Steal This Look: Ensuite Bath Alcove in a London Renovation
The latest project from London designers du jour Zoe Chan Eayrs and Merlin Eayrs is a six-floor townhouse on a corner lot in London’s Spitalfields called the Weavers House. While the project is a gut remodel, the Eayrs were sympathetic to the building’s history looking to its former residents, the Huguenots (French Protestants) for inspiration. So with layers of lime plaster and limed oak paneling, references to traditional Huguenots houses were built up and combined with the soft modern details the Eayrs are known for. In the ensuite bath, built into the upstairs alcove, creates a spa-like space in an otherwise blank corner. Here is a list of similar sources—freestanding bath, fixtures, and accents—to recreate the historical look.
