The recent showroom extension at Leonide Interiors has put this progressive and dynamic company in a class of its own and created what can, quite literally, be described as ‘Bathroom Bliss’.
With 12 new stunning and innovative designs from Ambiance Bain, Pelipal, Dansani, Bagno Design and Geberit to complement the already-existing and constantly-changing expansive showroom, Leonide’s bathroom and shower offering is now second-to-none.
Delivering stunning collections at the forefront of contemporary chic, Leonide is very much at the pulse of cutting-edge technology and innovation, displaying the finest products from all over the world.
Beautifully presented with large format cementitious porcelain Italian tiles and ubiquitously-sourced technical natural stone products, some of the displays allow the imagination to run wild. The mind-blowingly realistic 3D floors are quite simply something to behold! The flooring incorporates angled images along with multiple translucent layers to achieve the incredible 3D effect. The result? Plants, animals, fish, coral, and even waves that look like they’re popping up from below!
Many of the displays boast PIR sensors which turn on the LED lighting and taps as soon as you walk in the bathroom. Exquisite brushed stainless steel and brushed nickel taps, shower valves and flush plates are also very much in vogue at the moment as is the addition of colour pizzazz with grey or vanilla grey.
Grey is the colour!
“Grey is very much ‘in’ at the moment,” says Leonide’s owner Paul Pearson.
“Some customers come in with a clear intention of selecting traditional bathroom colours such as beige or black and white, and very often end up choosing a more contemporary grey option.”
Innovative pre-formed tile backer board systems offer the perfect substrate for tiles and render finishes for walls and floors, and have been harnessed by Leonide Interiors to create five-star wet rooms. A rain-effect waterfall shower is the perfect complement for such rooms. This beautiful, futuristic shower head offers a luxurious rain-effect flow and is controlled using a concealed shower valve for a unique, relaxing experience.
Translucent stone creates magic!
Recently, an alternative approach to stone has developed for bathrooms that take advantage of some stones’ translucent abilities. Onyx and alabaster allow light to travel through them, providing the opportunity for a countertop or sink to literally shine.
The potential for using onyx is demonstrated by Leonide Interiors. Lights set under the counter and sink provide a soft glow that warms the space and creates a unique style. The special lighting can be connected to the standard bathroom lights so that they come on automatically, or they can have their own switch.
In addition to sourcing marble from all over the world, Paul’s attentions are gradually being diverted to locating onyx and alabaster. For customers who want a bathroom that stands out from the ordinary, a vessel sink in a beautiful translucent stone certainly presents a tantalising option.
The only limitation is the imagination!
Your vision can certainly be translated into reality at Leonide Interiors. Customers are encouraged to experiment with their palette and be inspired. Copper baths and basins offer a uniquely-stunning alternative to other more mainstream alternatives. With over 70 finishes available from verdigris to lustrous gold, and a kaleidoscope of enamel colours to choose from, dreams really can come true. Each and every bath and sink is meticulously hand-finished by master craftsmen to meet customers’ exact specifications and provide a perfect and original final product.
Alluring, bold vertical radiators
Anthracite vertical radiators are part of the exclusive designer range of column radiators available at Leonide Interiors. They add a bold, masculine sophistication to any bathroom space with the powdered anthracite finish adorning the vertical radiators in chic allure.
Ultra-stylish disabled-friendly bathrooms
Disabled-friendly bathrooms don’t have to compromise on style. This is emphatically the view of Paul and Yana Pearson and the rest of the staff at Leonide Interiors. The combination of high-end quality products complemented with innovative design has created a new internal benchmark for what a disabled bathroom should look like. The generic wording ‘disabled bathroom’ actually seems very much out of place here.
Bespoke bathrooms for all preferences
At Leonide Interiors, it is recognised that everyone has different needs and the professional staff are committed to working with each client, irrespective of design requirements or budget constraints, to create a bathroom solution that exceeds all expectations.
With ample, dedicated customer parking, the Leonide Interiors showroom is easily accessible. The atmosphere is relaxed and customers can browse in comfort at their leisure. There are no pushy sales people, just honest and knowledgeable advisors. The products are competitively priced and every conceivable taste, requirement, preference and budget can be readily catered for. MS
