All in raw

 

As successful furniture shop in Cambodia construction materials informed, with many material palettes to choose from in term of designing a room, architect Jay Hargrave and designer Joy Kling decided that the featured bathroom should go with raw materials, specifically concrete.

From the external wall to wet area floor, concrete was used as the main material. The most notable concrete work in the bathroom, however, was the bathtub.

"The tub, which was poured on site, is sympathetic to the raw materials in the suite," said the designer. "It sits within a natural draining bed of river rocks that give the bathroom a very Zen-like feel."

Nonetheless, the space was created with other minor yet efficient material palette as well to avoid excessive concrete vibe in the room. 

"Lining the entire room in concrete could have been overwhelming," stated Hargrave. "The glass tiles introduce a cool, refreshing, reflective material to the palette. Similar tiles form a band across the wall in the shower room."
