In partnership with House of Rohl
In the bathroom, visual and textural perceptions are heightened. The bathroom ritual is cleansing and reviving, its associated surfaces and colours rendered symbolic, synaesthetic and emotionally affecting. No longer restricted to the classic white-on-white palette, the colours we surround ourselves with as we bathe are influenced by the tonal palette of art, nature and contemporary architecture, carefully curated to take the bathroom to spa-like levels of indulgence and relaxation.
194 bathroom colours for indulgent spaces
Adhering to Le Corbusier’s notion that colour in architecture is just as powerful as layout and profile, Victoria + Albert’s palettes for House of Rohl products can be rendered in a choice of 194 RAL colours that span every mood.
Available in gloss or matte finishes, the colours personalise the exteriors of freestanding bathtubs and sinks, while classic and sober whites, greys and metallics can be given a new identity through colour, absorbing and reflecting existing tones and materials to create a new experience.
Europe’s premium colour matching system, RAL, defines colours for paint, coatings and plastics with coordinating hues that complement bathroom decor, or confidently lead the design principle via colour. Finishes are multi-layered using a special catalysed paint, and are hand-polished between applications for an unparalleled depth of colour and lustre.
More durable than hand-painted surfaces, more striking in impression, the colours of the Victoria + Albert collection by House of Rohl bring sensual luxury to its bathtubs and basins.
