This ensuite in a newly built duplex is a perfect response to its coastal setting.
The design for the bathroom, master bedroom and walk-in-robe combines timeless design elements with modern functionality.
We chose VJ panelling and a coastal-inspired colour palette to create a serene and inviting atmosphere – capturing the essence of a beachside retreat.
The completed master suite offers a peaceful sanctuary for relaxation and rejuvenation – ideally reflecting the homeowner’s desire for a coastal-inspired home.
