Floorboards

What floor board colour:

Black Japan
This is Jason's finish on his townhouses



However I think its a little to red and dark. And the high gloss may not suit the house.

Dark Walnet/Ebony

This floor is dark enough but not quite red or even black like black japan so it doesnt look too stark. It also looks like a semi gloss finish which looks more elegant than a high gloss.

Bathroom Colour Scheme

So I have been very confused on the colour scheme/design for the bathrooms.

Should it be grey like


Problem with grey tiles is they have to be the right shade of grey. And it looks like it needs to extend to the ceiling. Compare the two:


The first one doesnt not look as nice as the second. The other thing I'm not sure about is if the bathroom will look alright with a white ceiling

Another grey option is like the following...soft grey painted wall, white laminate floor...with grey subway tiles






Or full white like the twlight bathroom

The problem with the white bathroom is type of tiles for the floor. The wall looks like 500 x 100 white non glossy tiles. But what do use for the floor? 600 x 600 glossy tile?

Or white like this with massive plain gloss 600 x 600 tiles on wall and floor












Instead of white tiles; other materials are also being considered:

Glass Panels, but not for floor



Or resin; but I'm not sure if they make resin wall panels (floor is about $55 psm)


Big white stone pieces


Another option for the white bathroom is to use tumbled marble




but this does not always come out nice perhaps because of the colour of the marble....ie....not white enough

or white stone


Was considering using white timber laminate for the non wet areas floor....and a white stone shower tray and white tiles in the shower wall....however it hard to find a shower tray in the size i require and it may be expensive.

Althought subway tiles will be used in the laundry and kitchen, althought perfect and beautiful I dont think they would hold up in the bathrooms and may end up looking dirty. And thats why the grey bathroom woudl be a better idea with respect to keeping it clean.


A black and white bathroom is also beautiful....but again same probably with the white tiles






I like the mirror on the following pictures for the ensuite. Even the wall to separate the toilet may be feasable.



and these


this is how the ensuite looks now
