The Hidden Haven Suite

The client came to us looking to transform a generous but uninspiring bathroom into an indulgent, spa-like sanctuary rooted in warmth and natural texture. While the room had ample footprint, the existing layout felt overly exposed and lacked purpose. The client’s primary wish was for a truly restorative, luxury showering experience, one that offered a sense of retreat and privacy rather than standing in full view of the doorway, yet without making the room feel small or blocking natural light. Aesthetically, they wanted to step away from clinical bathroom neutrals in favour of rich, nature-inspired greens, organic wood textures, and warm metallic accents, alongside plenty of hidden storage to keep surfaces completely free of daily clutter. 

To solve the layout and deliver the sense of seclusion the client craved, we designed a bespoke architectural partition wall that anchors the centre of the room. This allowed us to divide the space into two dedicated experiences: an elegant front wash zone and a hidden wet-room haven tucked completely behind. Within the shower zone, we specified European Tiles Cora Verde Candido vertical glazed tiles in rich botanical green, paired with Mapei Green Grey grout to create an immersive, cocooning feel. To contrast the vertical relief, we wrapped the partition, floor, and a custom-built shower bench in large-format European Tiles Civic Cross Sable Beige porcelain. On the front face of the partition, we introduced a 1200mm floating Faeber Lunar fluted oak vanity to soften the room's geometry, paired with a flush-recessed triple-door illuminated mirror cabinet that absorbs all family storage needs. The space was completed with wall-mounted Ava brushed brassware, a discreet wall-hung WC, and programmable underfloor heating for seamless everyday luxury
