Spa inspired bathrooms
Dulwich Village, London, SE21
Overview
Ailis and Steve, a young professional couple with two children, sought two new bathrooms that would offer a calming retreat from daily stresses.
Their renovation journey
1. Plan
Before coming to Beams, Ailis and Steve had shopped around and not found a design that they were happy with from competitors. So, they shared their vision with us and we listened closely. They met with one of our designers while Brooke developed a detailed quote and outlined a clear roadmap to bring their dream bathrooms to life as efficiently as possible. Once they were happy with the proposal, Brooke coordinated a site survey to prepare them for the rest of design and build phases.
2. Design
Ailis and Steve wanted a welcoming, homely bathroom rather than a mere utility space. After three design calls, they achieved two calming, spa-inspired spaces perfectly tailored to their lifestyle and budget.
3. Build
We paired Ailis and Steve with Matt, a builder from our Beams network. Matt’s a bathroom specialist, who has completed 37 bathrooms in the last 10 years (including one for the founder of Soho House). Matt and his team meticulously crafted every intricate detail, and were “a joy” to have around the house.
The layout
Despite challenges like angled walls and a disjointed shower, our designer Simon reimagined the layout by expanding the shower aperture to accommodate both a walk-in shower and a freestanding bathtub.
The aesthetic
The small upstairs bathroom, previously stark and clinical, now features a warm and inviting palette alongside a thoughtfully redesigned layout that optimises the available space.
The primary bathroom combines classic and modern elements, showcasing bold aquatic-inspired tiling and minimalist fixtures to create a tranquil place for relaxation.
Build support
Ryan, the project’s Beams Build Advisor played a crucial role in problem-solving, ensuring quality and keeping the project on track. When the customer chose to protect the oiled wood vanity in the primary bathroom, Ryan coordinated the installation of a custom Corian top, adding durability while preserving its aesthetic.
Zero landfill impact achieved during build by maintaining a 100% waste recycling policy
