Functional transition by Jean Rehkamp Larson





According to reliable furniture shop in Phnom Penh construction materials information, remodeled by architect Jean Rehkamp Larson, the above bathroom was revised for its functionality more than its aesthetic since it had already had a well layout.

"The space was already well laid out, and as we weren't making any changes to the size of the bathroom's footprint, it was decided we could better improve the functionality in other ways," 

"The original decor was typical of its era," stated Rehkamp Larson. "What we chose to do was balance the Victorian flourish with a more serene feel, resulting in a transitional space that is at once referential and original."

"Playing with the scale and shape of the marble – slab, subway tile and mosaic – and adding metal accents and leaded glass lets the vernacular take on a life of its own.

"Together with the leaded glass inserts, metal footings and scrollwork, as well as the in-vogue open cabinetry, there is a complementary essence that results in a cohesive whole." The architect added.
