Our clients had a compact bathroom but were struggling to think of ideas to maximise the small space. The original bathroom was much smaller containing only a toilet, basin and shower cubicle. To enlarge the footprint of the new bathroom we moved the stud wall to create almost double the space. The entire room was also tanked so that if there were any leakages in the future, they would be contained within this room. Throughout the bathroom, we have used beautiful reclaimed iroko timber. Both the shelving and bath panel were handmade in our workshop, bespoke for this design. The wood previously had a life as school lab benches, which we salvaged and breathed new life into. By planing and sanding back the graffiti we have revealed the beautiful wood grain below. The rich chocolate tone of the timber looks stunning, especially when contrasted with the clean white of the bathroom fixtures.
