A small room in marble
A compact Clapham en-suite rebuilt in white marble-effect tiles, with a curved shower, a marble trough basin and a lit niche.
The project
Making a small en-suite feel bright
The en-suite was small and dark, with heavy timber furniture and a cramped shower.
We stripped it right back and rebuilt it in white, so light from the ceiling and the mirror bounces around the whole room.
A curved glass shower saves space at the door, a wall-hung toilet frees the floor and a mirrored wall makes the room feel twice its size.
A carved marble trough basin with wall-mounted taps gives the room one beautiful, tactile detail.
