Video Transition
Early of this series we renovated Mia’s
dated bathroom and turned it into a
luxurious modern sanctuary
Mia originally lacked a bit of direction
and didn’t really know how to bring her
style together but after taking the
what’s my style quiz on the Beaumont
tiles website she narrowed down her
choices to a modern industrial look I
knew I was modern but yeah it’s really
surprising the industrial I really like
Mia was so happy with the final result
she’s decided her ensuite upstairs could
also do with a bit of work so our
resident renault expert naomi is back to
see if she can work her magic once again
straighten and just like downstairs
we’re kind of compromised you’ve got
this pokey slightly unfunctional and
definitely showing signs of an aged
shower but you do have a lot of natural
light in here yeah yeah it’s good it is
fantastic but you must fight over using
this very special shaved mirror of a
morning today I know everything so dated
in here so I would just love to get
about a DB for the space bit more story
and story functionality again maybe
ditch the eighties tall yeah more modern
would be great so I think again with
some really great tiles and some very
nice fixtures and things this could be
the second most special space in this
house being out yet definitely be great
looking to discover your perfect style
and get your enno underway a great way
to start is with Beaumont’s what’s my
style quiz it’s jam-packed with inspired
designs style advice and knockout
products to help you renovate and star
like a star
Mia has had a bit of time to think about
her on sweat renard and has decided that
she wants to go for a slightly less
industrial look that the team helped her
create in the bathroom downstairs so
she’s back in store with Naomi to look
for some modern tiles for her ensuite so
this modern feel and modern style is
really well known for its metallics it’s
monochromes it’s often quite bold and it
has quite a bit of geometric pattern in
it this is a great one for a modern look
so it does have some softness to it but
if you pair that up with say a black
gloss or even a black subway that could
be quite a striking modern look there’d
be a real feature – absolutely it would
that was fun shopping that was great
it’s really good to see what’s out me
and you have narrowed it down and I must
admit we are sitting very heavily in the
modern monochromatic so you’ve got a lot
to think about
[Music]
I’m here sitting on the end of the path
with luke from Hotwire cuz I tell you
what it is some toasters place even the
Beaumont store to be sitting my toes are
so warm and there’s a reason for that
Luke absolutely we’ve got a hot wire
underfloor heating right through this
setting so really natural even wants and
it just radiates through the whole room
so this is one of the things you really
need to be thinking about at the
planning stage yeah so when you’re
planning and choosing your tiles
obviously we’re in the beaumont tyler
store so when you’re choosing your tiles
you look at it plan that by your fall
heating and build it from the ground up
now I know when I suggested underfloor
heating to many people before one of the
biggest objections is oh my gosh Naomi
I’m not made of millions it’s actually a
bit of a fallacy it is most people in
the market think it’s a lot more
expensive than it actually is
come on give us the golden number on
average well most people think it’s
between two to three thousand dollars
can we install it if I ask people and
you can generally get a fully installed
for under $1000 that is a great
investment now it’s not just about
Tostitos though right there’s actually
some other very valid and important
reasons to consider this in your house
yeah so because it warms the floor it
dries the floor so you’ve got no mold so
your grout doesn’t go that gross grout
color that grout can do and your tiles
look better for longer because they’re
never wet and your room isn’t moldy you
don’t get the mold around the top
because your rooms always warm it’s
always dry and we have to clean it much
less often what about our heating costs
so how expensive is this to run it’ll
cost you about a third as much as
running a heat lamp unit so the good
old-fashioned heat lamps from the
ceiling it’ll cost me less than that
would much less so this all sounds
fantastic
but what
if I finished my amazing bathroom and I
noticed that it needs repair or it stops
working or something’s faulty what
happened is that we can actually get
really clever about it get a bit James
Bond yes and we look through the floor
with a thermal imaging camera and we can
see exactly where the damages occurred
and we can break it down millimeter
perfect remove one tile fix up sets put
another tile back and you’re done
that is fantastic solution
[Music]
Mia was so happy with her bathroom
renovation she’s decided to tackle
another room so we’ve called upon
interior design brothers Simon and
Shannon once again to help steer the
project in her ensuite if you’re
designing your ensuite for yourself new
think about what you want you don’t need
to think about what the kids need or
what the in-laws need that space is your
little sanctuary whatever you want
what’s really hard to find Direction
these days because there’s so much
choice out there so whether you use
Instagram Pinterest you’re a big lover
of intro Kugler yeah a lot of pictures
but I think that what’s my self quiz
really narrows it down to a select few
tiles of your choice
it takes values looks that you love and
it figures out a an aesthetic or a
direction you can run along with I mean
we’re back and you’ve decided to another
bathroom winner yes what are you
thinking we’ve got to go again cuz it
was such a great job with a loved one
downstairs Thanks now you’ll be
bathrooms done it’s making your ensuite
look a bit dated and we need to we need
a freshen up we need a bathroom read oh
so we’re going to the more refined look
yes I will leave we’ll bring a bit more
of a modern look into this bathroom yeah
I’ve got three selections again we’ve
picked a beautiful Italian tile from
Savoia painted brick is such a hot book
right now brings a lot of character and
walked into the room and because because
it’s tile
it’s hassle-free beautiful and we’re
paired up with a sort of a planer
