First on the renovating to-do list internally, the new family bathroom formed part of a self-contained front half of the house, temporarily sealed from the building works at the back, so the family could stay through the renovations. A walk-in shower and freestanding ‘Aura’ tub from Caroma stand up to tough family demands. Encaustic tiles from Tiles By Kate create a touch of drama, allowed to play hero while the rest of the room is kept to a combination of clean lines and simple hues. Victoria has introduced pops of colour via towels, fresh blooms and an artwork by artist Rakai Karaitiana.
