Family home in Copenhagen

Unidrain products were key in creating a totally new wellness space in an out-dated bathroom; the only one in the apartment in Frederiksberg close to Copenhagen; 12-square-metre and used every day by a family of four, which included two teenage boys – it was in dire need of an upgrade.

The flooring, walls, toilet, and shower had to be stripped out and replaced, it needed a complete transformation encompassing a new colour palette through to designer drains. The family wanted something that felt luxurious and spa-like but with longevity too.

The finished bathroom has high tech solutions such as a programable shower toilet and an anti-fog mirror, but, the undisputed star of the room is the elegant shower screen, GlassLine by Unidrain. Preserving the natural light from the window was a key part of the renovation so the GlassLine shower screen was ideal. It allowed the light to flow through the room helping to create an open, airy atmosphere.

The GlassLine shower screen with a black frame is 10mm of clear tempered glass, available in three sizes: 800mm. It is installed discreetly and securely without any visible display of fixings, screws, fittings, or joins.

The screen is lowered into a shower base located under the bathroom flooring, before being attached to the wall, creating a secure, stable, and watertight showering space. The black frame sits against the wall covering any edges generating a smooth finish, and the unseen groove-in-the-floor-flange meant that the installation of the colour co-ordinating black HighLine floor drain was both fast and efficient.

Colour was important for the overall look and style of the bathroom; the base tone was comprised of dark shades to induce a more luxurious feeling and add to the atmosphere, which combined well with the black frame of the GlassLine screen and the choice of black bathroom accessories from Undrains Reframe Collection including a shower shelf with magnetic wiper, towel hooks, toilet brush and toilet roll holder in black, creating perfect continuity.
