Download our free ebook, Creating the Ideal Kitchen. DOWNLOAD NOW This master bath remodel is the cat's meow for more than one reason! The materials in the room are soothing and give a nice vintage vibe in keeping with the rest of the home. We completed a kitchen remodel for this client a few years’ ago and were delighted when she contacted us for help with her master bath! The bathroom was fine but was lacking in interesting design elements, and the shower was very small. We started by eliminating the shower curb which allowed us to enlarge the footprint of the shower all the way to the edge of the bathtub, creating a modified wet room. The shower is pitched toward a linear drain so the water stays in the shower. A glass divider allows for the light from the window to expand into the room, while a freestanding tub adds a spa like feel. The radiator was removed and both heated flooring and a towel warmer were added to provide heat. Since the unit is on the top floor in a multi-unit building it shares some of the heat from the floors below, so this was a great solution for the space. The custom vanity includes a spot for storing styling tools and a new built in linen cabinet provides plenty of the storage. The doors at the top of the linen cabinet open to stow away towels and other personal care products, and are lighted to ensure everything is easy to find. The doors below are false doors that disguise a hidden storage area. The hidden storage area features a custom litterbox pull out for the homeowner’s cat! Her kitty enters through the cutout, and the pull out drawer allows for easy clean ups. The materials in the room – white and gray marble, charcoal blue cabinetry and gold accents – have a vintage vibe in keeping with the rest of the home. Polished nickel fixtures and hardware add sparkle, while colorful artwork adds some life to the space.

We updated this century-old iconic Edwardian San Francisco home to meet the homeowners' modern-day requirements while still retaining the original charm and architecture. The color palette was earthy and warm to play nicely with the warm wood tones found in the original wood floors, trim, doors and casework.

Victorian Style Bathroom in Horsham, West Sussex In the peaceful village of Warnham, West Sussex, bathroom designer George Harvey has created a fantastic Victorian style bathroom space, playing homage to this characterful house. Making the most of present-day, Victorian Style bathroom furnishings was the brief for this project, with this client opting to maintain the theme of the house throughout this bathroom space. The design of this project is minimal with white and black used throughout to build on this theme, with present day technologies and innovation used to give the client a well-functioning bathroom space. To create this space designer George has used bathroom suppliers Burlington and Crosswater, with traditional options from each utilised to bring the classic black and white contrast desired by the client. In an additional modern twist, a HiB illuminating mirror has been included – incorporating a present-day innovation into this timeless bathroom space. Bathroom Accessories One of the key design elements of this project is the contrast between black and white and balancing this delicately throughout the bathroom space. With the client not opting for any bathroom furniture space, George has done well to incorporate traditional Victorian accessories across the room. Repositioned and refitted by our installation team, this client has re-used their own bath for this space as it not only suits this space to a tee but fits perfectly as a focal centrepiece to this bathroom. A generously sized Crosswater Clear6 shower enclosure has been fitted in the corner of this bathroom, with a sliding door mechanism used for access and Crosswater’s Matt Black frame option utilised in a contemporary Victorian twist. Distinctive Burlington ceramics have been used in the form of pedestal sink and close coupled W/C, bringing a traditional element to these essential bathroom pieces. Bathroom Features Traditional Burlington Brassware features everywhere in this bathroom, either in the form of the Walnut finished Kensington range or Chrome and Black Trent brassware. Walnut pillar taps, bath filler and handset bring warmth to the space with Chrome and Black shower valve and handset contributing to the Victorian feel of this space. Above the basin area sits a modern HiB Solstice mirror with integrated demisting technology, ambient lighting and customisable illumination. This HiB mirror also nicely balances a modern inclusion with the traditional space through the selection of a Matt Black finish. Along with the bathroom fitting, plumbing and electrics, our installation team also undertook a full tiling of this bathroom space. Gloss White wall tiles have been used as a base for Victorian features while the floor makes decorative use of Black and White Petal patterned tiling with an in keeping black border tile. As part of the installation our team have also concealed all pipework for a minimal feel. Our Bathroom Design & Installation Service With any bathroom redesign several trades are needed to ensure a great finish across every element of your space. Our installation team has undertaken a full bathroom fitting, electrics, plumbing and tiling work across this project with our project management team organising the entire works. Not only is this bathroom a great installation, designer George has created a fantastic space that is tailored and well-suited to this Victorian Warnham home.

This project is the definition of where the finesse of craftsmanship and structural brute must meet and far exceed client expectations. ​ The massive undertaking of excavating 700 cubic yards of soil to add a new basement below the existing structure took this 2-story home to 4,000 square feet. This now 3-story Victorian boasts 1,800 additional square feet of useable space including a third living room with soundproof insulation and custom built-in cabinetry, a wet bar, full bathroom with Waterworks fixtures and intricate marble tile, private office, laundry room equipped with a chute from every floor, and a gym & guest room. ​ Restoring, the original upper 2 floors of this stunning Victorian to its former glory was another challenge in and of itself. Rehabbing vaulted coved ceilings & original early 19th century mantels, renovating the bedrooms and bathrooms, updating the kitchen and creating an indoor/outdoor experience by installing doors in the former window locations between the dining room and patio were just a few key elements of this project.

Victorian Inspired Philadelphia Bathroom - What a major change from a tiny harvest gold bathroom into a functional and stylish bathroom built with custom tile and millwork.

Nestled away in wooded North London, this Victorian home boasts a beautiful master bathroom, guest bathroom, shower room and cloakroom. Each bathroom has a unique design, yet the four are tied together by the owners’ choices of materials, muted colours and rich, dark wood. Large wooden shutters and light, bright shades of green maximise the light in the master bathroom, where the symmetry of our painted Usk bath is perfectly framed by the large sash window behind. The bath tub stands apart on the wooden flooring, poised with its Classic Bath & Shower mixer & floor fitted waste. The intricate wall tiles by Habibi provide a dramatic contrast to the bright, bold green herringbone tiles in the shower enclosure, where our Carron shower with wall arm in a chrome finish is presented. Accessories like the towel bar and bottle rack were also added in the shower room as practical options. A Morie basin has been mounted in bespoke made cabinetry, the elegant spout of the Barra basin mixer accentuating its deep curves. A large 6-bar towel rail provides a practical solution for ample towels, whilst the small wooden stool adds an antique charm. Although the colours are more muted in the guest bedroom, the charcoal-grey painted Spey dominates the floor space along with the plunger waste and the Classic bath & shower mixer.. The dark grey fireplace and the large wooden shutters along with the subtle watercolour artwork make this bathroom feel light, bright and beautiful. The bespoke under-mounted basin cabinet featuring a Morie and Barra pop up mixer in chrome, is paired with the master bathroom. In the shower room, contrasting tile patterns from Douglas Watson have been used once again to create a dramatic look. The contrast here is subtler than in the master bathroom with pale green checks in the shower enclosure where our Carron concealed shower maximises the beauty of the tiles by being both compact & elegant. Delicate fan-like patterns in a variety of green hues are surrounding our Naver basin with its elegant chrome stand. Our single glass shelf and round mirror are the perfect finishing touches in this beautiful shower room. The downstairs cloakroom is a departure in style featuring striking floor tiles and wooden wall panelling in darker, more masculine hues. The Syre basin is more compact, but is still a statement part of this classic bathroom look. Storage for bathroom items is offered by a single glass shelf and simple towel bar. The Eden has been paired with a dark oak seat, referencing the dark wood flooring used elsewhere in the home. Photo Credit: Anthony Parkinson
