- COLOURSAND TEXTURES
Coloursandtextures can be the best way to make an
artisticstatementin a bathroom, whatever its size. “Ambience
canbeenrichedwithdifferent types of materials, such as
hand-paintedwallpaperfor powder rooms, different textured
marblestocreatedrama for the bath and shower areas, and
tilesblendedwithmosaics and glass panels,” says Denise Lau,
CEOofinteriorfurnishing platform colourliving.
“Innovationsin tiles and composite stones are allowing
formorebeautifuloptions than ever before,” adds Timothy
whohighlightsmaterials such as mother or pearl and precious
stonesnowofferingopportunities for luxurious wet-area
options,moreakintoa spa that a personal bathroom.
Interestingly,it’sdeeper shades that are in vogue. And
these are increasinglymatched with similarly dark fixtures or
contrastingbrightandshiny options, the latter the choice
forDenisewhosays,“It’s a trend to match marbles of a
dark palettewith special tap finishes like dark bronze, matt
copperorantiquegold.” Dornbracht and Gessi both have
somestrikingexamples in their current ranges.
There’salsolighting to consider. Ed Ng of AB Concept
suggestshavingoptions. “A bathroom should have two
colourtemperatures:warm for the long, hot baths, and cold
forclaritywhenyouare cutting nails or applying make-up.”不論浴室大小，色彩和材質也是展現藝術個性的最佳媒
介。室內家品平台colourliving總裁Denise Lau說：「我們可
以利用不同種類的材質豐富氛圍，例如化妝室就可用手繪牆
紙，再利用質感不同的雲石增強淋浴或浸浴間的氣派，還有
混搭馬賽克和玻璃飾片的瓷磚等。」
Timothy補充：「瓷磚和複合石材推陳出新，給予更多
漂亮選擇。」他特別提到珍珠母等珍貴石材，讓你的浴室奢
華得像個水療室。
幸好，當下是沉色當道的時代，可配搭的深色設備和
對比強烈的鮮豔或光面款式亦愈來愈多。Denise個人傾向後
者：「現時流行沉色調雲石配深銅、啞銅或古董金色的水龍
頭。」Dornbracht和Gessi的品牌系列中皆有不少突出設計。
要考慮的還有燈光。AB Concept的Ed Ng這樣建議：
「一間浴室應該要有兩種色溫，慢慢享受浸浴時最適宜用暖
色，需要剪指甲或化妝時則適宜用上冷色。」SILVER LINING
