Client Goals
The client envisioned a bathroom that combines timeless elegance with contemporary comfort. They sought a design that highlights traditional charm while incorporating sleek, modern elements. The aim was to create a functional, luxurious retreat that feels both inviting and stylish.
The Existing Conditions
The original bathroom had a functional layout but lacked the aesthetic coherence and modern amenities the client desired. Key features, such as the single basin and outdated fixtures, were practical but did not align with the client’s vision of a sophisticated, rejuvenating space.
The Plan
The design strategy focused on transforming the space into a balanced fusion of tradition and modernity. Key elements included:
Walk-in Shower: A sleek, open shower design with textured tiles to add depth and a sense of spaciousness.
Double Vanity: A modern double vanity with two backlit mirrors to enhance functionality and provide a warm, ambient glow.
Lighting: Introducing under-tile and ambient lighting to create a serene and inviting atmosphere.
Colour Palette: Neutral tones complemented by contrasting dark tiles to achieve an elegant, timeless aesthetic.
Double Vanity and Mirrors
Design & Aesthetic:
The double vanity, paired with two backlit mirrors, seamlessly blends practicality with modern design. The clean lines and neutral tones of the vanity add a contemporary touch, while the backlit mirrors provide both functionality and an inviting ambience.
Function & Ambiance:
With dual basins and ample storage, the vanity caters to everyday needs while maintaining a clutter-free environment. The mirrors enhance the room’s brightness, reflecting both natural and artificial light for a spacious feel.
Walk-In Shower
Design & Aesthetic:
The walk-in shower features large-format tiles in a subtle textured finish, creating a sleek, cohesive look. The frameless glass enclosure adds to the modern appeal, making the space feel open and airy.
Function & Ambiance:
Designed for comfort and ease, the shower offers a spacious area for relaxation. The addition of under-tile lighting subtly highlights the textures and enhances the overall ambience.
Overall Design
This County Wexford bathroom is a perfect example of how traditional and modern elements can coexist in harmony. The double vanity and walk-in shower introduce contemporary functionality, while the lighting and colour palette ensure the space remains warm and inviting. The result is a refined, elegant bathroom that meets the client’s vision for both beauty and practicality.
