Above: This walk-in wardrobe, and
a seasonal closet nearby, together
provide over 38m of hanging space
and room for 216 pairs of shoes.
The designer borrowed nearly half
of the area of the original bathroom
footprint and combined this with
an under-utilised linen cupboard to
achieve this closet.

Rather than lowering the high ceilings, the
designer used the horizontal line offered by
2.5m-high doors to create a visual line around
the room in the same black marble seen behind
the tub. This approach brings the sense of the
ceiling height down to scale while retaining the
spacious feel. The same black marble was also
used for the custom frames on the fog-free mir-
rors over the vanities.
Lamarre sectioned off nearly half the space
to accommodate a walk-in closet, incorporating
a redundant linen closet in the adjacent hall-
way. The existing master closet was converted
into a seasonal closet, contributing to the overall
amount of closet space required.
Matching the height of the doors and marble
slab, tall panels of white back-painted glass add
to the list of rich materials. This glass treatment
is repeated as backing in the shower soap niche,
and again as a frame for the feature slab.
Silver-backed glass tiles behind the vanities
add to the sense of luxury while the cascading
crystal chandelier mimics rainfall and creates a
sense of tranquility.
Textured porcelain planked flooring, heated
for comfort, completes the welcoming bathroom.
