Inspiration - Old-style bathroom

An example of a beautiful black-and-white bathroom created in a smaller space. White tile in brickwork is combined with turquoise walls and bathroom details in chrome. The old-fashioned toilet from Burlington in white porcelain is equipped with a toilet seat in black lacquered wood. A neat bathroom vanity fits perfectly into a smaller bathroom. This comes with a washbasin prepared with one or two faucet holes.

On the floor is the classic octagon clinker with size 10 x 10 cm (3.93 x 3.93 in.) from Winckelmans and on the walls sits the Victoria tile with size 7.5 x 15 cm (2.95 x 5.91 in.) and with beveled edges. This type of tile is also called Metro, after the Paris subway system.Half tiles (size 7.5 x 15 cm (2.95 x 5.91 in.)) with beveled edge were very common in Sweden in the early 1900s. This type of tiles is often mounted like bricks, i.e., with a semi-flattened displacement respectively below a set tile. Here, it has also been combined with associated floor trim and tile molding for a beautiful ending.
