ON MY RADAR THIS MONTH...
SHINING LIGHT
After years of lagging in the style stakes, bathroom lighting is thankfully out of the design doldrums. Take the new Alrik wall light from Där Lighting for instance – the mix of ribbed glass opal shade alongside matt black metalwork oozes art-deco style and works well to update any space.

GENTLE WAVES
The wave is the new stripe and the
Ric Rac collection by interior studio Samantha Todhunter Design for Bert & May sets the tone. Inspired by Spanish dancing skirts Samantha used to make as a child for school, the tile comes in two designs
– a border style and a diagonal look, both with an array of beautiful laying possibilities. The Ric Rac collection, from £7 per tile, bertandmay.com
SO VEIN
If you want to deep dive into the marble trend, get on board the new Cian bath finish by BC Designs. Made using handcrafted techniques, there’s the choice of any colour vein and even slight alterations to the marbling effect for a bespoke look. You want more? Well the tub is warm to the touch, scratch resistant and only 1550mm long so perfect for small spaces. Cian Bampton bath, £3,190, bcdesigns.co.uk
