Bathroom renovation, joinery
The brief
A dark bathroom with no window, a boxed-in boiler and a bath nobody used. The client wanted a walk-in shower and somewhere to put things.
Our approach
One stone for every surface, a long carved sink that drains to a hidden slot, and a mirrored cabinet set into the wall behind an arch. The boiler moved to the loft.
The sample board
Limestone
Microcement
White oak
Terrazzo
The result
Built in seven weeks on a fixed price. The room feels twice its size, and there is storage for everything the client listed on the first visit.
