Dulux’s Colour of the Year is a major event in the interiors world, setting the tone for trends over the next 12 months. This year’s shade, True Joy, is a vibrant yellow designed to add a bright pop of colour and a sense of optimism to your space. For those looking to incorporate this look into their bathroom, Roca’s Nu brassware in Honey Yellow is the perfect match.

The Dome handle embraces a rounded and organic form, creating a soothing and inviting appeal.

Studio Inma Bermúdez, in collaboration with Roca, designed the Nu collection to bring a burst of colour and character to your bathroom. With Nu, you can either add a vibrant touch to a neutral space or go bold and let it inspire a full colour scheme – the choice is yours.

What’s more, Nu is designed to make you smile! As you tilt the handle to turn on the tap, a charming surprise is revealed: red and blue dots indicating hot and cold water form a playful smiling face. Paired with the vibrant yellow finish, the Nu ‘smile’ brings an extra dose of joy to your daily routine!

Another standout feature of Roca’s Nu collection is the wide variety of handle options available. Each handle design has its own unique personality, adding a touch of individuality to your bathroom. The Pin handle, with its thin and elongated design, evokes a sense of grace and poise, reminiscent of a bird ready to take flight. On the other hand, the Dome handle embraces a rounded and organic form, creating a soothing and inviting appeal. Meanwhile, the Stripes handle draws inspiration from the grooved knobs found on vintage stereos, adding a nostalgic charm to your taps.

Perched on the banks of Regent’s Canal, Little Venice sees the transformation of an antiquated bathroom into an eclectic pink and green sanctuary, as envisioned by the C.P. Hart Design team through its award-winning Design Service.

C.P. Hart
C.P. Hart

The Specification

The bathroom of Little Venice is an intimate space that required careful design consideration to fully optimise the floor plan. Working in close collaboration with the owner, the C.P. Hart Design team specified a generous inset bath with an integrated shower, a reduced-depth vanity unit and mirror cabinet for ample storage, and a wall-hung WC mounted beneath decorative niches.

Brushed Gold brassware features throughout the bathroom, all specified from C.P. Hart’s exclusive and highly sought-after Epoch collection. In the shower, a three-way diverter controls the overhead shower, hand shower, and bath filler. The Epoch wall-mounted mixer was chosen for the basin, installed above the Cielo Shui Washbowl in ‘Muschio’ to free space on the Cubik vanity.

“We boxed out the back wall to give the impression of a more open space,” explains the designers. “This allowed the Cielo Oval mirror cabinet to sit on the wall without infringing on the basin, whilst also creating a distinct separation for the ‘White’ Luminous Lume tiles and providing a ledge for accessories.”

The Result

“To add more depth and visual interest, we replaced the ‘White’ Luminous Lume tiles with their ‘Green’ counterparts in each niche,” shares the team. “Both the niches and Astro Tacoma Twin light, installed above the mirror cabinet, are dimmable – the perfect year-round ambience setter.”

“The owner originally briefed a checkerboard floor, though upon review of the 3D visuals, we decided the black and white pattern would prove too strong a contrast against the bathroom’s finishes. Instead, we opted for softer stone-effect grey and cream checked tiles, boasting a similar weathered aesthetic to the wall tiling.”

Farrow & Ball’s ‘Middleton Pink’ finishes the bathroom with playful charm.

Bathrooms are one of the most essential spaces in any home, the focal point for relaxation as well as self-care. Beyond functionality, the aesthetics and comfort of your bathroom can significantly influence your mood and daily routine. This is where choosing the right bathroom furniture becomes crucial. However, with the plethora of options available, selecting the ideal pieces can be overwhelming. In this guide, Natalie Bird, Marketing Manager of Roca UK, provides a simple three-point checklist to help you navigate the process.

Step one: Assess your space

To begin, it is vital to assess the available space in your bathroom. Its size and layout will determine what furniture will fit comfortably without making the room feel cramped. Start by measuring the dimensions of your bathroom, including the floor space and the height of the walls. Consider any alcoves, nooks or protruding walls that could affect the placement of furniture. Mark on a plan the toilet, shower and basin, as these are the fixed points around which furniture must fit. Doors and windows can also limit where you place furniture, so ensure there’s enough clearance for doors to open and close and that windows aren’t obstructed. Additionally, evaluate your vertical space – tall cabinets or shelving units can be a great way to add storage without taking up too much floor space.

