This an entire bathroom was designed completely around a faucet. This matte, architectural black faucet by Graff with its beautiful shiny chrome accents deserves it and was the complete inspiration for this space. Wait a minute – is that a square toilet? Yes, you’re seeing a square toilet. This is likely the sexiest bathroom you’ve ever seen. Surround yourself in Italian tile. Step out of the shower onto Icelandic Sheepskin. Allow the clean lines from the floating Porcelanosa vanity to bathe you in serenity. The image above that vanity? Oh yes. It’s a man’s torso. Why? Because what else does a woman want to wake up to? “Your space should feel sexy and romantic,” Marae says. We honestly don’t know how much more sexy a bathroom can get. Though the faucet itself was the most expensive thing in the room, MaRae admits that everything doesn’t have to be pricey. MaRae Simone designs are always a perfect mix of high-end items as well as non high-end. “I like what I like,” she says. “If it happens to be expensive, so be it. If it happens to be dirt-cheap, even better!” MaRae Simone Interiors, Marc Mauldin Photography

Интерьер этой квартиры в Доломитах, северной горной части Италии разрабатывался для русской семейной пары . Для реконструкции были выбраны апартаменты 140 кв м в небольшом итальянском городке с достаточной инфраструктурой, расположенном на красивейшем горном озере в непосредственной близости от горнолыжных курортов для катания на лыжах зимой, а так же рядом с горными велосипедными и пешеходными тропами для отдыха летом. То есть в качестве круглогодичной дачи на время отдыха. Сначала проект был задуман как база с несколькими спальнями для друзей и просторной кухней и лонж зоной для вечеринок. Однако в процессе оформления недвижимости, познакомившись с местной культурой, природой и традициями, семейная пара решила изменить направление проекта в сторону личного комфорта, пространства, созданного исключительно для двоих.

THE SETUP Upon moving to Glen Ellyn, the homeowners were eager to infuse their new residence with a style that resonated with their modern aesthetic sensibilities. The primary bathroom, while spacious and structurally impressive with its dramatic high ceilings, presented a dated, overly traditional appearance that clashed with their vision. Design objectives: Transform the space into a serene, modern spa-like sanctuary. Integrate a palette of deep, earthy tones to create a rich, enveloping ambiance. Employ a blend of organic and natural textures to foster a connection with nature. THE REMODEL Design challenges: Take full advantage of the vaulted ceiling Source unique marble that is more grounding than fanciful Design minimal, modern cabinetry with a natural, organic finish Offer a unique lighting plan to create a sexy, Zen vibe Design solutions: To highlight the vaulted ceiling, we extended the shower tile to the ceiling and added a skylight to bathe the area in natural light. Sourced unique marble with raw, chiseled edges that provide a tactile, earthy element. Our custom-designed cabinetry in a minimal, modern style features a natural finish, complementing the organic theme. A truly creative layered lighting strategy dials in the perfect Zen-like atmosphere. The wavy protruding wall tile lights triggered our inspiration but came with an unintended harsh direct-light effect so we sourced a solution: bespoke diffusers measured and cut for the top and bottom of each tile light gap. THE RENEWED SPACE The homeowners dreamed of a tranquil, luxurious retreat that embraced natural materials and a captivating color scheme. Our collaborative effort brought this vision to life, creating a bathroom that not only meets the clients’ functional needs but also serves as a daily sanctuary. The carefully chosen materials and lighting design enable the space to shift its character with the changing light of day. “Trust the process and it will all come together,” the home owners shared. “Sometimes we just stand here and think, ‘Wow, this is lovely!'”

Let your tiles take centre stage in the bathroom! The gorgeous monochrome ensuite designed by Renette from By Urban creates so much character and class! We love the combination of pattern hexagon tiles paired beautifully with our wall tiles.

Palm Springs modernist-inspired home in Portsea encapsulates Australian coastal living at its finest. Utilising the eco friendly bathware from apaiser, melding organic forms with the natural palette of timber, stone and concrete. Architectural stone walls, soaring ceilings and polished concrete floors, the interior design of this home is an eclectic mix of reclaimed timbers, natural woven fibres and organic shapes. Instantly live-able, with vintage and salvaged pieces sitting comfortably amongst the contemporary additions. Photo Credits; Andrew Wuttke
