A Guide to Luxury Bathroom Design

The bathroom is more than just a functional space; it’s a retreat, a place for relaxation and rejuvenation. A luxury bathroom harmoniously blends elegance and functionality to create a serene sanctuary in your home that caters to your every wellbeing need.

In the design of luxurious bathrooms, each element must be carefully selected to create a space of style and comfort. Whether it’s the subtle glow of ambient lighting or the calming presence of natural elements such as plants and stone, each component plays a vital role in crafting an oasis that soothes the senses and elevates your daily routine.

Here at Patience and Gough, we pride ourselves on creating luxury bathroom designs that are as effortlessly beautiful as they are functional. In this article, we’ll provide a guide to designing a luxury bathroom and unveil how we achieve first class style by combining high-quality materials, elegant design elements and attention to detail.

Materials and colours

The foundation of any luxury bathroom design lies in the choice of materials and colour palette.

At Patience and Gough, our bathroom interior design process begins with an in-depth consultation to understand our client’s preferences. Every material, colour, texture and surface is thoughtfully chosen to create a luxurious and timeless experience.

We carefully curate materials that not only exude beauty but also offer durability and longevity. We believe that investing in high quality materials, including tiles, countertops, fixtures and fittings, is not just about aesthetics, but also about creating a home that will withstand the test of time.

Our approach to colour is equally considered. While classic monochromatic schemes such as soft whites, greys and warm neutrals remain timeless, we also embrace bolder statements by incorporating deep blues, rich emeralds or even opulent metallics.

Space planning and concept sketches

A well-designed bathroom is essential to maximising functionality without compromising on aesthetics.

We begin by assessing the space and its interior design potential. Our goal is to create an effortlessly seamless flow, whether that means a freestanding bathtub as a focal point, an elaborate vanity for a sense of grandeur or a walk-in shower for a spa-like experience. We also consider smart storage innovations such as custom-built cabinetry, hidden shelving and vanities with plentiful drawers to maintain the uninterrupted flow of the bathroom design while offering utmost functionality.

Concept sketches bring our vision to life, illustrating bespoke design solutions and ensuring every detail aligns with our client’s aspirations. These preliminary drawings allow us to refine our bathroom design ideas before moving forward with technical plans.

Bespoke furniture design and product sourcing

True luxury interior design lies in the details, and bespoke elements are at the heart of our designs.

We source only the finest products, collaborating with a global network of artisans and suppliers, ensuring that every item is sourced with precision. From bespoke furniture and harmonious artwork to meticulously considered lighting and exquisitely detailed fabrics, each element is curated to enhance the bathroom design.

Our in-house cabinet-making expertise guarantees bespoke pieces that elevate form and function alike. With the ability to craft fine furniture in-house, these elements are not just components; they are crafted narratives, echoing the tales of homes they adorn.

Project management

A flawless execution is just as crucial as the design itself.

Our dedicated project management ensures that every element of designing a bathroom is carefully overseen, from ideation to final execution. Whether collaborating with established teams or steering the helm in-house, our streamlined approach promises a smooth journey from concept to completion. With a keen eye for detail, rest assured we’ll elevate your space to its very best.

Communication is key throughout this process. We keep our clients informed at every stage, offering peace of mind that their vision is being brought to life with precision and care.

An indulgently beautiful final result

The unveiling of a completed luxury bathroom is always a moment we look forward to.

With our expertise and dedication to excellence, we create bathrooms that are stunning and enduringly timeless. What we deliver is a more than just a space; it’s a sanctuary tailored to our client’s desires. Once a project is complete, our customers step into a space that is not only visually breathtaking but also deeply personal. From the carefully curated materials and colours to the precision of seamlessly integrated storage solutions, every detail is executed to perfection.

In our latest project, we’ve incorporated a stunning waterproof paper featuring a trailing willow design that wraps around the room, perfectly transitioning into the natural travertine tiles used throughout the space in various formats.
