Bathroom Design Perth

This is a floor plan for my client MM. This bathroom doubles as an ensuite to the master bedroom and has 2 doorways. MM's brief was to create luxurious bathroom with a corner bath or spa, wall hung vanity with as much storage as possible. Here's the bathroom I proposed to MM. A corner bath from Kaldewei which has a magnificent curved front panel. This opened up the floor space perfectly. The Punta Duo bath is a porcelain on steel bath.The Punta Duo bath with panel cannot accommodate Multipoint Hydrotherapy Systems so I opted for a massaging shower. The Raindance Allrounder shower head offers 3 jet hand shower, overhead and body shower features. It's unique adjustable holder allows a full range of positions from overhead to body shower. The Variable (1000 x 510mm) wall hung vanity from Villeroy & Boch complimented the curved Punta Duo and was an easy choice. Extra storage was created with a shaving cabinet from Marbletrend.

Lastly the tapware, MM chose the Grohe Touch basin mixer and shower mixer. She loved the design of the handle.

Patricia Urquiola

I didn't realise how much I love Patricia Urquiola's work until one day I noticed that I had collected so many images of her designs. I find that I'm drawn to her patterns and textures. The Crinoline Chair is my absolute favourite. The contrast and balance between the flowery pattern and linearity is quiet beautiful. Patricia Urquiola is a Spanish born architect / designer who resides and works in Milan. Here is how she describes her style: "I’m quite eclectic, varied and diverse. I like to think in different scales at the same time, in architecture and design. I’m interested in behavior structures, artisan techniques,certain aspects of memory... aspects of my life."

Beach Houses

I have just spent a week in a comfortable, practical beach house in Moore River. And as much as I tried not to think about it, all I could think about was how wonderful the interior would look painted white. Walls, floors, the lot. A touch of that shabby chic look but not to much. For me it would have made it a real escape. The location was fab, ocean views, lots of space to spread out and wonder about. Maybe one day I'll have the opportunity to have a gorgeous beach house for my family. In the meantime I'll keep collecting beautiful inspiration images.

Pantone Colour of the Year 2010

Pantone has announced Turquoise as the Colour of the Year 2010. If a colour could be described as youthful, for me this is it. It's a greenish blue energising colour. Love it combined with white, browns, pinks and reds.

Emma Hack

Being a Florence Broadhurst nut I stumbled across these beautiful works by Emma Hack. Emma is known as a body artist. I adore how the model disappears into the wallpaper. The Wallpaper collection was photographed by Emma herself. Yes, she has more than one talent...award winning body painting, sculpture and photography. Cant wait to see her works in Perth someday. Her art can be purchased through galleries in Australia and internationally. All images via Emma Hack.
