When The Dust Settles - The Humble WC | Why it's perfect space to get creative
play

03/30/23 • 24 min

Let's have a chat about that little toilet on your ground floor - isn't it time to show it some love? There is heaps of potential for these little rooms and it's the perfect space to go bold!


Enjoy this little room and get it ready for company with all Lu's tips on how to create a truly memorable WC!


'Today, we're talking about WCS, those small little toilets on the ground floor that often get overlooked, but I don't think they should be because let's face it, if you're at home, you use them regularly. And it's where your guests almost inevitably will go whilst they're around your house. So if you do a lot of entertaining or you do a lot of hanging out at home, it's probably a good idea to have a little think about giving your WC some TLC. It's a great space in the home to just go a little bit crazy, no-one's going to be in there for long. The door's always shut and if you've got any design decisions that you're umming and arghing about, whether they're too much, whether you might get a bit bored of them over time, the downstairs WC is the place.
