LOTS OF GREENERY. LONG NARROW SPACE. b>6. Know the factors that affect costHow much your ensuite costs will differ according to factors such as whether it’s part of a new build, or is being retrofitted into an existing home. If you are simply replacing fixtures and fittings in an existing room and leaving the layout and plumbing as is, this will be considerably cheaper than re-arranging the layout of the entire room or installing a brand new ensuite. Other factors can have a big impact on cost too, including whether there is plumbing close to where you’re installing the new ensuite that you can simply tap into, or whether new plumbing needs to be put in. If you’re extending your home outside its current boundaries to accommodate the new ensuite, this will be another added expense.Tip: When you start thinking about your new ensuite, make a list of all the fixtures and fittings that will be required on a piece of paper.

Just bear in mind that you won’t be able to fix towel rails or other accessories to the back of a pocket door, as you would with a hinged door, or one that simply slides across a blank wall.Tip: If your ensuite is dark, you might consider glazing the sliding door so you can ‘borrow’ light from the adjoining room. Frosted glass would also allow for a sense of privacy.10 Storage Rules for a Neat Ensuite
9. The rise of ‘haute bohemian’ styleEven now, there is a looseness creeping into interiors, which looks as though it will continue to evolve in 2018. This is all about rejecting conformity to a particular interior look, a la minimalism, and instead embracing self-expression and imperfection. Whimsical, individual touches will be welcomed, albeit with the odd luxe touch to lift the look, such as brass handles, silk in soft furnishings, even the odd frill…
