Many of the bathroom’s stand-out elements
were custom designed by Bonham Interiors.
“We created the cabinets in two types of
veneer and used mirror-fronted drawers to further optimise light play. The custom handles are
gold, too, as are most fixtures in the room.
“Together with a crisp, sparkling appeal, the
owners wanted touches of wood in the design,”
says Bonham. “To this end, I designed the vanity
with an external frame in ebony – this together
with a charcoal strip around the narrow window
are the only dark tones in the room.”
The Bisazza sink was imported especially for

the project and this has faceted edges – a look
carried through by Bonham on the marble countertop and even the mirrored drawer fronts. The
vanity, together with a tall cabinet in the same
finishes by the shower, provides ample storage.
LED downlights were chosen for their
accurate colour rendering, thus increasing the
visible detail of the veining in the marble floors.
The Diamond Ring chandelier, another sparkling feature, is made from hand-cut rock crystal.
“The project is rich in detail. For example,
all lines agree perfectly in the shower, and the
mosaic til e runs right into the window niche.”

Facing page: With facilities shuffled
around but services remaining in
the same place, this project required
massive behind the scenes work
to achieve its glamorous aesthetic.
Even lining up the shower stall
ceiling tiles and brass shower stall
trim was an involved task.
Top and above: A bevelled edge on
the basin is echoed in the faceted
mirror drawer fronts and on the
benchtop. And even the mirror frame
and tapware are finished in gold.
