The white-on-white bathroom aesthetic has taken a backseat, with designers making bold, buoyant colour decisions for bathroom specification.

Once perhaps considered a solely functional space, the modern bathroom is now an opportunity for expression, with specifiers looking to create environments that exude personality and promote wellbeing.

Injecting colour into the bathroom is the perfect way to create a space that evokes emotion, individually and make a design statement. With something for everyone, that is exactly what the Bathroom Brands Group is offering across its extensive product portfolio. Spanning its product library of ceramics, furniture and brassware, specifiers can select from a multitude of rich earthy tones, pops of vibrancy or cool neutrals to suit any interiors scheme.

Ceramics

The Beck collection sees the introduction of colourful ceramics to the Crosswater product library. The wall-hung basin design is the ideal shape and size for bathrooms short on space, created specifically with cloakrooms in mind. Beck’s floating design ensures less floor space is used, helping to create the illusion of a bigger room.

Available in four distinctive colourways including; Matt Green, Matt Pink, Matt Black, Matt White and Gloss White - each provides a complementary shade for any scheme. Every basin is crafted from fine fire clay ceramic and is supplied with all the wall fixings for easy installation. Also available in three size configurations, they are easily suited to bathrooms both big and small.

Furniture

Crosswater’s first furniture unit specifically designed for cloakrooms has recently been released and offers a multitude of design-led colourways for specifiers. Inspired by current material and home decoration trends, Alo provides a bathroom storage solution to tie in with the rest of the home. The striking selection of finishes, including unique Rattan options, make this the perfect choice for designers. Go bold with Soft Clay, keep it classic with White, or bring the outside in with Rattan.

With a compact width of 400mm, these wall-hung vanity units are not only visually pleasing, but also great for providing the illusion that there is much more space available in smaller bathrooms.

The Alo unit’s feature an anti-bacterial, water-resistant finish, along with a pull to open, soft close hinged door and adjustable internal shelf to allow for personalised storage.

These pre-assembled units are available in twelve distinct finishes including ‘Rattan and Black’ and ‘Rattan and White’, authentic oaks, and block colour options, along with three choices of handles to complement each unit’s style. Each unit also comes with an inset basin and single tap hole, that can either be left or right-handed depending on preference. This basin is available in either white or black ceramic.

Brassware

Two new finishes are joining Crosswater’s iconic MPRO Brassware collection…

With colour at the heart of the range, the premium MPRO collection offers unique and luxurious brassware for every bathroom style and scheme. A result of expert design and beautifully meticulous craftsmanship, MPRO uses only the finest components and materials to deliver unmatched flow performance, safety, and water efficiency.

Joining the existing finishes, the stunning new Brushed Bronze and Slate collections are inspired by shades found organically in the natural world. These tranquil tones promote warmth and restoration in both modern and traditional bathroom schemes.

Brushed Bronze provides a warm and comforting hue, reminiscent of a Saharan sunset. Designed to pair effortlessly with a wide range of bathroom styles, the unique tone is guaranteed to instantly add a luxurious feel to any space. Whilst the cooler shade, Slate offers a high contrast yet more subdued finish to Matt Black. The versatile colour features a subtle brushed effect - providing on-trend texture and contrast to both high-gloss and matt finish bathroom products.

The MPRO collection puts innovation at the forefront of brassware design. Stylish and versatile, MPRO seamlessly fuses function with precision to deliver a complete range of brassware that enhances the basin, bath, and shower, putting forward durable, cutting-edge solutions that meet the demands of today’s contemporary bathrooms.

Bespoke by Burlington

Bathroom Brands Group’s colourful product portfolio is quickly translating to specification orders. Vintage bathroom brand Burlington offers a spectrum of vintage, ice cream inspired colour ways in their traditional bathroom basins.

Picked for the immaculate bathrooms at The Hoxton, Brussels, its distinctive, retro 1970s-style design is elevated with 212 Confetti Pink basins from Bespoke by Burlington. A unique edit of hand-decorated and coloured ceramics, the brand offers a twist on traditional bathroom design by replacing classic white with covetable colours, floral patterns and unique personalisation that draw inspiration from fashion, nature, and famous eras of design.

“We were very excited to work with the Ennismore design team on the full international specification. The Hoxton, Brussels takes its cues from the 1970s and the vibrant but relaxing aesthetic of Bespoke by Burlington’s Confetti Pink has created a bathroom which is less amenity and more luxury.” David Balmer – Senior Projects Consultant at Bathroom Brands Group.

The joy of a fantastic hotel bathroom can never be underestimated, and the addition of Confetti Pink Bespoke by Burlington basins adds to the retro feel and laid-back charm that this stylish new opening has to offer the Belgian capital.

In March 2023, two new ceramic colours joined the Bespoke by Burlington collection – Enchanted Blue and Cosmic Green. Enchanted Blue reimagines Clair De Lune Blue, a colour celebrated in luxe 1930s bathrooms - this soft powder blue colour choice delivers style and serenity to any space. Whereas Cosmic Green draws inspiration from the fashionable mint green bathrooms of the 1950s, expressing charm and versatility, and complementing a range of bathroom styles and designs.

Bespoke by Burlington has a range of Edwardian basins, as well as a comprehensive collection of WCs. Each piece is made to order by skilled craft workers in Staffordshire, England, using the finest materials.
