To provide room for a bath and a shower, the external wall was 'hinged' outwards. This gave an opportunity to have a floor to ceiling louvred window, thus give a view in the afternoon sun. The evening ambience is from a recessed LED strip light in the floor behind the bath. This muted light washes up the wave formed textured tiles. The bath ware came from bath and has beautiful pure shapes created in matt white. The bath holds the heat due to the 20mm thick reconstituted stone construction

NZ architects you can trust
We believe in a ‘total design’ architectural philosophy, which means design disciplines permeate every aspect of the business, including the way we operate. This approach ensures building design outputs are based on facts and reality, not assumptions and guesses. Every output is checked against the original brief, however, there’s always flexibility to accommodate new requirements along the way.
Our attention to detail ensures every stage of each project is successful. You can trust us to streamline the journey to project realization by producing accurate and technically complex consent and tendering drawings, efficiently monitoring adherence to plans during construction and ensuring your architectural budget goes the distance.
