Luxurious Washrooms and Designer Powder Rooms
A bathroom shouldn't be an afterthought. I reimagine these private spaces as sanctuaries of calm, using timeless marble, brass accents, and intentional lighting to turn your daily routine into a moment of true indulgence.
For this master bathroom, I incorporated elements of both classical and Parisian design. The freestanding clawfoot tub creates a one-of-a-kind bathing experience, set against a backdrop of elegant wall paneling and classic checkerboard flooring.

Marble's dramatic veining instantly invites opulence into a space. Here, I used book-matched marble slabs to create a stunning, symmetrical feature wall behind the vanity, complemented by classic gold fixtures and sconces.
Every detail in this space was thoughtfully curated to create a harmonious blend of functionality and aesthetics. The design incorporates the client's love for monotones, with shades of grey and white creating a chic and stylish bathroom.

About Luxurious Washrooms
When I design a washroom, I prioritize acoustics and lighting before a single tile is laid. While using fine materials like Italian marble or PVD-coated gold fixtures is essential, it is the integration of these with custom-height vanities and moisture-resistant joinery that ensures the space remains pristine, functional, and grand for years to come.
Designing Your Private Sanctuary
Many homes treat the washroom as a purely utilitarian space. I disagree. A bathroom or powder room should function as a private sanctuary, a jewel box where you can retreat from the world. Whether it is a master bath or a guest powder room, I approach these small, enclosed areas with the same architectural rigor I bring to a grand foyer.
Materiality and Craft
The luxury in these spaces comes down to tactile details. We avoid standard, mass-market fittings. Instead, I focus on heavy, solid materials: thick-cut Italian marble for flooring and cladding, and PVD-finished brass or gold hardware that ages gracefully. The goal is to avoid the stark, sterile look that dominates modern trends, opting instead for a depth of character found in classic Victorian or Parisian design.
Practical Elegance
Beauty is meaningless if it fails under pressure. My designs include:
- Technical Waterproofing: Comprehensive layers to protect the integrity of your walls and floors, especially in wet zones.
- Lighting Layers: A mix of central decorative chandeliers and warm wall sconces to ensure the space feels inviting, not clinical.
- Tailored Joinery: Custom-built vanities designed to your height requirements, with moisture-resistant finishes that stand up to daily use.
Why Start Here?
If you have a home that feels empty or lacks personality, the washroom is often the best place to start a transformation. It is a contained project that allows us to experiment with bold patterns, dramatic wainscoting, or that clawfoot tub you have always wanted, without the scale of a full-house renovation.
