OVERVIEW
Our client wanted the look of a bathroom that you see in a high end luxury hotel, whilst taking advantage of the voids within the walls to maximise on storage.
Choosing a modern, contemporary design allowed us to make better use of the available space and allow the deep contrast of the tiles to echo elegance.
DETAILS
DESIGN BRIEF
Our design brief for the renovation works included: creating a design for a more luxury modern bathroom concept, sourcing premium fittings and linking our client with excellent local fitters to deliver to the specifications.
Our design service on this project was handled entirely remote, with online meetings and inclusive of installation to a high standard by one of Akiva’s Approved Contractors.
DESIGN PROCESS
Part of our service promise is simple and hassle-free design packages. From Design Consulting to Open Plan set packages, we ensure every renovation project is convenient and easy for our clients. There’s no time needed off work or waiting on-site for deliveries to arrive.
We know how often renovation projects can run overtime or over budget, it’s because of this that we offer a design coordination package after the completion of every concept and just before construction starts. It puts your designer in communication with your choice of contractor, so we can keep track of all the fine details and ensure smooth runnings.
Because of our intuitive collaboration tools, everything is tracked via our virtual portal and our client can keep in contact regularly with contractors and monitor progress updates in near real-time.
COVID-19 did present some challenges. With the world running on skeleton crews, some deliveries did take longer than normal, but we were able to track and advise our client at every stage. Since we handled the procurement, we ensured every order was correct and arrived intact, ready for installation. This meant our client was able to leave the hassle and supplier management to us and focus on their other obligations, knowing the procurement was in safe hands.

Pre Renovation
The original bathroom was a dull, faux-modern restroom with low-spec fixtures, an uninspired colour palette and an unsightly, bulky loo
Elegance
Well-lit and aesthetically-pleasing alcoves punctuate a darker colour palette and streamlined fixtures. The shower/bath combo is removed to open up the space and a high-end TOTO toilet provides a less-obtrusive form factor.
Alcoves
The gold-detail tiling from Lusso Stone perfectly complements the shower hardware and allows for convenient and well-lit storage that oozes design-value.
Basin
Smart, recessed mirrored cabinets mixes with down lit, feature alcoves for a more useful storage layout. This keeps the sink area clear so the sink with gold-toned hardware can shine.
Finishing Touches
Gold-tone hardware from Crosswater carries a bright colour pop throughout the bathroom and marries perfectly with the alcove tile details. The look is bold and opulent.
Tones
By mixing tones of black, gold, grey and white, there’s more interest in the space. Decorative tiling elements add depth to the useful lit storage nooks. The high-end fittings work with the colour-story to evoke opulence, modernity and masculinity.
By replacing the tired fixtures and updating the colour palette, the toilet is revitalised. The result is a luxurious, spartan and serene contemporary bathroom.
