Petersham bathroom
When Joanna wanted to completely redesign her bathroom, she turned to Kate Kerin Interiors for inspiration. Living in an apartment block in Sydney’s inner-west, Joanna wanted to minimise disruption and noise for her neighbours, and was also keen to make the renovation as sustainable and environmentally responsible as possible.
We created all of the design documentation required to achieve body corporate approval and supported Joanna through the process. We partnered with Stephen Hughes of Modern Edge Renovations to coordinate the trades and oversee the build. We documented existing and proposed floor plans and designed a custom vanity/mirror. We relocated the shower, using the original space to create a built-in wardrobe for an adjoining bedroom. All design elements were documented using SketchUp.
With sustainability front of mind, we coordinated all suppliers to procure tapware, tiles, fittings & fixtures, custom vanity/mirror and hand-printed wallpaper. We also chose accessories to finish off the room. Joanna is delighted with the result and so are we!
“Kate made the impossible possible. My new bathroom would have remained a dream without Kate who managed the whole process for me, taking the time to learn what I like and what I don't; which decisions I'm good at making and where I procrastinate; and smoothly adapting to changes of mind. (All those drawings... thanks Kate.) The co-ordination of suppliers, delivery, invoicing and tradespeople, via Stephen, was massive but Kate made it all seamless. I also really appreciated Kate keeping our shared budget spreadsheet current, a big help to me in managing my cash flow.
We ran into a couple of problems at the end of the project and this is where Kate really shone. Her patience, professionalism and gentle but unyielding pressure had the mistakes rectified pronto, at no extra cost. I cannot recommend Kate highly enough.” Joanna, Petersham
