Implementation
One clear path from idea to finished space
You don’t need to know in advance which tiles to choose, whether microcement will work, or what your future bathroom should look like. We’ll discuss your situation during the consultation and identify a sensible next step.
A consultation is right for you if
- you’re just starting to plan a bathroom renovation
- you’re choosing between tile and microcement
- you’re unsure about the layout or where to place furniture and sanitaryware
- you’re unsure about the style and colour combinations
- you want to understand the scope of work and likely budget
- you’ve gathered ideas and want a professional review before work begins
What we’ll discuss
- a technical assessment of the bathroom
- an in-depth conversation to understand your needs and wishes in light of the space’s possibilities
- the layout and everyday use of the space
- a suitable finish
- a direction for colours and materials
- important decisions to make before work starts
- the sequence of next steps
What you’ll receive
- preparation on our part before the meeting
- up to 3 hours of focused work on your project, including a 2-hour consultation
- the designer’s notes and a written summary of the key findings
- a clear direction and a well-founded material choice
- an indication of the scope of work
- guidance on whether to continue on your own, commission a design, or entrust us with implementation
CHOOSE THE FEEL OF YOUR SPACE
Two materials Two different bathroom experiences
The best solution depends on more than appearance. The substrate condition, wet areas, everyday care, desired texture, and overall interior style all matter.
Microcement
A seamless surface with natural texture
Microcement is chosen for its seamless architectural look, custom shade, and natural, handcrafted surface character.
- a seamless surface
- custom colour, texture, and sheen, from matte to glossy
- a calm, cohesive interior
- in some cases, a sound existing substrate can be kept after inspection
In wet areas, the result depends on the complete system: substrate condition, preparation, waterproofing, reinforcement, microcement, and protective topcoat.
Tile and porcelain stoneware
Precise geometry and a distinctive rhythm
Tile may suit you if you like a structured surface, a precise layout, and the option to combine sizes, shades, and feature areas.
- porcelain stoneware and tiles in any format
- precise layout geometry
- the option to combine styles and create feature areas
- grout lines and patterns become part of the composition
For a neat result, the layout, cuts, joints, and fixture positions need to be planned before work begins.
Microcement or tile — which is right for you?
| Criteria | Microcement | Tile |
|---|---|---|
| Appearance | A seamless, calm surface | Clear geometry and rhythm |
| Joints | A seamless decorative finish | Visible grout lines |
| Character | A handcrafted, subtly varied texture | A more consistent pattern |
| Substrate | The substrate needs to be inspected. Application over an existing substrate may be possible after assessing its condition. System preparation is included in the cost of microcement. | Requires a level, properly prepared substrate |
| Care | Easy to care for | Particular attention to the surface and grout lines |
| Wet areas | A complete protection system is required | Properly installed waterproofing is also required |
| Best suited to | Those who want a seamless architectural look | Those who like texture, patterns, and combinations |

PROJECTS AND DETAILS
Examples of our work and design by Nordic Studio
In a bathroom, details matter as much as the overall look: tile layout, joints, lighting, fixtures, and surface texture. So do ample storage, a calm visual feel, harmony, comfort, and easy-to-maintain cleanliness.
ONE PATH FROM IDEA TO FINISHED RESULT
A complete bathroom: design and style selection and construction, all in one place
Nordic Studio connects the interior design with its implementation.
What the service can include
- an assessment of the space and your family’s needs
- layout and concept
- working drawings and technical solutions
- selection of finishes, sanitaryware, lighting, and furniture
- specifications and order coordination
- construction and finishing work

The exact scope, responsibilities, schedule, and cost are agreed individually after assessing the property.
You can be involved in the implementation process as much as you feel comfortable with.

If you’re still unsure which stage you need, we can discuss it during a consultation included in the project cost.
Bathroom consultation and concept

Frequently asked questions
No. We’ll compare the options based on the substrate, wet areas, the look you want, and the scope of work.
In some cases, yes, if the existing substrate is sound and suitable for the chosen system. We can decide only after inspecting it.
If the substrate is in a condition that allows us to avoid removal, microcement is less expensive and faster: you save on removing the old finish and on labour time.
Yes. First, we’ll review the available information, confirm the scope, and prepare an implementation estimate.
Yes, we can discuss an individual stage.
The room’s size and condition, demolition, building services, waterproofing, finishes, sanitaryware, furniture, and the level of project support.
Applying microcement to a standard surface area takes 7 days. The total renovation time depends on the scope of the other work.
Nordic Studio manages projects in Finland and Sweden. Implementation is available in both countries.
Starting with a consultation is always a good idea. If your needs and the available information are already clear, you can request a preliminary estimate.
