When confronted with a particularly challenging project, designer Mieke Solari, owner of Touch of Class, says the best solution is often to incorporate the simplest design.

"Originally, this space was a dark, cramped guest bathroom that was uninviting and uninspired. In order to maximize the space, and to create a sense of spaciousness, I took the room back to its bare shell."

This is the Touch of Class - Kitchens and Baths logo.

"When you're faced with a limited amount of floor space in a bathroom, look at lifting everything off the floor. This will allow it to be viewed as an unbroken plane, immediately creating space.

"Similarly, large-format tiles will always make a small room appear larger," says Solari. "If you're using tile with a pattern, tone-on-tone works best."

Continuing the theme of clean-lined simplicity, Solari utilized space in the wall cavity to create a recessed cabinet.
