Aleem Kassam and Phyllis Lui of Kalu Interiors bring an elegant palette.
“At Kalu Interiors we’re feeling light and airy heading into summer, inspired by gentle curves and elegant finishes coupled with impactful statement pieces. Here are some of our favourite things to bring your bathroom to the next level.”—Aleem Kassam and Phyllis Lui of Kalu Interiors
Classic is in—and so is terrazzo! We love the Terrazzo Renata series from Ann Sacks, and it’s one of our favourites for instilling a classic yet interesting scheme—especially when accented with the coordinating fluted tile.
The Circuit pendant from Apparatus Studio is a simple statement piece that can add rich, luxe texture to any bathroom. It would be great as a single offset in the space or as a pair flanking a mirror.
We still find ourselves adorning bathrooms with elegant brass tones, but we have also found new applications for them, such as framing glass enclosures and shower doors. But don’t be fooled: these are not your curved gold frames from the ’90s! Today we’re utilizing more modern profiles and unique glass textures.
This new Anthem series from Kohler is oh-so-sexy with its streamlined control system. It comes in a variety of finishes and can accommodate multiple functions for a spa-like showering experience right at home.
This wallcovering from Area Environments captures our mood with its organic pattern and swirling mix of colours.
A neutral base is an opportunity to create a bold accent or feature area through colour, texture, depth, pattern or all of the above! These tiles from Ciot are the perfect example of how to add that note of interest.
The editorial team at Western Living loves nothing more than a perfectly designed space, place or thing: and we’re here to tell you about it. Email us your pitches at [email protected].
