Bathroom with a poured plaster vanity above a herringbone brick floor

Material selection, drawings and detailing

Materials, Plans and Built Details

How a palette is compared, drawn and agreed before it is built, and the plaster, brick and stone details that came out of it.

What makes a room feel resolved is decided long before the first surface goes on.

Scope
Material selection, layout plans and wet-area detailing
Shown here
A concept board, a dimensioned floor plan and the built detail
Materials
Poured plaster, herringbone brick, solid stone, oak and brass
Furnished floor plan of a home with the shower rooms drawn in detail, bedrooms around them, an open kitchen and dining terrace, dimensions on every side and trees sketched outside

The plan settles the bathroom: shower, bench and door swing drawn to size before any fitting is chosen.

Top of a concept board: wood, stone and backsplash samples labeled by hand beside the room they were chosen for

The board: wood, stone and backsplash compared side by side for the room they were chosen for.

Detail panels from a concept board: a stone countertop edge over oak, a brass faucet above a steel sink, styled shelves and a pencil elevation of the millwork

The same board up close: a stone top over oak, a brass faucet and the elevation behind them.

The built detail: a floating plaster bench meets the brick with no baseboard and no trim.

We draw the junctions first, so what is left on site is assembly.
