Welcome to a journey through the art of blending the timeless charm of classic designs with the bold spirit of modern aesthetics. Home design is not just about creating spaces; it’s about weaving stories and memories, honouring the past, and embracing the future.

THE TIMELESS APPEAL OF CLASSICS

Imagine the understated elegance of a classic Kiwi bungalow or a villa – these architectural styles are more than just structures; they are narratives of history and comfort. They remind us of a simpler time, filled with warmth and familiarity.

THE MODERN TWIST

Now, let’s juxtapose that with the modern. Think of the dynamic energy of a New York Loft. It’s not just a living space; it’s an expression of urban vibrancy, of a life lived on the edge yet wrapped in comfort. This is where classic character meets contemporary innovation.

TRANSFORMING FUNCTIONAL SPACES INTO PERSONAL SANCTUARIES

Our focus today is on one of the most intimate spaces in your home – the bathroom. Gone are the days when bathrooms were merely functional. Today, they are personal sanctuaries, reflections of taste and lifestyle.

The Waterware LIBERTY TAPWARE RANGE: Where Elegance Meets Functionality

Enter Waterware’s Liberty tapware range. This collection is a perfect exemplar of how traditional elegance can meet modern-day functionality. It’s not just about the tapware; it’s about setting a theme for your bathroom.

FROM CHROME TO PATINA – A SYMONY OF FINISHES

The Liberty range offers a symphony of finishes. From bright chrome that echoes the grandeur of classic villas to softer patinas like Oil Rubbed Bronze and Aged Iron that whisper tales of understated elegance. And let’s not forget the exciting additions on the horizon – Brushed Nickel and Vintage Bronze, set to redefine bathroom aesthetics.

CHALLENGING TRADITIONAL NORMS

We are challenging norms – who says high shine is the only marker of cleanliness? Our upcoming matte glazes and finishes on traditional items like toilets and baths are setting new trends.

Introducing: The BOSTON TOILET COLLECTION and DORSET FREE STANDING BATH

Imagine the Boston Toilet collection in a glossy traditional finish or a sleek matte, the choice is yours. The Dorset freestanding bath, with its modern take on the classic roll-top, is a statement piece that combines luxury with comfort.

WESTMINSTER WALL HUNG VANITIES: A NOD TO THE PAST

Our Westminster Wall Hung Vanities in muted pastel satin finishes are a nod to the past, yet firmly rooted in the present. These pieces are more than just bathroom furniture; they are heirlooms in the making.

YOUR HOME, YOUR STORY

Remember, your home is your canvas, and every choice you make is a brushstroke in the story you are creating. So, let’s blend the old with the new, the classic with the contemporary, and create spaces that are not just aesthetically pleasing but are also deeply personal and reflective of your journey.

Join us in this exploration of style, comfort, and personal expression. Welcome to the world of classic character, reimagined for the modern homeowner.
