On one hand, you get an AWESOME ORANGE SHOWER and sink and toilet. On the other hand, I’m pretty certain they’re made from orange crayons and will melt if you ever turn on the hot water.

Loveliest comment, by Sarah: I think they’re made of that radioactive orange Fiestaware, like my grandma’s dishes.

What really sticks out in that photo is the straight, white lighting fixture above the sink. It’s like that was the one thing that they weren’t allowed to touch when they renovated the room back in the seventies.
I think they’re made of that radioactive orange Fiestaware, like my grandma’s dishes.
Yeah, that’s a days of disco type of bathroom.
I was more interested in what appear to be small, stuffed alligators hanging on the wall by the indoor pool.
Yellow shower pod attempts to enter Disco-very bathroom:
“Open the pod bay doors, Hal.”
*dull orangey light*
“I’m sorry, Dave. I can’t do that.”
I had the EXACT SAME THOUGHT! That shower is AWESOME!
On the upside, this house has an indoor pool and spa, so it can’t be all bad!
Yes! I want this house! I will redecorate!
I’m pretty sure that this is a prime example of the extremely rare line of bathroom fiztures by Tupperware, circa 1970, made to match the kitchen food storage Tupperware containers
The downside is that you can never find the matching lid for that shower stall…
*snork*
ROFL!
doh, that should be fixtures, not fiztures!
Indoor pool! All right! Bright yellow-orange plumbing fixtures! Uhhh….
There appears to be a shower in the middle of the wall in one of the long narrow rooms. It looks like one of those shower heads on a metal hose, with a couple of handles for hot and cold. Did anybody else see this?.What is it really?
I’d guess it’s the pool changing room, with a showerhead for rinsing off after swimming.
Sauna. Nordic country, there’s gotta be a sauna.
Ooh, that inspires me …
Disco, Disco Duck! Disco, Disco …
… Everybody now …!
Quack-a quack quack, quack quack quack quack QUACK-a!
If not for the green carpet, gross wallpaper, and all the gilded and other crap in the room with it, I think I’d quite like the orange in an otherwise neutral bathroom.
I don’t know, I loooooove orange, but orange bathroom fixtures might be taking it a wee bit too far.
It wouldn’t be so bad if the tiles didn’t actually clash with the fixtures. They’re just one shade too much off.
The mirror over the sink is upside down. Stuff like that drives me crazy.
Oh Dear, I love that they have gone to all that trouble in that….bathroom, with the flowers and the plants and the frilly curtains and such, not a thing is out of place (except maybe a few decades, but let’s not quibble) then they’ve gone and left an old cleaning rag hanging off the basin pipe!
Totally spoils the effect for me, I’m sorry but I will not buy this house until they remove the rag.
I think that this place actually has potential. Removal of most of the tiles and carpeting … and the orange bathroom fixtures … a heck of a lot of paint and sweat and I think this place could be totally awesome.
I personally like the space pod shower stall … it just needs very different colors in the rest of the bathroom and those mirror needs to be burned. I also fail to understand people who put carpets in bathrooms. *shudders*
Carpet? I thought it was astro turf!
And the shower’s on a platform! Like it’s about to take off!
The whole thing reminds me of the inside of a beehive on a cheery sunny morning.
I actually kinda like it.
Not saying I’d be brave enough to decorate like that.
Actually, I can live with the Tupperware-style fixtures.
It’s the tile walls that I’m having trouble with …
(I guess I’ll never be chosen as a ‘loveliest comment’ *sob*)
(Even though I really liked my previous comment)
Aw, I’m sorry, Dawn. There’s no logic to it.
I agree. With a LOT of paint, carpet, new lighting, cabinets, flooring…..THIS WOULD BE A TOTALLY AWESOME HOUSE!
You people haven’t obviously been living in a Nordic country in early 70s.
This looks very much like standard in those days (except the shower, most apartments had bath tub) and not only sink and toilet were available in brown, green, yellow or blue (made by a Finnish company Arabia, still existing and manufacturing those but very bland colors now), it included also _all housenhold appliances_ including refrigerators, freezers, washing machines, dryers, microwave ovens (hottest new thing then), dish washers and _everything_. Including walls, floors, ceilings, windows and doors.
My parents apartment had very bright yellow kitchen (doors and window frames and everything except white roof and brown floor), bright blue living room, white bedroom (hardwood floors and white ceilings in both), pine green bathroom execpt white tub, toilet and sink as those were there when we moved in, a sky blue room with brown floor for me and purple room for my sister.
That was somewhere in 1975 or so, some time ago.
To someone coming from that amount of color anything current seem very bland, just shades of gray.
A friend of mine still has brown dishwasher from that era. It looks very, very funny in 60s style pastel coloured kitchen. But you haven’t seen anything unless you’ve seen a bright purple dish washer.
That’s something which was possible, as a mass product, only in 70s. Where do you think disco came from?
It’s true, I didn’t live in a Nordic country in the early ’70s… but I did in the mid ’70s. I don’t remember our appliances and such being an interesting color, but I do remember our bedrooms having four different types of wallpaper: one pattern on each wall.
