B-HOME | Treviso

The B-HOME project was born from the personal experience of Simona Nurcato, blogger and bathroom design consultant behind BesideBathrooms.com, who chose to document the renovation journey of her own 110 m² apartment with a terrace near Treviso. The architectural and interior design was handled by Carlotta Berta of unprogetto.com together with Francesca Grua of unadesignerpertutti.com

The main bathroom serves the sleeping area of the apartment and develops along a long, narrow floor plan whose functional division was entrusted to the choice of coverings rather than partition walls. Three zones follow one another along the space, all unified by the traditional 20×20 cm format: the shower niche, the half dedicated to the large cabinet and washbasin, and the zone reserved for the WC and bidet. In the first two zones the design works through light but precise contrasts, with black inserts, tortora tones and warm white that animate the surfaces; a dark mosaic accentuates the volume behind the washbasin. The third zone, housing the sanitaryware, is conceived instead as a neutral and relaxing space, with tiles and sanitaryware in the same cream tones throughout.

The Color Elements Creta range by GSI Ceramica proved the ideal design response: the wall-flush floor-mounted WC and bidet in a matt finish, coordinated with the semi-recessed washbasin from the same collection (which reads as a vessel sink while offering double the depth of a traditional basin), reinterpret in contemporary terms the colour of sanitaryware from past generations. The bathroom cabinet by Ideagroup carries vintage-inspired lines that engage with the cement-effect micro-pattern of the D_Segni series tiles by Marazzi. The taps are the Synth collection by Mina Rubinetterie in Deep Grey: a dark anthracite with intense bronze-leaning undertones, chosen as a chromatic link across all three bathroom zones.
