Above: The master suite is a chip off the same
concrete block as the family bathroom – with
concrete-look tiled surfaces predominating,
even running into the multiple wall niches in
this space. High windows admit light into the
bathroom without compromising privacy, while
an understated glass shower wall keeps water
contained without impacting the sense of space.

similar-size minimalist mirror panels are
placed playfully and randomly. Their dis-
tinct reflections of the monochromatic
wall finishes create a camouflaged effect.
The owner-designer also introduced
multiple lighting sources to provide for a
different ambience for every occasion.
“Complementing the main bathroom,
the open-style yet private ensuite offers all
the essential requirements for the adjoin-
ing master bedroom while a separate toilet
cubicle provides necessary privacy with-
out compromising the connection between
the bedroom and ensuite,” says Collins.
“The finishes in the ensuite echo those
of the family bathroom, with concrete-look
tiles, frameless mirrors, wall-hung timber
veneer drawers and a similar concrete
vanity benchtop. We wanted an harmoni-
ous relationship between the two spaces.”
The ensuite’s high picture windows
allow for plenty of natural light while
keeping the room private without the need
for window furnishings. The minimalistic
fixed glass shower panel maximises usable
space and adds to the overall spatial effect.
