Not much. Just caulk it and live with it.

Remove the current carpet skirting boards, and install skirting that are the same height as the tile skirting. The carpet skirting look old or not yet finished. Remove them and do the renovation correctly.

Colourwise I would look at apportioning your colours like so… Soft warm grey on the walls. If this is possible, tie in a subtle paper on one wall in similar colour. If a carpet is needed, just a shade down from the walls, to ground it but retain the soft base grey. Small amount of brown in dark wood, on furniture. But try and keep it light. No chunky dark woods. Choose slim legs and profiles. All loose fabrics such as floor length curtains, or roman blinds. Duvet cover, pillow cases, keep white. Accents on trims, cushions and accessories, can be quite flexible here. Could be mustard, or fuschia. But choose one colour that works and stick to it. Then just try to have soft textures in keeping with a cosy bedroom. Looking through to the en-suite. You can expand on you accent colour here, and use that to invite you in. One wall painted fuschia, or statement glass tiles. But you want the view in to be inviting. Try and use that if you can. I hope that helps.

Hello Emma, What about if you were to have the study room as a study/bedroom... You can buy beds that slide out from behind a book case or shelves for example.. A double would fit and then why not consider making the walk in wardrobe slightly smaller in favour of a dual access En suites.. If you were to divide the room in half.. Have sliding doors from both sides ie current side and from study side.. You can divide the slightly bigger en-suite room and situate a small shower, back to wall loo and small wall hung sink in both sides.. With back to back plumbing. Then you can sell the property on with the idea of two possible bedrooms.. or as a study with it's own shower room for guests that stay on occasion... Small bathrooms can be just as spectacular as spacious ones, but at any rate it gives you more options as there is a full sized bathroom anyway.. : ))

And what is happening with this area. You either need tiled skirting continued or wood higher skirting continued. Is it a doorway, with a matching wall on the other side.? Is there a door?

can you show the full opening between both rooms as kate suggested you might just be able to get away with a simple timber door frame minus the door?

We have the same and the wood skirting was continued into the bathroom to meet up with the wall tiles which is the better option as the skirting is wider than a tile. Ours is a very neat job (not a reno though. From new.) It will be very noticeable in that doorway if your continue the tiles round the corner to meet up with the skirting board.

It's an opening from bedroom to ensuite. Didn't realise they were doing tile skirts. Ensuite floor and shower is tile. But the walls are hardie axon cladding

I think maybe a door frame may be the go

You could modify the skirting with a custom piece that matches to tile

As mentioned previously..I would remove existing skirting and install a higher/slimmer profile skirting board. Examples as per photos.

A simple square edge timber painted or natural which the tiles and skirting can butt up to, the skirting might be a bit deeper depending on the size of the timber

It looks like the bedroom skirtings are sitting over the carpet. I would get rid of those skirtings and just have a hard plaster finish to the bottom edge of the plasterboard, possibly with a shadowline to finish the plaster edge off. I eliminate skirtings and architraves whenever I can for a cleaner minimalist finish.
