Bathroom bliss

The atmosphere of the bathroom, created through the use of various tiles with different tones and textures

“Being an 1890 historic homestead, it was important that the new sections of the residence formed into the original with a seamless transition. The general theme was ‘old meets new’, with hints of modern.

Capturing the overwhelming height of the 11ft (approximately 3.3m) soaring ceilings was imperative. Hotel-style appointments and design were also requested — a look that was achieved with the help of Reece for the bath, basin, shower and tap fixtures. The sheer size of the wall tiles, and laying them the full height, was challenging as mechanical fixing measures were used. This meant the tile adhesive was not totally reliant on the render to hold.

 

Most of the home’s original historical values have been either maintained or replicated from new. The design allows for open-plan living with well-oriented windows to provide an open and airy feeling. You could almost describe this residence as an ultra-modern 1890s homestead.”
