We already mentioned that we pay special attention to bathrooms. If you analyze entire apartment, these are the interiors requiring the biggest money investment per square meter. Some of you may ask is that really the case. Well, you need to consider the fact that usually all of bathroom walls are finished with tiles and their prices can really vary depending on design, country of origin and size. On top of that, you need to install ceramic sanitary elements and durable fittings. All of that can get pricy if you look for a good quality or you really want something trendy.

Speaking about trends, we see them come and go. Exactly for this reason, we propose to our Clients to invest in materials that are timeless and blend them with some of their absolute favorite selections. In small bathrooms, which is the case of most of apartments (less frequently in one-family houses); a great option is to go with a light-toned large tile. It not only makes the space visually bigger, but also; when contrasted with warmer color; results in a very balanced visual composition. This family bathroom in Grzegórzki is a perfect example of this symbiosis represented by whitish Tau Ceramics and stunning Flaviker wood alike tile.

Beautiful materials can stand on their one, but as long as we design for people, we prioritize functionality. This is how we came up with Ventana Sur rules for bathroom design that we try to follow: 1. If it’s intimate or not that aesthetical per se, it should not stand out; 2. Emphasize what’s beautiful 3. Always add accent color/material. In our October posts, we will talk more these guidelines, but below you can already check out how they look applied in this cozy bathroom.

Minimalist furniture very often attract our eyes. But, let’s be honest – when you live with your family, you really need some storage space and this also applies to bathroom. This week we want to show you how we arranged a large interior to be shared by a family of 4.

At Ventana Sur Studio we always take time to listen, listen and once again listen to our Clients. Ultimately, they will live in the spaces we design and exactly this is why we really want to accommodate their needs. Our owners had a defined aesthetic tastes while always emphasized their interiors had to be truly practical. The first step for us was to create a designated space for all the items that are normally stored in a bathroom. For this purpose, we designed spacious cabinets to fit towels, hygienic essentials and cosmetics. Basin unit also plays its part and hides an all in one combo washer dryer.

This space was also ideal for one of our favorite actors in interiors – mosaic tiles. These days there’s such an abundance of choice that you may feel overwhelmed. Simple tip from Ventana Sur Studio is to go with your heart! If you fell in love with some ceramics form the first sight; yet have doubts how they will look like in your interior; a hyperrealistic 3d visualization can help you out in making your final decision. We definitely say “yes” to this gorgeous décor statement from @tauceramica_official!

The time has come! You get your keys to a new apartment and everything looks pretty standard until…you get to measure the space. Sometimes it turns out what was supposed to be a 4,5 sqm bathroom ends up in 4,3 and this really makes a difference. This was the case of this project. Very early on, we found out that only with precise measurements we could fit what was essential and decide on nice-to-haves of our Clients.

Exactly for this reason, we always recommend to confirm the actual size of rooms on-site. Only this way you can select a specific washing machine with a dryer and a custom built cabinet to fit it into.

However, is there any way to gain extra cm in a reduced space? Of course, interior design professionals have some well-studied options in hand! Big mirrors are definitely at the top of the list, but remember that ideally you should get there a reflection of something visually attractive.  In a small bathroom, it can be a bathtub area accentuated with original tiles. We really love how we obtained this effect with glossy ceramics from Spanish Equipe brand. Not only they “add extra cm” with their shine, but also create a mosaic with their natural imperfections.

When we met these clients, we knew from day one this project would be exciting! A globetrotter couple with open mind to do whatever they dream of while at the same time bringing to the table so much of their personality and ideas. The plan was to design their living space in a 10-year old log house.

One of the first spaces that needed immediate attention was the bathroom. The goal here was to create a unique space where both masculine and feminine characters would be represented. Another key element was clients’ love to Balinese baths, spaces focused on relax and built with natural materials, light and greenery.

Ezequiel Suarez, Ventana Sur Studio’s main architect, made an early stage sketch showing a free standing tub on a wooden deck and it clicked. The softness of wood was asking for a contrast, a masculine accent of the space. That is how the main wall received a stone finishing. In this surrounding, a walk-in shower and stone sinks blended in harmoniously.