Roca

Step two: Determine your storage needs

Before choosing any pieces, it’s important to think about what you need to store and how much space you require. Start by identifying the shortcomings of your current bathroom set-up. Are your toiletries cluttered on the counter? Do you lack space for towels? Understanding these issues will guide you in selecting the right furniture. For instance, vanity units which combine a basin with storage space underneath are excellent for storing everyday items like toiletries, cleaning products and grooming tools. Roca’s Victoria-N range has a wide choice of vanity units with two or three drawers and in widths from 600mm to 1200mm.

In addition, make use of all wall space, including above the bath or toilet. Wall cabinets are perfect for storing items you don’t use daily but want within easy reach, such as medications or spare toilet paper. Also, think about shelving units, which are ideal for displaying decorative items or keeping towels handy. Finally, tall, narrow cabinets provide significant storage without taking up too much floor space – the Extra column unit coordinates with the Victoria-N range and is 1500mm high, so offers plenty of useful storage.

Step three: Focus on style and aesthetics

Storage is a highly functional element in the bathroom but that doesn’t mean it can’t also bring something to the look of the space. It’s important to focus on the aesthetics of the pieces you choose and ensure they align with the rest of the bathroom. Whether your bathroom is modern, traditional or somewhere in between, your furniture should both complement and enhance that style. Fortunately, where once bathroom furniture used to come only in timber-effect or white, there are now a whole host of colours and finishes to choose from. For example, the Victoria-N range is available in Sage Green, Light Ash and Walnut melamine, or Matt White or Onyx lacquer. Plus, the integrated handle and the furniture are the same colour for a cohesive look.

Roca’s new Victoria-N vanity unit is available with two or three drawers and in five widths: 600mm, 700mm, 800mm, 1000mm, 1200mm. It pairs with the Extra column unit 1500 x 350mm and 750 x 350mm narrow-depth unit.

In the age of wellness, discerning consumers seek solutions that not only align with their pursuit of a healthier lifestyle but also effortlessly cater to their refined sense of aesthetic.

GROHE Rainshower Aqua Pure

With the new Rainshower Aqua Pure, GROHE SPA has expanded its portfolio by introducing a firstclass shower solution that meets these demands as it embodies the sub-brand’s essence of “Salus per aquam” (Latin for “Health through Water”). The new exposed shower system transforms the bathroom into a regenerative space and additionally makes a striking design statement with bold yet minimalist lines. It features an innovative filter that is invisibly integrated into the thermostat and purifies the hand-shower water of chlorine and subsequent odours making the water exceptionally gentle on skin and hair and fostering a genuine sense of well-being.

GROHE Rainshower Aqua Pure

Marrying this innovative functionality with the shower’s clean design, the SmartControl thermostat boasts seamlessly recessed metal operation buttons that discreetly emerge from the housing when activated. The knurled texture of the thermostat buttons adds a tactile dimension, augmenting the visual and sensory experience while also emphasising intuitive functionality.

GROHE Rainshower Aqua Pure

Designed for a moment of profound well-being

Contributing to the transformation of the bathroom into a serene home spa, GROHE Rainshower Aqua Pure further elevates the wellness experience thanks to a generous head shower. Available in round form, with a diameter of 360mm, or rectangular form, measuring 400mm × 230mm, it completely envelops the user. It offers the choice of two distinct spray patterns: Rain, reminiscent of a soothing summer rain, or ActiveRain, designed for both shampoo rinsing and invigorating massages. The hand shower enables the individualisation of the experience with three different spray variants: Rain, Active Massage—a pulsating spray—and Rain+, which blends air and water for pure relaxation of body and soul. The different spray patterns and the head and hand showers are effortlessly orchestrated using the SmartControl thermostat, which facilitates seamless adjustments of temperature and flow. It enables users to increase the volume from Eco to Full Flow, or to dial it down, with a simple twist of the button, and even allows them to save personal settings for future indulgence.

