with egos left at the door will give you a doable design, a solid budget and a reliable schedule. Best of luck with your project!

It's a bit hard to tell, it looks like some of the proportions are not correct. Given what you have drawn it looks like entering and exiting your shower is going to be awkward. I'm not certain that you'll be able to open the door all the way because of the placement of the tub and vanity. Here are a few suggestions: Ditch the corner tub, and use a rectangular one that is installed with the long end on the wall opposite the vanity and shower and install the toilet next to the tub. Slide the door to the right, and you'll be able to have a larger vanity and/or shower. If you can use a pocket door or something of the like you'll gain wall space like sandpat mentioned. I don't see any storage planned. Have you thought about where you'll keep towels, toiletries, etc-?

I am so happy to see you here! I will have to go back and see if i can retrieve my posts... thought I would make them into a little book for my daughter, with photos. Quick run-down on the bathroom (not travels, no time) - The kitchen has a rather elegant sliding door with beveled glass panels. Painted white, since this was the original colour. GD's new bathroom has the doors I had picked earlier; i thought of polishing them but decided sprayed automobile paint (on a resin primer) would wear better. Especially since it is such a small bathroom, and she is so splashy. I have this finish in my kitchen and it has lasted 15 years now. A tad chipped here and there, but only needs a wipe down once a week. Same finish for the balcony doors, also split like the bathroom. We have a new wardrobe, a study table with built-in shelves, and a small chest of drawers for her odds and ends. I want to re-tile the tiny balcony, more as a little statement. Currently we are looking at Portuguese tiles, though I did think a mosaic with a funky cat might be nice. Let me see the costing. The room will be painted a neutral adobe, with bright white woodwork and an off-white ceiling. This means she can go wild with cushions and covers. Other changes in the flat; We have changed the glass in the master bedroom and living room from small cramped panes to a single pane for each section with a 1" bevel all round. Doubles the cost of the glass, but looks so elegant! The air-conditioning is being re-located. The compressors were all mounted in the bedroom and living room balconies, which looked terrible and meant the balconies (very narrow, only 30" deep) couldn't be used for anything. Not even plants. So they are being moved so that the compressors can be mounted at the rear of the building. two down, one to go. Now we can put in some nice plants, fishtail palms etc. The kitchen counter on one side came out intact and will be reused elsewhere. I am planning overhead storage, cupboards, and a draining cupboard for plates and glasses. Right now there is no dish washer, though a place is earmarked, but for now I will put in a cupboard with steel racks for cups, glasses and plates, all hidden behind pressed glass doors. This is all in the planning stage.... Pictures in a little while, they are mostly on my ipad and don't transfer well to the mac. They come without numbers... so I have to rename the or something. Somebody tell me how to do this!

@cornerstone design studio India... Yes, it does seem like a pain now coz a lot of things have changed. And it takes too much time. So basically we just wanted to renovate the bathroom. And change some furniture in the bedroom. But the designer also has some design ideas as they all go for the look and perfection. We cancelled a lot of those ideas. And yet there were so many tiny details that we never thought exist Thank you for your input. Feeling a bit relieved about that. That thing has been eating us inside a lot.
