“It’s like waking up on a sunny day every day. The room is bright, calming and airy and it feels so spacious and comfortable to be in.
Having installed a beautiful boutique family bathroom five years ago for our clients including a large walk-in shower with luxurious Bisazza mosaics, Kuche & Bagno were commissioned once again to transform their master en-suite into a soothing space with a spa feel.
There was a desperate need to update the en-suite bathroom with the original suite installed some eighteen years old in the coach house style property. The existing en-suite had a real wooden plank floor and half height timber cladding to the walls however the client didn’t use bath for some years as it wasn’t appealing to use especially after new boutique family bathroom was completed while the whole suite was difficult to clean with the amount of natural wood present, especially the floor.
It was imperative that the new space would be easy to clean and easy to access.
Storage was central to the design and the newly formed stud wall were used to house the wall hung WC frame, the box niches to soften the wall and provide storage as well as the bespoke super-sized mirror cabinets manufactured by Springburn Joinery.
The lighting scheme was essential and it was also important to get right colour temperature. The beautiful bathroom chandelier central light fitting gave a softness instead of the norm with stark spotlights while the special feature low level lighting brings a welcome night light along with lights under the basin for midnight trips to the bathroom.
Designer Comments
“I believe that having a tranquil space in the home where you can completely unplug from social media and media alike is essential for our well-being.
“A day bed is a great thing where you can relax during the day or evening reading a book which also doubles as a perfect seat to dress or undress and apply creams.
“It’s then a wonderful treat to use as a whirlpool/spa – it’s just like visiting a spa or health club in your own home and a perfect way to relax.”
