✨ Making standard products feel anything but standard…

This stunning family bathroom is a great example of how you can take a standard product and make it completely individual.

At the heart of the room is a Langton Solid Timber Washstand by Bathroom Furniture Makers , in a standard size and the standard colour Prussian Blue. But with the right combination of materials and carefully selected details, it has become a truly bespoke-looking piece.

The transformation comes from the details:
💙 A beautiful worktop sourced from a local stone supplier Oxford stone & Marble
💙 A unique, colourful sit-on basin and striking long-handle tap, specified and supplied by the interior designer Interior Designer Oxfordshire
💙 Wall-mounted tap by Tres Grifería
💙 Mirror by Origins Living
💙 Wall lights by Mullan Lighting
💙 Foundry Porcelain Blue wall tiles by Ca’ Pietra
💙 Carefully blended brass finishes throughout the room

The result? A standard-sized, standard-colour washstand that feels completely unique to this bathroom.

It’s a great reminder that individuality doesn’t always mean bespoke. Sometimes, it’s about knowing how to combine standard products, beautiful materials and unexpected details to create something that feels entirely your own.

All other products for this stunning family bathroom were specified and supplied by InStil Design

An inspiring two-day visit to the Keuco factory.

As a designer at Instil Design, it was a fantastic opportunity to learn more about the products we specify every day and to see the entire process from manufacturing and quality control to packing and shipping. It was also great to meet fellow designers from across the industry and share ideas along the way.

Thank you, Keuco, for the warm welcome and the insightful tour.

A bath is not just for bathing… 😉🛁 Often, it’s the perfect place to unwind, switch off, and enjoy a quiet moment. Who else could spend hours relaxing in this beautiful Bette bath? ✨

A little message arrived;

Steven, we would like to thank you so much for all your help and guidance designing our beautiful ensuite bathroom. We really appreciated the fact that you listened to what we wanted, yet at the same time guided us to make decisions that really elevated the whole look of the room while still keeping within our budget. We cannot thank you enough and are now enjoying the fruits of your design.
Many thanks,
Alison and Stephen

Behind every project is this small, dedicated team 🤗

We work closely together on every design, refining ideas until everything feels right down to the detail, because we have one clear mission: to create high-end, beautiful, personalised and practical spaces that are made to last.

So your bathroom doesn’t become a copy-paste design, but a carefully considered space that not only looks beautiful, but works effortlessly in everyday use.

Sometimes it’s not about adding more.
It’s about taking a step back. 🍃

When less is more, the space has room to breathe.
Soft tones, a calm layout, and a view that does the rest.

Spaces like this don’t just look good, they change how you feel in them.

Seeing it all come together.

This is one of our favourites at the moment, for the calm, almost zen feeling it creates.

There’s a mix of materials, textures and colours, and a slightly less standard layout, all brought together in a way that doesn’t feel overdone. Everything just works.

Designed by Steven Strady.
