Covid-19, Future Hygiene for Luxury Bathroom Design Posted on June 19, 2020June 19, 2020 by Concept Virtual Design At Concept we specialise in luxury bathrooms and have a wealth of experience in sourcing exceptional high end products that ensure hygiene is easily maintained while cementing that statement style. This is an especially important consideration acknowledged by our leading suppliers in light of the current Covid-19 pandemic, which will clearly be around for a long while yet. Hygiene improvements have therefore been a special development for top end brands delivering products for sophisticated bathroom designs. One of our key partners Villeroy and Boch, have developed an intelligent sanitary ware coating called “CeramicPlus” and also “AntiBac” a bacterial protection for easily cared for and clean surfaces. The surface repels residue, while being insensitive to acids and alkalis often found in household cleaners. Liquid immediately beads upon contact with the surface, allowing it to easily roll off into the outlet. Cleaning is quicker, easier, safer. Grohe’s Electronic Basin Taps for bathrooms are another innovation designed to help us improve hygiene while maintaining style in a high end home. This product range showcases their development into a range of non-touch taps, reducing the need to touch surfaces which minimises the spread of germs and bacteria. They’re also a great eco-friendly water saving option, with water flowing only when needed and the sensors alerted. Durable and stylish, these taps offer a great hygienic and stylish addition to a luxury bathroom, an exciting consideration for architects and high end developers as the world continues to battle the Coronavirus pandemic. TOTO’s innovation in hygiene is its shower toilet – the TOTO Washlet. The TOTO Washlet contains a number of features for bringing greater hygiene into the bathroom. Ewater+ is used to clean the ceramic and wand jet with electrolysed water. Premist sprays the toilet bowl with a fine mist of water, reducing the ability for dirt and waste to stick. The Tornado Flush thoroughly cleans the entire toilet bowl and the Cefiontect glaze is easy to clean, smooth and prevents germs from accumulating on the surface of the bowl. Using the TOTO Washlet also reduces the need of toilet paper and provides an environmental benefit as well.

Luxury in Lightness Posted on February 19, 2020February 21, 2020 by Concept Virtual Design In the form of lightness, strength and slim aesthetics comes an exciting new range from Villeroy and Boch, offering versatility and smooth lines to bring straightforward shapes to life. The thin walls of the basins are exquisitely thin yet unrivalled in strength and durability, thanks to the special TitanCeram material they are made from. This material is scratch-resistant and exceptionally hard-wearing, with a contemporary matte stone white finish. The Collaro range offers slim contours in a wide range of sizes and shapes to compliment the design of your bathroom. The vanity basins offer a sophisticated contemporary look, with a spacious feel that provides both luxury and practicality. The design takes inspiration from the latest styles and trends, giving a truly sumptuous modern feel to Collaro range. When it comes to creating a luxurious bathroom, lighting is the crucial factor that will be the making or breaking of the aesthetics. It can make all the difference between just having a bath and having a well-being enhancing, relaxing and decadent soak. Atmospheric lighting adds an authentic ambience to the room that will turn the space into a statement, rather than simply a functional, bathroom. A sleek and sophisticated basin and vanity unit with mirror features exquisite lighting concepts, illuminated vanity unit lighting and coordinated mirror lighting to create an elegantly lit functional space that is a delight to use. The subtle creative lighting is a work of art, where intelligence and functionality create something stunningly simple yet beautiful.
Tailoring Lifestyle To Luxury Posted on January 21, 2020 by Concept Virtual Design Decadence and class. Sophistication and luxury. There is so much scope for designing a space that moves outside the lines, producing an all-enveloping aura within a high end home that oozes both joy in the everyday and a powerful sense of enhanced wellbeing. Creating a statement bathroom requires exceptional attention to detail to ensure that the aesthetics work with functionality. Vanity units can be as beautifully ornate or as strikingly minimalist as needed to create a statement or focal piece, however they still need to function to ensure the space can be kept sleek and the lines of the space maintained. Toiletries and everyday essential items must have the space to be kept in their proper place, so it’s wise to have a vanity unit that compliments lifestyle and the primary function of the room. If the bathroom is more a show piece, not in use every day or not used for washing, facial preparations, etc, then minimalist pieces can beautifully compliment the space without effort required to keep it as such. But where the bathroom needs to function practically and items are regularly used, elegant storage needs to feature in a vanity unit for this purpose. Concept’s talented in house design team think outside the box to create beautifully breathtaking designs that work as both a statement and a functional space. Our unique design style has resulted in being commissioned to work on hundreds of luxury private client and high end new build projects across the country, to the very best standards of craftsmanship, finish and timelessness. To find out more or discuss the requirement for your project, please call us or drop in to our award-winning showroom in Berkshire.
