Make it Luxe
Four ways to achieve ultimate luxe living – in your bathroom. Victorian Bathrooms’ Joslyn Goodale Pickering shares four design ideas.
1. ‘Luxury is both seen and felt. Create both a visual and tactile experience with robust taps, warmth underfoot, a mix of soft textures and subtle fragrance.’
2. ‘More than before, taking a bath is an expression of luxury. If you’re in the market for a bathtub make sure you try it out – literally, climb into the tub. The goal here is to ensure that the contours of the bath conform to your body shape.’
3. ‘Make your shower the focal point of the room. They’ve become larger, with dual-shower options and adjustable heads and body jets. All these options contribute to making your shower a luxurious experience.’
4. ‘Modern fixtures are great, but avoid passing fads. It’s best to stay away from “here today, gone tomorrow” trends and rather stick to more reliable, timeless classics that will stay stylish for years.’
