Jack Fugaro wins the 2024 TIDA Australia Architect Bathroom Suite of the Year
Congratulations to Jack Fugaro, winner of the 2024 TIDA Australia Architect Bathroom Suite of the Year
The challenge in designing this suite was to give personality to a series of formal spaces contained within a single zone that also serves as a private retreat.
Accessed directly from the first floor stair lobby, the suite opens to a small kitchenette bench, giving a hotel-like experience on arrival.
This then leads into the generously sized bedroom with its quirky seating, and on to the separate his-and-hers walk-in-robes.
These have been individually finished to suit each owner’s tastes and fitted out with a personlised range of storage requirements.
Further in, the ensuite bathroom is sculptural in form, with refined detailing and a rich layered material palette of Verde Alpi marble, ribbed panelling and black hexagon mosaics
Brass-white Carrara marble tiles on the feature wall wrapping around the bath are also carried through to the floors.
Darker onyx, hand-made ribbed concrete vanity basins and a matching bath tub amplify the moody ambiance created within the bathroom.
The TIDA judges felt the end result was a skilful blend of tactile and textural finishes that provided a subtle background to complement and highlight the architectural features of the bath and vanity.
