Bathrooms and Vanities
Bathrooms are the sanctuary of the home. They provide that little bit of time to ourselves as we get ready for the day ahead or as we wind down before bed. The use of stone in bathrooms has grown in recent years. Without the chemical and physical challenges of the kitchen, bathrooms are often the place where very delicate natural stones come to the fore. Strikingly veined marbles bring drama to a vanity area or cloakroom. Plain materials – quartz or ceramics – can be used to create a more Zen or Spa-like feel. Often installed at 20mm or even 12mm thickness, these materials are ideal for shower walls and niches due to their stain-resistance and extremely low porosity.
In recent years, outdoor kitchens for entertaining have become increasingly popular. Warmer summers, the “Covid Years” and the availability of better, weatherproof pergolas have all driven this shift. By its very nature, “outdoors” means exposure to greater extremes of temperature and, probably, to water and UV light. This makes informed design and material choices critical if the kitchen is to last and stay looking good. From full outdoor kitchens with a large kamado, pizza oven and drinks bar to simple table tops and fire pits, we hope that you enjoy our inspiration for the great outdoors.
