Renovation ideas for your ensuite bathroom
From designing with colour to adding decadent texture, and turning small spaces into alluring sanctuaries.
AI summary
Considering an ensuite renovation? Open plan layouts are favoured to maximise space, using colour and texture to define different areas.
For a luxurious retreat, consider a double shower or a freestanding bath. Using deep tones, layered materials, and subtle lighting can create a calm, spa-like sanctuary. Even small ensuites can feel larger and more personal with bold design choices.
In New Zealand, costs range from $20,000 for a basic upgrade to over $60,000 for a new high-end build.
