Wendy Moore, HB editor in chief

Ingredients

Glossy black subway tiles, Artistic Tile Design

Oversized gilded mirror, Ebay, seek similar at Elements I Love

Freestanding claw foot bath, Cast Iron Baths

‘Chantilly’ chandelier, Cafe Lighting & Living

French doors, seek similar at Bunnings

Method

1. Line the walls floor-to-ceiling with glossy black subway tiles with crisp white grouting

2. Invest in an oversized mirror to lean against the wall next to the bath to add glamour and trick the eye to double the size of the space

3. Install a freestanding white roll top clawfoot bath with plenty of circulation area surrounding it to create a sense of space and serious wow factor

4. Hang a vintage-style chandelier. 

5. Finish with super-elegant French doors, quality period tapware and smart monochrome accessories

“The bath was expensive but I was determined that it be made from iron, not fibreglass.”

Debbie, Homeowner
