Opening out to a leafy courtyard, this Perth bathroom is elegant in its simplicity.
THE BRIEF
she delivered beautiful
interiorsfor their previous
apartment, so when the
owners of this perth home
decided to build they
contacted Judith barrett-
lennard and askedher to
collaborate on the project
with architect John collière.
themaster bathroomwas
to be a refined and serene
spacethat offered a subtle
nod to the family’s love
of the tropics.DESIGN
APPROACH
this bathroom opens out
toa private courtyard
filled with greenery that
transports the owners back
to the tropics, where they
once lived. Fundamental to
Judith’s design was that the
space have a focal point,
which she has created via
a neat blade wall that
framesthe bathroom’s
eyecatching scallop light
and freestanding bath.
“i love the softness and
glamour the light brings,”
shesays, “and its shell
shape works in well with the
tropical aesthetic at play.”>
