The Luxe Factor

22 Feb 2025 CW Team

A bathroom can be luxurious no matter if it is big or small, according to the architects CW spoke to. Here’s how they conceptualise luxury in bathrooms.

Size doesn’t matter

Luxury in bathrooms is a subjective concept, often dictated by the space and volume available, according to Sharmin Wade, Partner & Principal Architect, Studio SB. “We’ve designed luxurious bathrooms tailored to our clients’ needs, including a 200-sq-ft expanse.”

However, she points out that even a smaller-sized bathroom can echo luxury. “Our Metamorphosis project bathroom spanning 45 sq ft also exemplifies understated luxury where the focus is on impeccable materials rather than maximal glamour. Brazilian stone, Italian marble and thoughtfully selected tiles take centre-stage. The bold black accents and tiles on the shower panels add sophistication while subtly brightening the space. The design prioritises elegance and comfort, proving that true luxury lies in the finer details and the thoughtful interplay of materials.”