GROHE Rainshower Aqua Pure

Versatile options for bespoke spaces

GROHE Rainshower Aqua Pure is available across the palette of the GROHE Colours Collection, empowering a tailored design vision. For the chrome version, architects and designers can select between white and black acrylic glass spray faces for the hand and head showers as well as the safety glass on the thermostat. All other colours come with black glass accents. The shower system can be complemented with a shelf made of high-quality safety glass and metal. It is adjustable in height, offering additional storage space while also enhancing the shower’s aesthetics. Thanks to this customisable design versatility, GROHE Rainshower Aqua Pure extends the reach of the high-quality GROHE SPA portfolio and matches perfectly with other GROHE SPA lines like GROHE Allure—for a harmonious, coordinated space that emanates calmness and serenity.

Weightless, powerful, refreshing: Serenity Sky from Dornbracht promises therapeutic water experiences. The new rain panel will be available with two or five flow modes from July 2024, and combines different principles in one product. Not only does this ensure complete and utter relaxation, but it also supports physical and mental wellbeing – fully in keeping with the motto “Follow Your Bliss”.

Dornbracht
Dornbracht

Self-Care at Home

For Serenity Sky, Dornbracht worked closely together with Dr Christoph Stumpe. The head of the famous Shen Men Institute in Düsseldorf and an expert on Traditional Chinese Medicine played a vital role in developing the different flow modes. The standard variant of Serenity Sky, also available as a FlowReduce version with a reduced flow rate, includes Purify Rain and Full Rain. With Full Rain, the droplets fall gently and extensively. They fully cover the body, leaving only the face free of water. Purify Rain, on the other hand, impresses with a powerful jet of water for efficient cleansing and hair washing.

Dornbracht

The enhanced variant, Serenity Sky+, has three additional flow modes: Laminar Flow, a concentrated and powerful jet of water that covers the skin gently and evenly. It is deeply warming but can also be used for cool Kneipp affusions to boost the metabolism and strengthen the cardiovascular system. Aquapressure Flow is used specifically for localised massaging of the shoulders and neck area. The solid and forceful water jet can help to release tension, reduce stress, and alleviate headaches. Cool Mist, on the other hand, produces a spray mist of tiny droplets that refreshes and revitalises. Thus, the rain panel from Dornbracht combines in one product principles from Kneipp therapy, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and wellbeing research.

Dornbracht
Dornbracht

Light, and a Choice of Finishes Provide Numerous Opportunities for Individualisation

Other opportunities for individualisation are available in addition to the flow modes. If Serenity Sky is chosen with a light gap, different colours can be set to match the mood. Green, for instance, aids creativity, while red proves to be energetic and stimulating. The light can be controlled via any ZigBee-compliant smart home system, or by remote control. Seven finishes – from Chrome, to Champagne (22kt Gold), to Brushed Dark Platinum – also offer numerous options to seamlessly fit into any bathroom design.

Dornbracht

Intelligent Design

Serenity Sky impresses with a compact design that can be integrated into various interior designs. The rain panel created by Sieger Design fits completely flush into the ceiling, with no obvious screw fastenings. Minimised radii and small gap widths also ensure elegance and precision. A specially curated nozzle arrangement reduces water consumption as well.

Dornbracht
Dornbracht

The fascinating interaction of water, light and effect produced by Serenity Sky is fully in keeping with the Dornbracht motto “Follow Your Bliss”: With its spa applications, the Iserlohn-based manufacturer invites users to integrate moments of happiness into everyday life, and substantially improve their quality of life.

Adelise Morgan-Scully, Senior Design Manager at Elementi Cucina has given her insights into the industry. Elementi Cucina was created by our Design Director Katie Lusty. Katie’s life changed suddenly due to devastating personal circumstances and a move back to Wales, from London was necessary. Katie has a wealth of experience in the Interiors industry and set up Elementi Cucina in Cardiff as a one woman show, quickly gaining clients locally with her passion, flair for design and exceptional interpersonal skills. Danni joined shortly after when the projects really started to roll in, a welder by trade, she is the glue of our operation and keeps the wheels turning in the ordering department. Adelise followed 3 years into the business, an award winning, experienced designer and is based covering our London and Southeast Projects.

