New contemporary bathroom renovation

We created classic, simple stylish bathrooms for our artistic clients in Glasgow's West End

The Challenge

The project consisted of the formation of an en-suite wet room, master bathroom and utility room. The clients were looking for an honest rustic design encompassing bevelled wall tiles, reclaimed timber and simple design statements. Andy and Hanneke, an artist and an architect, have a very well trained eye for both design and detailing and specifically chose nest as we would be able to meet their exacting requirements.

The Solution

Working collaboratively with the clients, we used Pinterest to develop ideas for classic, New York metropolitan styled bathrooms. The design we developed is bold, solid and classic – but with a twist.

We designed and hand built bespoke bathroom storage and shelving using distressed oak. Our electricians hand-crafted light fittings to create unique lights. Even our plumber pulled out the stops and crafted a bespoke copper towel rail which sits sculpturally within their bathroom. We spent hours deliberating over the exact shades of paint colours, taps, flush handles and tiles to meet the clients detailed specifications.

The Results

We surpassed Andy and Hanneke's expectations and created two beautifully unique bathrooms which they instantly fell in love with. Specification was of a very high standard and every part of the project conveys quality and craftsmanship.

When it came time for us to renovate our standard bathrooms to something more to our taste, we gave nest a plethora of ideas and inspirations we'd picked up on our travels.  

They executed them perfectly, capturing the essence of beautiful interiors with the practicalities of good design and a homely feel, and in keeping with the overall aesthetic of our property. Tiling, plumbing, electrical and woodwork were all done seamlessly by a great team under nest's direction, and they were an invaluable help in sourcing the special fixtures and fittings we'd requested. 

Even the inevitable snagging was minimal and completed quickly and efficiently, and we are now extremely happy with the quality of both design and building works. I would have no hesitation recommending nest."
