A luxury bespoke en suite bath and shower room
Our clients, a couple living in a 200-year-old period house in Hertfordshire, wanted to refurbish their en suite bathroom with a calm, contemporary spa-style bath and shower room leading from their main bedroom. The room has low vaulted ceilings and original windows so the challenge was to design every aspect to suit the unusual shape. This was particularly important for the shower enclosure, for which the screen had to be made completely bespoke to perfectly fit with the different angles and ceiling heights.
To complement the original door, we chose anti-slip porcelain flooring tiles by Minoli with a timber-look finish which was laid-down above under-floor heating. Pure white was chosen as the only décor colour for the bathroom, with a stunning white bath by BC Designs, white basins by Kohler, white herringbone shower tiles and a white standalone bespoke vanity, designed and handmade by Simon Taylor Furniture.
This features natural polished oak open shelving at the base, which is also used as an accent bath shelf. The brushed satin brass brassware was suggested and sourced by us to provide a stylish contrast and all light fittings are satin brass as well.
The standalone vanity features three deep drawers with open shelving beneath and a Miami White worktop by Silestone within which are two square basins and industrial-style wall taps by Vado. Above each basin is a large swivel mirror on an integrated brass mount, a design concept that is both attractive and functional, whilst allowing natural light into the bathroom. Additional shelving was created on either side of the room to conceal plumbing and to showcase all brassware. A wall-hung white WC by Grohe adds a floating effect and features a flush brass flushing mechanism and a white towel rail by Zehnder adds the finishing touch.
