Transform Your Bathroom with Tile Space Design Space: From Dated Fish to Dream-Worthy
Are you struggling to visualise what your new bathroom could look like before committing to tiles, colours and layouts? At Tile Space, our Design Space service takes the guesswork out of bathroom renovations by transforming your ideas into stunning, realistic 3D concepts.
To show what's possible, we've taken an existing bathroom and challenged our talented Design Consultants to completely reimagine the space.
The Existing Bathroom
This bathroom is functional and well-maintained, but it reflects design trends from a previous era.
Key features include:
- White wall and floor tiles throughout
- Decorative fish border tiles around the room
- Built-in tiled bathtub
- Traditional vanity and mirror
- Neutral colour palette with limited visual impact
While perfectly usable, the space lacks the contemporary styling, texture and luxury many homeowners are looking for today.


See the Possibilities with Design Space
One of the biggest challenges homeowners face is imagining how different tiles, colours and layouts will work together.
That's where our Design Space service comes in.
Using advanced 3D visualisation technology, our Design Consultants can create realistic bathroom concepts tailored to your home, style and budget. Instead of relying on samples and imagination alone, you'll be able to see your renovation come to life before work even begins.
Benefits of Design Space include:

From Fish Border to Fabulous
Our Design Consultants have created several concept designs for this bathroom, showcasing just how dramatically the space can be transformed with the right tile selections and design vision.
From large-format stone-look tiles and warm timber accents to modern feature walls and sleek fittings, each concept demonstrates a completely different approach to the same room.