Elementi Cucina is quite unlike any other interiors company, we are studio based in central Cardiff and Windsor. We travel to meetings on site armed with an array of samples and bring the showroom to our clients, even going so far as to fly them out to Italy to view the production set up and select their finishes and visit the stone yards in the UK to personally hand select their beautiful granite or marble stone cladding.

We predominantly work with developers, interior designers and architects and have built the business on repeat clients and recommendations. We focus on these relationships whole heartedly, developing them into friendships thus making work lots of fun and not really seem like work at all. This gives us freedom and keeps overheads low allowing us to be exceptionally competitive in our pricing. Personally, overseeing each project and working closely with our clients and their clients the end users too.

Elementi Cucina

What are the origins of the business?

The brand Elementi Cucina is very much based around stunning high end Italian Design, when Elementi Cucina was in its infancy Katie wanted to create a design team that were highly skilled and experienced giving our clients a luxury service and making the project experience with us a seamless and enjoyable one. Relationships over her vast career in the industry and her experience were the key to this, in securing the right partners to work with to give our clients the choice, quality and stunning interior species from concept to completion.

Elementi Cucina

How do your products and services enhance interior design projects?

Due to being a completely independent company we can supply and create totally individual interiors, tailored to the clients wants and desires perfectly. An example of this was a recent project in Dorset. The client came to us with the following brief – ‘I want a truly bespoke reclaimed wood and galvanised steel kitchen, reminiscent of outback buildings back home in Australia,’ before adding ‘Fully loaded with uber cool Wolf & Sub-Zero appliances, concrete worktops and a walk-in larder’. The brief was detailed yet open to Katie’s creative input in terms of colours, finishes and the small yet important details, such as the seating area, integrated chopping blocks and storage configuration. The client had been to numerous Interior design companies before approaching Elementi Cucina and was told the same thing ‘Sorry we can’t do that’ Katie Lusty, Design Director at Elementi Cucina, on meeting the client said ‘Hell yeah! We can do that’ and then set about designing and creating a truly unique, showstopping kitchen, with the client on board for the entire wild ride from conception to completion. The kitchen won a national award and truly showcases just how bespoke you can go.

Elementi Cucina

What value does your specialist sector add to the industry?

We believe that with a combined 45+ years in the industry, Adelise & Katie, bring a wealth of experience and knowledge to each project, we ensure that we keep up to date with the current trends, technical innovations and bring these to our clients creating beautiful yet well thought out and workable interior spaces.

Elementi Cucina

How do you work with interior designers?

We often get involved in project at an early stage and love working and collaborating with Interior Designers and adore the fact they come back to us time and time again, forming lasting relationships and friendships too! We truly do collaborate in terms of working together to creatively fuse together ideas and create functional spaces for our joint clients to enjoy for years to come.

Elementi Cucina

What has been your most significant company highlight or success from the past year?

This would have to be us winning a prestigious design award for the truly unique project Homestead Farm. It was a real honour to be not only nominated as a finalist but to win the award and get recognition for the hard work as an all-female team. It really did boost us all and we are so proud of what has been achieved with Elementi Cucina since we started 8 years ago.

Elementi Cucina

What are the latest trends you’ve noticed in your client’s requests?

Our recent trip to the Milan 2024 design fair kept us up to date with the up and coming trends, we even took clients out to Italy with us to the fair, there were some absolutely amazing new innovations which our clients are now including within their stunning Welsh new build project, the most stunning is a beautiful timber wall with a hidden door… which we predict will be huge in coming years, it was so technically brilliant yet, sleek discreet and looks beautiful!

Elementi Cucina

How do you see the interior design industry evolving in the year ahead?

Although recent years have been challenging with the housing market, were seeing a strong growth starting to come back this year, we are constantly evolving as a company and introducing new innovations for our discerning clients. We believe the industry is a constantly evolving one and the trends from our Milan trip are now coming through to the market, with deep rich burgundy colours with stunning textured woods, giving an atmospheric and tactile look to interiors in the coming years.

Elementi Cucina

Is there anything new you are excited to be working on?

Absolutely we have recently introduced some fantastic new Italian lines to our ranges, including Kitchens, Wardrobes, Bathrooms, stunning new innovative Stones and even Garden Kitchens! We’re using all of them on new projects and can’t wait to see the first installs coming up soon, watch this space…
