Ensuite bathroom with double shower, custom vanity, mirror storage and bidet

The owners of this property asked us to help them remodel their family bathroom, new master bedroom with attached ensuite.

We felt the ensuite should have functionality to allow two busy people to be in the room at the same time, the double shower has a his and hers shower head. We introduced a touch of 'sparkle' with the glass bronze tiles in the shower. These tiles are a focal point in the rool and add personality and drama. Tile trim has been used to frame the bronze tiles which have been laid in a herringbone pattern.

There is a bidet toilet seat in the ensuite and it has multiple functions for washing and drying. It's even heated to your chosen temperature. 

Whilst work on site was in progress the owners travelled to China, and there they fell in love with the silk duvet cover. We arranged a custom headboard and curtains to compliment the duvet colours in the bedroom. The wall lights, imported from Italy are perfect for reading with a directional wand that has a 1w LED light inside it.

The family bathroom is bright and cheerful with the custom vanity and wall cabinet being painted in the clients favourite colour. The walls are tiled floor to ceiling to make it practical and easy to care for. A white gloss tile with a textured hesagonal pattern has been used and that inspired the gorgeous mosaic feature tile surrounding the bath. The floor has a wood look tile, to add warmth. 

Both bathrooms have under tile heating to keep feet warm in the winter months. It is controlled by a thermostat, which is programmed to the times you use the room in the morning and at night.

LED extrusion lights, on dimmer switches were used in both bathrooms to offer functional and mood lighting. And at night there is a light contorlled by a sensor under the vanity.

Being located in an area with sulphur activity, we specified fittings that can handle corrosion, as we know that bathrooms are the third most expensive room to renovate, so we focused on recommending products that would last. 

This homeowner involved us to recommend all the fittings, tiles and finishes as well as retaining our services during construction. We liaised with the builder from demolition to completion. This room exceeded the clients expectations, given the attention to detail and finishes that they appreciate when staying in upmarket hotels.

These wall lights are such a clever design. There is a LED lamp inside the shade and another at the end of the wand - you can switch them to have both on at the same time, or just one. This lets someone read and the other person sleep without blinding li

About the
Professional

I'm passionate about assisting clients express themselves within their home and workplace, by helping them find items and colours that mean they are surrounded by objects that make rooms feel joyful and welcoming to be in. 

We love what we do, and work collaboratively with clients and suppliers, to achieve dreams and goals, whilst never loosing sight that the journey should be an enjoyable one. 

Our approach is down to earth; we communicate openly, respect your time, try to delight you with a selection of options to choose from, document agreed decisions to make sure no one is relying on memory and follow up on deliveries to keep projects moving forward. We are also able to be your point of contact for trades to clarify details during site works.

We are based in the Central North Island which makes it easy for us to travel around the North Island to your site location. That's not to say we rule out working on projects in the South Island when the opportunity comes along.
