Commercial bathroom…not easy to make look good!
We are in the process of finishing up two commercial bathrooms for a pediatric clinic. It was a tough one to really get some pop but think we hit on a couple of good ideas. The pictures are very ragged so bear with me until I can get some better ones. The finishing touches are not yet completed but you will the general idea. The entire waiting room and exam rooms are in this same color way and the “wood” tile runs throughout the reception area and gives the space a old beach boardwalk feel..which is good because we had to work with a huge existing beach scene mural!
One wall hung sink, from Nameeks, is set at a child’s height and I think this is pretty cool. We also designed mirrors with Mixed up Mosaics tile that added the needed “fun” element…and just for a whimsical touch, chose to make the doors to the stalls in a contrasting yet coordinating color of laminate: Margaritaville for the doors and Surfin USA for the stall walls..both Pionite. The floors are a wood “tile” from Porcelanosa and were a big hit with everyone.
Finishing up with George Kovacs lights and Toto touchless faucets kept things simple and streamlined!

Nice to see something good-looking for a commercial bathroom!
I love the Porcelanosa tile – I almost expect it to give like wood just looking at it, but it’s tile all right.

I am telling you Kelly, that porcelanosa tile is incredible. I am usually not one to like something that is not what it claims to be…but in this case…this wood is awsome. I have done two jobs in it and they love it..but of course, does not give like wood….but wears better!!

While the design is nice, I question the exact form of the lavs for a pediatrician’s office. You (very correctly, most wouldn’t have thought of it) position one to a child’s height. Then you mess it up by leaving all that nice, shiny plumbing exposed, where little hands will most want to be, and should least be.
