A relaxing bathroom design by Amy Gardner and Jennifer Gilmer

Provided by notable furniture in Cambodia construction materials, designed by Architect Amy Gardner and designer Jennifer Gilmer, the featured bathroom achieves a spa-like retreat with a modern-day elements.

The starting point is the use of an eccentric natural stone ‘Verde Bamboo Granite’.

"This has distinctive, dark veins, reminiscent of bamboo in silhouette – hence the name," said Gilmer. "We used the stone as a feature wall, and for greater effect, combined it with tiles featuring cross sections of bamboo set in a dark brown resin. These bamboo and resin tiles are repeated above the main bathroom basin."

"Reclaimed oak floors on the lower level, a stained oak tub surround and door and window frames are just some of the wood features in the bathroom," stated Gardner. "Stained oak shelves at various levels provide a cohesive design element."

"The lower windows are frosted but the upper panes are clear glass," she added. "Looking out gives you the sense of bathing outdoors – and the sound of the rain shower adds to this impression."
