A personality-filled powder room that packs a colourful surprise

We designed this powder room to pack a punch with colour. The rest of the home is neutral & understated, so the client wanted to have fun with this space!
The client’s love of Kate Moss saw an opportunity to design a room around the Mario Testino piece that had been unframed and collecting dust for years, so we got it float-mounted and framed and designed the room around it.
The dark bronze framed mirror has a look of being hung (as the tiles extend up behind it) so it compliments the ‘Gallery’ vibe.
The dark bronze custom Volker Haug light ties in with the dark bronze tapware & fittings.
The height of the green tiles allowed the room to remain open & feel light, and to allow the tiling detail around the window to be a feature of great craftsmanship.

The floating vanity has a combination of textural stone & a lightly-grained timber veneer to bring out the grunge of the artwork.
The details of the horizontal continuous grain and shadow lines on either side help establish the floating look and draw the eye across the room.
