Elegant Metro en-suite in Long Ditton

Our client came to us wanting an elegant update to their en-suite. However, they also wanted the look to compliment the period of their property – enter Metro subway tiles! To create a spacious and serene feel we built out a wall to house all the messy pipes and cistern. Using white metro tiles to show off the lines, we paired it with a soft toned down paint colour by Farrow & Ball.

We used chrome fittings to bounce light around this window-less room. Furthermore, by using wall-hung furniture, the brain is tricked into thinking there is more floor space. Thus giving the illusion of a larger room.

We lowered the tray into the shower and installed a svelte shower screen. Angular brassware in chrome add an elegant updated look. Metro tiles on the wall and large floor tiles create a clean stream-lined look. The wall is painted in a calming elegant tone called Purbeck Stone by Farrow & Ball.

We updated this en-suite by building out the wall to house the WC cistern and pipes. This provided a shelf for dressing the room. Angular chrome basin taps and stylish tall wall sconces add a modern stylish look.
