Many Victorian homes had a narrow toilet\/water closet space for visitors to use.   For those facing a remodel of this space the question was\u2026.how to make it seem less like a tunnel???<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many city\/remodel codes require varied measurements for space between toilet fixture, so relocation of these items is very difficult.  The answer then lies in making what you have renewed and exciting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the Victorian\/Edwardian era of design architects designed rooms with at least one window of ventilation because these homes were not outfitted with central air nor electricity.  Cross flow ventilation was the only system creating breeze and airflow in the home. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our special photograph demonstrating one creative idea for a \u201ctunnel water closet\u201d.  It might be called\u2026\u201d Have Fun\u201d \u2026 showing framed friends\/family photographs on the walls.   But look further and you will see under the photographs a wallcovering. Another design idea is a bead board paneling the height of the wall under the window around the entire space creating a separated area for photos\/artwork.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most of us think a sink must protrude into the space but look\u2026.an elongated sink made for two is unobtrusive.  And next to the sink is a heated towel holder. Many of the old homes have moisture and towels don\u2019t dry properly\u2026thus heated towel holders work well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s try some creative ideas\u2026.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
