Bathrooms with Imagination

You might not necessarily want to theme your own bathroom quite as extravagantly as Jania Bee from San Francisco's Potrero Hill, but you can certainly take inspiration from her work. The wonderful 'Gaudi Submarine' bathroom is imaginative, colourful, and simply breathtaking.


This is a bathroom that has been described as the 'Yellow Submarine crash-lands on Gaudi's beach house in 'Brazil' (the Movie)'


The 'Yellow submarine' freestanding bath has been painted yellow with images of the fab four looking out from small portholes. The bath is enhanced with a gold traditional bath/shower mixer and gold bath rack.


The incredible images on the wall are made up of thousands of small mosaics in the style of Spanish architect and genius Antoni Gaudi.


Close-up attention to detail is remarkable and hugely impressive .



Other rooms in the house have been given similar treatment. Jania bought the property in 1997 and invited her friends and fellow artists to come and stay, play and help with the evolving decor . Read more about her private residence / communal art project here.

Stylish Bathroom Furniture Ideas

Some of our favourite bathroom furniture at Beccles Tile & Bathroom Centre includes the popular Eco modular bathroom furniture & Eco fitted bathroom furniture ranges.



The fitted furniture makes best use of wall space, which is so useful in the smaller size of bathrooms and so typically found in many British households. 



The modular range will make best use of the space in a larger bathroom, and can be arranged to complement your personal style choice.



Eco Bathrooms use only components and raw materials recognised as being the best within the industry.



The Eco Bathrooms fitted furniture range consists of two depths of units in a wide variety of sizes. Doors are available in slab, shaker or handless designs with a gloss, matt or textured finish. Cabinets are available in both matching and complimentary finishes. 
Soft close doors are complimented by a range of tasteful handles, or handle free with a push-click opening.



For the larger bathroom and those with contemporary tastes, two collections of stylish modular furniture are available in many width, height and depth options. 



To complete your Eco Bathrooms furniture there is an equally stylish collection of sanitaryware available including bespoke basins that will ensure the lines of your furniture are not compromised.


For those in Norfolk and Suffolk, Pura Bathroom Furniture is on display in the showroom at

Enjoy Your Ultimate Shower Experience Every Time With Aqualisa Q

Aqualisa have created a shower that wakes up when you do, and is ready when you are. 

The Aqualisa Q greets you with a cheery 'Hello' and will then recreate your favourite shower experience with the MyQ feature. That unique combination of temperature, flow, choice of outlet, and time can be selected and saved, allowing you to relive it at any time without any need for guesswork. Further options include choosing from one of the pre-set experiences Sport, Family, or Eco.


It's simply a pleasure to touch, from the glossy finish of the glass screen to the bevelled edges of the temperature bezel, Q's lever is controlled by magnets and allows you to glide effortlessly through the menus.
All Aqualisa smart showers feature temperature-ready indication, which means you don’t need to keep checking to see when your shower is ready. With remote control, you won’t get a cold wet arm in the process. A simple on/off and the ability to divert to a second outlet mean that you have complete control so that nothing spoils your perfect shower.
The digital era made the remote control possible, and you will wonder how you ever managed without one. It starts your shower remotely so you only ever need to step in when it’s temperature-ready. We now call this smart showering.

The controller and matching handset are available in 5 different colourways. Make your personal style statement choosing from Stardust Silver, Polar White, Sunrise Orange, Lagoon Blue or Shadow Grey.



Visit us at Beccles Tile & Bathroom Centre to see the Aqualisa Q Shower in all its glory !

A Patchwork Of Tiles

Patchwork patterns have always been popular, traditionally used in the home with quilts and wall hung tapestries. 
In more recent years people have used decorative tiles to create a pattern of patchwork on the walls and floors of their homes, and here at Beccles Tile & Bathroom Centre we see this trend growing ever stronger in recent years



The Odyssey Tapestry ceramic tiles by Original Style are the perfect example of the type of design that is proving so popular. They are a collection of tiles which can be used individually or mixed together in a patchwork pattern. 


 Odyssey Tapestry Ceramic Tiles in Blue

This range is perfect for use as a feature anywhere in the home, and will look equally elegant in a bathroom or kitchen setting. Choose from either black or blue colourways, both on a brilliant white background, to create your own unique, personal style.



For a more exotic effect, you can't beat the patterns and colours of the Chateux Collection. This range has been inspired by the designs and tones of colour used in the ceramics of ancient Persia and Morocco, the kelim rugs of Istanbul, and even French tapestries and Andalusian pottery.
Again these patterns can be used individually or woven together to produce a rich, textured  feature wall.




Original Style have more great ranges and ideas for patchwork and tapestry style tiles detailed on their blog post Tapestry with tiles, or for those local to Norfolk and Suffolk visit our showroom at Beccles Tile & Bathroom Centre
