Metallic Impressions

 

On walking into this elongated bathroom, the eye can’t help but be drawn towards the fabulous décor tiles by Dune. Appropriately named ‘Impressions’, the tile has a cement/stone look base, which is covered in impressionist styled brushstrokes. The enriching copper and rust stripes add a splash of shimmering colour, making the walls an abstract work of art. The accompanying ‘Hipster Metal’ tile also has a metallic effect look in a grey tone with rusty hues. It perfectly complements the Impressions tile and both are sized in the modern large format of 30 x 90cm.

The floors have urban glamour. They’re tiled with ‘Metal Rec’ 60 x 60cm porcelain tiles, also by Dune, which follow on the theme of a smooth metallic effect look.

 

 

The wall hung toilet and coordinating bidet are taken from the Amore range by Phoenix. The rimless sanitaryware is hygienic and easy to clean with a quick release hinge system. The ultra-slim and short-projection design makes them perfect for the unusual shape of this particular bathroom.

The counter-top basin by Qualitex is sitting on a vanity unit in the main focal point. The Helena white ceramic basin has no tap holes, so the free-standing tap can be a feature of its own. This high-rise tap, as well as the bidet tap, are taken from Kartell’s Flair range.

 

 

The shower area is a luxurious place to bathe. The deluxe shower screen by Qualitex is paired with a Traymate gel-coated stone resin shower tray. Its ultra-low profile brings a smart modern look of a wetroom and the stylish linear waste cover includes a self-cleaning vortex waste unit. The shower itself has a dual function thermostatic touch control valve. The Doccia 8 shower by Phoenix has a square blade shower head and an additional handset and smooth flex hose.

The large heated towel rail is ideally placed beside the enclosure. The Carla designer radiator by Phoenix is anthracite in colour, which blends well with the colour scheme.
