ACE Update Design Sense
|December 2025
Each bathroom was built with a specific idea based on its location and use.
-
What is the overarching design inspiration behind the bathrooms and bath fittings?
The first-floor bathroom was designed to be more daring, with more prominent material selections and gold-finished fixtures. The master bathroom kept the original stone on a feature wall, while Gaurav and Ruchi’s master bathroom was created with a younger sensibility in mind, expressed through a black-and-white colour scheme. Bath fittings were chosen for their durability, sophisticated aesthetics, and tactile quality, with FCML and Hansgrohe included throughout the project.
What were the principal materials used in the project?
