Every powder room should be a surprise, a departure even from the rest of the home. Welcome to this little jewel with it's metallic grasscloth and deeply beveled, oversized gold mirror. The vanity was fabricated according to custom specification, of Michelangelo Calacatta Marble. Floating above the floor, this small room has a much larger feel. Photography by Holger Obenaus

This North Shore residence captures commanding views of the ocean, while maintaining a sense of privacy for the homeowners. Their priorities focused on thoughtful design, evolving from a restoration of a small summer cottage into a new home, well sited on a narrow lot. SV Design worked within the constraints of conservation and a flood zone to create a masterpiece of charm and appeal. The home reflects the tastes of the owners, who remained involved through every step of the process. Natural light is well utilized, the open layout provides ease in entertaining and in day to day living, and the views are captured from assorted vantage points. Personalized accents abound throughout the property--- warm wood flooring, stone accents--- both inside and outside of the home, a kitchen with clean lines and efficient storage space, and a butler’s pantry. The design of the property is aesthetically pleasing, creative, and functional; most of all, it fulfilled the visions of the clients.

The design brief for this ensuite project was to use natural materials to create a warm, luxurious, contemporary space that is both sociable and intimate. To create a continuous flow from the master bedroom into the ensuite, wood-effect porcelain tiles run throughout the lower level and then are echoed on the base of the shower. On the walls and floors of the wet areas, the Ripples designer specified natural stone tiles to reflect the client’s love of natural materials. The clients requested a seating area in the bathroom which resulted in a clever floating bench that wraps around the central dividing wall. In the spacious shower, a large showerhead is angled to spray water straight down into the sunken floor, ensuring splashes are kept to a minimum and eliminating the need for a glass screen. To maximise storage, meanwhile, there are mirrored cabinets recessed into the wall above the basin, complete with LED lights inside, with a bespoke vanity drawer unit underneath, and a wall-mounted tall cupboard located at the end of the bench, opposite the wet area. The contemporary lines of the freestanding bath make for a real feature in the corner of this ensuite. The results are a beautiful ensuite which the homeowners were thrilled with and an award-winning design for Ripples.

The Bathroom layout is open and linear. A long vanity with medicine cabinet storage above is opposite full height Walnut storage cabinets. A new wet room with plaster and marble tile walls has a shower and a custom marble soaking tub.

La parete principale del bagno è stata realizzata con ceramiche decorative bianche, in accostamento alla carta da parati che valorizza lo spazio doccia. Il tema del bagno è la natura, richiamata nelle trame floreali della ceramica e nei disegni di paesaggi alberati grigi su sfondo bianco della carta da parati. I toni neutri e naturali si ritrovano anche nel rivestimento a pavimento in parquet e nel colore tenue acqua marina del mobile lavabo. La gola luminosa si riversa sulla parete del lavabo, esaltando i rilievi delle piastrelle in ceramica.
