Achieving a dreamy sense of seaside luxury is easy in any bathroom, whether you are near the coast or not. It’s all about evoking a feeling of laidback holiday relaxation.
Fiona Gould, style expert from House of Rohl, shares her tips.
“Natural materials like raw timber, handmade tiles, stone, ceramics and french linens paired with crisp whites and pops of fresh greenery is the perfect way to bring that calming sense of holiday spirit into your bathroom space.
“Step away from the cliched coastal motifs and instead look at subtle nods of seaside inspiration, through a soft colour palette with hints of calming blues, and turn to texture as the hero of the space.”
Oversized bathtubs made for long lazy soaks, positioned as the hero of the room, make for a quintessential luxury moment.
“The Victoria & Albert Pescadero freestanding bath has a beautiful wave-like detail, perfect for exuding a subtle nod to a seaside vibe. For a more contemporary seaside look, the Barcelona freestanding bath has a beautiful curved form, which would sit very comfortably in a fresh coastal look.”
Fiona adds classic statement tapware can add a pop of sophisticated glamour to a seaside look. Victoria & Albert’s Georgian collection is a lovely transitional shape, with a hint to a more classic form while still feeling fresh and contemporary.
“Pewter or English bronze finishes will compliment a cool -oned colour seaside palette beautifully, and although it is a very on-trend material choice for 2022, it’s also a timeless look that will look stylish for it’s lifetime.”
