Fabulous freestanding baths

Is there nothing more glamorous than a freestanding bath? If you have the space in your bathroom then a freestanding bath can add a certain wow-factor and touch of luxury to your space. We have been doing a lot of bathroom designs lately and have noticed a lot of our clients wanting to incorporate free standing baths into their bathrooms and its easy to see why – they really do look great!

When contemplating a freestanding bath there are a few things to consider, with the following the two most important in our opinion.

Freestanding baths look wonderful when set into the right resign. Ideally they should be in the centre of the room, but at the very least set far enough off a wall. If set too close to a call or corner they become almost impossible to clean behind and can look ‘squashed’.  Secondly, freestanding baths are more expensive then built-in baths so this needs to be taken into consideration when contemplating your budget.   

The beauty of freestanding baths is that they come in a variety of shapes and sizes, allowing them to be incorporated into a multitude of bathroom styles. Elegant claw-foot baths are the perfect addition to a more classic style bathroom, while a modern egg-shape bath adds a contemporary element to a more current bathroom.

No matter which style you choose, a freestanding bath will add a touch of luxury to your bathroom.















6 ways to incorporate mirror into your home

Mirrors are a chic design element and are the perfect addition to just about any space. They can do wonders - from creating the illusion of space, reflecting light and illuminating dark corners to adding elegance and drama to a room. Mirrors come in all shapes and sizes 

Here are 6 ways to decorate with mirrors:

1) A mirror wall creates an illusion of space and can really open up a small space




2) A mirror splashback adds glamour to the kitchen 




3) Create a gallery wall by hanging up a collection of mirrors instead of art. A perfect design solution for an empty wall - particularly in hallways and entrances




4) Mirrored furniture is yet another way you can incorporate mirror into your interiors and is a great option if you are short of wall space 





5) Over-sized or grand scale mirrors add drama to a room. Get the look by leaning the mirror against the wall as opposed to hanging



6) Mirrored tiles act like more of an art piece in this chic bathroom. Not for the faint hearted these lovely mirror tiles are a real show piece
