Rental Toilet Transformed: Japanese Creator Shares Ingenious DIY Floor Upgrade

Tokyo, Japan A Japanese freelance writer, known online as "すみ｜100日で築40年賃貸を一流ホテル風に" (Sumi | 100 Days to Transform a 40-Year-Old Rental into a First-Class Hotel Style), has garnered significant attention for their latest home renovation project. The creator, who is undertaking a 100-day challenge to elevate their four-decade-old rental apartment, recently showcased the dramatic transformation of their toilet area. The video details the process of upgrading the toilet floor, which the author described as "unusually dim and a bit eerie." Utilizing leftover cushion flooring from their living room, the DIY enthusiast demonstrated an ingenious technique for precise installation. "I learned this paper template technique from Instagram," the creator explained, referring to the method used to perfectly contour the new flooring around the toilet bowl. The renovation highlights a key benefit for renters: the ability to achieve a high-quality finish without permanent alterations. The new flooring fits snugly without the need for adhesive tape, ensuring that the original condition can be easily restored. This approach allows tenants to personalize their living spaces while adhering to rental property regulations. The project is part of a larger endeavor to convert the entire aged apartment into a stylish, hotel-inspired environment.