they’re sort of neutral tile from ITT
which is a Spanish tile option number
two’s great set of tiles you’ve got all
your neutral tones here and a really
cool penny round tile for your feature
wall and they look good anywhere what do
you reckon these these look hot yeah
with a white grout that’ll bring a lot
of character and a lot of power to
bathroom okay final option I’ve got a
little bit different so we’ve got a
smaller darker tile on the floors and a
bit of a longer sort of elongated tile
on the walls and even with a bit of
texture in it okay you got three great
choices here but it’s decision time yeah
that’s a big decision but that’s why
I’ve got you guys here to help me out
with this that’s right that’s right just
as hard for us look this third look here
is quite safe it’s gonna look really
nice but it’s not gonna be up really
power bathrooms so you need a bit of
character in your room and I love this
second look with a penny a penny rounds
by then
then again you’ve got this great feature
till he’s a hot there’s a hot
I do you think that would look really
good as a feature savoy from Italy let’s
go for it another way okay great
now Christine so many people think about
tiles before they come into a store but
not a lot of people think about the
trusty toilets and there’s so many
things to consider when you actually
have to buy you toilets so what are some
of the things from a design or visual
perspective that people need to consider
well whether you’re going for a suite or
whether you may be going for an in-wall
or a concealed style toilet concealed
being very modern you can lift it off
the floor so you can have all the room
underneath for easy cleaning and again
that aesthetic if you’re going for a
very structural or architectural look
you might want to square finish on a
toilet if you want to soft feminine or
coastal look you might go for a nice
round finish so toilets can use a lot of
water so what do we need to be thinking
about from that perspective well you
need to be looking at the wells rating
on the toilet and there’ll be a Wells
rating on every toilet it’s part of
Australian standards and that will tell
you how water efficient your toilet is
okay so we need to think about water
conservation which saves us money it
saves the environment as well as how it
looks and let’s face it how it feels
you’ve got to sit down absolutely lift
the lid have a look at the toilet sit on
the toilet I like a flush try to for you
by a grater absolutely
[Music]
the tiles have started to go down in
Mia’s on sway and Simon and Shannon are
back for a bit of a sneak peek
the contrast between these two and the
floor just sets it down solid when you
see a few of these to go there’s black
fiji tiles they amazing looks really
good yeah but you know what we’re gonna
ban it into order we’ve got about 13 out
of a space only 1200 vanity would be
perfect
nice wide it gives a sense of luxury you
know what also a big mirror big
statement mirror at the top yeah big
mirrors always make the room look a bit
bigger yeah what do you think about taps
I’d love to see matte black just keeping
the same you’ve got white you’ve got
grey you got black I think if you
involve another Ella yeah we’re just
gonna hit too busy in a small space I
love this matte black tape we’re a bit
of chrome and I reckon a tinted black
identity with a white top a book really
really nice
[Music]
Naomi has found the perfect statement
mirror vanity and tap where to go with
the bold monochromatic tiles in Mia’s
modern bathroom makeover and it’s almost
time for the big reveal
[Music]
lot of contrast beautiful chat where
there’s no us to jeremyj stuff and I
like this mirror the back of it just
really good
I think Mia’s gonna really have to do
this it’s sort of the perfect finish for
downstairs bathroom too I think we need
to start
I got more tell GT a Sea King with the
towels is they get on the 10 rail and
you usually put yours on the floor I’ve
seen you about her and I’ve talked to
your wife
I think we’ll carry this on simple soil
we don’t have as much bench space as
what we did with last bathroom like it
no you know you name it it’s in the top
good a good rate no no just an article
Shannon
maybe so inside bit of proxy you know
I’m just gonna read your own magazine
and catch up on our elegant yeah I think
the girls are gonna be really stoked
when they walk in the room
we’ve got textual black brick wall we’ve
got really really nice features and
fixtures I think we’ll hit the brief on
point there’s a real personal character
field room I think they’ll be stoked
all right boys the moment is here me is
here how did it go we’ve blending that
modern industrial feel now that no
smashed American oh it’s hard to bring a
bit of warmth into an industrial
aesthetic yeah but we hope you like it
we really hope you do I’m excited
fate so the hot wire under tile heating
is a bit of a it’s a luxury surprise
that we’ve got in store for Mia it’s
gonna be nice to get the girls to take
their shoes off and just walk under that
subtly warm time so it is hot surprised
because she doesn’t know about it that’s
right oh I like that
were you expecting this
I was hoping for this I don’t know about
you mayor but that wall is the hero
piece of the entire bathroom yeah it
looks fantastic I love the way that you
guys have managed to still get texture
in a really monochromatic stage yeah
it’s important to brings a little bit of
softness to the room in that it’s not
you feel homely in the space as well
yeah and all the fittings are just what
we wanted the crime with a matte black
oh there’s a different take on what
everyone’s doing yeah having their crime
their stops and setup as well it makes
it quite sophisticated which they and
Ty’s totally into that mirror really
sophisticated then that extra touch of
elegance in the modern space did we nail
it painting and that’ll just transform
yours is such a luxury touch no more
cold feet in this bathroom
well me this is a phenomenal kid-free
space for you to enjoy for many years to
come I was a bit nervous at first
especially with all the black and
everything like that but thanks to these
guys it’s turned out so well I love it
so our work is done guys
so let’s wrap it up and hit for Audrina
it’s going to be all right
