A calm and considered bathroom designed around tactile materials, warm light and precise detailing. Every element serves both function and atmosphere, held together by a restrained palette and a single continuous line of light.

The room is compact, and the brief asked for it to feel neither compact nor clinical. Rather than borrowing space from adjacent rooms, the plan was resolved within its existing envelope by reducing the number of visible elements and giving each one a clear position.
Storage, services and lighting were absorbed into the architecture so that the surfaces read as continuous.
A single family of stone runs across the walls and floor, shifting from a honed face to a lightly textured one where the eye needs rest. The change in surface, not a change in colour, marks the difference between the wet area and the vanity wall.
Brassware is matt bronze throughout — the only deliberate contrast in the room, used sparingly enough that each fitting registers as a drawn line.
There is no ceiling downlight above the vanity. Light is concealed above the mirror and beneath the stone shelf, washing the wall so that the material does the work and the room holds its warmth after dark.
The result reads quietly at every hour, with shadow treated as a material in its own right.
