Fienza Bathroom Accessories: Getting the Last 5% of Your Reno Right
You’re there. Almost. The bathroom reno is nearing the finish line. The dust is settling, the tradies are nearly done. You’ve got the big stuff sorted. But now comes the fiddly bit. The last five percent. The part that actually turns the room from a construction site into your bathroom. I’m talking about the bathroom accessories. All those little bits of hardware you’ll touch and use every single day. Get these wrong, and the whole room feels off. Here at The Blue Space, we see it all the time. People spend a bomb on tiles and taps, then skimp on the accessories. Big mistake. That's why we’re pretty big fans of Fienza. They make gear that looks ace, is built like a brick dunny, and doesn’t cost the earth.
Think about it. The whole vibe of your new bathroom can be made or broken by these final choices. Your robe hook, the towel rail, the loo roll holder. It's the stuff that needs to work, day in, day out, without you ever having to think about it. And it needs to look good while doing it. Fienza gets that. They make a whole heap of stuff in different styles, so whether you’re going for a flash new modern look or something a bit more classic, you can find gear that ties it all together. No stress. Just good-looking, hardworking kit.
What Are We Even Talking About? Bathroom Accessories Explained.
Okay, let's just be clear. When we say "accessories", we mean all the gear you install after the toilet, shower, and vanity are in place. The useful stuff. The things that stop your new bathroom from immediately looking like a dog’s breakfast. It’s the hardware that helps you organise your life. Your shelves, your hooks, your holders. That's the gear. Without it, you just have an empty, echoey room with some plumbing.
This stuff is also where you put your own stamp on the place. It's how you make it yours. Getting all the accessories from the same range, in the same finish? It just pulls the whole design together. It looks deliberate. Polished. Like you hired a professional. It’s these final touches that make a room feel properly finished.
So, Where Does It All Go?
Right, let's get practical. Sticking this stuff on the wall isn't rocket science, but a bit of thought goes a long way. Some things have obvious homes, others you can play around with. Here’s the general lay of the land:
The Vanity Zone
This is where your day starts. A simple soap dish is a classic, but a liquid soap dispenser screwed to the wall looks clean and frees up space. And a good shaving mirror that pulls out from the wall? Mate, it’s a life-changer.
The Wet Area
Keep your shower floor clear of bottle-clutter. It just looks messy. A proper bathroom shelf or even better, a dedicated shower shelf, is essential. Want to feel a bit fancy? A bath caddy across the tub for your phone and a drink is peak luxury. To stop soap scum taking over, a little squeegee on a hook is a brilliant idea. For that ultra-clean, hotel look, getting a shower niche built into the wall is the top-tier move.
The Loo Zone
You need a toilet roll holder. Obviously. But get a matching toilet brush holder too. It just looks better than some cheap plastic thing from the supermarket.
Your Walls
Got empty walls? Use them. A towel ladder is a cool, modern way to hang towels for the whole family. A classic towel rail works too, of course. And you can never have enough robe hooks. Chuck ‘em on the back of the door. Everywhere.
A Bit of Extra Help
If you need things to be a bit safer, Fienza’s Care range is worth a look. The grab rails and shower seats are sturdy as heck and don't make your bathroom look like a hospital.
What Kinds of Gear Does Fienza Make?
Fienza’s range is massive. They’ve really thought about what goes into an Aussie bathroom and made something for every nook and cranny. Let's break it down.
Towel Storage That Actually Works
The eternal struggle. Keeping towels dry and off the floor. Fienza has a bunch of solutions. Their towel rails are the obvious place to start. A simple single towel rail is perfect for one person. If you’ve got kids, or just love a big fluffy towel, the double towel rail is a must. And a little hand towel holder next to the sink just makes sense. Fienza’s stuff is solid, not hollow and cheap-feeling.
Plumbing Bits That Don't Look Terrible
Nobody gets excited about drains. But they have to be there, and they have to work. Your wastes, traps, and grates are the unsung heroes. Fienza is smart about this – they make all their plumbing bits in the same fancy finishes as their taps and accessories. You can get pop-up sink wastes and basin wastes, better-flowing bath wastes, and cool-looking floor wastes. For a walk-in shower, their long channel grates are schmick. And please, if your plumbing is exposed under the vanity, get a nice bottle trap. Don't ruin a beautiful wall-hung vanity with an ugly plastic pipe.
The Upside of Using Fienza
So what's the big deal? Why Fienza? For us, it boils down to a few really simple things.
Proper Quality
They don’t muck around. Fienza uses solid brass and stainless steel. It feels heavy and substantial, not light and tinny. Their finishes are tough as nails, especially the PVD ones. This stuff is made to handle years of use and steam.
Styles for Miles
No matter what look you’re going for, they’ve got you sorted. You can find a complete set of accessories that all match and fit your bathroom's style. This is how you get that pro look without the pain of trying to match ten different brands.
Actually Smart Design
Fienza thinks about how you use stuff. They have water-saving features and taps that start cold to save you heating water you don't need. It’s practical stuff that makes a difference in the long run.
Aussie As
They're an Aussie company. They design for our homes, our conditions. And they stand behind their gear with a proper local warranty. That’s a big deal. It means if something does go wrong, you’re not trying to call someone on the other side of the world.
Colours, Finishes, and Making It All Work Together
This is the fun part. Picking the colour. Chrome is fine, but there are so many better options now. You can really inject some personality. Fienza’s palette is a cracker:
-
Gold & Brushed Brass: Warm, a bit glam, and looks amazing in older homes or fancy modern ones.
-
Chrome: The safe bet. It’s always in style, it’s tough, and it’s easy to keep clean. Can’t go wrong.
-
Stainless Steel: A bit more industrial and modern than chrome. Has a nice, soft lustre to it.
-
Gunmetal Grey: Dark, moody, very sophisticated. A great alternative to black if you want something a bit different.
-
Matte Black: Still a huge favourite. It’s bold, it makes a statement, and it looks sharp against almost any tile.
-
White: Super fresh and clean. Perfect for a coastal or Scandi vibe where you want things to feel bright and airy.
The secret weapon for their coloured finishes is PVD. It stands for Physical Vapour Deposition, but all you gotta know is it’s a high-tech process that makes the colour incredibly tough. It won't scratch off with your fingernail like cheap painted stuff. In a bathroom, with all the moisture and cleaning, you want PVD. It means your fancy black tapware will still be black in a few years.
And Fienza designs everything in ranges, or families. So if you like the look of their Kaya stuff, you can get the towel rail, the tap, the shower head, the hook... everything. All in the same design, all in the same finish. It makes getting a coordinated look dead easy.
A Quick Tour of the Fienza Ranges
Let's have a quick look at the different personalities in the Fienza lineup. Each one has its own flavour.
