Client brief

The client envisioned a sleek, modern bathroom with a strong emphasis on geometric shapes and a monochrome palette. A key "non-negotiable" was the inclusion of both a freestanding tub and a separate shower. The project also carried a strict deadline, as the space needed to be fully designed and specified in time for completion before the Christmas holidays.

The process

Given creative freedom by the client, we focused the design journey on the interplay between light and dark textures. To meet the tight holiday deadline, we fast-tracked the specification process, ensuring that high-end materials were sourced and delivered without compromising on the quality of the finish. By using 3D visualisation, we were able to demonstrate how the bold geometric lines would flow within the room, allowing for quick and confident client approval.

What we did

Monochrome Masterclass: Specified a high-contrast palette featuring dark slate floors paired with a matte white StoneKast freestanding bath as the room's sculptural centrepiece.

Geometric Design: Integrated clean, architectural lines throughout the layout to reflect the client’s love for geometric shapes, resulting in a sophisticated and orderly aesthetic.

High-End Hardware: Sourced AVA brushed stainless steel tapware for its understated elegance and durability, providing a subtle metallic contrast to the monochrome theme.

4-Piece Layout Optimisation: Designed a functional layout that successfully accommodated both the luxury freestanding tub and a practical separate shower within a single cohesive "sanctuary" zone.

Strategic Material Selection: Curated a mix of stone and slate-effect finishes that offer a tactile, luxurious feel while maintaining the durability required for a primary bathroom.
