STONE IN THE BATHROOM

Stone in the Bathroom

Ask The Designer: If you plan to update your bathroom why not consult interiors expert Emily Hyde first for some design advice?

Question:

“I would like a cutting edge really contemporary bathroom, fully tiled, possibly using stone in some areas. The sanitaryware to be wall hung, with a feature whirlpool bath with lighting underneath it. I have been thinking about having a steam shower, with chromatherapy and body jets, but I am concerned that this will cause condensation on the cold tiles. I would also like some sort of blind to cover the window, as it looks out onto the front garden and driveway. I would like to have a twin power socket in a cupboard within the vanity, so I can plug-in my hairdryer, straighteners and so on, but I’m not sure if this is allowed in the UK.”
