Bathroom International’s Pont Street showroom.
|
Once inside you will discover an immediate sense of calm within a wealth of individual room sets, each designed by a leading interior designer, including such prestigious names as Nina Campbell, Joanna Wood, Ann Boyd, Tessa Kennedy, Fox Linton, Stephen Ryan and Bill Benette. Expelling any myth that design stops at the bathroom, Bathroom International’s welcoming Creative Director Cheryl Gurner explains the absolute breadth of the design inspiration here. “Here at Bathrooms International we open our clients’ eyes to the multiple choices and luxurious products on offer to turn their bathroom into a sanctuary.” The aim of the showroom space is to inspire, surprise and delight, with settings in very different styles to suit any taste and show that bathrooms can be in keeping with the rest of any residential or commercial space. From cutting edge, sculptural shapes to designs with a more traditional aesthetic, Gurner highlights that “Our offer is highly bespoke, which allows us to develop truly unique bathroom designs within any setting.” |
With more than thirty years of experience working on projects across the globe, Gurner has established a reputation as the doyenne of the bathroom industry. She has overseen the supply of bathrooms in the world’s most luxurious private residences and commercial projects, always with a complete understanding of the needs of every individual client and designer to ensure their desires are met and their expectations exceeded. Bathrooms International can be found in the little black book of the world’s leading interior designers, and Gurner often works very closely with such firms as Candy & Candy and Keech Green amongst many others. These creative relationships affirm the company’s place at the heart of the design world, as does the prestigious list of projects that they have supplied: from the UK’s most exclusive development, One Hyde Park, to Hotels including The Burj Al Arab, The Emirates Palace Hotel, The Connaught and Le Manior au Quat Saisons as well as suites at the Dorchester, to name but a few. One thing that becomes clear is the scope of different bathroom projects that are undertaken here. From elegantly appointed urban apartments through to the most prestigious international hotels in the world and increasingly, Gurner notes, bathroom design for super yachts. |
“The luxury yacht market has become more and more prevalent and we have developed this into a specialist area of our business as at the level we work, clients do often own international properties and a yacht and look to our expertise to ensure that every bathroom is exceptional.” Whilst the company is able to list and reference high-profile commercial projects and residential developments, one of the most important aspects of the service at Bathrooms International, says Gurner, is the level of discretion offered to private clients; “The discreet way in which every project is handled is absolutely essential when working with the highest profile private clientele in the world. It is something that our clients appreciate and is just one of the reasons they come back to us time and again.” So, what is next for this prestigious business? “Looking forward to 2011 we are anticipating some really irresistible new product ranges, which we can’t wait to show off.” says Gurner. “We have some great bathroom solution developments in progress, and some beautiful new projects in the pipe line. It’s going to be a dynamic year”. Bathrooms International |
