Throw a CURVE

While minimalism will always have a place in the bathroom, the look has grown softer in recent seasons, with rounded-off shapes and raw textures replacing crisp edges and high-gloss surfaces. This goes not only for sanitaryware and fixtures, but for the very fabric of the space itself including walls and floors. Curves can be especially effective on dividing walls to usher a gentle flow from adjoining bedrooms or dressing rooms.

This bathroom niche was designed by Amsterdambased Framework Studio (framework.eu). Clayworks can create a similar wall treatment for a bathroom space for around £168 per sq m (clay-works.com)
