Master bathroom per una "career woman" Salentina

Fabio Bisciglia Architetto

"Restyling" di un bagno di servizio che diviene bagno padronale. Fonte d'ispirazione, la notte, dove le gradazioni dei colori cambiano, si attenuano, sono meno intensi e le tinte vanno verso tonalità meno accese, il nero compare e prevale su tutto. L'uso del decoro floreale dal colore scuro nelle maioliche così sapientemente modellato dagli artigiani della casa delle Ceramiche Vietresi, rende austero l'ambiente che lo riceve. I moduli utilizzati: quadrato 20x20 e listello 10x20 "Tovere Nero" per il pavimento e battiscopa; quadrato 20x20 Bianco per le cornici del pavimento e del rivestimento delle pareti; infine delle fasce 5x20 a correre del Mosaico "Luna Chiena", composto da preziose tessere di vetro a specchio miscelate con quelle a tinta unita, fanno da cornice di chiusura alla composizione del rivestimento delle pareti. La Vasca da bagno free standing MEG 11 con miscelatore a colonna della Galassia Ceramiche, i sanitari filo parete new light della Catalano Ceramiche e il lavabo da appoggio Moai della Scarabeo Ceramiche, con il loro bianco lucido ceramico riflettono indistintamente sia la luce naturale che quella artificiale come punti luci in una notte stellata.

Aspen Estates Showhome - Homes By Us

Rochelle Cote Interior Design

This incredible Homes By Us showhome is a classic beauty. The large oak kitchen boasts a waterfall island, and a beautiful hoodfan with custom quartz backsplash and ledge. The living room has a sense of grandeur with high ceilings and an oak panelled fireplace. A black and glass screen detail give the office a sense of separation while still being part of the open concept. The stair handrail seems simple, but was a custom design with turned tapered spindles to give an organic softness to the home. The bedrooms are all unique. The girls room is especially fun with the “lets go girls!” sign, and has an eclectic fun styling throughout. The cozy and dramatic theatre room in the basement is a great place for any family to watch a movie. A central space for entertaining at the basement bar makes this basement an entertaining dream. There is a room for everyone in this home, and we love the overall aesthetic! We definitely have home envy with this project!

Contemporary Powder Room Design Ideas with Black Floor

Think of your powder room as a small bathroom that’s always on display. Likely to be frequented by guests or used as a second bathroom by family members, it should always look its best. Consisting of little more than a vanity, toilet and sink, you could be mistaken that contemporary powder room designs are easy to execute, but the tight space can be tricky to get right. As you plan your bathroom renovation, consider the following.

How do I plan the layout of my powder room?

If you're building from scratch, an architect may be the best person to ask. There are three main objects to consider when planning the layout of your contemporary powder room: the door, toilet and sink. Pocket, sliding or folding doors will give you more options for toilet and sink placement, while wall-mounted toilets will help save you a few inches of floor space, and make the room feel more spacious. To ensure ease of use, make sure the toilet has at least 38 centimetres of unobstructed space on either side, and 61 centimetres at the front. Powder rooms are primarily a place to use the toilet and quickly wash your hands, so unless you have the square meterage, you don’t need a full-blown vanity. Look for compact options, like a pedestal or wall-mounted sink instead.

What materials should I use in my powder room?

There’s not much space to work with when designing a contemporary powder room, so keep your design fairly simple. Otherwise, too many different patterns and textures will quickly overwhelm the space. To avoid a disjointed design, opt for one statement piece or element, such as a fun splashback, benchtop or vanity, and choose subtle materials like stone, marble or granite for everything else. If you fear you haven’t created enough visual interest, fill the void with bathroom accessories such as hand towels and soap dispensers. High-quality bathroom fixtures – including everything from your toilet roll holder to faucet – with matching lines and style, will make a big difference in a such a small space, so if you have the budget, splurge a little!
