Ian Moore unveils a new era in bathroom design with “The Ian Moore Designer Bathroom Series”
Internationally renowned architect Ian Moore is proud to showcase his latest project “
The Ian Moore Designer Bathroom Series”, created in conjunction with leading Australian bathroom manufacturer Caroma Dorf.
The much anticipated
series by Ian Moore reflects his distinguished track record for producing the most stylish commercial and residential designs, incorporating an austere minimalist approach and utilising state‐of‐the‐art products by Caroma Dorf.
The
series comprises of five bathrooms designed to reflect typical situations including a Caroma luxury bathroom, a commercial bathroom, an apartment bathroom, a Fowler prestige bathroom and a care bathroom.
Speaking of his
collection, Ian Moore said, “The signature bathroom series for Caroma Dorf is a development of a bathroom system first designed over 20 years ago. The system has been constantly refined over that period in both single houses and a number of large scale residential apartment developments.”
Ian Moore’s overall design principle and inspiration for the bathroom series was to create a spatial expansion through the use of very efficient, uncluttered, space planning.
The clever use of wall hung vanities with under counter basins and concealed cistern toilet suites from the new
Caroma Invisi Series II® and
Fowler Icon Series II™ ranges allow the bathroom space to feel much larger. Combined with end walls of glass looking onto a framed view or landscaped courtyard, the space is further extended.
All materials utilised through the series are interchangeable without altering the basic detailing, and simple colours were added to result in a striking, uncomplicated look. The deliberate and precise use of mirrors and reflective surfaces counter any space constraints of the bathroom.
As in all of Ian’s architectural projects, there is no differentiation between the most luxurious and the most utilitarian. In terms of material and detail they all are treated equally, with scale being the only difference as Ian Moore explains.
“Each bathroom is part of a family, clearly related but with their own individual character. Similarly the Caroma Dorf products have been chosen so they can be matched with other product ranges designed by the company. For example, the
Caroma Cube toilet suite and
basin ranges can be used to compliment the
Caroma Liano tapware and
accessory range as they both feature square, rectangular forms.”
Ian continued, “Adequate storage was central in the desire to reduce visual clutter and a false wall has been created to conceal mirrored door cabinets above the basins and toilets, while also
concealing toilet cisterns and plumbing.
“There has always been a desire to use the largest prefabricated components in these bathrooms, from the mirrored cabinets, to the floor and wall panels, reflecting a precision in construction that is approaching the fitting and fixtures,” Moore added.
Caroma Dorf is proud to be the only Australian manufacturer of sanitaryware and offers a total
