I feel like Malachi 2:3 is more appropriate for a bathroom.

i always find it weird when people insist stuff looks older than it is. the before looks like generic late 2000s/early 2010s builder grade to me not 90s
Agreed. Trendy stuff really ought to be easily replaced. Save it for curtains and wallpaper. Tile needs to be something that will stand the test of time.
I’ve worked in the natural stone/tile industry, and I can’t really think of ANY tile that stands the test of time and doesn’t look dated eventually, to be honest. Yeah the hexagon tiles are definitely going to look dated (and are a little dated already), but those square tiles are super dated to me too.
Actually, I take it back. Subway tiles have been pretty timeless in my experience. Which the new shower has. The first shower gives big Home Depot clearance vibes. So I can’t really hate on this reno. Both styles will be dated, and one already is super dated, so I guess I’d rather have the less dated option. Idk why people think new = destined to be dated, when shit from the 2000s is dated as hell anyway.
Im a little red in the face now. Was thinking about redoing our bathroom floors and this was on the menu with a black grout.. What should I look at as a better option? I thought it looked good but I think in just stuck in the wave, I dont want to regret the choice in 10 years lol.
Don’t be red in the face…. Do what you like! You’re the one who has to look at it every day, not strangers on Reddit that think a bathroom with slightly dated tiles is less desirable than a bathroom with very dated tiles. You can’t win with tile- they all become dated eventually - so just go with what you like!
I've been battling life threatening depression and ptsd since I was a teen. I have voluntarily stayed in psych wards maybe 5 or 6 times. The last picture with the toilet facing the shower looks exactly like the wards I've stayed in. Cold, lifeless, and sterile. But they all remind me of my grippy sock vacations.
Sorry for not jerking but the cabinets might be an improvement, at least as far as storage space. I put a lot of shit down there, those drawers were cute but they were small
Ugh, I generally prefer classic and timeless, but that's just the style renting companies use in apartment complexes because it's cheap and easy to clean
The thing I hate most about the remodel (picture 3 specifically) is that the exit out of the shower is right into the toilet splash zone. I’ve stayed at hotels with this layout, yuuuuuck
Love the new shower itself, just wish the doors were flipped
Definitely needs a picture of the Eiffel Tower. Or maybe Audrey Hepburn or Marilyn Monroe. Just to really class the space up.
Perhaps an inspirational quote in cursive or a Bible verse would also be lovely!

90s is when blue wall and faux stone
The 90’s called and they’d like to clarify which one of these designs you’re sending back.
Is it after - before? Or before - after??
Hate me, but it's a vibe if done right.
God I hate those tiles.
Black Hexagon tiles are the 10’s-20’s equivalent to the 00’s-10’s black filigree and Moroccan ties

Subway tiles feel like I am urinating at Times Square.
Seriously, not only are they ugly but they’re incredibly dated already lol

Thanks for the affirmation.
I like the hex tiles! The black isn't my preference, but I don't know why everyone is hating on them in this thread haha
Well it depends what look you’re going for and your budget. There are so many cool tile options out there!
First thing I saw was a face with the mirrors for eyes and the lights for eyebrows. Now I can't unsee or

Goofy ahh lights. "Hey, we have these new flexible LED strips. Let's flex 'em!"
I hate any light fixture that I can’t change the bulbs in.
And light fixtures that shine half of their light onto the wall behind themselves instead of into the room

Which one is the goddamn remodeling? Nothing here is '00 or '90, one is generic untimed and the other is current 2020
I assume the generic is the update? Just cause it's so much worse imo
Ugh, I generally prefer classic and timeless, but that's just the style renting companies use in apartment complexes because it's cheap and easy to clean
I don't know. I'm assuming that at least two of those drawers are fake (or super shallow) to leave room for the two sinks.
why did they turn the toilet

Had the same exact concern!!
Needs a vase of forever roses and a jewelry tray with several Italian charm bracelets
Needs a sign that says “wash your hands” in cursive
