Bathroom Decorating Ideas
Creating a fresh and natural bathroom!
In Thailand and Indonesia, in Bali in particular, the floor of en suite bathrooms in some deluxe villas is often covered with small, highly polished natural stones.
Often these stones are placed in a scattered manner in a shallow box edged by a wood frame, but sometimes they are fixed in place in a mortar bed - like a mosaic floor.
It is surprising to see how as these little stones can give a sensation of open airiness to an enclosed, small room.
The secret of their beautiful effect
The secret? Homogeneousness!
You have to find stones that are the most similar in dimensions, shapes and colors.
Generally, the river stones available on the market are shipped in bulk. Their shapes, colors and dimensions vary. These stones are intended for the exterior landscaping market.
Finding stones that are identical can only be done by hand. One at a time. This is fastidious work but, fortunately, Stone Decorative has already made this selection for you.
With their soft edges and ultra smooth finish, our stones can give you a particularly sensuous feeling. This is the result of the incessant and abrasive power of the sea during the last thousand years.
Our naturally polished stones are among the finest and the most homogeneous that you can find anywhere on Earth.
How to create an exotic bathroom
You can use our stones in many ways.
Floor or wall pebble tiles: You can install them in a mortar bed like ceramic tiles. Add a latex additive in the mortar to ensure maximum adhesion. Exoticism guaranteed!
For an instant natural effect: You can simply put them in bulk in a box edged by wood pieces between traffic spaces. You will quickly and cheaply gain the effect of an exterior garden. Why not add some green plants here and there? This will create the perfect interior garden.
Japanese or Zen garden: Creating a Zen garden requires few materials: some beautiful stones from Stone Decorative, some white sand, a small rake to design wave figures, and a natural wood edge. Voila! Serenity and peace are waiting for you.
In the shower: This is a really interesting concept. In Malaysia, we have visited deluxe apartments where especially flat, natural polished stones were scattered on the shower floor. We had the impression of an outside shower. The decorative effect is surprising. When used on the floor in interior decor, our natural stones give the curious sensation that you are in an exterior garden. This illusion is fascinating.
