Bathroom Project Showcase

Creating your dream bathroom can take time, effort, lots of mental energy and a significant financial investment. And rightly so – there is a lot to think and and consider in order to get it right and have your vision come to life.

From designing your layout and ensuring you’ve made the most of your space, to deciding whether or not to include a bath; will a single basin or double be better; your style of vanity and and tapware colour…  there are so many decisions to think through!

At Just in Place, because we do renovation projects ourselves, and work with clients from the ideas stage all the way through to completion, we understand how to make the process simpler and much less overwhelming.

And our project showcase is part of that process.

In this project showcase you’ll find a wide selection of the many hundreds of full bathrooms and bathroom vanities we’ve created for our wonderful clients. In addition to lots and lots of wonderful inspo images, you’ll also find useful info, tips and ideas on all things bathroom. Enjoy!
