Porcelain vs ceramic in a bathroom isn’t a status thing. It’s a water thing. 💦
Let me explain: Porcelain is fired above 1200°C, which turns the clay almost glass. Water absorption comes in under 0.5%. Ceramic is fired lower, stays porous, and can absorb 3 to 10% water depending on the tile.
That doesn’t make ceramic bad. It makes it wrong for certain zones. Shower walls, shower floors, anywhere water sits or sprays directly, that’s porcelain territory. Ceramic is fine on a dry bathroom wall, a backsplash, anywhere water only ever touches briefly.
The mistake isn’t choosing ceramic. It’s putting it where porcelain should be, and finding out three years later when the grout starts staining and the tile starts looking tired.
Ask your supplier for the absorption rating before you tile a shower. That one number tells you if it belongs there.
Don’t build a wall.
Everyone’s first instinct when they want to divide a space is to frame and drywall. Permanent. Expensive. Locks you in.
But what if you need flexibility? What if you want to change it in 5 years?
Here are the solutions that actually work.

Your walls are insulated. Your windows are the hole you forgot.
Every window carries one number that decides how much heat it leaks: the U-value (Uw). Lower means warmer rooms and lower bills. Single-pane glass sits around 5.0. Modern triple glazing gets down near 0.6. That is the difference between heating your street and heating your home.
But the glass is only half the story. A cheap frame drags the whole window down, triple glazing can backfire on a sunny south facade by blocking free winter heat, and even a perfect window leaks if it is fitted badly. The number on the label only counts if everything around it is right.
Not sure what your windows are costing you? DM the word FENSTER and we will help you read the numbers.
You googled “escape this job” and got nowhere.
Another deadline. Another critique. Another year watching ideas get watered down by committee and budget.
Late nights redoing work that was already good. Red marks all over your designs. Meetings about meetings.
And then the disappointment when nothing changes and you sit there thinking: “I guess this is it. This is forever.”
Guess what? It doesn’t have to be.
I got out. Built my own studio. Now I help people see what’s actually wrong with their spaces instead of what’s wrong with them.
DM me and I’ll show you how I did it... whether you want to build your own studio or just fix the space you’re stuck in.
Section. Elevation. Floorplan. Axonometric. Point perspective. These aren’t just drawings. They’re different ways of seeing the same space and basically each one tells you or shows you something the others don’t.

Your apartment isn’t too small. The floorplan is just wasting it.
Most people blame the square meters. They move, they buy bigger, they pay more. But the size was rarely the problem. The layout was.
A good floorplan doesn’t add space. It removes friction. And most broken layouts can be fixed without touching a single wall. You move the function, not the structure.
Want to know what’s quietly killing yours?
DM the word FLOORPLAN and we will mark up your layout.

Everyone who sees this project asks the same thing. Why not just demolish it and build new. The before was a tired timber chalet sitting low on old brick piers, right on the water, right in the flood line. Single skin, rotten boards. Easy to write off as a teardown.
But here’s what most people miss. On a plot like this you don’t get to start from a blank site. The existing building is the permission. Its footprint, its established use, its right to sit on land you would never get consent to build on from scratch today. Clear it with no plan and you can lose all of that.
So we didn’t treat the old chalet as something to get rid of. We treated it as the thing that made the whole site possible.
The new home keeps the footprint and the relationship to the river, lifts the living spaces clear of the flood risk, and opens the entire water elevation to glass. Same plot. Same right to be there. A completely different building.
The value of an old building is rarely the building. It’s everything the building lets you keep.
If you work with constrained or older sites, where do you land. Replace and protect the consent, or fight for new.
If you’re staring at an old or awkward site wondering whether it’s worth saving, that’s the conversation we like having.
Snapping for the renovation to finish itself.
Still waiting… 🫠
