Sense of style by Martin Potter

 

As successful furniture shop in Cambodia construction materials informed, despite a formal and modest approach towards the era of the house, the featured powder room took its own cue and made its own statement with slightly different design from the rest of the house.

"The bathroom services a guest bedroom, which has a traditional red toile de Jouy wall-covering. To link the two spaces, wallpaper with a similar design was chosen, but the pattern in the bathroom, designed by Sheila Bridges, depicts modern alternatives to the pastoral scenes of the 1700s," stated Potter.

"The glass shower enclosure was a design necessity in maximizing space – as well as serving to allow light from the newly installed skylight to enter the bathroom," the designer said.

"We were able to incorporate the owner's request for marble though, in the form of mosaic panels on the walled sides and as a surround – maintaining a link to the period aesthetic that works so well in the other rooms." He added.
