Bathroom Bold and Blue
The Brief
The client had a clear and precise vision for their new bathroom, including a detailed selection of all the products they intended to use. STUDIO42 was hired specifically for the Project Management and Procurement aspects of this project.

The Result
A newly renovated bathroom, designed in a classic style, features a striking blue vanity, serving as a homage to the color scheme employed in the Laundry area
Originally, the client aimed for a straightforward replacement, maintaining the existing room layout. However, upon reviewing the Concept Design proposed by the Designer, it became evident that altering the layout would significantly enhance the room's flow and spatial utilization. In the revamped design, the existing vanity mirror along with other finishes were selected for inclusion. To minimize clutter on the shower floor, recessed shelves were cleverly integrated into the shower area. The standout feature of this redesign is the striking blue vanity, painted in Resene Space Cadet, which serves as the focal point of the space.
The Bonus
Hallway tiles to match the bathroom
