Located on one of the most prestigious estates in Weybridge, Surrey, is one such remarkable new-build residence, for which porcelain tiles and extra-large format slabs from the Minoli Contemporary Collections were selected for the elegant ensuite bathrooms and cloakroom, as well as premium porcelain paving for the stunning swimming pool surround.
The master bedroom accommodation spans the entire width of the rear of the property, with ‘his and hers’ bathrooms, each with generous adjoining dressing rooms. In the ensuite for the lady of the house, the floor features an almost seamless surface of Minoli Marvel Calacatta Delicato in an expansive120/120 format and meticulously matt finish. Emulating the most sought-after white Italian marble with authenticity, the soft, fine veining has an almost cloud-like composition, with pale grey and warmer-toned inclusions. The same tile design has been used in large format for the shower enclosure walls and to create matching skirting.
Also, within this room, creating a fabulous feature wall behind the lavatory and bidet,120/278 slabs of Cosmopolitan Arabescato Oro have been expertly installed to provide uninterrupted, floor to ceiling coverage. The more prominent, fiery golden veins complement the bronze brassware, including the floor stand tap for the opulent oval, freestanding bath.
In the gentleman’s ensuite, Marvel Calacatta Delicato has again be used for the floors and walls, but the shower area has been fitted to full height with Marvel Fior Di Bosco slabs, to echo the more masculine colourways of the vanity unit and fixtures. This strong and stunning porcelain stoneware, seen reflected in the mirror, replicates the prestigious Tuscan marble of its namesake, with glistening gold and striking white veining across a stormy, smoky background.
Downstairs in the cloakroom, the pristinely polished Lappato finish of Wanderlust Saint Laurent adorns the floor and frames a recessed vertical alcove, amplifying the light from the enlarged windows that this property enjoys throughout.
Moving to the delightfully designed swimming pool area, porcelain paving from Minoli’s 20 mm thickness product portfolio has been laid around the seating area and to the edges of the pool, with a bullnose finish. Here, in a 60/120 size, the Outdoor specification surface of Marvel Travertine White Vein provides grip but still affords complete comfort underfoot. The Vein Cut design has linear definition as the pattern runs through the length of the tile face, with creamy base colours and the irregular markings of natural stone.
The same floor tile choice extends into the charming changing room, where a coordinating 9mm thickness variant has also been used for the walls. Lastly, the matching Basketweave mosaic brings a tactile texture resembling intertwined bands to the side wall and shower enclosure.
