Client brief

The client sought a harmonious balance between "old and new," wanting to honour the 1930s character of the local area while maintaining a fresh, sophisticated feel. The vision was for a main bathroom where the tiling served as a standout feature, creating a space that felt visually striking and unique, yet remained highly practical for daily family life.

The process

We led a curated material selection process to ensure the "classic charm" didn't feel dated. By using a neutral canvas for the floor, we allowed the wall transitions to become the focal point. This careful balancing act ensured the bathroom remained functional and easy to maintain while delivering the high-impact "transformation" the client desired for their home renovation.

What we did

Heritage-Inspired Tiling: Specified Hope Olive subway-style tiles to pay homage to 1930s design while providing a rich, contemporary olive-green palette.

Luxury Hardware: Sourced AVA brushed gold tapware, adding a layer of warmth and a high-end "boutique hotel" finish that complements the olive tones perfectly.

Neutral Anchoring: Provided a neutral floor tile palette to ensure the space felt open and timeless, allowing the bold wall features to take centre stage.

Material Synergy: Curated a selection of finishes that mirrored the design language of the rest of the property, ensuring the bathroom felt like a seamless extension of the modern home.

High-Impact Result: Designed a space so polished and elegant that the client jokingly remarked they were "too scared to use it!"
