Built-In Storage Above the Toilet | Illuminated Bathroom Niche

We combined an open dark-walnut shelf, an anthracite vanity with a Calacatta marble countertop, a fluted-panel feature wall and full-height walnut cabinetry in a contemporary Japandi composition. A vertical backlit capsule mirror, a glass-globe pendant, gold-detailed shower glazing and an olive tree in a stone planter give the bathroom refined spa calm and architectural richness.

We aimed to create a calming hotel-spa concept by balancing dark walnut with beige fluted panels and elegant marble. Full-height built-in storage and illuminated niches make use of the services area behind the toilet, while layered warm indirect lighting creates a timeless, refined bathroom experience.

Design Decisions That Transform the Space

This bathroom combines wabi-sabi with contemporary luxury. An anthracite/smoky lacquered floating drawer vanity, an open dark-walnut towel shelf below, a gold-veined Calacatta marble countertop and a circular marble vessel basin form the centrepiece. Full-height light-beige fluted timber panelling, a vertical LED-backlit capsule mirror, a glass-globe pendant with brass detailing and full-height walnut cabinetry behind the toilet bring restorative spa calm and a sophisticated architectural balance.

Material and Colour Balance

A matt anthracite/smoky two-drawer floating vanity supports a finely chamfered white Calacatta marble countertop with gold veins. A continuous open dark-walnut towel shelf below includes concealed LEDs.

A round marble vessel basin continues the veining of the countertop and pairs with a deck-mounted brushed matt-gold tap.

Light sand-beige vertical fluted timber wall panelling behind the basin adds depth, with a concealed ceiling LED strip at its upper edge.

A vertical capsule mirror with rounded corners has even warm 3000K LED backlighting.

A clear-glass globe pendant with a brushed brass socket hangs to the mirror’s right. An olive tree in a stone planter stands beside the vanity.

The concealed-cistern wall behind the toilet is clad in full-height dark-walnut compartment cabinetry, with enclosed storage above and a two-tier concealed LED-lit open niche in the centre.

The shower combines clear glass with gold/bronze frames, light-beige marble walls, a horizontal LED-lit shampoo niche and brushed-gold overhead and hand showers.

A white rimless wall-hung toilet, brushed-gold flush plate, brass bidet hose and round plush rug on seamless light-taupe microcement/ceramic flooring complete the bathroom.

Technical and Architectural Design

Vertical Emphasis and Layered Light: Indirect light behind the fluted panelling and around the capsule mirror highlights vertical lines and enhances perceived ceiling height.

Cabinetry Concealing Services: Full-height walnut storage integrates the concealed cistern’s service zone, turning it into both practical cabinetry and decorative display niches.

Natural Material Harmony: Elegant cool-veined marble, warm walnut veneer and the organic texture of the olive tree create a sense of sensory calm.
